Building Services
Puretech Water Systems (UK) Ltd offers a wide range of reverse osmosis and water softening plant to the Building Services industry.
We often supply to the Building Services industry. This is on account of the fact that every large building complex requires a reliable water source for multiple applications. Henceforth, we typically provide water treatment solutions for humidification, steam boiler feeds, glass washing and domestic water services.
The Solution
Unquestionably, the focus within the building services industry is scale reduction. Consequently, scale reduction significantly reduces calcium and magnesium deposits on glassware. Reducing blow downs for steam boilers through the application of reverse osmosis water is another key application.
Conversely, humidification and domestic water supplies subsequently require water softening. Therefore, most commercial facilities and building services providers require a water softener as a minimum.
Conclusion
Consequently, we can design bespoke systems for a wide array of applications within the Building Services industry. Particularly, offering water softeners and reverse osmosis plant from our existing comprehensive portfolio.
Our System
What is a Water Softener?
A water softener is used to remove hardness from the incoming towns mains water supply.
For instance, this is achieved by removing the calcium and magnesium ions. These ions would otherwise cause scaling within a water system. Scaling can present itself in many ways.
Below is a list of the most common effects of scaling;
- Water heaters scaling impedes on their ability to heat water efficiently.
- Scaling on glassware such as shower screens and glasses is unhygienic and cosmetically unappealing.
- The scaling on tap outlets and scale build up within water holding tanks can have detrimental effects on systems.
Water softeners remove the calcium and magnesium ions and traps them on its filter surface which acts as a magnet.
Therefore, we exchange these calcium and magnesium ions for sodium ions which, in turn, creates softened water. Summing up, this results in water ready for consumption.

How does Reverse Osmosis work?
Reverse Osmosis is a high-pressure water process which forces water to be treated through a semi permeable reverse osmosis membrane. So, the membrane has two outlet channels. One being the permeate water (Purified) which passes the heavily filtered water onto the point of use application. This purified water typically has around 98% of the incoming contaminants removed, such as dissolved salts, bacteria, organics and pyrogens.
On the other hand, the other outlet is where the rejected water (Concentrate) is sent directly to drain.
In some cases, this concentrate water can be re-circulated back to the front of the reverse osmosis plant and re-processed. In conclusion, this particular process can significantly reduce water wastage.
