Vehicle Wash Pads

Vehicle Wash Pad Systems from Morclean

 

Firstly, the Wash Pad captures all the wastewater into a drain and a surface mounted sump pump. Most importantly, this can then be discharged to foul, partially treated via a Morclean BlueBox or GreyBox, or pumped to water reclaim system.

It is a chargeable offense for anyone to cause or knowingly permit the discharge of solid waste matter, or of poisonous, noxious or polluting matter, trade and sewage effluent into surface waters or groundwater without prior consent from the Environmental Regulator.

The Wash Pad can also be used in conjunction with the Morclean Pump Station. This is a surface mounted device housed in a kiosk that collects water from the outlet of the wash pad and then pumps it to the drain. The wash pad is supplied with a drain to one end of the pad as standard or can be supplied as a complete watertight retainer.

You should carry out dewaxing, cleaning and degreasing activities in designated wash bay areas. Not on the ground which discharges to surface water drains, watercourses or soakaways. In addition, a water recycling system can reduce water use and associated costs. The wash bay should be impermeable and isolated by a raised curb, with the effluent directed to foul sewer or a sealed pump. Never direct the drainage from these areas through an oil interceptor, as the oil will be emulsified and washed out of the interceptor.

Above all WashMan Wash Pads eliminate the need to install a permanent concrete wash pad, which is both more expensive and not always viable if the land is not freehold.
