Australia’s Leading Sewer Vent Shaft Design, Fabrication & Installation Company
SVSR stands as the paramount authority in sewer vent lines. Our extensive experience of more than 25 years collaborating with regional and council clients underscores our profound industry expertise and unwavering determination. We adeptly oversee the complete lifecycle of sewer vent shafts, vent cowls, and odor filters, managing design, fabrication, installation, removal, and relocation throughout NSW and other states. Our assurance is rooted in unmatched quality and full compliance.
Why you need to monitor sewer vents
Sewer vent shafts are pivotal in ensuring proper wastewater network ventilation. Numerous council ventilation shafts in NSW, aged over 80 years, now pose imminent safety hazards to individuals and property. Typically crafted from reinforced concrete, older sewer vent shafts deteriorate over time due to exposure to sewer gases. This degradation leads to the exposure of steel reinforcement and renders the concrete shafts vulnerable to lightning strikes or even collapse.
“In the context of sewer conditions, odour and corrosion are intertwined. Foul gases react chemically to create acids, eroding our crucial pipes. Persistent issues lead to leaks and potential sewer system failure, with catastrophic implications.” ~ Duncan Reynolds, SVSR R&D
SVSR conducts comprehensive assessments and continuous monitoring of existing sewer assets, encompassing vent shafts, vent cowls, and odour filters. We furnish recommendations to ensure public safety and cost-effective, sustainable solutions.
Our sewer vent shaft services
Crafted from premium stainless steel, our sewer vent shafts epitomise durability and minimal upkeep requirements. For enhanced efficiency, we offer a range of options, including rotating educt vent cowls, induct cowls, and bespoke designs.
Our specialisation includes:
- Replacement of aging and deteriorating sewer vent shafts for regional councils and water agencies, encompassing removal, disposal, and installation
- Tackling challenging vent shaft access scenarios, such as residential backyards, proximity to roadways, overhead power lines, and subsurface utilities
- Comprehensive services spanning detailed design guidance, odour/gas evaluations, and condition assessments for existing vent shafts, facilitating maintenance budget planning.
Our expertise extends to the design, fabrication, and installation of sewer vent shafts, vent cowls, and odour filters across NSW. With meticulous project management, we ensure a secure, punctual, and successful sewer ventilation solution.
Managing community relations
Given that a significant portion of NSW sewer vent shafts are situated on private properties, particularly in residential front and backyards, our foremost focus centers on engaging property owners. Our interactions extend to various invested parties, encompassing neighbours, local councils, governmental entities, developers, and private enterprises. In instances where project implications extend to the broader community, we implement a tailor-made Contractor Community Liaison Plan to address site-specific requirements.
Regional and council sewer vent shaft designs
Post sewer vent shafts
For catchment areas with low to medium density, post sewer vent shafts offer the optimal cost-efficient remedy. These shafts are offered in sizes of 150mm, 225mm, or 300mm in diameter, reaching a maximum height of 9 meters.
Guy-wire sewer vent shafts
Typically crafted from 304 grade stainless steel (though 316 grade is also an option), our guy-wire sewer vent shafts are offered in heights spanning from 14m to 18m.
Custom design vent shafts
Backed by a proficient team, we excel in all facets of sewer ventilation. Whether tailoring steel fabrication to specific guidelines or adapting existing designs for personalised sewer vent shafts, vent cowls, and odour filters, our team has you covered. Our comprehensive CAD services are managed internally. Collaborating closely, we align our efforts with your specifications and adhere to council or regional water authority compliance mandates.
