Why do I need Hydrostatic Pressure Testing?
Before to the connection of a newly installed water mains pipe, Water Utility providers companies may require proof that the newly laid mains pipework does not have any issues with leakage.
Water providers have requirements in place for hydrostatic pressure testing to be carried prior to new connection to the providers main.
Water providers will require pressure testing certificates with full data logging and analysis.
The purpose of hydrostatic pressure testing any new water main or service connections is to primarily identify the structural integrity of the installation for any signs of leakage and to ascertain the compliance of the new main to be able to put into service.
Pressure testing new and existing pipework
Hydrostatic pressure testing is a proven method of testing all all types of pipework, cold mains, hot and cold pipework, central heating, underfloor heating etc. for leakages and defects.
When hydrostatic testing, pipe work is normally pressurised up to 1.5 times its working pressure, the pressure then monitored for drop or loss in the pressure. Any drop indicates if a leak is present. If the pressure holds it indicates the pipework is watertight.
