Fatih Backflow Valve Installation

In Fatih this problem is usually seen in basements, ground-floor shops and semi-basement flats that sit below street level. In a cafe or restaurant, foul-smelling water can rise from the kitchen or toilet drain in a downpour after the evening rush. In a flat you have just moved into, the basement line may cause trouble for the first time in a rainfall the previous residents never saw. At Cantley, we first inspect the line on site with a camera, tell you which drain the backflow is coming from, and then move on to installation.

In the attached houses on the slopes of Balat and Fener, the lines have been renovated over time by different tradespeople, and old pipes and new parts have ended up joined on the same shared stack. Because the original plumbing of some buildings was never documented, the question of where the drain actually runs can only be answered by looking inside with a camera. In attached buildings the line may pass through a neighbour's basement, so the source of the problem is sometimes not under your own basement at all.

In the hotels and guesthouses around Aksaray, Laleli and Sultanahmet, the water from many bathrooms is collected into the same shared stacks. In the historic hans around the Grand Bazaar, the drains of the shops meet at a common connection. In restaurant kitchens in Kumkapı, grease and food waste can build up inside the drain and narrow the flow, and when this combines with pressure coming from the street line, the problem develops faster. Since it is often not possible to open the floor in a historic building, backflow valve installation in Fatih is usually carried out on the manhole or the basement line.
