Your water company delivers reasonably clean water to the entrance of your building, and from that point on, you are responsible for water safety. That involves quite a lot! Holland Water is happy to provide you with the tools you need to keep the water pure and safe. Everything from periodic inspections to advanced management techniques.
Clean and safe water is not a given. Water utilities use micro-membranes, flocculants, polyelectrolytes, dual-layer filters, ultraviolet light, iron chloride, activated carbon filters, aluminum salts, ultrafiltration, and so on. As a building manager, you are expected to achieve the same results with significantly fewer resources. That is a challenging task and requires smart solutions.
The main resources you do have at your disposal are also hardly effective. Colonization by bacteria, such as Legionella, mainly occurs in the biofilm on the inner walls of cold water pipes. Thermal management of the hot water supply and flushing the pipes have little to no effect on the biofilm in cold water pipes and the associated bacterial contamination risks. That’s a shame, because these conventional methods are also extremely expensive and environmentally damaging due to the waste of energy and water.
Conventional 'one-size-fits-all' management should make way for refined, technology-driven management that offers concrete solutions for the specific Legionella risks and/or problems of your building. Every water installation is different, and that’s why modern water management starts with a careful risk analysis and a tailor-made management plan. Depending on the building and risk profile, you implement a high-quality management technique at the heart of your system, ranging from a gatekeeper system based on UV-C or UF, to a treatment technique such as copper and silver ionization. Once the water quality is stable, you can scale down conventional methods such as thermal management and flushing to a minimum, thereby saving significantly on energy and water. Smarter and more sustainable, in other words.
We provide high-quality management techniques and related services to keep or make drinking and cooling water installations safe in a smart and sustainable way.
Holland Water ensures water safety for thousands of hospitals, care institutions, hotels, holiday parks, swimming pools, saunas, and ships around the world.
Management of collective water installations is not a one-sided activity aimed at a static situation, but a multifaceted process focused on a dynamic situation. This requires continuous monitoring, coordination, and calibration of the various management activities. That is why Holland Water builds it up layer by layer. And we have everything needed for this in-house.
We make no compromises on quality and compliance. Our advice, services, and techniques are therefore certified according to a range of assessment guidelines such as VCA, BRL 6010, BRL 14010-1, and BRL 14010-2. In addition, our biocides have long-term Ctgb approvals.
High-quality management techniques, real-time monitoring, and data analysis make the difference in drinking water and Legionella management. Smart management solves problems, is more sustainable, and puts an end to endless patching and makeshift solutions.
After implementing a well-thought-out management solution, our solution managers continuously monitor the dynamic processes of the water installation and, where necessary, adjust the management measures. In short, refined rather than coarse management.
Water safety is of course the first priority of the management plan, and we adjust the management techniques and activities accordingly until a stable and safe situation is achieved. That is certainly a relief.
If your installation is continuously monitored by a management system and a stable water quality has been achieved, conventional measures may be scaled back to a minimum level. This is how the sustainability of your legionella management begins.
Both patching things up and wasting energy and water unnecessarily cost a lot of money. Targeted solutions and stable water quality, combined with a lower hot water temperature and a less intensive flushing regime, reduce your operational costs.
Behind our ultrafiltration systems, UV-C solutions, patented copper and silver ionisation technology and other high-quality water technologies, there is an extraordinary team of brilliant minds.
Holland Water is blessed with a team of craftsmen who carefully assemble, configure, test, and install our water-tech systems. The technical engineers also perform maintenance on the systems themselves and ensure that your water installation is continuously monitored and/or treated.
A dedicated team of service providers works around the technical heart of Holland Water. The marketers inform you about our services, the consultants and account managers work with you to find the optimal solution, the customer managers process your orders, the solution managers monitor and calibrate your management solution, and furthermore ensure compliance with current laws and regulations.
