Complete Guide to Residential Water Treatment
Imagine your home’s water supply is like a busy highway. Just as cars and trucks carry people and goods, water carries essential minerals. But sometimes, unwanted “passengers”—like contaminants—hitch a ride, too!
We know you care about your family’s health, so you don’t want unfiltered water flowing through your taps.
This guide will explore how to set up a reliable “security checkpoint” for your home’s water supply. We’ll break down the different residential water treatment options to help you make an informed decision so every drop that enters your home is as pure as it should be!
UV Guard Applications
Our market-leading UV disinfection systems deliver outstanding results across an extensive range of industrial, commercial and domestic applications.
What is a Residential Water Filter?
A residential water filter is your home’s first defence against water impurities. These systems come in various types, each with its own way of purifying water.
First up, cartridge and bag water filters are the most common. They’re like sieves that catch sediments and particles from entering your drinking glass or shower.
Then there are hard water conditioners that neutralise minerals (like calcium and magnesium) that cause deposits in your pipes and appliances, reducing water flow and decreasing appliance efficiency.
And we’ve saved the best for last! Chemical-free UV home water treatment systems offer a high-tech approach. These systems zap microorganisms with ultraviolet light, killing bacteria and other pathogens effectively, safely, and sustainably.
Whatever your water woes, there’s a home water treatment system designed to tackle them!
