Water supply Boreholes

-Do you have high water costs?

-Do you use large quantities of water?

-Are you affected by Hosepipe bans?

-Do you have low mains water pressure or disrupted supply issues?

 

If so, why not consider a water supply Borehole. You can extract up 20,000 litres per day without the need for an abstraction license

 

 An estimate can usually be produced with just your sites postcode or coordinates

What is Iron bacteria?

 

Iron bacteria is the name given for naturally occurring organisms that feed on dissolved iron in water.

Whilst iron bacteria is not harmful to humans, it can be unsightly, give water a foul smell and taste and cause irreparable damage to your wells pump and switching system.

If left to grow it will clog up pipework and reduce the water yield from your Borehole.

This puts extra stress on your pump and ultimately ceases the pump motor.

 

How do I get rid of Iron bacteria?

 

A.W.S Offer a 48 Hour service to chemically dissolve the iron bacteria and then flush it from your system. The treatment will clear all pipework and equipment, clean the well casing and increase water yield from your Borehole.

What is a water supply Borehole?

 

A water supply borehole is a cylindrical underground structure, made by erecting a drilling rig to excavate through the ground until you enter the water table to a suitable depth.

Once the drilling is complete, a Lining (Well casing.) is lowered in to create a sturdy wall to the Borehole. Aggregate is then packed around the casing and towards the top, a grout seal is created to stop contamination of the water table from the surface.

A submersible pump is lowered down into the water, suspended on its own pipework which is used to pump water to the surface.
