Sewers for Adoption (SFA)
The basic principles of Sewers for Adoption (SFA) is to ensure that all new pumping stations built within our sewer network are to a required standard and quality. Adoption is usually achieved through working with the local water authority to ensure the build and quality is compliant with their individual standards.
At Pump Supplies we can offer a complete service to ensure the pumping station being built or upgraded not only meets the latest SFA specifications but also meets the local water authority requirement.
We work closely with many large housebuilders and local developers to supply the most cost effective pump station solution, whilst providing full electrical and mechanical installation support and aftermarket servicing.
Pump Station Design
A critical success factor when installing a new pump station is in the early design stages. Well designed, a pump station would provide a reliable and cost effective solution taking into account critical factors such as sump design for minimum solids retention whilst allowing for the best possible inlet and flow conditions.
Each pumping station is different, selecting the right station size along with the best pumps for application is crucial and we can assist through each stage of the design process.
We’ve been specialists in submersible pumps since 1982, so our highly skilled teams of engineers can help and advise on the best possible design and end solution for your pumping station.
Equipment Supply
Traditional concrete ring or pre-cast concrete stations are often used for new developments which require a pumping solution to return wastewater back to the main sewer network. Our skill and experience surrounds specifying, supplying, installing and commissioning the pumping equipment required, including:
- Pumps from a range of manufacturers
- Guide rails and discharge connections
- Pipework
- Valves
- Level regulators
