Working with Industry
Whatever your business, wherever you are based in the eastern region and whatever your mechanical, electrical, plumbing or water-related problem – Panks can help you resolve it.
We listen. You tell us what you need and we look for the best solution. We will work directly with you to find applications that offer optimum cost-effectiveness for your business and a long-term resolution.
With over 170 years of experience of working within industries across East Anglia Panks have the knowledge and expertise to help you. However diverse your enterprise, building or requirement, rest assured we will have an application that will work for you and your business.
If you are considering a private water supply, whether through necessity or choice, in order to beat rising water costs or to access a purer source of water, talk to us about groundwater abstraction.
Quite literally you could be sitting on the answer! Our specialist engineers use hydro-geological maps to identify the best spot on your property to drill a borehole from 10 metres to 90 metres below ground to access an aquifer.
A borehole fitted with specialist borepumps, can provide you with up to 20,000 litres or 20m3* per day of wholesome groundwater completely free of charge. Working in conjunction with a water treatment plant, if required, Panks can supply the water to your systems for flushing, washing or irrigating – or direct to your taps as potable water, and all at whatever pressure you require.
At Panks we offer a range of water treatment options for a variety of purposes.
For example a water treatment plant can purify groundwater for drinking; or filter groundwater or stored rainwater for reuse around your site as non-potable water, supplying systems for washing and flushing. We can also install a water treatment plant to improve the aesthetics of your pond or water features, reducing algae and clarifying the water through UV sterilisation, whilst also destroying any harmful bacteria. And not forgetting our packaged pumping stations for treatment of waste water and effluent.
No matter what your type of building, or the number of people using its facilities, Panks can advise, size, specify, supply and install the most suitable solutions for your waste water requirements with one of our packaged pumping stations.
We can install a gravity-fed storage chamber, fitted with an automated submersible pump and connect this to the nearest available sewer via a rising main. Or if your site cannot be linked to a mains sewer we can install an oxygenated treatment plant where bacteria break down the waste and the remaining liquid is pumped safely away to a soakaway or drain.
Let us give your business a boost! Tell us where low water pressure is getting you down and we can recommend a solution.
We will do the calculations based on your situation, requirements and the water supply. Working in line with current Health and Safety requirements, we will install all necessary pump and ancillary pipework to boost your water to whatever pressure you require, wherever you require it.
Perk up your plants and enliven green spaces with an irrigation solution from Panks. Whether it is drip irrigation, automated or pop-up sprinklers, storage tanks or water features, we can recommend a solution for you. We have a wealth of knowledge and experience of irrigating across the eastern region and we will have the best watering system for your needs.
For an environmentally friendly – and free – source of water for washing, flushing or irrigating, why not consider rainwater harvesting? We can collect your surface water and rainwater from roofs and guttering, filter it and store it underground holding tanks. It can then be pumped back into your systems as grey water, at whatever pressure you require.
Panks can assess, size, specify, supply and install your entire package. Talk to us for more information.
For all your mechanical and electrical concerns, contact us for friendly advice and a reliable service. All work is NICEIC or Gas Safe accredited in-house.
Let us assess the performance of your existing systems or plans and look for ways to make efficiency gains. We can overhaul or upgrade your heating systems, whatever makes best economic sense for your business. Panks use approved boilers which are biomass, oil, gas, or the environmentally friendly heat and power driven systems.
We offer a range of cooling and ventilation systems for your comfort and internal climate control, from small split systems to fully ducted systems. All the systems have adjustable speed and temperature controls to let you set comfortable levels whilst conserving energy.
