Reservoir Refurbishment with Acothane

Reservoir Refurbishment with Acothane

CSC Services completed a service reservoir refurbishment with acothane. 

Service reservoirs hold clean water after treatment, before it’s piped to end users. They are designed to keep the water safe from contamination. As service reservoirs provide a buffer within the water supply system so that water supplies can be maintained across periods of varying demand, it’s vital they’re kept in optimum working order. 

Specialist coatings are required to protect such structures from various types of corrosion and erosion. Any coating applied to such a structure must must be compliant with Regulation 31 set by the Drinking Water Inspectorate (DWI). This ensures that water suppliers, when producing and distributing drinking water, only use products and substances that do not cause any detrimental effects to the safety or quality of the drinking water. 

Acothane DW is a polyurethane coating approved by the Drinking Water Inspectorate. It is a complete solvent-free technology that has a tough impact resistant finish that will resist the growth of micro-aquatic organisms and protect against periodic cleaning regimes.
