Access Junctions, Pipes, Anti-Flood Gullies and Back Traps Overview

Core Features in Business Installations

Drainage systems in business properties require a set of specific features to deal website with liquids effectively. Components such as access junctions, access pipes, anti-flood gullies and back traps support reliability and long-term function.

Connecting Drainage Lines

Access junctions allow access for cleaning while linking multiple pipes. Installed at sensible points, they assist to detect blockages and deal with them quickly. In complex drainage layouts, they reduce the effort needed for system upkeep.

Access pipes are upright pipes giving inspection access into the network. Placed at set intervals, they allow blockages to be cleared without costly excavation. They also double as overflow points, reducing the risk of wastewater spilling inside commercial buildings.

Flood Defence

Anti-flood gullies stop surface water from overloading drains. Useful in areas of frequent rainfall, they stop backflow and ensure water moving into the system. This lowers potential damage, helps stop business downtime, and safeguards property and staff.

Preventing Wastewater Return

Back traps create a barrier that blocks wastewater moving in the wrong direction. Fitted at critical locations, they support hygiene, reduce odours, and avoid unsanitary conditions.
