Each compartment, measuring 2m x 1m x 2m, incorporated raised chambers, access hatches, internal and external ladders, temperature gauges, pipework insulation drop arm float valves, screened connections and low-level access hatches to optimise functionality and compliance.
Stage 4 - Commissioning the New Commercial Water Tank

With the installation completed, the temporary bypass was then removed. As standardm, a thorough cleaning and disinfection was carried out to guarantee the hygiene and safety of the new commercial water tank and all associated pipework. Following this, the entire system underwent a comprehensive commissioning process, ensuring all components functioned seamlessly in service.
