Kağıthane Combi Vacuum Jetting Truck

When the crew with the combi vacuum jetting truck in Kağıthane arrives at your address, the first job is to open the cover and check where the line is blocked. The problem may sit in a shop drain, in a building's main line or in a long run across a garden, and the location differs each time, so the method is chosen to match.

On the combination truck, vacuum and high-pressure water work at the same time, so while the liquid is drawn out, the grease and sludge on the pipe wall are loosened and carried away with the waste. At Cantley we do this work with the combination truck in homes, apartment buildings and businesses in Kağıthane, and with a mini vacuum truck in narrow streets. The waste is taken to authorised discharge points and licensed facilities.

Kağıthane's valley terrain and build-up in the lines

In Kağıthane, older apartment buildings on the valley slopes and newer residences on the valley floor connect to the same infrastructure. On the steep streets of Gültepe and Çağlayan, the lower part of the shared stacks collects grease and sediment from the upper floors, and in ground-floor flats this build-up turns into overflow.

An overflow in the sink of a small workshop on the valley floor, or in the basement of an apartment building's caretaker, often shows that other units use the same line too. In residences, kitchen and bathroom pipes join the stack through long horizontal runs, so sediment builds up in those runs. In offices, the kitchenette and the shared toilet are used heavily during working hours, so blockages usually start in the middle of the day.

Frequently asked questions

Do you need a vacuum truck if the building's main line is blocked in Kağıthane?

Yes. When several flats have drain problems at the same time, the main line is usually full of sludge, and this is where the combination truck is needed. The crew first checks through the cover whether the line is full, then draws out the liquid with the vacuum and loosens the pipe wall with pressurised water.

Why does a sink get blocked again after it has been cleared?

The cause is often a crust of grease and sludge built up on the inside of the pipe. A short suction run opens the blockage temporarily but does not remove the crust, so for repeated blockages, washing the whole line through with the combination truck gives a more lasting result.

What happens if the large truck cannot get into a narrow street or a low car park?

In that case we work with a mini vacuum truck, so a narrow street or a low car park entrance does not stop the job. Before our visit, it helps if you keep the route the truck will use clear and locate the septic tank or manhole cover, so the work can go smoothly.
