Water hardness is measured by the number of mineral deposits in your water (parts per million – ppm). A soft water area would have under 60ppm while a very hard water area would register more than 180ppm. Contact us to let us know where you are located, so we can get a good idea, based on your geographical location, in Ireland, or beyond.

Water with a pH lower than 7 is considered as acidic. A pH of 6 is ten times more acidic than that, and a pH of 5 is one hundred times that of 7, so there is a considerable increase in acidity with every point below neutral on the scale. If metal plumbing is present and the water has a natural pH much below 7, this should be corrected to reduce corrosivity. Such filters are referred to as pH correction filters or neutralising filters. The alkaline media is usually calcium carbonate or magnesium oxide, or a combination of both. Contact us for a quote in getting this corrected.
