Project Update: Inlet Channel Extension and Flow Meter Certification for Veolia

Project Description

At Jones Site Services & Installations, we take pride in delivering tailored engineering solutions that help our clients achieve compliance, efficiency, and reliability. We’re pleased to announce the successful completion of another project for Veolia, a global leader in environmental services.

Project Overview

The project scope centred on the extension of an inlet channel at one of Veolia’s facilities. This critical upgrade was required to ensure that the flume system could operate correctly, enabling accurate flow measurement and compliance with regulatory standards.

A key outcome of the works was to allow the flow meter to be formally certified. Accurate flow measurement is essential in water treatment and environmental services, not only for operational performance but also to meet strict industry and environmental regulations.

Technical Challenges and Solutions

  • Inlet Channel Extension: The team constructed an extension that provided improved hydraulics, ensuring that water entered the flume under the correct conditions.
  • Flume Functionality: By adjusting the structure, the flume now achieves the consistent flow profile required for reliable readings.
  • Flow Meter Certification: With the improvements in place, the system could be independently certified, giving Veolia assurance that the site is fully compliant with monitoring requirements.

Our team worked closely with Veolia to minimise disruption during the works. All tasks were carried out to a very high standard, with meticulous attention to safety, quality, and detail.

Why This Project Matters

Projects like this demonstrate the importance of infrastructure improvements in water management and treatment facilities. By ensuring that flow meters are properly certified, Veolia can continue to deliver services that align with both regulatory obligations and sustainability targets.

This upgrade also highlights how relatively modest engineering interventions — like an inlet channel extension — can have a significant impact on overall system performance, compliance, and long-term reliability.

Commitment to Quality

At Jones Site Services & Installations, quality is at the heart of everything we do. Each project, whether large or small, is completed with the same commitment to:

  • Precision engineering
  • Regulatory compliance
  • Client satisfaction

Our partnership with Veolia is one we value greatly, and we’re proud to continue supporting their operations with high-quality engineering and installation services.

Looking Ahead

This successful project is another example of how we provide specialist installation and maintenance services to the water treatment and environmental services sectors. With expertise in channel works, flume installations, and flow meter compliance, Jones Site Services & Installations remains a trusted partner for clients like Veolia across the UK.
