Customer reviews
I have been a plumber for over thirty years and installed many water treatment systems. CleanaWater systems are by far the best for quality and reliability. They provide excellent customer service, from sales staff right through to expert advice and technical help. Can't thank CleanaWater enough!
Iain Paterson, Multilple Trades and Maintenance
We have seen a fantastic improvement since the OdourPro VapourGard™ system was installed 3 years ago. The system mitigates the heavy odours which are released from the site, which has improved conditions for our staff and almost completely eliminated complaints from local residents and businesses
Glenn Claverie, Select Civil
The whole process was very simple, the sales and technical support was great, when needed contact was made easily for assistance during construction and the finished product works and looks fantastic, all in all working with the CleanaWater team to purchase our new Portable Wash Bay was a trouble free process
Doug Neil, Stihl Sales and Service Centre Coffs Harbour
The purchasing of our oil separator, from obtaining a quote through to delivery, was made extremely easy through CleanaWater, the staff are easy to deal with and make the whole process hassle-free, as well as supplying a quality product. I would highly recommend CleanaWater products in the future.
Bret Sheehan, Surefire Plumbing Services
The VapourGard™ system is a great alternative to the other odour suppression systems out there. The unit is easy to use and maintain, does not need a portable water source to dilute the chemical and has a low chemical usage which cuts down on cost.
Nicholas Bhugon, SITA Australia
Cleanawater have been very helpful in getting the solution ordered and out the door to us as quickly as possible. All this in the midst of supply chain issues globally. It’s nice when things still, just, work!
Tom Filipcic, FUCHS Lubricants (Australasia) Pty. Ltd.
In combination with a wide range of operational controls, we have found that complaints from our neighbours have significantly reduced since the VapourGard was installed.

Frequently asked questions
Where does the wastewater go when I use my portable truck wash bay?
That depends on a few things, like where your site is located and what sort of wastewater you're disposing of. Stay compliment with your local water authorities and dispose of wastewater by:
- Contacting Cleanawater operators and making an arrangement for wastewater removal
- Obtaining a license to discharge to the sewer and discharge directly into the sewerage system
- Recycle the water with a pollutant-removing unit which will let you reuse the water
Discharge into a STEDS (septic tank effluent disposal scheme). Either you or a Cleanawater representative working on your behalf can contact the relevant authorities to confirm that the wastewater gets accepted.
How do Cleanawater portable truck wash bays treat water?
While we can tailor wash bays to particular needs, most industries have generic requirements. Our portable truck wash bay systems:
- Collect water in a tank. Oils present are then separated from the water, which is essential for remaining compliant with wastewater regulations.
- Remove dirt, large particles, and debris, such as plastic, by filtering it out of the water.
We can work with your team to see if any additional features are required for compliance. Get in touch with our team to find out more about how we can help with your specific needs.
I don't have access to a sewer system on my site. What can I do?
Even if you don't have sewer system access on your site, there may be alternate options for wastewater disposal. For example, wastewater from the wash bay can be stored in a holding tank. Then, licensed liquid waste collectors from Cleanawater can remove the wastewater in a way that compliment industry regulation.
