REMOVES/REDUCES

Neutralising Filters uses Calcite/Akdolit media to lift the pH naturally and safely without the addition of any chemicals.

GENERAL INFO

Low pH makes the water acidic and aggressive towards metal plumbing and fittings. Low pH often results in higher metal levels such as copper, iron, and zinc dissolving into the water.

Low pH can cause a bitter metallic taste and usually leaves green/blue staining on baths and basins. Failure of fittings is also common because of this corrosion caused by copper, making hot water cylinders most at risk.

All of these problems can be easily corrected, by using a pH Neutralising System, which allows acidic water to flow through a bed of specially prepared granulated limestone, which is commonly known as Calcite/Akdolit. This media elevates the pH naturally and safely without the addition of any chemicals.
