Welsh Water standpipes are only permitted to be used on hydrants in the Welsh Water region, if you require a standpipe out of this area, please locate the correct water company via our interactive map and contact the relevant depot.

Calm Network Training

Prior to using a standpipe on the Welsh Water Network, our free E-learning Calm Network Course is required to be completed. It consists of a 20 minute video presentation followed by a 15 question multiple choice questionnaire.

It is vital that the training is completed by the user when using the standpipe to ensure the network is not compromised in any way, and the metered standpipe operates correctly.

A link to the training and a coupon code will be provided on receipt of the standpipe application.

Meter Readings

Customers are required to provide a meter reading on a monthly basis. This can be supplied to us by:
