Pump Cleaning and Maintenance in Bergamo
Lifting pumps, or submersible electric pumps, are essential devices for all buildings with spaces (such as garages, cellars, basements, or warehouses) located below the sewer level. Their job is to force wastewater upward, feeding it into the main sewer system. A blockage or malfunction is more than just an inconvenience: it can cause wastewater flooding with serious health and economic damage.
Franchini Servizi Ecologici offers a specialized cleaning and maintenance service for septic tanks and lifting pumps in Bergamo, guaranteeing rapid and effective interventions.
Why is Pump Maintenance Vital?
An efficient lifting station is a guarantee of safety. Regular maintenance is crucial for:
- Preventing Disastrous Flooding: The most common cause of flooding in basements is the failure of the lift pump due to blockages.
- Avoiding Costly Pump Damage: Solid debris, towels, or fibrous materials can block the impeller and burn out the pump motor, requiring costly replacement.
- Ensuring Hygiene and Healthiness of the Environment: A backflow of sewage into a closed environment creates a serious health risk.
- Ensuring the Correct Functioning of the Float Switches: Periodic cleaning ensures that the float switches, which activate the pump, can move freely and function properly.
Our Cleaning and Inspection Service: A Complete Intervention
Our service is not limited to emptying, but also includes a complete inspection of the system.
- Safety Check: Before any operation, we secure the area and the electrical system.
- Emptying and Suction: We completely vacuum the sewage and sludge present in the sump using our vacuum trucks.
- Cleaning of the Compartment and Pump: We thoroughly wash the compartment and the pump itself with high-pressure jets, removing any sediment and encrustations.
- Functional Check: We visually check the condition of the pump, the freedom of movement of the impeller, and the correct functioning of the control floats.
- Regulatory Disposal: The vacuumed waste is transported and disposed of at authorized facilities, with the issuance of the required form (FIR).
