Where's the Oily Water and Sludge?
How an oil-water separator works
Old-school oil water separators
An underground tank with an inlet, an outlet and nothing in between.
Oil floats, sludge settles, and if nobody pumps it out, both eventually go out the outlet pipe and down the sewer, along with backed-up floor drains and that unmistakable smell.
When oil gets past the separator, it's your sewer district that notices.
Modern separators and your sewer district
Underflow baffles, parallel-plate and petro-screen coalescers, wear plates and sludge baffles all speed up separation, but they still need regular cleaning.
When oil gets past the separator, it's your sewer district that notices.
How our oil-water separator cleaning process works
FREE ESTIMATE
Our oil-water separator cleaning process starts with a free estimate. We get out the "sludge judge" and inspect your OWS system. We measure the oil, water and sludge. We take a grab-sample for the lab to test and produce documented proof the sludge is non-hazardous.
Next, you get an estimate. Since we've inspected and measured your system, assuming we complete the service within 14 days, we stick by our estimate. Guaranteed. No hidden fees. No B.S.
As grandpa used to say, "measure twice, cut once."
Promise Window
Once you've OK'd our estimate, we'll pick the service day & time (promise window) that works best for your operations. We'll call you the day before to make sure you're all set for us to arrive next day.
Our crew will show up within the promise window.
For safety & speed, we work in two-person crews
During service, we'll inspect your tank walls and inlet and outlet pipes. Before we close the system, we'll ask you to inspect the job with us and review operating best practices until the next service.
