Property owners are asking...

What is the SemperScreen® permanent sink screen, and who is it for?

The SemperScreen® permanent sink screen is a permanently installed kitchen sink screen designed to prevent clogs and protect plumbing systems by stopping food debris before it causes damage.

Property owners and short-term rental owners love it for its long-term protection and peace of mind, as preventing debris from entering a building's plumbing system is the most effective way to avoid costly plumbing repairs.

Property managers trust it to reduce emergency plumbing calls, keep rental units clean and tenants happy, and provide added value to their services.

What makes the SemperScreen® permanent sink screen better than a regular sink strainer?

For rental property owners and managers, a common issue with typical sink strainers and drain screens is that tenants often misplace them or throw them away. This results in no protection for the unit’s plumbing, more frequent clogs, and the associated maintenance costs. A permanent sink screen has the advantage of not being removable without the aid of a plumber. This ensures parts aren’t misplaced or thrown away, keeping the unit’s plumbing protection intact.

For residents, many removable drain screens and strainers are made from inexpensive materials such as plastic or thin aluminum, and they often break or rust within a few months of use. Removable strainers are also misplaced easily, especially when more than one person uses the sink. The SemperScreen® permanent sink screen cannot be misplaced, and its food-grade stainless steel construction, the same type used in commercial kitchens, ensures it won’t rust or break.

How do preventative plumbing upgrades improve net operating income?

Preventative plumbing upgrades reduce recurring service calls, emergency labor costs, and tenant disruption. Lower operating expenses directly improve net operating income, and the increase in tenant satisfaction in turn decreases turnover.
