Rozdělovský vodojem

The construction of a reservoir in the forest began in 1958, at the time when the Rozdělov housing estate was being built. The old reservoir, which is located in the area of ​​the waterworks, would not be enough in terms of capacity or height to supply drinking water to the well-known distribution panorama - 13-storey tower houses. Today, the Rozdělov district supplies water to the reservoir, ”said Bc. Pavel Pobříslo, Operations Director of SVAS. A few interesting facts about the reservoir from Martin Hartman, SVAS Motorway Operations Manager: The supply of drinking water is ensured by pumping from the pumping station, which is located in the center of the SVAS headquarters. The reservoir is one of the tallest buildings in the city of Kladno, and with its height of about 51 m above the ground, its peak is about 20 m lower than the Kladno lookout tower Kožová hora. The roof of the reservoir is located about 470 m above sea level. In 2004, the building underwent reconstruction of pipelines and fittings, including insulation and installation of heating cables, which ensure full-fledged operation of the water supply even in adverse climatic conditions during extreme frosts. Part of the construction was also the rehabilitation of the inner walls of the storage tanks. At present, about 8 thousand are supplied from the reservoir. customers, after operational manipulations on the distribution network, it is possible to supply some important equipment from the building - such as the Kladno Regional Hospital.
