A premium complex sells not only architecture but a utilities standard. Water must meet hygiene rules and stay stable even when inlet quality drifts.
Polishing is not only for drinking: water runs through every building service. A dedicated small-bore drinking main is often enough — it saves plant room and capex and lets you mineralise the drinking branch only.
Why polish mains water
- Regional water quality
- Age and length of the networks
- The network itself as a source of contamination
- Borehole water is not a guarantee of purity
- Extra requirements from the client and the management company
Scheme options
- Treatment of all cold and hot water
- Treatment of the cold inlet only
- Treatment of drinking water on a dedicated pipe
- Drinking loop with dosing of mineral additives
Technologies
Chlorine and hardness salts, iron and manganese, UV disinfection — a typical set for better odour and taste. A dedicated drinking loop avoids making ‘expensive’ water for the whole domestic demand of the building.
