Backup generators are one of those things you hardly notice – until you truly need them. Whether it’s a hospital, data centre, or office block, uninterrupted power is non-negotiable. And when the grid goes down, your diesel generator becomes the unsung hero.

But here’s the catch: Modern generators, designed with advanced fuel injection systems and tighter tolerances to meet strict emissions standards, require higher-quality fuel. While this technology improves efficiency and reduces environmental impact, it also makes these machines more sensitive than ever to fuel quality. That’s why clean diesel isn’t just a “nice to have” – it’s essential.

Protect Your Investment
Contaminated fuel can damage injectors, pumps, and filters, leading to costly repairs and reduced reliability. Fuel polishing removes water, sludge, and microbes, keeping diesel clean and your equipment protected.

Maximise Performance
Clean, polished fuel burns efficiently, reducing consumption and emissions. Scheduled fuel polishing helps modern generators run smoothly, saving money while supporting environmental standards.

Prevent Costly Downtime
In an outage, you need power instantly. Polished diesel ensures your generator starts first time and runs reliably, giving you confidence when it matters most.

Think of it this way: you wouldn’t put cheap, dirty oil in a high-performance sports car. The same principle applies to your generator.

A Smart Maintenance Strategy
Regular fuel testing and a Fuel Polishing should be core parts of your facility’s resilience plan. It’s not just maintenance — it’s risk management. By safeguarding your fuel supply, you safeguard your operations, protect your investment, and gain peace of mind.

What Is Fuel Polishing?
Even the best diesel degrades over time. Left unchecked, water, sediment, and microbial growth can build up in your storage tanks, creating the perfect recipe for clogged filters and engine damage.

Fuel polishing is a specialist process that cleans your stored diesel without the need for disposal or replacement. Using advanced filtration and separation technology, it removes water, sludge, and contaminants, restoring fuel to a clean, reliable state.

The Benefits of WASP Fuel Polishing:
Extend Equipment Life – protect injectors, pumps, and filters from damage.
Save Money – avoid costly fuel replacement and expensive repairs.
Stay Compliant – meet strict emissions standards with cleaner-burning diesel.
Be Prepared – ensure your generator starts first time, every time.
