As winter approaches, it’s crucial for facilities management personnel to ensure that essential above- and below-ground assets across their sites are in top condition. Without proper maintenance, assets like commercial treatment plants, separators, pump stations, and rainwater harvesters may be at risk during the colder months, potentially leading to costly repairs, system downtime, or worse—environmental pollution. Now is the time to get winter-ready by scheduling necessary servicing and inspections for your vital systems.
Preventative maintenance is essential for sustaining uninterrupted operations during winter, when freezing temperatures and increased rainfall can put significant stress on your assets. If separators or commercial treatment plants are left without servicing, they can quickly become overwhelmed by winter conditions. The risk of breakdowns increases, potentially leading to leaks, overflow, and pollution if issues go unresolved.
Similarly, pump stations and rainwater harvesters are particularly vulnerable to freezing, which may impair their functionality and lead to unplanned downtime. No one wants the pipes in their pump station to freeze as this can cause blockages, burst pipes, or even flooding.
Installing an alarm system like the SmartServ Pro II provides an extra layer of security for your assets. The SmartServ Pro II monitors your assets 24/7, alerting you immediately in the event of any breakdowns. With this remote asset monitoring solution, facilities managers can respond swiftly to problems, minimizing the risk of damage before issues escalate. This proactive approach can be the difference between a minor fix and a major operational setback.
