A professional lifting station in Oftersheim is the ideal solution for the safe drainage of wastewater from lower-lying areas such as granny flats or basement rooms. In combination with high-quality backflow prevention, this creates a reliable system that ensures hygiene, safety and comfort in everyday life.

Depending on your needs, there are various system types to choose from, including:

  • Lifting stations for sanitary facilities or kitchens
  • Lifting stations for single-family homes
  • Flood protection for basements

Automatic operation ensures a constant flow of water, even if the drainage is below the backflow level, so that sanitary facilities can be used without restriction, regardless of external influences such as heavy rainfall.

As your reliable service partner, we offer professional planning, installation and maintenance to ensure that your system functions reliably in the long term. With high-quality backflow protection, you gain security and increase the value of your property at the same time. Costs vary depending on the building and requirements. Our experts will advise you individually to find the optimal solution for your specific situation.

backwater protection and wastewater lifting systems in oftersheim

Why is backflow protection important?

Despite efficient sewer networks, heavy rainfall or blockages can lead to a back-up in the drainage pipe. Low-lying rooms such as cellars or basement apartments are particularly affected. Without suitable protection, there is a risk of water entering through floor drains, toilets or washing machine connections. Professional backflow protection for wastewater – ideally in combination with timely pipe renovation – ensures that your property remains permanently protected.

The following video illustrates the consequences of heavy rainfall without backflow protection and explains and shows what measures can be taken to prevent flooding and backwater.

What is backwater?

The term describes a situation that occurs when more wastewater is temporarily entering into the sewer system than it can “swallow”, e.g. due to heavy rainfall. The wastewater then rises within the sewer system and inexorably escapes wherever it can – i.e. from manhole covers, yard drains, in your cellar and, in the worst case, in your toilet.

What is the backwater level?

The backwater level is the highest level to which the water level in a drainage system can rise. Drainage points that lie below this level must be secured against backwater. In general, the backwater level is the upper edge of the street (physical backwater level) plus a 15 cm safety distance.

How does a lifting station work?

For discharge points located below the backwater level – such as in basement rooms – a natural flow is not possible. In such cases, a lifting station transports the wastewater: the wastewater is collected in a tank and pumped into the gravity drain above the backwater level. Operation is automatic, controlled by a built-in float switch.

How does a backwater valve work?

Backwater valves are integrated into the pipe system and close automatically when water flows back from the sewer. There are mechanically operated versions as well as electrically controlled models with extended functions. Electrically operated systems are usually required in frequently used rooms.

What has to be considered during planning and installation?

There are a few points to consider:

Z

Composition of the wastewater (e.g. faecal-free / faecal-containing wastewater)

Z
Individual or collective protection of the drainage points
Z
Checking whether wastewater must be disposed during backwater
Z

Installation inside or outside buildings

Maintenance of backwater protection and wastewater lifting systems

To maintain your insurance cover after installation, regular maintenance is required by the insurance company.

Backwater valves must be maintained in accordance with DIN EN 13564-1 as follows:

  • once a month by the operator or his authorized representative by means of a visual inspection, whereby the functionality of the emergency closure as well as the operating closure must be confirmed.
  • maintenance at least every six months by a certified specialist company.

Questions and answers

Do you still have questions
about Backwater protection in Oftersheim?

What are the advantages of a lifting system in Oftersheim?

A lifting unit is used to pump wastewater from lower parts of the building, such as rooms with basements, above the backwater level. In Oftersheim, where many buildings are older and possibly not designed for modern wastewater requirements, a lifting unit offers the advantage of ensuring the safe removal of wastewater and counteracting backwater problems.

How do I know if I need a backflow preventer?

Whether you need backflow protection depends on various factors, such as the location of your building and the height of the sewer system compared to your basement or other lower-lying rooms. It is advisable to seek advice from a specialist company to determine whether backflow protection is necessary in your structural situation.

What maintenance measures are required for lifting systems in Oftersheim?

Lifting systems in Oftersheim require regular maintenance to ensure their functionality. This includes checking pumps, cleaning backwater valves and testing the entire system. Regular maintenance helps to prevent breakdowns and extend the service life of the system.
