Changing Climate Suggests More Pros Than Cons for Preventative Catch Basin Cleaning

The effects of climate change on the lower mainland have become even more acute in the past couple of years. 

Rain events are becoming much more intense and drought has now become part of the conversation. If you are a property manager or you own a commercial property that has a surface drain or you own a property with underground parking with multiple catch basins, it’s now even more important that you weigh the pros and cons of implementing preventative catch basin maintenance.

 
 
PROS (Doing Regular Catch Basin Maintenance) 
– cost certainty
– uninterrupted facility use
– peace of mind during significant weather conditions
– happy customers or employees
 
CONS (Reacting to Catch Basin Back Ups and Blockages)
 
– unexpected costs due to emergency service
– lost parkade revenue
– disgruntled employees
– unhappy customers

Catch Basins in Underground Garages Could be a Problem in Waiting…

Out of sight, out of mind. This is always the case when it comes to cleaning drains and catch basins in your underground garage.  Debris may be lurking in your drains but not completely stop the flow of water.  One shift in the debris could be the difference between a catch basin back up resulting in the closure of your garage.

A Property manager with a parking lot or underground garage closing will mean lost parking revenue and inconvenienced customers. Depending on the blockage, water could rise and could find its way into cracks in the floor and walls, which could lead to costly repairs.

Regular scheduled maintenance on your below ground parking garage will prevent a disaster. EdenFlo Pump Truck Service offers one of the most diverse fleets of vacuum pump trucks including “Low Boy” vacuum trucks that are specifically designed to access underground space with low ceiling clearance.
