Borehole & Private Water
Prodose are trusted by industry professionals including major utility suppliers to deliver systems that provide reliable supplies of clean drinking water.
We can also bring our chemical expertise and technical know-how to your private water supply.
The increasing cost of water from utility providers and difficulties in securing new connections to the grid has resulted in an increase in the number of private water supplies being registered in the UK.
Of course, if you establish your own water supply, you have to conform to regulations. Local authorities are scrutinising private operators more and more to ensure that their water supplies are safe.
If your local authority detects E.Coli, Legionella, Otal Coliforms, Pseudomonas or TVCs in your water, then you will need a dosing system capable of neutralising these pathogens.
At Prodose we design and commission borehole water treatment systems that make use of sodium hypochlorite, usually by means of an electrochlorinator. Alongside this technology, we would also install equipment to monitor residual levels of free chlorine. This means you can always be sure that your water has disinfectant potential.
Our systems for private water supplies make use of exactly the same technology we deploy in industrial situations, just on a smaller scale.
For peace of mind and to be sure than your borehole water is both safe to drink and compliant with all regulations, get in touch with Prodose. Our engineers will be pleased to talk about your specific situation and how we can help.
