Pump Stations Vs Wet Wipes

According to the latest study, 9/10 sewer blockages are caused by flushed wet wipes.

So if pump stations and wet wipes were two people you could place in a boxing ring – who would ultimately win? One stands large and strong, the other a humble softie, so the outcome seems inevitable… right?

It’s time to find out who wins the final round…

Perhaps unexpectedly, it’s a tough fight between the wet wipe and the pump station. However, with regular maintenance and periodic cleaning, an expertly specified pump station can stand up to this deceptively problematic opponent and prevent constant blockages and costly breakdowns. The simple answer to avoid this confrontation altogether? Don’t flush wet wipes and ensure your system is up for the challenge!
