Can you imagine yourself living in an ideal world? Clean water flowing in rivers, canals, streams; crystal clear water in lakes and ponds; pleasant weather the whole year round, with scheduled rain to ensure adequate crop irrigation but no floods or days and days of grey drizzle; no need for air conditioning or the expense of heating …… WAKE UP!!! This is not a John Lennon song, our world is full of small difficulties and we need help to solve them.
We are all involved, up to a certain point, in solving each other’s problems and making life easier for all. From the train driver that takes us to our work place while we are sleeping a small nap (let this baby grow up and sleep the whole night!!!), to the construction worker that puts one brick over another to build our house.
The point to help others to solve their problems is identifying the right problem in the first place. The more information we have, the more accurate a solution that will be found. No one buys bricks, paint, concrete and tiles when they want to have a house; nor wheels, steering wheel and brakes when what they need is a car. We normally need a house to live in, and buy the “whole package”. The same happens with a car: you first clarify what you need this car for, and then choose one that most closely meets your requirements.
Help us to help you!
At Van Walt we are ready to provide you with complete solutions for your environmental monitoring equipment needs and we offer you a comprehensive portfolio of services, including rentals. Why loose time trying to find a pump to be used in deep wells and sometimes with oil layers, sometimes with sediments in a shallower well, sometimes for low flow sampling, or sometimes for purging …… every time you should use the pump that best fits your requirements. There is no need to purchase all of them (and maintain and service them), by taking the opportunity of renting exactly what you need, properly set-up and ready to go. Why bother becoming a telemetry or pressure measurement technology expert, when your actual requirement is to have water level data? We can help you to do your job more consistently and effectively, but first we need to listen carefully to what you need.
So let’s talk about your needs, you’re the expert that knows what you need; we know what we can offer to reach the solution you are looking for.

We need to make clear, that at the time of writing, there are no ISO or EN standards which deal with the sampling of groundwater for PFAS.
