Chlorine Disinfection
The system shall be filled with Chlorinated water at an initial concentration of 50 mg/l
(50p.p.m) for a contact period of 1 hr. If the free residual chlorine measured at the
end of the contact period is less than 30 mg/l (30p.p.m), the disinfection process shall
be repeated.
After successful chlorination, the system shall be immediately drained and thoroughly
flushed with clean water. Flushing shall continue until the free residual chlorine is at

The following procedure shall be adopted for sterilization of the water distribution
systems:
a. Flush out all tanks, pipework, etc.
b. Recharge all water systems adding sufficient sterilization chemical at
the roof tank to a concentration of 1-2 parts per million. The
concentration shall be confirmed by using a measuring instrument

chlorine. The system shall then remain charged for a minimum period
of one hour.
e. The water shall then be chemically analyzed. Should no residual
chlorine be found, the test shall be repeated until satisfactory results
are obtained.
f.
Drain down all storage tanks and pipework, flushing out tank and
pipework, and run the system clean prior to retesting of the water to
ensure no residual chlorine is present.
g. Finally a sample of tank water shall be taken to the Water Department

for testing. The results of these tests shall be forwarded to the
Consultant for his approval.
Cisterns with Internal Coatings
Because high chlorine concentrations and other disinfectants can adversely

affect new coatings in cisterns, copper pipes, etc., and release chlorinated or
other compounds into the water, the coating shall be thoroughly cured before
disinfection takes place and care shall be taken not to exceed 50 m/l chlorine
concentration or, in the case of an alternative approved disinfectant, the
manufacturers recommendation.
Localised Repairs
Junctions or fittings for a localised repair, inserted into an existing external
pipeline shall be disinfected by immersion in a solution hypochlorite containing
200 mg/l of available chlorine. Where other disinfectants are used, the
concentration shall be in accordance with the manufacturers
recommendations
Safety
Systems, or parts of systems, shall not be used during the disinfection
procedure and all outlets shall be marked with DISINFECTION IN PROGRESS, DO
NOT USE.
To avoid the generation of toxic fumes, no other chemicals, like toilet cleaners
shall be added to the water until disinfection is complete.
