THE CHALLENGE

Replace storage tanks from Basement 

Water Tank Installation in London – The challenge began with installing water storage tanks that spanned from the basement to the 53rd floor of the building. Due to the unusual design of the structure and the densely populated, restricted area, we faced several significant obstacles. As a result, we had to manage the entire process, which involved not only supplying and delivering the tanks but also positioning them using cranage and completing the final installation. In addition, the project required the installation of levelling steels, intricate connections, and the establishment of reliable radio communication to ensure smooth operations throughout each phase. Despite these complexities, our team successfully navigated the challenges and ensured the project’s completion.

The solution involved installing seven GRP Water Tanks – One Piece, Hot Press Sectional, and Totally Internally Flanged. To begin with, the process focused on ensuring the timely supply and delivery of the water storage tanks to each designated floor within The Shard. Once the tanks were delivered, we concentrated on establishing intricate connections to facilitate proper functionality and ensure seamless integration with the building’s water supply system. Additionally, we implemented a robust radio communication system, which proved essential for maintaining continuous coordination and enhancing efficiency throughout the installation process. As a result, each phase of the project proceeded smoothly, ultimately ensuring the water tanks were fully functional and seamlessly integrated into the building’s infrastructure.

Sufficient Water Storage Capacity – High-volume water tanks provide a reliable water supply, especially during periods of high demand or in areas prone to water scarcity. They ensure that water remains available when needed the most.

Water Conservation – Storing rainwater in large tanks reduces reliance on the mains water supply, conserving water and easing the strain on water treatment facilities. Homeowners can repurpose rainwater for cleaning, watering plants, and flushing toilets, contributing to overall conservation efforts.

Emergency Preparedness – Water tanks help households stay self-sufficient during fires or natural disasters. They provide an independent water source, ensuring essential needs are met even when external systems fail.

Cost Savings – By using rainwater harvesting systems with large tanks, homeowners can lower their utility bills. This reduction in reliance on the mains water supply offers long-term financial savings.

Regulatory Compliance – Installing water tanks ensures compliance with local ordinances and guidelines, particularly in areas with water restrictions. Water tanks help meet regulatory requirements while offering a sustainable water solution.

Reducing Home and Energy Bills – Owning a water tank lets you reduce water consumption from your standard supplier, all while still using their services when necessary. This balance lowers both water and energy costs over time.

Less Waste – A water tank captures rainwater that would otherwise go to waste. By collecting and storing it, homeowners make use of a natural resource that would otherwise be lost.

Water Supply Alternative – Owning a water tank helps resolve various water supply issues. Often, the water from the tank supplements the standard supply, offering a practical alternative when needed.
