| A Legionella Risk Assessment highlights
the necessary areas required for improvement to meet
those standards laid out by the HSC ACoP L8.
To ensure these standards are met, Wells Water Treatment
Services employs a highly trained and experienced team
of plumbers with a water hygiene background.
Where necessary Wells Water Treatment will supply temporary
tanks or bypass systems to maintain a constant water
supply to ensure normal business trading with minimal
disruption.
Major savings can be made by the re-coating or re-lining
of an existing tank, rather than a costly replacement.
Many systems need to be upgraded in accordance with
HSC L8 2000. New lids, insulation, screened overflows
and pipe work modifications to rectify stagnation are
just some of the methods which Wells Water Treatment
employs to improve water system hygiene levels.
Any new tank or refurbishment should conform
to the Water Regulations and have the following features:
- Servicing valves on the inlet and outlet pipes
- Lined or coated with a suitable impervious material
- A warning / overflow pipe with insect screen
- Screened air inlet
- A close fitting lid
- A sleeve for a vent pipe
- Insulation against frost and heat gain
The maintenance of cooling towers is one of
the essential requirements of the HSE code of practice
L8. Many older cooling towers do not conform to these
standards and require modification to enable maintenance
operations to be carried out.
The Wells Water Treatments service includes:
- Replacement of badly scaled or damaged cooling pack
- Upgrading of drift eliminators to higher efficiency
- Installation of access hatches to make the removal
of pack and drift eliminators easier when cleaning and
chlorinating
- Refurbishment of inlet louvers
- Refurbishment of tanks and sumps
- Installation of Dosing Equipment
- Installation and servicing of softening equipment
