Fortner Plumbing • May 1, 2025

With South Carolina’s rising business growth, it’s important for entrepreneurs to protect themselves and their businesses from unexpected surprises – like plumbing issues. Having a sewer backup, malfunctioning toilet or clogged drains can be costly and stressful to repair. However, business owners in Anderson can have peace of mind with Fortner Plumbing’s FlowSafe commercial service program.


What Is the FlowSafe Program?


The FlowSafe program is a service offered to local businesses, providing assistance when they’re hit with unexpected plumbing issues. The program includes:


Comprehensive Site Surveys


Plumbers are equipped with detailed site surveys designed specifically for your commercial properties. What’s great about these surveys is that our team can map your plumbing system and create detailed guides to help businesses resolve immediate plumbing issues before they get out of hand.


When our team conducts a survey, we identify several things including: 

  • Sewer Clean-Out Locations: Ensuring quick access for clog removal
  • Water Shut-Off Valves: Clearly labeled to stop leaks fast
  • Drainage & Sewer Mapping: Identify sump pumps, storm drains and sewer pumps
  • Backflow Prevention Systems: Verify compliance and function to protect water quality


Once we have the information, we can then create the following products to help businesses in their time of need:

  • Customized Facility Diagram – A visual map of your plumbing system
  • Emergency Response Guide – Quick-reference instructions for immediate action
  • Digital Records – Easily integrate with facility management software


Annual Preventive Maintenance Program


By joining the FlowSafe program, local businesses can take advantage of our annual preventive maintenance program. By having regular inspections, you can ensure that small fixes are addressed before they become big problems down the line. 


Here’s what your business receives during a key survey:

  • Sewer Line Video Inspections – Detect blockages, cracks or root intrusions
  • Drain Cleaning Services – Prevent clogs and ensure proper water flow
  • Backflow Testing & Prevention – Protect against contamination risks
  • Leak Detection – Identify hidden water and gas leaks before they cause damage
  • Water Heater Inspections – Ensure efficient performance and extend equipment life
  • Emergency Response Readiness – Verify that previously mapped components remain accessible and functional

24/7 emergency support is incredibly beneficial for when an unexpected leak or backup occurs. You don’t want your plumbing to be the reason you can’t operate and with our FlowSafe program you're not just protecting your business – you're securing future profits and maintaining peace of mind.

Why You Should Consider the FlowSafe Program

Comprehensive Site Surveys Stomp Out Problems


These surveys make a difference by helping business owners stop urgent plumbing problems before they wreak havoc. Our comprehensive maps and guides can be tools if an unexpected plumbing issue arises. For example, If a valve needs to be shut to stop a leak, our guides can be used to identify the shut-off valve, stopping the leak and potential water damage from spreading to other parts of your business. By having quick access to your plumbing, damage can be halted before it becomes extensive, helping you save on costly repairs.


Preventative Maintenance Saves on Future Repairs


Preventive maintenance helps identify and address potential plumbing issues before they become worse. By thoroughly inspecting all components of a property’s plumbing, professionals can detect early signs of wear, inefficiencies or non-compliance. This proactive approach allows for timely repairs or upgrades, which improves the longevity of your plumbing system and offers long-term savings. 


24/7 Emergency Services Give You Peace of Mind


Knowing that help is available at any hour means that unexpected issues like burst pipes or severe leaks can be addressed immediately, minimizing downtime and damage. Our around-the-clock support helps keep operations running smoothly and protects both property and profits. With reliable emergency services, business owners can focus on what they do best, without worrying about plumbing setbacks.
