Pre-commissioning cleaning
What to Monitor and Why Monitoring HVAC water treatment systems is essential for Facilities Managers (FMs) aiming to maintain optimal performance and longevity of their heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems. Effective monitoring helps prevent issues such as corrosion, scaling, and microbial growth, which can lead to inefficiencies and increased operational costs. The Importance […]
Pseudomonas bacteria, commonly found in closed-circuit water systems, have become a widespread problem across the UK. If left unchecked, these bacteria can compromise the safety and efficiency of pipework and HVAC systems, leading to significant operational and financial challenges. While Pseudomonas can pose health risks in some settings, in closed-water systems, human exposure is minimal. […]

WCS’ e-book explains how continuous monitoring helps HVAC Continuous closed system monitoring is a holistic and technology-driven approach to HVAC system management in commercial systems, including hospitals, healthcare facilities, data centres, public sector building, MOD sites and universities, colleges and schools. Rather than using water samples to look for evidence of corrosion, real-time monitoring systems […]
Guardian Water Treatment has launched BG29i, an intelligent precommission cleaning package that helps fit out installers, mechanical engineers and consultants meet the requirements of BSRIA guide, BG29 2021 – Precommission Cleaning of Pipework. Incorporating Hevasure’s innovative real-time corrosion monitoring technology, Guardian’s BG29i will speed up the PCC process, combat pipe degradation and reduce uncertainty at […]
BG29 2020 is BSRIA’s guide to the Precommissioning Cleaning of Pipework Systems. The latest edition was released in April this year. The updated version of this important document included some significant additions in relation to corrosion monitoring in closed circuit pipework, a solution we have been championing for some time. The previous edition of BG29 […]
Checking water condition is essential for preventing corrosion in closed circuit systems – the pipes and components responsible for plumbing together water-based HVAC plant. Real-time corrosion monitoring tracks the parameters that can signify corrosive conditions, potentially stopping this issue in its tracks. Parameters including dissolved oxygen, pressure, pH and inhibitor levels are continuously monitored, giving […]
Guardian Water Treatment welcomes the latest addition of BSRIA’s guide to Precomissioning Cleaning of Pipework Systems – BG 29/2020. The sixth version of this important document was published on 30th April. It includes a range of new guidance in order to reflect changes in industry best practice since the last edition. Most notably for Guardian […]
Water is intrinsic to almost every aspect of our lives, from basic functions such as drinking and washing through to manufacturing, the built environment, heating and cooling; and even our use of the internet – every gigabyte of data we use has a water footprint of around 250 litres. London requires 2.6 billion litres of […]
For those responsible for the maintenance and management of HVAC water systems, industry guidance documents from organisations such as HSE and BSRIA provide an essential reference. Based on the latest British and European standards, these documents give best practice guidance and the latest thinking on the various stages of water treatment; from design and pre-commissioning […]
