Understanding Pump Stations and Wet Wells
Pump stations (or wet wells) play a crucial role in wastewater management by collecting and moving sewage from buildings to treatment facilities, especially where gravity flow isn’t feasible. Here’s a quick overview:
What is a pump station? A pump station is a large tank (wet well) that serves as a collection point for sewage, moving it from one location to another.
How Does a Pump Station Work? When sewage in the wet well reaches a certain level, the pump activates, pressurising the waste so it flows either to the main sewer or directly to the treatment plant.
Why Clean Wet Wells and Pump Stations? Regular cleaning prevents heavy waste build-up, which can block pumps and lead to overflowing manholes and environmental hazards.
Routine Pump Station Maintenance
Routine cleaning and maintenance of pump stations and wet wells are essential to prevent blockages, equipment failure, and overflows – issues that pose serious environmental and health risks. Over time, debris and waste naturally accumulate, which can lead to costly failures and unexpected repairs. McBreen Enviro UK’s team offers:
High-powered jet vac cleaning to remove sludge, silt, and waste.
Confined space entry for thorough internal cleaning where required.
Waste tankering services to safely dispose of collected waste materials.
