Sweet smell of success
January 1st 2006

Sporting facilities at Westcombe Park Rugby Club in Orpington are impressive.However, the club was troubled by a stale smell from the large trough urinal in the main washroom that persisted despite a frequent flush cycle and the liberal application of loose urinal blocks.

A Sani-Sleeve system from Enviro-Fresh provided a solution.

The insertion of the 50mm Sani- Sleeve into the waste outlet of the urinal has eliminated odour and reduced flush frequency from 10min to 4h.The tube extends below the water level in the trap and is topped by an Enviro-Fresh cap containing a single deodorising block.

The low cost unit is replaced every three months to maintain the efficiency of the bio enzymes and this eliminates the build-up of uric salts and limescale that causes the offensive smell.

Loose urinal blocks are no longer necessary.

Savings on the club's water bills are expected to be considerable.
