If your home, farm or holiday let gets its water from a borehole, spring or well, this oneโ€™s worth a read.

The Drinking Water Inspectorateโ€™s latest report found E. coli or Enterococci in 451 private water supplies across England last year. It also found that fewer than half of private supply risk assessments are up to date.

Mains water is tested constantly. Private supplies rely on owners keeping on top of things, so regular sampling and properly maintained treatment, like UV systems, really matter.

We test, treat and service private water supplies across Lancashire, Cumbria and the North West. Call us on 01524 66512.

A leisure centre in Jersey had to close for a few days recently after routine water testing picked up Legionella in some of its showers and basins. Nobody has been reported ill, and the pools themselves were fine.

The reassuring part is that the checks worked. Testing caught it early, so the site could be cleaned and retested before it became a bigger problem.

If you look after a building with showers, water tanks or outlets that donโ€™t get used much, we can help with Legionella risk assessments and water testing. Give us a call on 01524 66512.

Out with the old, in with the new. Weโ€™ve just replaced a tired pool pump at a local school with a new one and put in fresh pipework while we were at it. Should keep their pool running properly for years to come.

October half-term is a good time to get pool plant work done without disrupting lessons. If your schoolโ€™s pool needs a check, give us a call on 01524 66512.

Not all of our water sampling happens on dry land.

Our engineers also take drinking water samples on board ships while they're in dock. Ships store their own water in tanks, and it can sit there for a while, so it's checked just like the water in a building.

The samples go off to a UKAS accredited lab, and we go through the results with the client afterwards.

If you'd like to know more, give us a call on 01524 66512.

If you look after a building with cold water storage tanks, now's a good time to get them checked before winter.

Tanks should be inspected at least once a year. Sediment and debris build up over time, and that gives bacteria something to grow on. If a tank needs it, we clean and disinfect it and give you a certificate for your records.

For schools, October half term is ideal while the building's quiet.

Give us a call on 01524 66512 and we can book you in.

Danny had a trip over to the east coast last week, fitting a new break tank at a caravan park.

The pool was being topped up automatically straight from the mains. The concern was that, in the right conditions, chlorinated water could be drawn back out of the pool and into the supply. That's not something you want happening.

The break tank separates the two with an air gap, so there's no way for pool water to find its way back. It's a neat job from Danny as always.

If you'd like us to take a look at your pool or spa setup, give us a call on 01524 66512.

Heading into winter, a lot of buildings see quieter periods, schools over the holidays, hotels with seasonal closures, offices running with fewer people in. That means some water outlets get used a lot less than usual.

Water that sits still for long periods is exactly the kind of condition Legionella can take hold in. A simple weekly flushing routine for rarely used taps and outlets makes a real difference.

If you're not sure your building's covered for this over the coming months, we're happy to help.

A question that comes up fairly often: when does a water system actually need chlorinating?

It's usually triggered by something specific, a system that's been out of use for a while, a new installation, discoloured water, or a positive result from testing. It's not something every water system needs as a matter of course.

If you're not sure whether your situation calls for it, give us a ring and we can talk it through.

Under UK health and safety law, businesses with water systems need to appoint a "competent person" to manage Legionella risk. It doesn't have to be an engineer or specialist, it just needs to be someone with the right knowledge, training and authority to make sure controls are actually carried out.

Worth checking your business has this clearly assigned, and that it's documented.

One of our engineers fitted this Fairland inverter heat pump a while back, to keep this pool at a steady, comfortable temperature.

Inverter heat pumps like this one run more efficiently than older-style heaters, since they adjust their output rather than working flat out constantly. That means lower running costs without compromising on water temperature.

If your pool heating's due an upgrade, get in touch and we can talk through your options.
