Water purification methods
Most of the water that comes out of the tap seems perfectly clean, but it may contain invisible contaminants. The removal of these elements has a decisive impact on the quality of the water. Calcium and magnesium (which give hardness) are eliminated and the service life of the equipment is significantly extended.
Water purification is mainly carried out in two ways.
SOFTENER - The result obtained from the use of water softeners is the removal of calcium Ca2+ and magnesium Mg2+ ions, responsible for the hardness of the water. Water softeners effectively prevent the formation of incrustations that, over time, reduce the performance of the machines and cause malfunctions.
REVERSE OSMOSIS - Thanks to the very high degree of filtration that characterizes reverse osmosis machines, it is possible to obtain water of high quality and characteristics. In the filtration process, the water passes through one or more membranes, which purify it not only from the elements responsible for its hardness, but also from all contaminants responsible for unwanted odors and tastes.
For excellent results and a long service life of the machines, the two technologies can be combined.
