This dairy farm located in Waitakaruru, was experiencing recurring issues with its effluent system due to stones and debris entering the lines.
Despite having a reliable effluent system in place, the presence of small stones and debris from the yards was compromising the overall performance. Over time, the blockages became more frequent and problematic, particularly during peak flow times. These blockages frequently disrupted operations, requiring farm staff to spend valuable time managing and clearing them, adding stress and inefficiencies to their daily routine. The farm team consulted with Williams Effluent Solutions to find a permanent and low maintenance solution. After a detailed onsite assessment, it was clear that installing a 3m x 6m stone trap would be the most effective way to prevent solids from entering the effluent system and causing future blockages. The Williams Effluent Solutions team worked closely with the farm to plan the installation around daily operations to ensure minimal disruption. With years of experience in effluent system design and implementation, the Williams team ensured the project was executed efficiently and to the highest standard.
The installation of the stone trap was completed on time and with minimal interference to farm activities. The Williams team handled the entire process from start to finish, keeping the farm crew informed and the project on schedule. Since the stone trap has been installed, the farm has not experienced a single blockage. Effluent now flows freely through the system, and farm staff can focus on their core tasks without the constant interruption of maintenance or repairs.
"Our effluent system was a constant source of frustration due to frequent blockages. After consulting with the Williams team, we decided to install an effluent stone trap. The difference has been remarkable! Since the installation, we haven't experienced a single blockage, and our operations run much smoother. The Williams team was professional and efficient throughout the process. I highly recommend their services to anyone struggling with similar issues!"
