Water Treatment Information

Welcome to our consumer portal for home water treatment advice. The aim of this site is to compile the magnitude of water treatment information available on the Internet into a single, concise resource.

The common problems area of the site gives useful information about well water, swimming pool water, pond water, hard water and drinking water, and looks at common problems that are likely to occur.

The common problems area of the site looks at the problems that can occur with well water, swimming pool water, pond water, hard water and other common household waterproblems.

The home water treatment systems area will look at the uses, advantages and disadvantages of water filters, water softeners, water conditioners and water treatment chemicals. In this section you will also find links to more detailed information and also to relevant suppliers on the web.

On the water treatment comparison page, I have summarised the relative merits of each method against one another.

Although I am based in the UK, the information on this site is not location specific and will apply throughout the world. If you are looking for information on the UK water industry, then check out this water guide.

Did you know?

Water conditioners are an effective, low cost solution to hard water problems such as the build up of limescale in pipes.
