Planned Preventative Maintenance (PPM)
Keep your systems running smoothly with our Planned Preventative Maintenance (PPM) service, designed to minimise downtime and extend the life of your pumps and pump stations. Regular maintenance not only prevents unexpected breakdowns but also ensures your equipment is operating at peak efficiency. Your first step is to book in a free comprehensive site survey. Our qualified engineers will assess the layout, pump and drainage needs, and any potential challenges specific to your environment.
Sustainability
Enhanced Energy Efficiency: Regular maintenance, including cleaning and calibration, ensures pumps operate at peak efficiency. A PPM programme minimises energy loss and reduces the pump’s power requirements. Engineers can also advise on whether a site would benefit from reduced energy costs if variable speed drives or inverters were installed.
Inverter Driven/Variable Speed Pumps
Smart Control with Inverters: Inverters enable precise control of pump speeds, either manually or automatically, based on system demand. This flexibility allows for significant energy savings and operational efficiencies.
Complete Pump Maintenance, plus:
Booster Sets and Pressurisation Units
Given the essential role of booster sets, regular servicing is highly recommended. Regular maintenance not only helps avoid disruptions to critical systems —which could otherwise force a business closure — but also ensures compliance with health, safety, and insurance requirements, safeguarding both clients and employees.
Wastewater pump stations
We maintain wastewater pump stations by inspecting and testing components, including pumps, valves, control panels, and alarms, to ensure efficient operation. Regular cleaning and de-silting are performed to prevent blockages, while any worn parts are replaced to maintain reliability and avoid downtime.
HVAC Circulator Pumps, Fans & Motors
HVAC circulator pumps, fans, and motors are maintained by inspecting, cleaning, and lubricating all moving parts to ensure efficient performance and prevent breakdowns. Our service includes checking electrical connections, adjusting settings, and replacing worn components to optimise energy efficiency and prolong equipment life.
Remote Monitoring
We maintain state-of-the-art pump station monitoring and telemetry systems by regularly updating software, testing sensors, and calibrating equipment to ensure accurate, real-time data. This proactive maintenance allows for early detection of issues, helping to optimise performance and reduce the risk of system failures.
Complete pump maintenance
Including refurbishment and re-installation of industrial pumps for heating, cooling, sewage, drainage and chemical.
PPM FAQ'S
A guide to some of the most commonly asked questions around appropriate maintenance of your pump systems.
How often should a pump be maintained?
This depends on the type of pump, its criticality to site operations, and the intensity of its use. For most pumps (including waste water, clean water and circulation), maintenance should be carried out on a 6-monthly basis. For more site-critical units, we would recommend quarterly visits.
What happens if I don't carry out PPM on a pump?
The costs of not carrying out PPM can be very significant. A PPM inspection can detect problems with pumps (including vibration, component faults, and deterioriation) which, if not remedied, will lead to failure. If pumps fail, there can be a loss of water to your building, loss of heating or air conditioning, or flooding as waste water is unable to flow away from site.
What are the costs of a PPM regime?
Costs depend on the nature of the site, but are typically low (three-figure rather than four) for a standard site. Please get in touch with our team and we will be able to provide you with a quotation.
