Bacterial Contamination: One of the primary causes is the detection of bacteria like E. coli or other pathogens in the water supply, which could indicate a breach in water treatment or distribution systems.
Water Main Breaks: These incidents can introduce contaminants into the water system from the surrounding environment.
Treatment Failures: Sometimes, water treatment facilities might experience equipment malfunctions or unexpected disruptions that compromise water quality.
Natural Disasters: Events like floods or earthquakes can compromise water quality by introducing pollutants into the water system.
Loss of Pressure: A significant drop in water pressure can allow contaminants to enter the pipes, necessitating a boil water notice to ensure safety until the issue is resolved.
In response to these challenges, Penguin Water offers innovative solutions to ensure safe and clean water. Two effective solutions are ultraviolet (UV) water treatment systems and advanced filtration cartidges, such as our Zeta-Charge filters.
Our UV Water Treatment Systems impart a high dose of ultraviolet light to neutralize harmful microorganisms, including bacteria, viruses, and protozoa. These systems equipped with user-friendly LCD interfaces alert users when it's time to change the UV bulb, ensuring continuous protection and water safety.
