Look at storage and treatment together
A larger tank may help with short demand peaks, but it does not create extra source water. Filtration, any UV stage, pumps and storage controls need to work as one system.
JN Environmental · Private water supply specialists
Full occupancy puts a water system under a different load from a quiet weekday. Showers, laundry and cleaning can all call for water at once. Treatment and pumping need to cope with that pattern.
Discuss your borehole supplyTell us about pitches, lodges, shower blocks, laundry and any other buildings on the supply. Peak flow is more useful than the number of people on the booking sheet alone.
Keep the borehole records, pump details and any yield or recovery information with the raw-water analysis. Treatment has to suit both the measured water quality and the flow the borehole can sustain. Where equipment needs backwashing, its water demand belongs in the calculation too. A larger pump is not proof that the borehole can support a larger site.
A larger tank may help with short demand peaks, but it does not create extra source water. Filtration, any UV stage, pumps and storage controls need to work as one system.
Agree who checks the plant room, how alarms are noticed and which valves isolate each part of the site. Clear labels and a service record help the person dealing with a fault during a busy weekend.
Give the full site address and postcode, the buildings on the supply and who can provide access. For a let or shared property, include the caretaker or managing contact when explaining how checks and servicing are organised. Our team is based in Bury; scope and current availability are agreed for the individual site.
Send the site postcode, recent water results if available and clear photographs of the whole installation. We will discuss the proposed work and availability before a visit is arranged.
For the source itself, include: borehole records, sustainable yield, pump duty, treatment and distribution.
There is no need to guess the fault or order replacement equipment first. Describe what happens, when it happens and what has changed.
Yes. Include water results, equipment labels, a simple site layout and the symptoms at busy times. We assess the existing arrangement before discussing replacement equipment.
Not necessarily. Low pressure can involve the pump, pipe size, filters, controls or the available source water. We need to find where the restriction occurs.
No. Some supplies need treatment for measured issues such as iron, manganese or pH as well as suitable sediment control and disinfection. The analysis and required flow should drive the selection, rather than a standard bundle of equipment.
This advice also covers caravan parks, touring parks and campsites. The proposal follows how the supply is used, rather than the name on the booking page or farm gate.
Include the property postcode, the buildings served and the problem or upgrade you have in mind.
