Preventive Maintenance

Planned service that prevents downtime and extends plant life.

Preventive maintenance replaces cartridges, cleans membranes, calibrates instruments and services pumps before they fail — cheaper than reactive repair and far kinder to production.

Zakafrica Water designs, supplies, installs and services these systems across Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania and Rwanda.
