Our drainage systems are used time and time again each day. Whether it is the water that is passed down our sinks or the flush of a toilet the drains are one of the hardest working systems in our homes and places of business. The drainage systems join together in the streets where our central drainage systems carry away water and waste. These pipes can be subject to cracks and leaks appearing and may be subject to the need for a Drain Lining Company like https://www.wilkinson-env.co.uk/sewer-repairs-drain-lining-concrete-cutting/ to provide repair solutions.
Here are some interesting facts about drains.
- The Egyptians are the first civilisation thought to have created a form of drainage system. This is in part due to the fact that the Egyptians used water as a large part of their spiritual rituals and so it was important that the water they used was clean and as hygienic as possible.
- The Romans created a sewer system known as the Cloaca Maxima and it is thanks to them that we have the modern idea of sewage and drainage systems. Again the Romans loved their water and wanted to ensure that they had enough clean water available for their baths and saunas.
