Mains Water Solutions for the Home
New Zealand “Mains“ water depending on where you live is derived from various sources and usually processed via a treatment plant before being supplied to us as consumers. Many local municipal supplies go through a chemical treatment process and as a result are free from bacteria and viruses; however some local water schemes and smaller water suppliers are not.
Common concerns from consumers are mostly associated to: chlorine, fluoride and some trace level contaminants such as heavy metals, herbicides and pesticides in our water along with taste and odour issues.
