Upgrading Underground Drainage

 25 Oct 2024

Just weeks into Autumn and Great Britain is experiencing frequent bouts of extreme weather. Buildings and homes are being hit by high-speed wind and intense rainfall.

If this type of weather persists, which looks likely, British builders must react by recommending, specifying, and installing building products that are fit-for-purpose and robust enough to cope with extreme weather.

One area where this is particularly important is underground drainage. While flooding is now commonplace in certain parts of the country, it’s vital that all properties have an adequate drainage system to help prevent flooding ad a build-up of contaminated water.

A well-performing underground drainage system plays an important role in disposing of water, taking it away from the building. Plastic building products manufacturer, Kalsi Group, understands this and appreciates that builders and homeowners alike want easy access to proven underground drainage products for repairs and upgrades.

Kalsi offers its customers a future-proof choice – underground drainage products that provide flexibility and peace of mind as they are compatible with competitor products, meaning they can be slotted into an existing system to improve performance or installed as a complete system.

Most popular is the company’s Aquaflow underground drainage system. It is designed for use in gravity drainage and sewerage applications up to 10 metres deep. The system is suitable for new build but it’s refurbishment where the true benefits of compatibility can be appreciated.

With 110mm and 160mm pipe and fittings, inspection chambers, chamber covers and back inlet bottle gullies with square or circular tops, Kalsi manufacturers the complete system at its plant in Birmingham.

The Kalsi Aquaflow soil and waste system is manufactured to British Standards: BS EN 274-1:2002, BS 4514:1983, BS EN 1451:2000 and BS 5255:1989.

Kalsi Group offers its supply chain partners additional peace of mind with the testing and assessment of its products, securing British Board of Agrement (BBA) certification and Kitemarks across its ranges.

Kalsi products are available nationwide via a network of approved stockists.
