Core Features in Business Installations

Drainage systems in business properties require a set of specific features to deal with liquids here effectively. Components such as access junctions, access pipes, anti-flood gullies and back traps help maintain reliability and long-term function.

Connecting Drainage Lines

Access junctions allow access for cleaning while linking multiple pipes. Installed at sensible points, they assist to detect blockages and deal with them quickly. In complex drainage layouts, they reduce the effort needed for system upkeep.

Providing Access for Maintenance

Access pipes are upright pipes giving inspection access into the network. Placed at regular intervals, they allow blockages to be cleared without costly excavation. They also serve as emergency outlets, reducing the risk of wastewater overflowing inside commercial buildings.

Protecting Premises from Water

Anti-flood gullies protect surface water from overloading drains. Effective in areas of frequent rainfall, they prevent backflow and keep water moving into the system. This reduces potential damage, avoids business downtime, and shields property and staff.

Stopping Backflow

Back traps form a barrier that prevents wastewater moving in the wrong direction. Fitted at critical locations, they maintain hygiene, reduce odours, and stop unsanitary conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
