Drains transfer wastewater to sewage systems. Whether it’s a residential or industrial drainage system, problems occur when substances like industrial waste, plant matter, and sanitary waste clog the system. Regular drainage maintenance inspections help discover these potential problems and ensure that drains are kept in good working condition. Let’s briefly look at some highlights of drainage maintenance inspections.
- What do typical drainage maintenance inspections include?
- Why are these inspections so crucial for community residents’ safety and well-being?
- How does Fielda help inspectors collect and manage data more efficiently during these inspections?
What do typical drainage maintenance inspections include:
These checklists contain basic information about the drainage pipes, their size, location, owner details, and if there are specific problems to be addressed, such as blocks, leaks, flooding, etc. They also include specifics about the problem’s cause, the blockage material’s nature, the block’s impact, and what action is to be taken. The report also identifies whether the issue being logged is a recurring problem or not so that appropriate action can be taken.
Why these inspections are so necessary for safety and well-being:
Drainage maintenance inspections are required regularly to ensure problems are spotted early and remedial measures can be taken before issues escalate into a crisis. A flooding drainage area can pose practical difficulties, inconvenience, and potential health problems to the people in the vicinity of the stagnating water. Leaks, cracks, and corrosion are identified, and maintenance work is initiated to avoid more expensive major repairs later.
How does Fielda help inspectors collect and manage data more efficiently:
Drainage maintenance inspections involve gathering details and, typically, data captured by cameras used during these surveys. Photos and videos help inspectors document the exact nature of the problem, highlight a specific point in the drainage system that needs attention, and add supplementary notes for technicians conducting repairs and maintenance work. Fielda transforms this entire process with easy, customizable digital checklists and instant photo and video uploads at one go. This data, once captured, is instantly available to operational teams for review and action.
