FlowGuardian®

FlowGuardian®

BREEAM WAT 02 and WAT 03 major water leak detection

Water is a precious resource and underground leaks can be responsible for significant water wastage if left unchecked. FlowGuardian® is a robust water leak detection and high-usage alarm system that measures mains water flow between a site boundary and a property. FlowGuardian® is a sustainable water conservation solution, saving precious water, saving on water bills.

Designed to help achieve the requirements of BREEAM WAT 02 and WAT 03.

FlowGuardian® uses two flow meters, the limits of which can be set on installation and actively monitors the mains water supply to buildings. One flow meter is situated at the site boundary and the other within the building after the stopcock (the control tap for your mains water supply).

Identifies excessive water usage

The system monitors the pipework between the external and internal flow meters for leaks and uses the flow rates and volumes from the internal flow meter to identify excessive water usage. The system provides a sustainable, water conservation solution. FlowGuardian® can help to achieve recognition and can earn one BREEAM credit following assessment and certification. 

The programmable, wall-mounted control panel has a simple, interactive push-button LCD display with audible buzzer alarm. All alarms are displayed continuously until corrected and reset on the system.

Andel's Floodline® leak detection systems provide the optimum solution for protecting any building of any size from internal leaks. Combined with FlowGuardian®, the system meets the requirements of BREEAM water monitoring, water leak detection and water flow control. FlowGuardian® can be installed as a stand-alone system or can easily be integrated into a Floodline® leak detection monitoring system providing a sustainable solution to water usage.

 

FlowGuardian® can achieve BREEAM credits

FlowGuardian® provides flow monitoring and water leak detection in line with the defined BREEAM standards WAT02 and WAT03 and can earn BREEAM credits subject to a successful audit by an authorised third-party assessor.

WAT 02 water monitoring

The aim of WAT 02 is to ensure water consumption can be monitored and managed, and therefore encourage reductions. One credit – Compliant water monitoring system

WAT 03 water leak detection and prevention

The aim of WAT 03 is to reduce the impact of water leaks that may otherwise go undetected. One credit - Compliant leak detection system One credit - Compliant flow control devices
