Public Health Engineering in Cambridge
At Delta M&E, our Public Health Engineering services ensure the safe, efficient, and reliable management of water and drainage within your building projects. Often integrated with our mechanical engineering offering, these essential services are critical for hygiene, health, safety, and regulatory compliance.
Core Public Health Design and Systems
We provide expert design and consultancy for all internal and external public health systems:
Potable Water Systems: Design of hot and cold water distribution systems, including boosted cold water systems, storage tanks, calorifiers, and instantaneous heating solutions. We focus on maintaining water quality, pressure, and temperature integrity throughout the building.
Foul Drainage Systems: Detailed design of gravity and pumped foul water drainage systems, including soil, waste, and vent pipework, ensuring efficient flow and compliance with public sewer connections.
Surface and Rainwater Management: Specification and design of rainwater harvesting systems and efficient surface water drainage solutions, including sustainable urban drainage systems (SuDS) where applicable, to mitigate flood risk and promote water conservation.
Specialist Water Services: Design of specialised systems for specific building needs, such as greywater recycling for non-potable uses, pure water systems for laboratories, and water treatment systems to prevent scale and corrosion.
Health, Safety, and Compliance Focus
Our designs prioritise health, safety, and long-term asset integrity:
Water Safety (Legionella): Designing systems to minimise the risk of Legionella and other waterborne pathogens by optimising temperature control, flow, and reducing dead legs in pipework.
Acoustic & Vibration Control: Integrating measures to minimise noise from pumps, water flow, and drainage systems, contributing to occupant comfort.
System Sizing and Economy: Utilizing advanced techniques to accurately size pipework and equipment, preventing oversizing, reducing capital expenditure, and ensuring water economy.
Delta M&E provides the foundation for a hygienic, functional, and compliant water and drainage infrastructure in your built environment.
