Water Supplies for Festivals and Events
Events and festivals are now an established part of the British summer. Rock concerts, folk festivals, classical recitals, they are not only here to stay, but are a growing trend. As the leading temporary water supply company in the country we supply water to many different types of events.
The bigger this industry gets the more conscious the organisers are becoming of their obligations. There is now legislation relating to the quality of water supplies at events, which organisers are now having to adhere to. Safe drinking water needs to be available to the public as defined within the Water Safety Regulations (HSG195) which state that;
- Where possible drinking water should be provided from a mains supply, but where this is not available, an alternative quality assured water supply should be used.
- All water dispensing equipment should be cleaned and maintained
- A sufficient number of drinking water points should be made available
- Drinking water should be within easy access of catering facilities
- Water points should be clearly marked and unobstructed
Water Direct has the expertise and dedicated drinking water equipment, comprising of water tanks, water tankers, water pumps, and water distribution points which when combined with our on site plumbing facility ensures a complete quality assured service to any event.
On many occasions, event sites have a mains water supply which is not adequate enough to provide the volume of water required for the period of the festival. In these situations we are able to supply large volume water tanks which act as temporary reservoirs, which then feed the site infrastructure, supplimenting the piped supply.
