Minimum one full service and one health check per year
-
3. High usage
Minimum two full services and two health checks
Note: Should your requirements fall between these levels (e.g a medium-high usage site may require 2 full services per year), our Platinum package will cover this!
Our full service on a pump station includes the checks below:
- Check operation of non-return valves
- Raise and clean pumps
- Check and clear blockages were possible
- Check mechanical seal for leaks
- Physical and operational check of control panel:
