Choosing the right team for your cooling tower survey makes a significant difference to what you get at the end of it.

At Franklin Hodge, our surveys are carried out by the qualified engineers who design and manufacture Carter Environmental cooling towers. We assess the full structure and internal components as well as offering flowrate and temperature logging. We follow every inspection with a detailed report and a clear set of recommendations.

If refurbishment or servicing is needed off the back of the survey, we can take that on too.

Specifying fire water storage for a space-restricted site is rarely straightforward.

The Firetainer® is a site-assembled rectangular fire water storage tank available in a wide range of shapes and virtually any length or width, up to a maximum height of 5.35m. Where structural columns or fixed obstructions are present, the membrane liner can be sleeved around them, so the tank works around the building rather than the other way around.

If you are working on a project where space is the primary constraint, get in touch with our team.

Storing waste and effluent brings its own risks. Leaks, contamination, and non-compliance can all cost you long after installation.

Our tanks are purpose-built to prevent leaks and protect the surrounding environment, reduce the risk of spills, meet industry compliance standards, and stand up to years of use with minimal repairs or replacement.

Fitting fire water storage into a residential or multi-occupancy building often means working around limited space, whether that's a loft, basement, or plant room.

Our LPCB approved Firetainer® tank, in a scaled-down version built specifically for residential sprinkler systems, is designed in accordance with BS 9251, Fire Sprinkler Systems for Domestic and Residential Occupancies.

It's site-assembled, compact, and can be laid out to suit the space available.

This week, we completed our first helicoidal staircase project. The project involved close coordination across Sales, Design, the Drawing Office, Contracts, Production Engineering, Manufacturing and Installation.

The staircase system is designed to cover tanks from 3.82m to 21.39m in diameter and 3.63m to 14.43m high, giving us a configurable solution across most of our tank range.

Our thanks to everyone involved in delivering this project.

Your tank can develop corrosion, sediment build-up, or liner defects without any of it being visible from the outside.

Our ROV surveys inspect the full interior while your tank stays full and in service, so there's no draining, no refilling, and no disruption to your operations. You'll receive a full video report and expert recommendations from our engineers.

A new addition to our tank access offering!

We have developed a helicoidal staircase solution that works across our full range of tank diameters. Each staircase is driven by a parametric design model that adapts the helix geometry to suit the tank diameter, height and access requirements, so the engineering is right and the installation is straightforward.

Daniel Mills took the design through to build, and Gavin Cotterrell produced the 3D animation you can see here, giving a clear picture of how it fits before anything reaches site.

If access is tight or the geometry is awkward, get in touch.

When a fire breaks out, your sprinkler system cannot wait for mains pressure to recover.

The Firestore® provides a dedicated, on-site reserve of fire protection water - site-assembled from high-grade galvanised steel with an internal liner that protects against corrosion. Designed for long service life and low maintenance.

Approved by the LPCB and FM Global for fire sprinkler water storage, with capacities from 10m³ to 2,222m³.

Drinking water storage demands more than capacity. It demands compliance, material integrity, and long-term reliability.

Our cylindrical Liquistore® tanks use WRAS-approved butyl rubber liners tested to BS6920 - built specifically for potable water. The same materials resist chlorine and water treatment chemicals, and handle temperatures from -30°C to +120°C.

Site-assembled to your specification, with eco-friendly manufacturing and no harmful additives.

We've been manufacturing and installing water storage tanks since 1973 - and this year, the Carter Thermal Industries Group, of which Franklin Hodge is a part, celebrated its 80th anniversary.

That kind of longevity is not built on shortcuts. It is built on material quality, manufacturing standards, and installations that continue to perform long after the project is complete.
