MAGNAN CAR WASH SUMP SERVICE

Magnan Vac Truck Service offers car wash sump services in Edmonton to help preserve and maintain your water systems.

Our Car Wash Sump Services

Car wash sumps have many parts that go into draining water and keeping sediment at bay. Parts include the well, the catch basins and the drains. Each of these parts will need to be cleaned and maintained on a regular basis so that no unwanted particles make it into the drain system, which could lead to expensive plumbing repairs from clogged pipes.

Over time, sediment can get into wells and build up on the bottom to prevent proper draining. If your car wash sump isn’t draining, Magnan Vac Truck Service can clean out the contents and jet the lines and ensure it is flowing properly.

Our car wash sump cleaning process stops sediments and grit from reaching the pump. This prevents the buildup on the bottom of your tank, which maintains a larger sized well and prevents flooding and overflowing.

If your parking lot is flooding, or if you are uncertain of the last time your catch basins were serviced, contact us so we can assess the situation and develop of plan of action to solve the problem.

Metals from rust, used oil and even anti-freeze are often present in the waste, but they’re rarely at levels high enough to be considered hazardous. Hydrocarbons, which are found in gasoline, oil and grease, more often do render the waste hazardous. Because of this, car wash sump waste must be recycled or disposed of at an approved waste management facility.

When you call Magnan Vac Truck Service, we can handle the disposal process for you. Our team will pump the sludge from you system into filter bags that will allow the cleaner water to flow free into the sewer while removing the potentially harmful sludge. We let the bags dry out then dispose of them in approved waste management facilities so you don’t have to.
