Heatrak Technical Services was appointed to support a major refurbishment at the northbound Leicester Forest East Services on the M1, providing temporary facilities for ten weeks. Modular WC blocks with 12 toilets were installed to maintain customer access.

With no excavation permitted and pipework required above ground, wastewater needed to be pumped over 15m to the nearest drainage point. Heatrak turned to Saniflo for a solution.

Following a site survey and flow calculations, a three-phase Sanicubic 2 VX lifting station was specified. Installed behind the temporary units, the system collected waste from all blocks and discharged it via 4” pipework to the mains.

Featuring twin vortex pumps to prevent clogging and ensure reliability, the above-ground unit was quick to install and operated seamlessly throughout the project.

Designed for high-demand environments, the Sanicubic 2 VX delivers efficient wastewater management where gravity drainage isn’t possible.
