Which water needs which treatment
| Use | Treatment |
|---|---|
| Drinking water, kitchen, ice | RO + UV |
| Laundry, boilers, geysers | Softener (hardness) or iron filter |
| Swimming pool | Pool filtration and disinfection (separate system) |
| Borehole supply | Test first; see borehole treatment |
Sizing example
If the hotel needs about 1,000 litres of drinking and kitchen water a day and the RO runs 8 hours, you need about 125 LPH. A 250 LPH system gives headroom for growth and faster refilling of the storage tank.

Softening for laundry and hot water
Hard water leaves scale in geysers, boilers and washing machines and uses more detergent. See do I need a water softener?

Frequently asked questions
What size RO does a hotel need?
Estimate daily drinking and kitchen litres and divide by the running hours; add storage for peaks.
Should a hotel treat all its water with RO?
Usually not. RO is for drinking and kitchen water; laundry and showers often only need softening or filtration.
Can a hotel bottle its own drinking water for rooms?
Hotels often serve purified water in reusable bottles; selling sealed, labelled water needs KEBS certification.
Do you offer a maintenance contract?
Yes. We service filters, membranes and UV on a schedule.
