At CICSA, we design hydraulic systems for the construction sector in Costa Rica, for both buildings and infrastructure.
A good hydraulic design is not just about “running pipes.” It is about preventing leaks, optimizing budget, obtaining permits on the first submission, and avoiding surprises during construction. Depending on the contracted scope, we cover:
Connection to the public water system (AyA/ASADA/municipal).
Storage tanks, pumps, and variable frequency drives when network pressure is insufficient.
Filtration and conditioning systems (according to local water quality).
Material selection (CPVC/PEX/PVC) based on temperature, UV exposure, and coastal environment.
Layout of collectors, vents, and cleanouts with appropriate slopes.
Septic tank or biodigester and infiltration field when no sewer system is available.
Design using local IDF curves for gutters, downspouts, and collectors.
Infiltration wells and trenches, storm boxes, and outlet flow control.
Roof penetration and flashing details to prevent moisture issues.
Grease traps for commercial kitchens or high-use residential projects.
Pump rooms, pool mechanical rooms, and garden irrigation systems.
Hydrosanitary drawings (plans, details, schematics).
Technical specifications.
Support during comments and reviews by inspectors, municipalities, or AyA/ASADA.
Typical deliverables (adjusted to your project):
Initial meeting to understand use, budget, and timelines.
Review of architectural pre-design, topography, zoning/land use, and AyA/ASADA feasibility.
Identification of critical factors: network pressures, water quality, rainfall, marine environment.
Definition of main routes, location of technical rooms, and preliminary sizing of tanks and pumps.
Coordination with architecture for space requirements and with structure for sleeves and penetrations.
Detailed calculations of flows, pressures, and head losses.
Sizing of pipe diameters, slopes, and sanitary venting.
Stormwater calculations using local IDF data and selection of infiltration/discharge solutions.
Coordination with electrical design for pump power supply, protections, and controls.
Issuance of drawings, calculation report, and specifications in CFIA/municipal format.
Support during clarifications with reviewers, municipalities, or AyA/ASADA.
Technical handover meeting with supervision or contractor.
Targeted site visits to resolve interferences and validate hydraulic testing.
We design to meet CFIA, AyA/ASADA, and municipal requirements.
Clear drawings, readable isometrics, and details that avoid on-site confusion.
Optimized routes and diameters, valves where needed, and accessible cleanouts.
Area-based zoning, component identification, and practical recommendations.
Proven solutions in Guanacaste, San Carlos, and both coastal and inland areas.
Residential: single-family homes, condominiums, tourist cabins, vacation homes.
Commercial and offices: retail units, restaurants (with grease traps), small clinics, coworking spaces.
Tourism: small boutique hotels, hostels, and amenities (pools, outdoor showers, irrigation).
(link/cadastral plan) and, if available, zoning/land use.
(pre-design or base drawings in DWG/PDF).
(AyA/ASADA feasibility, typical pressures if known).
(showers, kitchen, laundry, irrigation/pool).
Homes and small commercial units: 2–4 weeks from complete inputs to permit-ready drawings.
Medium commercial/office projects: 4–8 weeks, depending on complexity and coordination
Depends on area, complexity, location, and scope (tanks, pumps, domestic hot water, stormwater, grease traps, site visits). After the feasibility meeting, you receive a phased proposal (pre-design, development, permits, and construction support).
With these inputs, we schedule your meeting and within a few days you will receive your detailed proposal.
We design septic systems or biodigesters with infiltration fields, fully sized in accordance with sanitary regulations.
Our focus is design, supervision, and inspection. If installation is required, we can coordinate with contractors and provide supervision to ensure execution quality.
Yes. We design rainwater harvesting, storage, and filtration systems for irrigation or toilet flushing, evaluating cost-benefit and maintenance.
Yes. We handle small- to medium-scale irrigation structures and technical studies for ASADAS, according to the scope required.
