A pontoon is more than just a docking space for your boat; it’s a hub where you can access all the essential utilities needed for a comfortable and convenient boating experience. At the heart of these amenities are pedestal service units. These compact yet powerful units are designed to provide easy access to vital services such as electricity and water right at your pontoon.
Pedestal service units play a pivotal role in enhancing the functionality and convenience of your pontoon. They serve as centralised points that directly distribute essential utilities such as electricity and water to your docked vessel.
At Micks Marine Maintenance, we understand the importance of these pedestal service units and offer a professional supply and installation service to meet your needs. With our expertise and commitment to quality, you can count on us to keep your pontoon fully equipped and ready for all your boating adventures.
The Role of Pedestal Service Units
Pedestal service units are like the nerve centre of your pontoon, ensuring that every time you dock, you have immediate access to clean water for washing down your boat or filling up tanks and reliable electricity for powering equipment, lighting, or charging devices. Their strategic placement on the pontoon makes accessing these services convenient, while their robust design ensures they can withstand the harsh marine environment.
Providing these essential utilities directly at the pontoon enhances your docking space’s functionality and significantly improves your boating experience. Whether you’re returning from a day out on the water or preparing for an overnight stay onboard, readily available services can make a world of difference.
Key Features and Benefits of Pedestal Service Units
Pedestal service units come with a host of features designed to enhance your boating experience:
Electricity Supply
Pedestal service units are equipped with electrical outlets that provide a reliable power source right at your pontoon. This means you can easily charge batteries, use electric equipment, or illuminate your pontoon without having to rely on onboard power supplies. The electrical circuits in these units are designed with safety features such as circuit breakers and residual current devices (RCDs) to protect against electrical faults and ensure safe usage.
Water Supply
In addition to electricity, pedestal service units also provide a direct water supply. This is particularly useful for activities such as washing down your boat after a day out on the water, filling up onboard water tanks, or even simply rinsing off saltwater-soaked gear. The units are typically fitted with standard hose connectors, making it easy to connect a hose and access fresh water.
Robust Construction
Built to withstand the harsh marine environment, pedestal service units are typically made from corrosion-resistant materials like stainless steel or high-grade plastics. This ensures their longevity and reliable performance, even in salty sea air conditions.
Safety Measures
Safety is paramount when dealing with utilities like electricity and water. Pedestal service units are designed with safety features such as circuit breakers and RCDs to protect against electrical faults. They also have weatherproof covers to protect the outlets from moisture and dust.
User-friendly Design
Pedestal service units are designed to be user-friendly. Their height is usually set at a convenient level for easy access, and the outlets are clearly marked and easy to use. Some units also come with built-in lighting for better visibility during nighttime use.
