Water Filters: Many Types and Styles Available

There are many types and styles of water filters. They all remove impurities from your water in different ways. They can use a fine barrier such as an actual filter, a chemical process that kills bacteria and other microorganisms, or they can use a biological process. The wide range of filters can be used for everything from your drinking water, to your swimming pool and even pond water .

Water filters use a variety of processes such as absorption, straining and particle exchanges. They remove a range of contaminants ranging from microscopic particles that are smaller than the water particles, through to bacteria, sand, silt and organic material. The reason why there are so many types of filtration is because no one-filter process removes all of the types of contaminants.

The best filtration systems use a combination of processes to ensure everything is removed. They must also be used in a certain order so that they don’t interfere with the next step and perform at optimal quality. At times water filters can be combined with digital water treatment to produce an even better water treatment result.

Water Filters: How They Work

Water filter systems operate by removing the largest particles first then in a series of stages, capturing progressively smaller sediment particles. Following this, then chemical treatment (i.e. softening) or physical treatment (UV or conditioning) can take place and be at its most effective. By operating in the order it was designed in, allows the process to work at its most optimal.

Another type of filtration that Southern’s Water can supply is reverse osmosis (RO). This is where the main water filter is made from such a fine material that only water molecules are able to pass through it, making the water nearly completely pure. Since this process is so precise, water must be pre-treated before this stage because the membrane cannot handle a large amount of particulates. Once complete, your water is virtually free of all micro-bacteria and organic matter and is as pure as it can get.
