What Exactly is a grinder pump?
A grinder pump breaks up and grinds up wastewater that is
produced in your drainage system while sending the wastewater it into the
public sewer system. A grinder pump is placed in a tank that is buried in an
outdoor location on a property were this tank provides wastewater holding
storage capacity. When water is used in the building, this wastewater flows
into that tank. When the wastewater in the tank reaches a pre-set level, the
grinder pump automatically turns on grinding the waste and pumps that out of
the tank to the on-site sewer service line and into the public sewer system. A
grinder pump will normally run for one or two minutes and automatically turn
off when the tank is emptied. The pump is powered by electricity and is
connected to a control panel by an electric meter.
Why Some Businesses in NYC Need Grinder Pumps
Since wastewater flows by gravity from a business'
on-property sewer service line to a public sewer main where wastewater flows to
specific treatment plants, the wastewater is cleaned, disinfected and safely
returned to the environment. However, because of elevation, gravity may not
work in all instances. In situations where a business sewer service line leaves
the building at a lower elevation than the public sewer main, a grinder pump is
necessary to grind and pump wastewater to the main.
What can I do to protect my grinder pump in NYC?
A properly maintained grinder pump should be able to handle
wastewater from the kitchen, bathroom, laundry, with no problem. Harsh
chemicals and substances can adversely impact a grinder pump and may cause
safety hazards. We advice that you check the labels on all chemicals before
using and disposing.
As a good rule of thumb, never pour the following items down drains or down
toilets:
- Grease
(extract from cooking meat fats, oils, shortening, butter, margarine, food
scraps, sauces and dairy products)
- Explosive
or flammable material
- Kitty
Litter
- Aquarium
gravel
- Strong
Chemicals or toxic, caustic or poisonous substances
- Degreasing
solvents
- Diapers,
feminine products, or cloth of any kind
- Fuel
or lubricating oil, paint thinner of antifreeze
- Plastic
objects
- Seafood
Shells.
