Waste Water Commissioning Explained

What is Commissioning?
Commissioning is a crucial step in making sure your Klargester system is installed correctly, runs smoothly and performs at its best from day one. It ensures your system complies with all relevant regulations and helps prevent early component failure or costly breakdowns.
What's the difference between installation and commissioning?
- Installation means physically building and/or putting the system in place.
- Commissioning means an engineer carries out all required tests and checks, in line with industry standards, to ensure the system operates correctly and perfoms optimally.
What's the difference between Commissioning and Service?
- Commissioning is a once-off visit from an engineer to ensure that your system is functioning optimally before it begins regualr operation.
- Service is a regular visit to ensure ongoing efficiency, helps prevent costly breakdown and extends the system's lifespan.
Key Differences
