Fiberglass Advantages
12' dia. prefabricated fiberglass wastewater pump station
Romtec Utilities’ complete sewage pumping systems are available with wet wells and vaults of either fiberglass or concrete. The high-quality Xerxes fiberglass underground tanks are delivered to the job site fully assembled and ready for pipe and pump installation. Here are some of the advantages of fiberglass:
- Complete one-piece structures require no field assembly. Pre-assembled fiberglass wet wells are ready to receive influent and discharge pipes, submersible or dry pit pumps and liquid level sensing devices.
- One-piece fiberglass vessels up to 12 feet diameter and 40 feet long can be shipped to any project location.
- Tanks have no joints to be sealed, so there is no potential for groundwater incursion.
- Unique rib design makes wet wells more resistant to uplift the deeper the tank is placed underground.

- Tanks can be oriented either vertically or horizontally and fitted with a variety of pumps: submersible pumps, short set vertical turbine pumps and dry pit pumps in horizontal or vertical configuration.
- Wet well’s truncated base with sloping sides helps prevent build-up of grease and other solids.
- Fiberglass is not degraded by the hydrogen sulfide gas present in sewage, and it will not break down from exposure to petrochemicals, acids or caustic fluids. No additional sealing or coating of the fiberglass surface is required.
