Emergency Water
A large portion of our water supply business revolves around the deployment of emergency water and resources on behalf of our water utility and MoD clients, where we form part or their emergency plan or local response plan.
We provide an alternative drinking water supply in the most appropriate form to suit each situation. Water Direct supplies quality assured bottled water, bulk water by using 26,000, 15,000 and 10000 litre dedicated drinking water tankers, and potable water supplies using a range of water bowsers. We also supply and fill static water tanks which provide a temporary water storage solution to either the streets for public consumption, or to critical national infrastructure such as power stations and hospitals.
During the floods of 2007, we were pleased to accommodate Severn Trent Water’s request for emergency assistance. Within 12 hours of their plea we had deployed 7 vehicles, 9 staff, over 100 small water tanks for road side deployment, 5 x 10000 litre water tanks and 120000 litres of bottled water. By hour 48 our commitment had risen to 20 staff, 120 small water tanks and over 3 million litres of bottled water.
Water Direct provides an assured response to any emergency water request or to water loss incidents resulting from interruption or contamination of the existing mains water supply.
