Cold weather can wreak havoc on water pumps, pipework and foul pump stations. If water freezes inside the system, it can cause a range of problems, such as cracks and seal damage. Consequently, it’s important to take steps to prevent ice from forming in the system. We recommend the following maintenance before winter sets in:
As part of pre-winter water pump servicing, check over pipes for any leaks or damage, and arrange water pump repairs if required. Insulate exposed pipes with lagging to protect them from freezing.
Run the pump under normal load to ensure it reaches full operational pressure. Listen for unusual noises and contact our pump maintenance company in Southampton if you suspect any issues. Our water pump engineers provide repairs and new water pump installations.
It’s worth scheduling a system clean before winter to remove debris and check for blockages that could freeze and cause overflows.
Protect control panels, switches and wiring from damp and frost to prevent malfunctions and safety issues.
Pumps often have to work harder in summer, especially in busy commercial environments. This increase in demand often highlights system weaknesses and can cause more wear, resulting in the need for water pump repairs or water pump replacements. To keep water pumps, storm pumping stations, sewage pumping stations, borehole pumps and other systems running optimally, we recommend the following summer checks for clients in Southampton and the surrounding areas:
Schedule extra water pump servicing visits during peak months. Our pump maintenance company is adept at dealing with seasonal demand and can provide quick water pump installations and repairs where needed.
Inspect pressure sensors and ensure pumps are cycling correctly. Clean strainers and filters to maintain water flow.
Warm weather can accelerate odour problems and bacterial growth. To prevent unpleasant smells and potential health concerns, schedule extra servicing.
If your system has a cooling fan or vent, make sure it’s clear of dust and debris. Our water pump engineers also advise keeping plant rooms well-ventilated to prevent overheating.
