MAINTENANCE
Comprehensive annual maintenance services, which include implementation as well as consultancy, are provided to ensure optimum results and long life of new and existing rainwater harvesting systems. Maintenance services are offered either as a standalone offer or as an Annual Maintenance Contract. Activities involved in maintenance are decided based on unique requirements of a rainwater harvesting system. If customer is capable of deploying his own labour and material then we can provide maintenance consultancy also.
Success of a rainwater harvesting system depends on its timely and proper maintenance. Like any other system, maintenance is an integral activity required to sustain, retain and improve the efficiency of a rainwater harvesting system. Ignoring this crucial aspect will lead to inefficient recharge & storage, contamination of groundwater & stored rainwater, wastage of rainwater as overflow, leakage problems which may pose damage to building, flooding of the premises, irreversible problems in rainwater harvesting system itself and significant reduction in life expectancy of the system. All these problems will make investment in rainwater harvesting null over a period of time and defeat the very purpose for which it has been implemented.
Maintenance Frequency
Once a year in the months of January to May* before onset of rainy season.
*This is the most suitable time period for maintenance of rainwater harvesting systems due to dry pits and no hindrance to work since there are no rains. We do not undertake maintenance work during rainy season (June to September).
