ABS Plumbing & Heating
Private Water Supply Installation & Repair
ABS Plumbing & Heating provides specialized water treatment and private water supply plumbing services throughout Perthshire. We cater to residents of rural properties by delivering tailored solutions to meet their domestic water supply requirements.
A private water supply refers to a system that is not managed by a water utility company. Approximately 3% of Scotland’s population lacks access to a public mains water supply and instead depends on private sources. These private supplies are predominantly found in the more isolated and rural areas of the country, although they are not limited to these regions. The sources for private water supplies can include wells, boreholes, springs, streams, rivers, or lakes, and may also incorporate storage facilities or tanks. Such a supply can cater to an individual property or extend to serve multiple properties and businesses through an interconnected network of pipes.
Upon contacting ABS Plumbing & Heating, our team will conduct an onsite visit to perform a comprehensive assessment of your water. This includes testing for pH levels, iron and manganese concentrations, hardness, odor, turbidity, and color. Additionally, we will evaluate the flow rates of any water pumps and the yield from your supply to ensure that the recommended filtration systems are suitable for your specific needs.
Our services encompass the entire process, starting from the initial site survey to the installation and ongoing maintenance of your water treatment systems, including boreholes and spring water supplies. We also provide maintenance for third-party equipment installed by other companies and maintain a diverse inventory of consumable products to support systems of various sizes.
Furthermore, ABS Plumbing & Heating offers a customized water tank cleaning and disinfection service. Our team is trained in confined space entry and has completed extensive professional courses with the Water Management Society. We are equipped to provide effective solutions for eliminating harmful bacteria and biofilms from your private water supply system.
