Core Features in Business Installations
Drainage systems in business properties require a set of specific features to manage flow effectively. Components such as access junctions, access pipes, anti-flood gullies and back traps help maintain reliability and long-term function.
Joining Pipework
Access junctions provide access for maintenance while linking multiple pipes. Installed at planned points, they make it easier to find blockages and remove them quickly. In extensive 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 set intervals, they make blockages to be cleared without major works. They also serve as emergency outlets, reducing the risk of wastewater escaping inside commercial buildings.
Reducing Flood Risk
Anti-flood gullies block surface water from overloading drains. Ideal in areas of frequent rainfall, they stop backflow and maintain water moving into the system. This lowers potential damage, helps stop business downtime, and protects property and staff.
Maintaining One-Way Flow
Back traps create a barrier that stops wastewater moving in the wrong direction. Fitted at important locations, they help with hygiene, control odours, and avoid unsanitary conditions.
