PPM To Avoid Downtime:
To address this, in collaboration with facilities management providers, we urge businesses across the UK to invest in pre- planned maintenance to keep their premises fully operational. Pre-planned maintenance involves routine drainage and pump maintenance, scheduled at intervals convenient for businesses and customers. This preventative measure can help prevent scale or grease buildup in pipework, which could otherwise cause foul smells, waste overflow, and emergency callouts. Ultimately, PPM aims to drive cost savings and enhance operational efficiencies.
Typically, a PPM schedule covers drain and pipework cleaning, high-pressure water jetting, gully and gutter clearance, urinal descaling, grease trap emptying, interceptor maintenance, and more. It can be tailored to your site, requirements and budgets and we would recommend a visit
from a drainage engineer
every six to twelve months, depending on facility usage and site conditions.
Pollution Prevention:
Another advantage of pre-planned maintenance is pollution prevention, a priority for 72% of respondents. A well-executed drain maintenance plan can help with proper waste disposal, such as routine grease collection from grease traps and maintenance of petrol interceptors to prevent blockages and safeguard watercourses. A CCTV drain survey can also be used to detect cracks, leaks, and damage, facilitating early action and reducing repair costs. Moreover, they identify misconnections or leakage of contaminated waste, contributing to a cleaner environment. These maintenance practices ensure compliance with legislation and environmental protection.
In the face of numerous challenges, businesses should not overlook the risk of drainage-related downtime. Proactive investment in drainage plans and proper waste disposal practices can mitigate operational downtime, safeguard the bottom line, and prevent pollution.
