Piping and pipe care
The design, installation, and maintenance of vacuum system components, especially the piping, are central to performance and long-term reliability.
Clean, properly installed pipes help maintain stable vacuum levels, reduce wear and support efficient wastewater transport.
- Optimal installation
- Smart maintenance
- Maximum uptime
Optimal installation is key
Unlike conventional gravity drainage systems, vacuum systems use pressure differences to transport wastewater.
This makes pipe diameter, slope, routing and connections critical to system performance. Poor pipe alignment or design can cause flow restrictions, vacuum loss and unnecessary strain on system components. A well-planned installation is the foundation for stable, efficient operation.
Maintenance protects your system
Vacuum systems require regular preventive maintenance to maintain efficient, hygienic and reliable operation.
Even in well-designed systems, deposits can gradually accumulate inside pipes over time. Adjusting maintenance routines to the system’s usage, water quality, and design helps prevent issues before they impact operation.
Every system is unique
The conditions vary with each installation and so do the challenges.
Greywater lines may face grease and soap build-up, while blackwater systems are prone to mineral scaling. Factors such as temperature, water chemistry and usage patterns influence the type and extent of deposits that develop over time.
That’s why there’s no universal solution. Effective pipe care requires a tailored approach.
Biological cleaning
Selected microorganisms can help break down organic waste, fats and certain types of biofilm without relying on harsh cleaning chemicals.
Bacteria help maintain flow, reduce odour, and support overall system hygiene. However, more bacteria do not necessarily mean better results. Using the wrong strains can be ineffective or even counterproductive. The key is choosing a targeted microbial mix suited to your system and application.
Our products are designed to address specific challenges, from mineral deposits to the breakdown of fats and grease.
