EVAC CLEANTECH SOLUTIONS for supermarkets

Evac – World leading expertiseDesign and engineering support dedicated to your project

We offer custom product design and engineering solutions, plumbing design, and other engineering services for architectural, civil, and environmental engineering projects. We fully support your architecture and design teams throughout the design process to ensure the best possible results.

Evac vacuum systems comply with the EN 12109 European standard for vacuum drainage systems inside buildings.

Our global network of skilled plumbing partners and representatives are all trained and supported by Evac. We are constantly developing our network to ensure that when you’re looking for vacuum plumbing installation, you know you can rely on a local contractor with the Evac stamp of approval.

When you’re looking for maintenance for your Evac systems our global network of local plumbing partners can provide you with reliable preventive maintenance and repair services. Evac can also offer full support and training to your existing contractors and maintenance services – because we believe that a problem-free system is the best endorsement we can have.

Together with our wide network of partners, we have been carrying out training programs for architects and designers, students, installers, and service companies. These programs have included university lectures, seminars, and lunch and learn sessions.

Our operations are ISO 9001:2015 (Quality Management Systems), ISO 14001:2015 (Environmental Management Systems), and OHSAS 18001:2007 (Occupational Health & Safety Management Systems).

Advantages• Overnight or open store remodeling and renovations• Simple design, planning, construction, and maintenance• Preserve floor integrity

Condensate drainage for a store layout that supports profitability

Minimize profit loss during remodeling

Remodel your store more frequently, with no restriction on freezer or chiller cabinet placement – leaving no floor drain or trench mark. Remodeling can be carried out quickly, safely, and cleanly without closing individual departments or the entire store. This minimizes the impact on store profitability.

Relocation within dense areas or underground, and building conversion

With vacuum drainage you’ll have more location options for new stores, with no liability risk for other tenants who may be beneath you, such as in underground car parks.

• Make supermarkets and warehouses more profitable with shorter and cost-effective construction work

• Improve supermarket profitability with flexible layout options• Choose a strong and reliable partner

Evac systems use a vacuum to draw condensate upwards to a height of up to 6 m. A vacuum piping network doesn't require a continuous slope. Usually made of PVC or PEHD, the piping is easily accessed and modified, which makes a last-minute addition or modification simple and inexpensive.

Evac benefits for store operation

Reduced maintenance and odor: Vacuum systems require less maintenance than traditional systems, while vacuum grease separators reduce odor in the kitchen and surrounding areas. It is also easier to install kitchens and toilets underground, meaning the above-ground level can be kept for customers.

Water saving: The Evac vacuum toilet is highly economical, consuming 82% less water per flush than a traditional gravity toilet. The toilet is also more hygienic as it effectively removes contaminants, mist, and odors from the bowl rather than allowing them to escape into the surrounding atmosphere.

Space saving: Blackwater and graywater can be combined in the same piping and do not need vent stacks. The piping diameter is smaller, and routing the piping in the ceiling frees floor footprint.

No leakage or blockage: Blockages and sedimentation are nonexistent because of the very high water velocity in the vacuum pipe. A breach in the pipe will lead to air leaking into the pipe, not water leaking into the room.

The pumps are coated with an anti-corrosion material adapted for humid environments.

High reliability and minimal maintenance requirements limit spare parts consumption and breaks in operation.

The remote management system can send alarm text messages via a GSM connection.

Evac vacuum collection

• Vacuum pumps maintain a constant vacuum in the tank and in the piping network.

• The vacuum collection tank receives all effluents in a central point.

• Effluents are automatically drained to the sewer via the discharge pump.

• High reliability • Automatic discharge set up periodically
