An elevator pit is located underground. This makes it vulnerable to leaks caused by groundwater, for example. If this is the case for your elevator, it’s important to take action as soon as possible. Oil leaks can also cause a big problem. Is your elevator affected by an oil leak? Then quickly call in the experts of Extra Lift Service. We do not only clean up the leaks for you, we also degrease the elevator pit and we can impregnate the pit to prevent future leaks.
No one hopes for a leak in the elevator pit, yet they occur regularly. This is because the elevator pit is often several meters under the ground. With a bit of bad luck, groundwater will run to your elevator pit. In this case, Extra Lift Service’s specialists will quickly pump the water out of the pit, so the functioning of your elevator will not be endangered.
Another nasty leakage that can occur is an oil leak. Some elevator installations work with tanks filled with oil – often hundreds of liters of oil. Despite good precautions, a tank can start to leak. In that case, Extra Lift Service will clean up and remove the leaked oil in a neat and environmentally friendly way.
Elevator systems are frequently full of grease. Although this grease actually only belongs on the guides, it often spreads throughout the entire installation. Therefore, degreasing the elevator shaft is an important part of elevator maintenance. Sometimes, however, the grease gets the chance to spread far and wide and ends up in the elevator pit. This is very dangerous for the technicians who have to work here, because of the high danger of slipping. Extra Lift Service degreases elevator pits so engineers can always do their work safely.
