Water Treatment for Schools

Purpose-built water treatment for schools — sized for Kenyan source water.

Boarding schools carry a duty of care — bacterial contamination in kitchens or dorm taps spreads fast. Reliable disinfection plus a soft, low-TDS supply keeps students healthy and boilers efficient.

We handle survey, design, KEBS-compliant equipment supply, installation, commissioning and after-sales service across Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania and Rwanda.

Common water challenges

  • Waterborne disease outbreaks
  • Scale in boilers and geysers
  • Peak-hour demand in dorms
  • Budget constraints

  3. 3
    Supply & installation
    KEBS-compliant equipment, plumbing and control panels.
  4. 4
    Commissioning & training
    Handover with SOPs and operator training.
  5. 5
    Maintenance & monitoring
    Scheduled service, membrane care and quarterly water tests.

Regulatory considerations

  • KEBS KS EAS 12:2018 potable water quality standards
  • WRA borehole abstraction permits and monitoring

Frequently asked questions

Why does water treatment for schools need specialised water treatment?+

Untreated Kenyan source water often carries hardness, iron, sediment or bacteria that damage plumbing, appliances and reputation. A properly sized treatment train protects both people and equipment.

How long does installation take?+

Most commercial systems are commissioned in 2–5 days once tanks and civil works are ready. Larger industrial plants take 2–6 weeks depending on scope.

Do you offer service contracts?+

Yes — annual maintenance contracts (AMCs) cover membrane care, media replacement, dosing chemicals and quarterly water testing.
