Calwell State Emergency Service Gets a Powerhouse Upgrade

The Calwell State Emergency Service (SES) facility required a significant upgrade to its plumbing infrastructure to support the demanding operations of an emergency response centre. Contemporary Plumbing’s Canberra team delivered a modern, robust hydraulic system capable of supporting high‑pressure operational needs, improved safety systems, and reliable access to clean water.

Working within a critical‑services environment, the team’s goal was to build an infrastructure foundation that strengthens the SES’s ability to respond quickly and effectively to emergencies.
