How Often Should Lift Stations Be Serviced?

Wet wall cleaning is typically recommended every four years for residential customers and every year for commercial customers. This cleaning helps prevent the buildup of grease and solids that can damage your pump. In addition to cleaning, lift station inspections and the performance of regular preventative lift station maintenance are essential to helping reduce costs and increasing the lifespan and reliability of your equipment. Inspections will help ensure the proper functioning of the various components of your lift station, while regular maintenance can save you from having to make costly repairs in the future.
