KAHRAMAA Highlights Advanced Water Connection Service Benefits for Construction in Qatar

KAHRAMAA Promotes Advanced Water Connection Service for Construction Sector Doha, September 08 (QNA) - {{already_used_link_1}}, Qatar's public utility for electricity and water, has restated its pledge to advance its online service offerings and boost awareness of these tools to address the demands of clients and the construction industry, while also cementing its function in providing dependable, top-tier utility services across Qatar. Within this framework, the corporation underscored its continuous work to promote the Advanced Water Connection Service, a solution that delivers water to active construction zones, labor camps, and modular structures via the established water grid. This offering provides a controlled and direct water supply during the building phase, presenting a secure and contemporary option compared to the frequent deployment of water delivery trucks. It forms a component of KAHRAMAA's wider initiatives to elevate the standard of services for clients, property developers, and construction firms, and to boost efficiency at work sites. The service guarantees an uninterrupted, superior water flow at all times, while cutting down on the time, labor, and expenses tied to repeatedly arranging and hauling water via tankers. Additionally, the program seeks to diminish dependence on third-party tankers for supplying water to the building sector, thereby lessening their operational and traffic-related consequences. These include alleviating road congestion and queues at tanker refill points, curtailing the presence of heavy trucks in neighborhoods and construction zones, bolstering community safety, and refining the nation's visual landscape. At a later point, users have the option to upgrade the temporary hookup to a permanent one, following established protocols and guidelines. Primary advantages of the Advanced Water Connection Service comprise delivering a steady, direct water supply at project locations, structuring water needs during the construction timeline, ensuring operational continuity, lowering day-to-day reliance on tankers, minimizing the transit of water haulage vehicles, and conserving time and resources when finalizing projects and shifting to permanent connections. Eligibility for the service extends to contractors handling equipment, facilities, and oversight or execution roles at sites tied to construction of structures and amenities under valid building permits. It also covers prefabricated buildings and amenities with valid permits, prefabricated installations that have secured a No Objection Certificate (NOC) from the pertinent municipality, modular labor housing, and units like prefabricated prayer spaces, in addition to other locations, structures, or amenities specified or sanctioned by the relevant authority. Interested parties, including individuals, firms, and developers, can submit requests for this service digitally via KAHRAMAA's portal by navigating to e-services, choosing the Advanced Water Connection Service, filling in the requisite details, uploading supporting documentation, and forwarding the application for processing. KAHRAMAA advised prospective users to file their requests well in advance to guarantee that all steps are finalized and the hookup is operational promptly, preventing setbacks that might hinder progress at construction sites. This initiative supports the aims of Qatar National Vision 2030, which pursues sustainable and well-rounded growth through the creation of robust infrastructure, enhanced resource stewardship, and the adoption of eco-friendly methods that foster a high standard of living and safeguard the environment. It further advances the vision's environmental objectives by encouraging disciplined utilization of water networks and curbing tanker traffic and its associated congestion, operational hurdles, and ecological footprint.
