Maintenance & Service FAQs

Regular maintenance and servicing is vital to ensuring your pumping station has a long life - it guarantees that your equipment operates efficiently and is environmentally friendly, saving you money by preventing breakdowns and environmental damage.

Without regular care, you can experience the following issues:

• Tank overflow - Raw and untreated sewage spilling from your tank into the surrounding environment, leading to fines and expensive repairs/cleanup.
• Blockages - Toilets, sinks and showers may drain slowly or not at all and unpleasant smells can occur.
• Increased operating costs - Without maintenance your equipment will run less efficiently over time, leading to increased energy expenditure.
• Expensive repairs - Regular maintenance reduces the risk of larger issues occurring because they are identified and dealt with before they can develop.

A Pump Maintenance Package (or pump service agreement) is a contract between T-T Service and you to keep your sewage pump station (and other fluid management equipment) in optimal working condition.

T-T's Pump Maintenance Packages are available in three levels that feature different support services, such as pump replacement and 24/7 pump monitoring.

Comprehensive servicing, service reports and priority breakdown attendance are included with all packages as standard - with bespoke pump maintenance packages available to best suit the needs of your equipment and site.

The term pump service covers the installation, comissioning, repair and long-term maintenance of a pump. T-T Service undertakes pump repairs and pump maintenance both on-site and in our fully equipped workshop at T-T HQ in Cheshire.

These services can be accessed on a case-by-case basis or as part of our Pump Maintenance Packages, which include scheduled yearly maintenance visits and priority breakdown attendance.

T-T Service offers three Pump Maintenance Package levels, each of which comes with:

• Scheduled servicing and comprehensive reports
• Access to T-T's workshop for quotations, repairs and replacements
• Priority breakdown attendance

This depends on the application, normal sewage pumping stations we would expect a six monthly service to be adequate. However, this may change depending on  demand on the pumping station.
