Comfort509 (Alternative to Chlorine Dioxide) - The next generation of water treatment products.
If you are having problems with recurring Legionella-positive tests, high TVC or Pseudomonas results, this could be the answer. Whether you want to operate with hot water temperatures below those required by ACOP L8 and HSG 274 to save energy costs; protect users from scalding without the expense of fitting Thermostatic Mixer Valves or ensure your water system is hygienic and free from bacteria – this product is the answer. It sets completely new standards in legionella control.
With the EU banning ionisation because of the copper content a new Legionella strategy had to be sourced out where temperature control fails. This has led the UK to look for an alternative that does not cause detrimental damage to water systems and at the same time is dispersive and delivered proportionally.
