What is a Catch Pit?
A catch pit is a device that prevents debris, such as litter and leaves, from entering pipes. They are essential for minimising blockages in stormwater drains. While they’re effective at keeping out larger debris, they also collect fine sediments that can settle at the bottom of the sump.
Importance of Catch Pit Maintenance
Regular catch pit and sump pump maintenance is crucial to preventing a variety of issues during periods of excessive rain. There are many consequences of neglecting cleaning, such as:
- Flooding during excessive raining
- Property damage
- Potential health hazards
- Contamination of water sources
