Air Selangor is actively refurbishing inactive service reservoirs and pump houses to provide additional storage capacity to meet rising demand
KUALA LUMPUR: Pengurusan Air Selangor Sdn Bhd has taken initiatives to refurbish 164 service reservoirs and 55 pump houses in stages from 2017 to 2026.
These facilities were deactivated previously due to deteriorating conditions such as ageing, leaking and rusty tanks, as well as due to vandalism which led to missing critical equipment. As at December 2018, Air Selangor has carried out the refurbishment of 35 inactive service reservoirs and pump houses to improve the storage volume of potable water in the distribution network.
The refurbishment effort will help to improve the sustainability of water supply, particularly in water stressed areas, where demand is always high. This will also provide more storage reserve in times of water interruption due to scheduled maintenance or emergencies. Simply put, the duration of water interruption for customers can be minimised as these reservoirs act as reserve supplies for the premises in the vicinity.
