Sewer Drainage System Preparation Before the Rainy Season

A Sewer System is consisting of interconnected pipelines carrying sewage. The wastewaters from residential, commercial, industrial and storm waters flow through the pipelines going to the treatment facility. Homeowners and business owners are responsible for the installation, repair and maintenance of your own sewer connection point. Once there is a leak and clog in your pipe line, it is your obligation to fix the issue.
The three types of Sewer System:
·         Combined Sewer System – is a centralized pipe that collects the wastewater and rain water. The excess water will be directed to the overflow structure.
·         Separated Sewer System – is consist of two different pipes to separate the wastewater from rain water or storm water. The sanitary sewer pipeline is where the wastewater flows while the rain water runs on the storm sewer pipeline. Both pipelines reach the treatment facility for water refinement.
·         Partially Separate Sewer System - merges the advantages of separate and combine sewer system.
When your sewer pipes are clogged, it will complicate the issue once the heavy rains come. Rain water increases the ground water and will penetrate your pipes  to cause incorrect water flow to the sewer main. Flooding in your home or establishment, driveways and surrounding areas may happen because of faulty pipes. What maintenance needed for Sewer Drainage System before rainy season? Maintenance is essential to keep your sewer system always working. This will guarantee awareness about your residential or commercial pipeline status. Professional technicians undergo an inspection in your sewer drain lines or pipes in your home, commercial establishment and industrial. They will clean your sewer lines and storm drains. Other applicable things they will do such as pump the pipe to be unclogged, repair, replacement of faulty pipe and others.
