Autumn is the best time to fix the pipelines – why should you start biological maintenance right now?
At the end of the summer vacations, real estate returns to normal everyday life. Restaurants, hotels, shopping centers, condominiums and other properties are once again filled with people, and at the same time attention is often drawn to problems that have slowly developed during the summer.
There is an unpleasant smell coming from the drain. The pipes are draining more slowly than usual. Grease separation There are worrying signs coming from the drain or drain flies are reappearing in the kitchen.
These are usually not isolated problems, but signs that organic waste has accumulated in the pipeline, which impairs the functioning of the entire system. The good news is that problems can be addressed before they cause blockages, extra service visits or expensive repairs.
Plumbing problems don’t go away on their own.
Grease, oils, food waste and other organic matter constantly accumulate on the inner surface of the pipeline. Over time, the accumulations grow, the flow of the pipe weakens, and at the same time, an ideal growth environment is created for odor-causing bacteria and drain flies.
Many try to solve the situation by opening the blockage or using strong chemicals. They can temporarily relieve the symptoms, but they do not remove the actual cause of the problem: waste accumulations that have formed inside the pipeline over the years.
That’s why more and more properties are switching to proactive plumbing maintenance instead of fixing problems when they occur.
SmartPipe’s pipeline maintenance service solves the root cause of the problem
SmartPipe’s biological pipeline maintenance service is based on natural microbial technology. Using a dosing device, precisely selected microorganisms are dosed into the pipeline, which use organic waste as food and break it down.
With the service, the property can get rid of, for example:
- from odors
- from repeated blockages
- from poorly draining sewers
- from drain flies and other insects
- from grease trap odors and hardening of grease.
The service is not based on a one-time cleaning, but on continuous maintenance that keeps the pipeline in working order and free from disturbances in the future as well.
Our service works without any extra work for the customer
Our pipeline maintenance service is designed to be as effortless as possible.
It all starts with the mapping of the property. Our expert assesses the situation of the pipeline, if necessary, describes the problem areas and prepares a treatment plan tailored to the site. After this, the Dosing devices are installed in the right places.
Maintenance is not the customer’s responsibility. Our service technicians visit the site regularly to change the maintenance agent canisters, check the operation of the system and monitor the progress of the treatment. The customer also receives reports and, if necessary, further action recommendations.
Benefits are visible quickly – effects last long
In many locations, the first changes can be noticed in just a few weeks. Odors are reduced and drains start to drain better. When the biological treatment continues, waste accumulations in the pipeline also decrease, which reduces the risk of blockages and complicates the living conditions of drain flies. Biological maintenance requires more time than using chemical solvents, but is a safe and permanent way to get rid of plumbing problems.
In the long term, biological pipeline maintenance can:
- extend the emptying intervals of grease traps
- reduce opening and maintenance costs
- extend the service life of the pipeline
- reduce the need for harsh chemicals
- support the property’s sustainability goals.
Autumn is the right time to start
In autumn, the occupancy rate of properties will increase again. Then the load on the pipeline also increases, and the problems that developed during the summer often become visible.
The sooner biological pipeline maintenance is started, the faster the condition of the pipeline starts to improve.
Since 2017, SmartPipe has already helped hundreds of properties and ships solve problems related to pipeline odors, blockages and insects using biological maintenance. Our solution is suitable, for example, for restaurants, professional kitchens, hotels, housing associations, commercial properties, shopping centers, industry and maritime industry sites.
