Klargester BA BioDisc Service – Carmunnock, South Glasgow

Caledonia Environmental recently carried out a full service on a Klargester BA BioDisc sewage treatment plant in Carmunnock, one of the rural village pockets just outside Glasgow where off-grid sewage systems are still common.

Work Carried Out

  • Full Klargester BA BioDisc system service
  • Motor start capacitor reading tested
  • Out-of-tolerance capacitor identified and replaced
  • New capacitor fitted to restore correct motor start-up
  • Inspected outlet pump discharging to soakaway
  • Verified correct flow and operation of outlet pump to soakaway system

Why Replacing Capacitors is Critical

If the motor start capacitor fails — especially after a power cut or surge — the gearbox motor may stall or burn out completely. For the sake of a simple £5 part, proactive replacement avoids expensive damage to the BioDisc and prevents system downtime. This highlights why routine servicing is essential for rural homes relying on private sewage systems and soakaway discharge points.
