Shepheard Hotel Renovation 221323 SWIMMING POOL SYSTEM


Tender Documents Page 3 of 22 Mar,2024
1. The following basic principles shall serve to define the intent of this
specification:

a. A means of disposal of the total contents of the pool without


surface run-off shall be established to the satisfaction of the
Engineer.

b. No direct connection shall be made between any storm drain,


sewer, drainage system, dry well or subsoil irrigation line and
any line connected to a swimming pool.

c. Where space and conditions are such that no hazard, nuisance


or insanitary condition is evidenced, swimming pool waste
water may be used for irrigation by surface or subsurface
spreading if approved by the engineer.

B. TESTING

1. Testing of Basin : Testing of basin for leakage shall be


performed within a period of 5 days.

2. Pressure Testing of Water Piping

a. General

1. All pipelines for swinning pool water supply and all


work in connection therewith shall be subject to
pressure and leakage tests after being laid, the joints
completed, and before commissioning of operation.

2. Before any testing takes place, the area shall be


adequately backfilled if necessary leaving the joints
exposed for examination.

Shepheard Hotel Renovation 221323 SWIMMING POOL SYSTEM


Tender Documents Page 4 of 22 Mar,2024
3. Tests shall be carried out in the presence of the
Engineer in accordance with the manufacturer's
recommendations and the relevant standards.

4. Pressure test and leakage test may be conducted


concurrently, or as directed by the Engineer.

b. Testing Procedure

1. When the pipelines cannot be tested in one operation,


they shall be tested in sections. The length of the
sections shall be at the discretion of the contractor and
subject to approval by the Engineer.

2. The joints linking individual test sections shall be tested


for leaks by a final overall test with the nominal
pressure during 24 hours.

3. Calibrated pressure gauges, graduated to permit correct


reading to 10 kPa or 0.1 bar shall be used for testing.

4. The main test duration period shall depend on nominal


pipe diameter, type of line duty and length of test
section. It shall be sufficient to permit any damage to
become readily apparent. Test duration shall be
subject to approval by the Engineer.

5. The test pressure shall be at least 50 percent higher


than the maximum working pressure.

6. The test pressure shall be applied by a suitable pump


equipped with connection valves and guages. During
tests, all valves in the system shall be opened and
closed several times, all joints, fittings, caps, plugs and
the like, shall be carefully examined. If any part shows
signs of leak, it shall be replaced or remade as
necessary, and the test shall be repeated until the
