Interceptor Maintenance & Servicing
Interceptors are underground tanks designed to collect wastewater and separate contaminants such as oils, fuels and sediments. Playing a vital role in pollution prevention and ensuring contaminants don’t enter sewage systems and nearby water courses, maintaining the efficient and compliant running of an interceptor with regular maintenance and servicing is crucial.

Why interceptor maintenance and servicing is crucial for your business
While interceptors are a first line of defence against contaminants entering waterways and sewage systems, if not properly maintained, they can cause unexpected and often costly issues such as overflowing, increasing pollution and spill risks. Regular interceptor maintenance is not only vital in ensuring pollution prevention and maintaining environmental compliance, but it also reduces the risks of drainage blockages, costly repairs and unexpected downtime, and improves on-site health and safety through eliminating foul odours and hazardous gases associated with poorly maintained tanks.

FAQs
Why does my interceptor need servicing?
Interceptors are an integral part of operations to ensure that water discharges do not cause pollution or exceed the limits of an effluent consent or license. Interceptor maintenance is essential in making sure your system runs efficiently and separates pollutants from the water effectively before discharging into drainage systems. Neglecting interceptor maintenance could cause pollution risks and compromise your organisation’s compliance with regulations.
What does a service involve?
An interceptor service is a full inspection and assessment of your tank. The separator and all parts will be inspected to identify any areas of damage or wear, and any associated electricals such as the separator management system will be checked to ensure efficient working, in addition to checking the depth and accumulation of oils and silt.
Following a physical inspection, GreenSpark will provide a detailed report of findings and any recommended actions to improve your interceptors efficiency and compliance.
How often does my interceptor need servicing?
Interceptor maintenance should be added to your regular planned preventative maintenance plan as part of responsible business management. Services can be every 3, 6 or 12 months, depending on specific site risks and findings from previous services.
