Filtration, Circulation & Water Quality
Filtration, Circulation & Water Quality: a project-specific service for clients who want a technically coordinated water environment rather than a generic installation.
LWD connects the design intent to measurable project inputs, equipment decisions, construction interfaces, commissioning and future maintenance for filtration, circulation & water quality.
Connected capabilities
Workflow
- Define the user brief, site conditions and operating target
- Translate the brief into design and technical requirements
- Coordinate hydraulics, materials, equipment and controls
- Review construction interfaces, access and maintenance
- Commission, balance and document the operating system
Decision inputs
- total water volume and filtration flow
- turnover calculation and pump duty
- filter media, skimmers, drains and balance volume
- water-quality monitoring and treatment
- backwash/cartridge maintenance and access
Deliverables
- Project-specific design direction
- Technical decision and coordination points
- Equipment/material requirements
- Implementation and commissioning sequence
- Maintenance and future-upgrade considerations
Technical focus
- CDC MAHC uses total water volume divided by filtration flow for turnover calculation in applicable aquatic facilities.
- EPA identifies sand/glass, cartridge and sorptive media as common filtration approaches and notes maintenance affects water efficiency.
- Flow turndown must preserve applicable water-quality and code requirements.
- Pump, filter and pipe losses must be evaluated as one hydraulic system.
