About this deal

We tested the water after flushing through for 10 minutes and it tasted like good quality spring water. A glass was left overnight and tasted exactly the same in the morning. The first filter pod on the system contains a multi media filter which will f ilter levels of Chlorine, THM’s, PCB’s, and reduce levels of heavy metals (if present) such as Lead, Cadmium, Chromium, Mercury and Iron . The filter media also has antibacterial properties to help control bacterial growth. This produces good tasting water for the whole home which you can drink from any tap. This is also great for the garden for plants, paddling pools, de-chlorinated water for fish keeping, etc. BWT bestmax is a simple, practical, all-round filtration solution developed for the diverse requirements of the food service sector. It provides superb quality water for a full coffee taste, is also ideally suited for use in vending equipment and produces perfect, pure steam for ovens and combi steamers. The new High Efficiency Technology (HET) provides even more effective water optimisation, resulting in a consistently high water quality for hot and cold drinks, kitchens, bakeries and all food and baked goods. The EcoPlus XL is the larger version of the EcoPlus system and is suitable for average/larger homes (including homes with Megaflow boilers) and small commercial settings. The EcoPlus XL uses the latest in scale prevention and water filtration technology to filter the water for your whole home or business premises. Once installed the system will filter all of your water to a high level, descale existing pipework, and prevent future scale from forming - without adding any chemicals or salt into your water! The scale prevention filter media is proven to be 99.6% effective, making this an extremely effective system. Our plumber installed the system in 3 hrs with some complicated pipe work due to the location of the maims inlet pipe.

You will need to replace this first filter on the system just once every 12 months (dependent upon usage and incoming water quality) The water is much softer but not producing a slimy feel which you tend to get with salt softened water. optional extra by-pass kit to fit either 15mm or 22mm pipes available - see " Accessories" tab for bypass fitting kits) British tap water is cheap, well regulated and perfectly safe to drink, but it doesn’t always taste that great. In some areas and in warmer seasons, it’s heavily treated, adding a chemical tinge. In other areas – particularly hard water areas – it might have a strong mineral or metallic taste.

You will need to replace this second filter on the system just once every 36 months (depending upon incoming water quality). Also look for features such as flip-top lids or covered spouts that make it easier to fill the jug or prevent dining table grime from getting in. Cleaning is important, too: not all jugs are dishwasher-safe and some designs may have divots or folds in the plastic that are difficult to keep clean. The internal water filter media used in this system meets NSF 61 standard. This is the American standard for drinking water products which is world renowned and internationally recognised.

In most areas and for most people, the ZeroWater is arguably overkill, but if you’re concerned about minerals and metals in your drinking water, this jug should give you peace of mind. We looked at many other systems but this has the advantage of producing softer water without salt and also filters out impurities. Time will tell whether it leaves any deposits on the shower screen or removes existing lime scale from the system. We also have a full bore compression fittings bypass kit and flexible hoses available as an optional extra, these are useful for tight installations where the system cannot be installed in-line with the pipe and needs to go underneath / above the pipe instead. Please see " accessories" tab for fitting kits in 15mm and 22mm sizes, The user-friendly traffic light system reminds you to switch them out when you need to, factoring in both the time and volume of filtered water to give you optimum performance.Speed is also an issue. Some systems take their time with the filtration, keeping you waiting while you’ve got a thirst on, while others pass the water through in a jiffy. Some jugs are designed for style, others for convenience. Obviously, the former is a question of personal taste, although certain systems allow for a wide range of shapes and colours, while other designs are more conservative. Nearly every jug will include some mechanism to remind you to change the filter. Don’t expect anything too sophisticated: most likely this will be a simple timer that goes down every few days until the 30-day average lifespan is up. A simple LCD gauge on the lid works as well here as an app so don’t let that sway your decision. How much is all this going to cost? Despite this, the Oria doesn’t feel cheap, and we’re particularly keen on the pour-through lid, which has a slatted basin for easy filling, so you never have to take it fully off. As for the water, it has a similar TDS to the water from the Aquaphor jugs and a similar, slightly creamy taste. Good-looking, effective and cheap to run; the Oria is an absolute bargain.

The scale prevention takes place within the second filter without adding any salt or chemicals into the water. The filter does this by using a process called Template Assisted Crystallization (TAC), which basically conditions the water and converts the hardness minerals in the water (Calcium and Magnesium) into harmless, inactive microscopic crystals. This prevents the Calcium and Magnesium from bonding together to form limescale, and also over time will descale existing pipework and appliances. Because of this process no natural minerals are lost from the water, and no chemicals or salts are added either. This handy cool jug also features the MAXTRA+ filtration which is highly effective at reducing limescale, chlorine and other impurities, keeping your food and drink tasting as delicious as they should. The new MicroFlow technology is powered by natural coconut shells combined with Ion-exchange pearls and Micro Carbon pearls for clearer water. Water which has undergone this filtration process has a conditioning effect which prevents scale from forming in pipework and appliances, around sinks and washbasins, and will help prolong the life and efficiency of your appliances by preventing limescale. The scale prevention media will work even in the hardest water areas and has been tested independently against the international protocol for scale prevention with a 99.6% effectiveness rating.
