Water Tank Replacement Case Study: A Yorkshire School Success Story
A Yorkshire secondary school faced significant issues with their water tank. Hydraclean stepped in to resolve these issues, ensuring improved water safety and regulatory compliance. This project highlights our expertise in water tank replacement for schools.
Why Old Water Tanks Have to Be Replaced
- Frequent leaks that result in water wastage and disruptions.
- Health risks due to compromised water quality.
- Inadequate water capacity to meet the needs of the school.
- Non-compliance with modern regulatory standards, leading to safety violations.
In this case, the school required a reliable, modern solution to ensure an uninterrupted, safe water supply while maintaining day-to-day operations.
Hydraclean’s Tailored Solution for Water Tank Replacement
Hydraclean proposed a GRP sectional water tank to resolve all the issues the school faced. The project followed a structured process:
1. Safe Decommissioning and Removal
Our team began by draining the old tank and removing it safely.
We ensured the process was free from contamination and followed
strict environmental protocols.
2. On-Site Assembly of a New GRP Water Tank
The new tank, made of glass-reinforced plastic (GRP), was built on-site to fit the school’s existing infrastructure.
- Enhanced safety features with access panels and ladders.
- Durable materials for long-term performance.
3. Customised Pipework and High-Quality Connections
We designed customised pipework to fit the new tank perfectly. Insect-screened connectors and high-quality valves were added to prevent leaks and ensure smooth water flow.
4. Leak Testing and Sanitisation
After installation, the system was rigorously tested for leaks and sanitised to meet the highest safety standards.
5. Insulation and Energy Efficiency Upgrades
To improve the tank’s performance, we insulated all pipework using foil-backed Rockwool. This reduced energy consumption and maintained consistent water temperatures throughout the year.
Results: Improved Water Safety, Efficiency, and Compliance
Upon completing the project, the school benefited from:
- Reliable water supply, free from leaks, with consistent pressure.
- Enhanced safety, meeting all regulatory standards.
- Energy efficiency, thanks to upgraded insulation that reduced energy costs.
- Easy maintenance, with better access for routine inspections.
