Water Management on Construction Sites: Prevention and Operational Continuity

In the construction sector, water can represent one of the main risk factors for delays, unforeseen costs, and operational problems.

Its presence can hinder the progress of work, negatively affect the quality of structures, and create dangerous situations for the workforce. Effective water management requires the use of reliable pumping systems, capable of adapting to different site conditions and environmental variables.

In this context, the rental of professional pumps – motorized, submersible, or diaphragm pumps – proves to be a technically advantageous solution: it allows access to specific, high-performance equipment ready to use, without the burden of purchase and maintenance. Furthermore, renting allows for the selection of the most suitable technology based on the type of liquid to be handled, the required flow rate, and site logistics, ensuring timely interventions and greater operational continuity.

Flooding in excavations and stormwater management

During excavation, water from water tables or weather events can quickly fill the foundations, slowing or blocking the progress of work.

In these cases, the use of submersible pumps is recommended, designed to handle clear and murky water with high flow rates and easy installation.

Available for rent at Alayan, these pumps are ideal for continuous site drainage, thanks to their self-priming capability, even under variable suction conditions.

Alternatively, for smaller spaces, the diesel motor pump is available, which offers operational autonomy, high resistance to wear, and high performance up to 1800 l/min, making it perfect for large volumes of water and prolonged use.

If mud formation occurs, the most suitable solution is the diaphragm pump, capable of drawing heavily loaded liquids without risk of damage. The diaphragm technology allows for dry running and the efficient handling of particularly dirty water (up to 320 liters per minute).

Infiltration in subsoil and tunnels

Infrastructure projects, such as tunnels or technical shafts, require specific pumping systems capable of operating in tight and deep environments.

Vertical submersible pumps represent a reliable solution thanks to their compact design, corrosion-protected motors, and resistance to debris. Equipped with corrosion protection and designed to handle liquids with suspended solids, they ensure reliability even in continuous operation.

Ambient humidity and concrete drying

An often-overlooked aspect on construction sites is the impact of relative humidity on the drying of concrete and plaster. High humidity can compromise the setting of materials and cause surface defects.

The impact of relative humidity on the drying of concrete and plaster is often underestimated.

The use of professional industrial dehumidifiers allows for:

▶ stabilizing the thermo-hygrometric environment;
▶ accelerating drying times;
▶ ensuring the quality and durability of finishes.

They are ideal for enclosed or poorly ventilated environments, during interior work or finishing phases.

Applications in residential environments: prevention and post-flood recovery

Even in residential contexts, the uncontrolled presence of water causes discomfort and health risks.

Flooded basements and technical rooms

Flooding in underground rooms, often due to heavy rain or system failures, requires immediate intervention.

A diesel diaphragm pump is perfect for muddy water or water containing solid particles. Thanks to the diaphragm principle, this machine ensures:

▶ dry running without damage;
▶ consistent performance even in extreme conditions;
▶ maximum reliability in challenging environments.

Mold and condensation in enclosed spaces

In poorly ventilated homes or in the presence of thermal bridges, humidity accumulates, creating mold, condensation, and respiratory problems.

Professional dehumidifiers can also be used in residential contexts to:

▶ maintain relative humidity below 60%;
▶ prevent the formation of mold and condensation;
▶ protect furniture, walls, and the health of occupants.

Recommended for bathrooms, kitchens, basements, or rooms without adequate ventilation.

Solutions for industrial and commercial environments

Alayan also offers rental solutions for needs related to warehouses, factories, and technical spaces.

Safety in warehouses and production lines

Flooding in a warehouse or production area can damage goods, equipment, and cause costly interruptions.

High-capacity pumps allow for:

▶ rapid response to emergencies, preventing damage to stored goods or systems;
▶ easy transport and robustness;
▶ protection of assets and operational continuity.

Humidity and electronic devices

In sensitive environments such as data centers, laboratories, and technical offices, excessive humidity can damage electronic equipment and compromise system functionality.

Professional dehumidifiers can be an excellent solution to:

▶ combat excessive humidity levels in commercial environments;
▶ allow for digital humidity control;
▶ provide continuous monitoring and air treatment capabilities, protecting hardware and improving environmental comfort.

Workplace safety

Water on industrial surfaces can cause slip and fall accidents and interfere with the operation of machinery.

A valuable tool for handling these situations is the floor-level pump.

Fast-draining pumps, combined with high-performance dehumidifiers, are essential tools to:

▶remove water quickly;
▶ maintain a dry and safe environment;
▶ ensure full operability even in critical conditions.
