Hycleen - In 4 steps to optimal drinking water hygiene

Drinking water hygiene is important and affects both our well-being and our health. Thus drinking water installations in buildings must be carefully planned, built and operated. GF Piping Systems provides systems and products for large buildings like hotels, retirement homes, hospitals, sport facilities and apartment buildings.

Hycleen - In 4 Schritten zur optimalen Trinkwasserhygiene

The integral water hygiene concept of GF Piping Systems comprises four areas: Prevention, monitoring, intervention and risk assessment. This approach to secure drinking water hygiene offers numerous advantages especially for existing properties because their given condition can be considered when restoring high-quality drinking water. As refurbishments are executed in stages, preventive measures can often be carried out only occasionally, thermal or chemical disinfection, on the other hand, are ideal in terms of intervention.

1 Prevention

New installation concepts & measures during use preventatively improve drinking water quality.

Drinking water systems with no dead legs
Hydraulic balancing
Drinking water exchange
Avoidance of limestone formation, corrosion and biofilm formation

3 Intervention

If high microbe counts or pathogens are detected in the drinking water sample, this can usually be attributed to not following the preventative measures. Deploying interventions should be used only as a last resort to ensure high quality drinking water.
