Title: Bundled area and spill kits
Post by: Ggh on January 10, 2023, 08:33:38 am
We’re moving away from manual cleaning to using pressure washers as much as possible. Some clients are requesting ‘bunded areas’ and ‘spill kits’ for the petrol washers.
Anyone use these? Any suggestions for the bunded area? Some sort of tray like an oil sump thing maybe?

For a bund you could use one of these https://amzn.to/3ZrlMzK (https://amzn.to/3ZrlMzK) at about 80cm x 80cm and 12cm deep you should be fine to catch any oil or petrol spills.

If you spill a little petrol while filling a pressure washer engine then it won't be much which will soon evaporate.  This looks like another jobs-worthy on 'keeping my job patrol'. Again, Health and Safety going overboard.

Where is the same jobs-worthy when it comes to a major oil leak my neighbour's VW Transporter has that's dripping oil all over the road outside where he parks it?

It’s clean water reservoirs and treatment/purification sites for water providers. Drop something in and the supply gets isolated for potentially millions of people.

Ok ,but a litre of petrol in a reservoir isn’t going to be noticeable 😂😂😂
