Tank / System Cleaning & Disinfection Print

 

 

System Cleaning and Disinfection
The cleanliness and microbiological quality of water systems is paramount. Sludge, scale and corrosion deposits will inhibit heat transfer if not removed, and our clients know that inhibited heat transfer will lead to excessive energy costs. Similarly, such deposits will also provide an environment for bacteria, including Legionella pneumophila, to thrive.

Quite apart from the engineering implications, scale, corrosion, sludge deposits, and microbiological fouling must be regularly removed from systems, particularly cooling systems, under the requirement of L8 - "Legionnaires Disease, The Control Of Legionella Bacteria in Water Systems, Approved Code of Practice and Guidance", from the Health and Safety Commission.

Cooling Towers
Our site teams have experience of all types of cooling tower, from the smallest evaporative condenser to systems on an industrial scale. Their work is carried so as to ensure the client’s downtime is minimal, and disruption to process operation is reduced.

Tank Improvements
Part of a building manager’s responsibility is to ensure water tanks comply with water by laws and minimum standards required by L8 Legionella legislation. Aquarius Water Systems can provide a tank improvement service to include re-coating of tanks, installation of new lids, fitting of insect screens, re-routing of pipework, and tank replacement.

This work is always carried out by our trained and qualified personnel.

Building Disinfection
Whether it’s for a single storey business unit or a towering corporate headquarters, we provide a service second to none. Our engineers will carry out cleaning of water storage tanks and storage calorifiers. Complete water systems are disinfected, all to the current legislation, or clients’ specifications.

We have long experience in making sure the building users are not inconvenienced by our work and systems are back on line in the shortest possible time.

Certification
Not only do we provide detailed work reports and certification, we make recommendations for improvements which our engineers identify whilst on site -another way in which we assist our clients with meeting the exacting legal requirements now imposed upon them.

Health & Safety
Not only do our engineers use the latest Personal Protective Equipment, our own rigorous Health & Safety Management System ensures that method statements and risk assessment are carefully adhered to, for the protection if our employees our clients, and the public at large.
