Why Tricel Treatment Plant Servicing Is Essential

Tricel sewage treatment plants (including the Tricel Novo range) are among the most reliable systems on the market — but like all treatment plants, they must be serviced annually to operate safely and compliantly.

Regular servicing prevents breakdowns, protects the environment, and ensures your plant continues to meet the 2020 General Binding Rules and Environment Agency discharge standards. A neglected Tricel system can suffer from blower issues, sludge build-up, aeration problems, and even full system failure.

Benefits of Regular Tricel Servicing

  • Ensures full compliance with UK environmental regulations.
  • Extends the lifespan of your treatment plant.
  • Improves performance and optimises effluent quality.
  • Reduces running costs by avoiding major repair issues.
  • Prevents odours, noise, and blockages from developing.

With over 30 years of experience in wastewater management, Clearmasters provide professional, reliable servicing for the full Tricel range — keeping your system running as efficiently as the day it was installed.

Signs Your Tricel System Needs Servicing

  • Unusual noises from the blower or compressor.
  • Bad odours around the tank or discharge point.
  • High sludge levels or poor effluent quality.
  • Alarms or warning lights triggered.
  • Surface bubbling or flow irregularities inside the tank.
  • Water backing up into drains or toilets.

If you notice any of these symptoms, your Tricel system may need urgent attention. Our engineers are available for rapid call-outs across the South East.
