Catch Basin Importance
The sole function of a storm catch basin or storm drain is to collect rainwater from properties and streets. Then, it transports the rainwater through a system of underground piping. Storm catch basins can be found along the curb of a parking lot or road or within a parking lot.
This is vital to maintaining a healthy and safe facility. Failure to look after the drainage system and catch basin can result in costly issues like backups and flooding. In addition to visible issues, an overflow of material in the basin can cause problems within the underground piping. An abundance of this material settling in the pipes will eventually cause separations in the joints which in time, can lead to collapsed sewer line.
These issues are avoidable though, as long as regular catch basin cleaning and inspections are done to ensure a routine maintenance.
Getting Your Schedule
PowerVac’s certified and trained technicians specialize in commercial and industrial catch basin cleaning. To prevent these issues, a visual inspection should be performed twice a year. Once in autumn, after the leaves have fallen; and in the spring, after all snow has melted.
This is the safest route, but maintenance should also take into account variables that may change the frequency of cleanings. Cleaning and maintenance variables will depend on the depth of the basin and how much material is collected within the basin. For instance, if your property is surrounded by trees, you might need your catch basins cleaned every fall season.
