Water Treatment
Water quality in the UK varies significantly from area to area. Some regions
have raised levels of calcium and magnesium in their water due to the natural
limestone geology.

This is commonly called ‘hard water’ and causes many problems for businesses
and households. The limescale formed ‘sticks’ to pipes, boilers, and all domestic
appliances that heat water eventually leading to expensive repairs and replacement.

Smith Brothers stock various products that are particularly effective in hard
water areas:
Scale Inhibitors help extend the life of household water appliances.
Water Softeners eliminate limescale from water either on the incoming main or on the cold feed
to an appliance.
Water Filters which are used to remove bad taste/chlorine, scale/scum and reduce levels of
lead and most other heavy metals.
Water Cooled Chiller System – filter and chilled water for most single tap applications in the home.
