For hospitals and clinics, SKUAS installs TermiPore porous pipe under new blocks and in external trenches around running buildings, charged with Envu Premise SC at the IS 6313 dose. Refills every 2 to 3 years are done from outdoor junction boxes, without drilling into wards, OTs or corridors, and each round is logged for the facility file.
A hospital cannot close a ward because termites have reached the records room. Patient files, wooden nurse stations, door frames in OPD blocks and false ceilings in older wings all give termites something to feed on, and the building is occupied every hour of the day. Conventional treatment of an existing hospital means drilling floors in corridors and rooms, with dust and noise in spaces that infection-control teams work hard to keep clean.
Reticulation moves most of that work outside the clinical areas. For new blocks and extensions, pipe goes in before the floor is cast. For running buildings, pipe runs in a trench along the external walls. Either way, later refills happen at junction boxes outside, so the biomedical, housekeeping and infection-control teams plan around a short outdoor job rather than a drilling programme inside the wards.
Drill-fill-seal treatment makes holes in the floor at close intervals and generates fine dust. In operating theatres, ICUs, CSSD and dialysis units that dust is not acceptable, and even in general wards it disturbs patients and staff. Some areas would need a shutdown and a cleaning cycle before reuse, which a busy hospital rarely has room for.
Medical records rooms, pharmacy stores packed with cartons, linen stores and older wings with wooden partitions all attract termites. Damage often appears first in a store nobody visits daily. By the time a file rack collapses, the colony has travelled through expansion joints and service ducts into the adjoining areas.
Accreditation assessors and hospital administrators expect pest management to be documented: what was used, where, when and by whom. A pest control visit that leaves no record is hard to defend during an inspection, and a treatment that cannot be repeated on a schedule leaves gaps in the file year after year.
In new wings and extensions, pipe is laid along wall lines and as an under-floor grid before the PCC, so the clinical areas above never need drilling for termite treatment later.
Around occupied blocks, pipe is laid in a trench along the outer walls and charged from new junction boxes. Indoor drill-fill-seal is limited to non-critical areas with active termites, after agreement with infection control.
Refills take place at junction boxes outside the building, at hours agreed with the facility manager, with no access needed to wards, OTs or ICUs.
Each charge or refill is recorded with date, chemical, dilution, quantity and loops covered, ready to file with your pest management records for internal or external audits.
The pipe we install
Made in Vadodara, Gujarat, India from a thermoplastic elastomeric compound with a honeycomb micro-pore wall. Termiticide seeps out evenly through micro-pores on all sides, unlike hand-drilled PVC that leaks at a few holes. The manufacturer rates pipe life at 30 to 50 years (manufacturer estimate).
Sizes, specs and how to spot genuine pipe
The chemical we charge it with
Imidacloprid 30.5% SC from Envu (formerly Bayer Environmental Science). It is odourless and non-repellent: termites cannot detect it, carry it back to the nest and pass it on to the colony.
Why we use Premise SCHospital blocks usually suit PipeGuard Max, as its annual inspection report and scheduled refills under AMC fit the way facility teams keep records. Small nursing homes and single-building clinics often choose PipeGuard Plus.
