Southern Water Blockbusters - The fight against the fat!
At ASL Limited, we’ve always been passionate about keeping drainage systems flowing smoothly, and now we’re thrilled that Southern Water are tackling it too! They have launched a campaign 'Southern Water Blockbusters' to tackle one of the most pressing issues in drainage today—fatbergs.
Fatbergs are massive, stubborn blockages caused by a combination of fats, oils, grease (FOG), and unflushable items like wet wipes. They wreak havoc on drainage systems, causing blockages, sewer overflows, and costly damage. Together with Southern Water Blockbusters, we’re on a mission to educate, prevent, and remove these monstrous obstructions to protect our communities and environment.
How we’re fighting fatbergs
-
Education and awareness: We’re helping spread the message about what should (and shouldn’t!) go down your drains. Simple changes, like disposing of FOG in a bin and avoiding flushing wet wipes, make a huge difference.
-
Expert support: With decades of experience, ASL Limited brings our expertise in drainage solutions to the fight. From unblocking drains to providing regular maintenance, we ensure that homes and businesses stay fatberg-free.
-
Sustainable solutions: Our team works inline with the water authorities to provide eco-friendly drainage solutions, helping to reduce the impact of fatbergs on our environment and infrastructure.
What you can do to help
Fatbergs may be tough, but together, we can beat them! Here’s how you can join the fight:
- Bin it, don’t pour it: Dispose of cooking fats, oils, and grease in a container, then throw it in the bin.
- Flush smart: Only flush the 3 Ps—pee, poo, and paper. Wet wipes, even “flushable” ones, belong in the bin.
- Maintain your drains: Regular maintenance can keep your drainage system flowing smoothly.
Together, we can all take a stand against fatbergs to keep our drains, communities, and waterways clean and flowing.
