Cleaning your water tanks matters
Any site that has water tanks to which the public have access will require annual cleaning and disinfection of the tanks. This is generally essential for insurance, and as an environmental health requirement. Cleaning and disinfection is also necessary when a new tank or plumbing system is installed, in order to meet the requirements of water bye-laws and the HSE L8 Legionella risk guidelines.
This work should be carried out in line with the relevant British Standard, BS8558, in order to comply with BS EN 806. Our engineers have the knowledge, skills, training, and experience to carry out this work. We’ve been inspecting, cleaning, disinfection and certificating water tanks and plumbing systems for over three decades.
Disinfecting water pipelines
When new water supply pipelines are installed, They must be disinfected in accordance with BS8558 to the relevant specification to comply with BS EN 806. This must be undertaken before the water companies will allow connection to the water mains, in order to avoid contamination to the system from the new pipeline. We can carry out the work quickly and efficiently, getting your new water supply pipeline ready for connection to the mains.
