Custom Container Offices and Ablutions

Recently iPlumber had the opportunity to work on an unusual and interesting custom plumbing project.

Our client needed two fully self contained site offices, with kitchenette, toilet, and hand basin. The offices and ablutions needed to be portable and self contained as it was to be dropped on a remote site location, and able to be picked up and transported to the further site locations.

We worked in with Ken from Made in Metal and came up with a design that worked inside a shipping container, apart from the obvious extension of a large sewerage tank on one end (a converted water tank with fill level indicator).

We used a macerator pump for the waste lines to pump up into the tank, and a small 5 litre hot water storage cylinder for the hot water, which are a good quality off the shelf unit.

All water and waste lines are clipped and concealed behind the wall linings to prefabricated metal plates, which were welded in where needed.

The unit is fully lined in poly panel, fitted out with aluminium joinery, and of course, painted black 🙂
