Preventative Maintenance for Businesses

Proactive Care for Drain, Septic, Grease Traps, & More

Preventative maintenance is the best defense your business has against future problems. The best way to avoid backups, clogs, overflows, or breakages is to prevent them from occurring in the first place. Wind River Environmental understands what a business or commercial property needs to have a sound and effective preventative maintenance program.

Whether it's a DrainMaster Drain Systems, yearly jetting, a full inspection, or pumping your non-hazardous liquid waste systems, our licensed and insured technicians will suggest a commercial preventative maintenance plan that meets your needs and promotes the health of your septic system, interior lines, and grease traps and tanks!

Maintenance Matters for Healthy Plumbing Systems

The biggest advantage of preventative maintenance is the ability to catch potential issues before they become major problems. With regular inspections and tune-ups, our technicians can identify and address any minor issues before they become bigger issues like:

  • Sewage overflows, resulting in hazards for staff and customers
  • Leaks and clogs that can lead to costly repairs or replacements
  • Plumbing system breakdowns causing unexpected downtime and revenue loss
  • Unpleasant odors and unsanitary conditions due to buildup in grease traps or septic tanks

Don't wait for these issues to arise – be proactive and prevent them with a preventative commercial maintenance plan from Wind River Environmental!

When to Schedule Commercial Septic Maintenance

While every septic system component requires different service intervals depending on factors such as usage, system size, and local regulations, there are some general guidelines you can follow:

  • Pump septic tanks every 2-5 years or more frequently for larger businesses with heavy usage
  • Clean grease traps every 1-3 months, depending on the amount of FOG produced
  • Schedule professional drain cleaning annually or more often if you notice slow drains
  • Have drain fields inspected annually and cleaned out every 5-10 years, depending on usage
  • Install effluent filters and have them cleaned every 6-12 months to prevent drain field clogs
