Calcium Treatment Units (CTUs)

BanHard Calcium Treatment Units (or CTUs) are an extremely effective range of water filter systems which contain de-alkalisation media to reduce limescale and improve the taste of incoming feed water to most commercial water heating and cooling equipment including vending equipment, coffee machines, combination ovens, water boilers and baking ovens. Left unprotected this kitchen equipment will form a build of lime scale which will damage elements, chamber and sensors. This will lead to high cost break downs and service call outs causing unwanted kitchen down time.
