  • Xylem's rental pumps offer a fast response and are available for everything from drought to disaster control in the event of flooding

 

  • Europe's largest rental fleet includes more than 6,000 assets available across 80 sites

 

  • Systems available for rent include ozone and UV products for disinfecting cooling water

 

Flooding due to heavy rains, prolonged drought or temporary projects with changing wastewater conditions requires fast and flexible solutions, prompting water technology company Xylem to offer all of its products and services for rent.

 

Xylem understands that the priority is to keep businesses operational and prevent downtime that results in additional cost. It has therefore set up the largest rental hub in Europe to provide fast, on-demand assistance, including expert support and on-site installation.

 

Xylem has chosen its rental sites strategically for fast distribution and installation, to ensure that critical situations can be resolved quickly.

 

"Unfortunately, due to climate change, there is a risk that heavy rainfall can cause damage to wastewater infrastructure or to communities' drinking water networks. Now, we can cover all of these demands and ensure continued operation with a fast response service and installation," explains Andy Grewar, General Manager Service & Rental, Xylem Water Solutions UK&I.

 

Most water challenges can be resolved immediately thanks to Xylem's extensive product range and the many applications covered by its Godwin, Flygt and Wedeco products, which address water removal, flood protection or disinfection and wastewater treatment challenges. During long periods of drought products are available for rent that will prevent downtime and secure a constant supply of water.

 

"When industrial parks rely on water from adjacent rivers or water bodies, our Godwin self-priming diesel pumps or Flygt's electric centrifugal pumps can compensate sinking water levels with a temporary solution," adds Andy.

 

With pumping and treatment equipment featuring the latest technology available from its new European rental hub, Xylem's rental solutions help tackle temporary water challenges across a broad spectrum of applications in the mining, construction, industrial, municipal and emergency response end markets. With no acquisition, storage or maintenance costs, rental offers significant advantages across a wide range of applications.
