Backwater Protection and Wastewater Lifting Systems in Mainz

Questions and answers
Do you still have questions
about Backwater protection in Mainz?
What are the advantages of a lifting system in Mainz?
A lifting unit is used to pump wastewater from lower parts of the building, such as rooms with basements, above the backwater level. In Mainz, where many buildings are older and possibly not designed for modern wastewater requirements, a lifting unit offers the advantage of ensuring the safe removal of wastewater and counteracting backwater problems.
How do I know if I need a backflow preventer?
Whether you need backflow protection depends on various factors, such as the location of your building and the height of the sewer system compared to your basement or other lower-lying rooms. It is advisable to seek advice from a specialist company to determine whether backflow protection is necessary in your structural situation.
What maintenance measures are required for lifting systems in Mainz?
Lifting systems in Mainz require regular maintenance to ensure their functionality. This includes checking pumps, cleaning backwater valves and testing the entire system. Regular maintenance helps to prevent breakdowns and extend the service life of the system.
