Each cubicle has a solid, sealed concrete floor fitted with a drain leading to the quarantine drainage system. Note: it is important that the drain is situated at the lowest point in the floor to ensure water runs into it.

All waste and run-off water is collected by a quarantine drainage system. Water is stored in two underground tanks from where it is pumped into a heat treatment tank and treated before being pumped into above ground storage tanks for disposal. |

Each cubicle has its own water supply ensuring that watering cans do not need to be moved between cubicles. |
