15m3 well steel headworks replacement

Scope

This client was a grower who had an existing vineyard. The existing well, which was the main water source, was producing poor water quality. A new well was drilled near the old well and I was fortunate enough to be given the task to design a new headworks.

It was one of my smaller projects, but not less rewarding to see the end result after it was installed and commissioned.
