Mains connections to Sydney water
We can provide a new connection to the existing water main requiring drilling into the main while it remains operational, using specialized equipment to insert a new connection point. In some cases, the water main may be located across the road. In these instances, we use specialized equipment to bore under the road and install the new main-to-meter water pipe, eliminating the need to excavate the roadway and significantly reducing costs.
Pump installs and replacement
We supply and install complete pump sets to replace damaged or outdated systems, or we can replace individual components. Whether it’s removal and disposal of the old unit to new concrete plinth and pipework, we’ve got you covered
Hydrostatic testing
Hydrostatic pressure testing is a crucial step in evaluating and maintaining the reliability and integrity of both new and existing fire systems. This test helps detect leaks, cracks, and other defects that could compromise the performance of your hydrant system during an emergency
Street water main testing
We perform flow rates and pressure testing of street water mains which is essential for properly sizing of fire hydrants and pumps during the design phase. This process also helps identify any potential problems, providing valuable insights for fire design teams, building developers, and fire protection companies
Booster pump and flow testing
Our flow and booster pump flow testing is a process that measures the water flow rate from your fire system ensuring your system can meet the demands of a fire emergency. Typically conducted every five years, following a successful hydrostatic test, fire booster flow testing simulates fire brigade operations Due to the high flow and pressure demands, this test must be performed using a fire appliance This helps verify that there are no blockages while confirming that the required flow and pressure can be achieved for effective firefighting.
