Maltepe Car Park Vacuum Truck
On a car park vacuum truck job in Maltepe, the first thing the crew does on arrival is inspect the entrance, the ramp and the water level on the floor. This check shows how many levels the car park has and how steep the ramp is. Pumping out does not start before the cause is seen, because if the blockage stays in place, the water rises again in a short time.
At Cantley we often come across two types of site in Maltepe: basement car parks of offices and business centres, and the garage ramps of detached houses or houses with gardens. In a business centre, water usually rises when a greasy layer builds up in the shared grate channel. In a detached house, it can come back from the garden drain at the foot of the ramp, so we first look at which route the water is coming from.
Basement car parks and rainwater in Maltepe
Where old and new buildings stand side by side in Maltepe because of urban renewal, the connection between the basement outlet and the street drain changes, and water can get stuck at that point. In areas close to the coast such as Küçükyalı and Altayçeşme, if there is a business on the ground floor, a grease load is added to this picture. On the north side of the E-5, in İdealtepe, Cevizli and Zümrütevler, water can back up through basement drains after a downpour.
In a basement like this, the crew first opens the building outlet and the base of the shared stack, then assesses why the drain opening is backing up. If the building and the car park are connected to the same line, the drains on both sides need to be read together.
Frequently asked questions
Why does the water in a car park in Maltepe not drain after rain?
Most of the time the grate or the channel below it is blocked with sludge and a greasy layer. A submersible pump may reduce the water to some extent, but it does not clear the sludge on the floor, so the water rises again. That is why pumping out the water and cleaning the source should be done together.
What should be prepared in the car park before calling a vacuum truck?
The most important thing is to keep the route the large vehicle will use clear. Finding the location of the septic tank or manhole cover also makes the job easier, but do not open the cover yourself or climb down inside. If the hose will pass through a shared area, let the building management know.
What is done when the entrance is narrow or low?
In this case a mini vacuum truck is preferred instead of the standard vehicle. The crew stops the vehicle at the safest point closest to the ramp entrance and runs the hose in from outside. If you share the height of the entrance and the slope of the ramp in a photo, we decide on the suitable vehicle from the start.
