Storm System Maintanence
Equipment
We use a high-powered vacuum to remove sediment and debris from storm sewer systems. This device has a pressure washer on it that is used to agitate the material and clean the concrete structure off when it is clean
Why do we do it?
This process is important to maintaining a high volume of flow through storm sewer systems. This prevents backups and floods in your parking lot.
Best Practice
The best method to maintain optimal conditions Is to be scheduled for twice yearly, or quarterly cleaning. This depends on the level of sediment that makes its way into the storm grates.
