Consultancy And Mechanical Services
Whether it’s a new build, refurbishment, or phased development, construction projects often face a unique set of water system issues:
​
-
New Pipework Installations need to be disinfected before use to prevent bacterial growth once live.
-
Temporary Water Supplies are often installed during build phases and can become high-risk without proper maintenance.
-
Phased Construction creates sections of pipework that may sit unused, leading to stagnation and bacterial growth.
-
​Irregular Use Before Handover means systems may not be in full operation for weeks or months, allowing conditions for Legionella to develop.
-
System Complexity large or multi-storey sites require careful planning to avoid dead legs and ensure even water circulation.
-
Project Delays unplanned downtime can impact the water system's safety and require re-treatment.
-
Compliance Pressure all water systems must meet British Standards and water safety guidelines before occupancy.
-
Coordination between contractors such as plumbing, mechanical and hygiene teams is essential to prevent risks during installation and commissioning.
