The frequency will depend upon the location and the environment, and should be based on local knowledge, but inspections should be carried out at least once a year.
Inspection routines are essential to maintain efficient performance of drainage channels and they should be carried out at frequent and regular intervals. The frequency of these is influenced by the length of the run and the length of commercial jetting hose. All lengths of Civils + Infrastructure channel runs should include silt capturing sump units and/or general access units. To clean the drain channel, cleaning kit options include an easy cleaning paddle, Flush FloTM System for frequent cleaning facilities.
