Hybrid lifting stations
The lifting station is a tried and tested method to protect drainage points below the backwater level against backing up. It pumps the wastewater through a backwater loop, or directly back into the pipe down stream of the unit, which reliably prevents water from entering the house against the direction of flow. This ends the matter for many people when it comes to choosing a backwater protection system – although the right conditions are often met to save a large proportion of the electricity and maintenance costs with an environmentally friendly hybrid solution. Before you reach for a conventional lifting station, you should therefore check carefully whether your installation situation actually requires constant pump operation.
