It also includes associated filtration plant equipment and services, including inspection, CCTV surveys, testing, condition reporting and commissioning of filtration units; repairs and replacement of defects; design and installation of modifications; removal and compliant disposal of existing media; cleaning; and replacement of filter vessels within treatment buildings.
