How can I know whether the water I drink is clean?
The only way to be sure that your water is good for drinking is to do the physically-chemical and microbiological analysis of the water at any of the official institutes.
How to treat the water in which there is found Escherichia collie?
Escherichia collie is the bacteria of fecal origin; it is the indicator of water contamination with fecal. To remove Escherichia it is needed to handle the water with chlor or some other disinfectant.
Can filter jug remove the bacteria from the drinking water?
No.
In the jug there is the miniature filter element with active coal filling that serves for fixing the organoleptic qualities and removing chlor from the water. So, they are a good start for the following development of microorganisms because the water is unprotected after this filter.
We found out that the well we drink water from is contaminated by Escherichia collie? How did it get contaminated and what should we do about it?
Near your well is the septic pit, barn or the well sinew is mixed with the contaminator somewhere. (Look at the next questions)
How to remove the lime scale from the water?
For removing the lime scale we use apparatuses called SOFTENERES. They remove Ca and Mg from the water and stop the lime scale from developing in the process.
Every time the neighbor fixes his plumbs the water is full with sand and mud. What to do?
Provide yourself with the water without mechanical filth by installing a simple mechanical filter into the shaft and you have protected the whole aqueduct grid from mud and sand sedimentation in the water. When the existing filter element is obstructed, you simply replace it with a new one. This is a small investment that will provide you a protection from mud and sand in every situation.
I use the water from the city plumbs and sometimes it is completely chlor white. How bad is to drink such water?
Chlor is "the necessary evil". It is the imperative, most reliable and the cheapest disinfectant used in our plumbs to secure the safe water transport from the fabric to our consumers. Concentration permitted in the drinking water is from 0.2 – 0.5 mg /l of water. Due to the old and already deteriorated pipes and its frequent repairs, water is often over chlorinated and residual concentrations in the water exceed the limit up to 10 times. In those concentrations chlor can be cancerous even.
How often should the well water be checked and what is the easiest way of disinfection?
Checking the well water is very important to know what kind of water you drink. Because most of our wells are open type, there is often the influence of the exterior factors on the drinking water quality. Well water checking is recommended at least two times a year. Water disinfection in such wells can be done in several ways, so it is the best you contact us personally or to visit us.
What problems can occur on the apparatuses because of the bad water quality?
Household water can have many faults and contingent upon the faults nature it can cause some serious problems. We singled out the most frequent ones for the occasion. If there are mechanical filth in the water (mud, sand…) often the plumbs can get obstructed or the filth sediments in your boilers or washing machines, so the apparatuses are damaged. If there is Fe and Mn in the water, the hydroxide sediments in the pipes which leads to corrosion and space pockets that are very suitable for appearing of the microorganisms who feed of them. If there is a lime scale the heaters may get damaged or it may sediment on the walls of the apparatus that increases the current consumption by large.
What makes the water become reddish?
Most frequent cause is the presence of Fe and Mn in the water above the concentration level, due to contact with the oxygen occurs the oxidation and that causes umber red colors.
Why is the high nitrate concentration in the water a problem and what to do in order to maintain a level?
Nitrates in the drinking water are a problem, they occur due to the water pollution by fertilizers or process of ammoniac nitrification with the presence of microorganisms. Some studies connect nitrates with cancer and also blood disorder in kids…
What causes the smell of dirt or rotten eggs in our water?
Main cause of smell in the drinking water is the presence of gases in the water. Most frequent gas in the water is hydrogen oxide sulphide. Also, the water smell can be affected by the layer of dirt, through which the water gets to the surface, the decay of organic substances, mould, etc.
Why do we apply the water softeners in households?
Water softeners are applied in order to remove high amounts of Ca and Mg from the water that create lime scale with the carbonates. Use of the softeners in households greatly saves the house budget:
~ 50% of detergent and soap saving
~ 30% less clothes chafing,
~ 60% of power consumption for hot water heating,
~ 90% of saving on the repairs and replacement of the apparatuses and parts.
