Biocide Treatments

Where temperature control is not adequate for a domestic water system biocidal treatment may be required. The selection of a suitable system for the control of legionella and other water pathogens is complex and depends on several parameters including the system design, age, size and water chemistry. There is no single water treatment control regime that is effective in every case and each control method has both benefits and limitations.

Continual Biocide Dosing

Continual dosing of biocides to treat water systems where water is used for domestic purposes may make the water unwholesome and be contrary to water legislation if not correctly planned, implemented, monitored and maintained.

It is imperative that the introduction of a chemical biocide into the system does not pose additional hazards to those it was intended to mitigate. Therefore, the type of biocide and method of introduction must be carefully selected.

Aqua Protec understand the unique requirements of hot and cold water systems and their bespoke needs in order to successfully control the accumulation of waterborne pathogens. Our Consultants provide assessment for the identification of the most suitable type of continual dosing to be installed to maintain system integrity and ensure that the quality of the treated water remains fit for purpose.
Biocide options include: Chlorine Dioxide, Silver Stabilised Hydrogen Peroxide, Copper and Silver ionisation.
