Flushing the Piping
Flushing the piping system to clear out dirt, installation residue, and sediment that built up during construction.
New or renovated drinking-water piping must be disinfected before water is put into service. A contractor who needs Form 4 is required to hold a pipe disinfection certificate. Kesar Digum disinfects the piping with approved agents, takes a verification sample tested at an ISO 17025 accredited laboratory, and issues the disinfection certificate required to occupy the building - nationwide.
New drinking-water piping picks up dirt, welding residue, and bacteria during installation, and it must be disinfected before drinking water is introduced. A contractor seeking Form 4 and building occupancy is required to present a pipe disinfection certificate. Kesar Digum performs the disinfection with approved agents, takes a verification sample tested at an accredited laboratory, and issues the disinfection certificate - so the system is ready for occupancy and the water is safe from the very first moment.

Full DetailsIssuing a pipe disinfection certificate based on the sampling results - the document required to obtain Form 4 and occupy the building.
Pipe disinfection and a disinfection certificate are required in several situations. These are the most common:
A contractor who needs Form 4 to occupy a building must present a drinking-water pipe disinfection certificate as a condition for receiving it.
Every new drinking-water piping system must be disinfected before water is put into use, to ensure water quality from day one.
Renovating a water system or replacing sections of piping calls for disinfection and verification sampling before returning to service.
Connecting a new internal line to the water network requires flushing and disinfection, so it doesn't introduce contamination into the existing system.
New piping that hasn't been disinfected carries contamination straight into the drinking water. Here's what's at stake:
Dirt, installation residue, and bacteria left in new piping pass straight into the water that reaches the tap.
Without a pipe disinfection certificate, the process with the authority can't be completed, and occupancy is put off until disinfection is done.
The contractor is responsible for the drinking-water quality in the building they hand over, and un-disinfected piping exposes them to defects and claims.
