BIOFOULING AND BIOFILM

Biofouling is the uncontrolled growth of organic matter in a universal water usage  environment. Biofouling develops on existing biofilm and will spread the biomass downstream. It will clogg, in sections of the pipe, the higher parts will break away and spread to areas within the system under the flow of this sector. Eg inlet to geysers, heat pumps, heat exchangers boilers, gauges, valves, pipe surfaces, pumps, washing machines, dishwashing machines, kettles, and throughout all.

Limescale buildup in pipe

 

Biofilm and biofouling is present in all water, even fresh water harvested from rain will show signs of algae on the the outlets and in the tank. Our water systems, without question, be it, from our homes to any and all Industries are subject to biofilm and biofouling.

We are fortumate to have a technology, invented by geniuses, so advanced that we can, with surprisingly little effort and in a gentle way, begin to treat our most precious commodity in an effective, versatile and ongoing way. On going meaning 24 hours per day and 7 days a week, because water content is constantly producing variables and cocktails unkown to us. Biofouling is now exposed and we have the viable means to treat it. Thanks to the MERUS Ring Technology we can treat every aspect of biofouling with the confidence that it will clean the internal water surfaces of our water ways, whether they are our homes or outside in the public domains.     

Limescale buildup in pipe

WHAT IS BIOFILM

Biofilms form at all interfaces. At the water / air interface, which is an open water surface. Or in our case at the water / pipe – boundary surface.

The biofilm formation starts with a small inpurity. Which, either emerged with the feed water or other fluids in the water lines or system. This inpurity might be in the form of bacterium or microbes in the feed water, or dead algaes from a cooling tower. These settle in a spot and the process of biofilm formation starts.

The biofilm structure is mostly gelatinous, glue-like, slimy films of microorganisms. It might be bacterial cells or other microbial organisms. Sometimes the bacterium living in the biofilm formations are pathogenetic, as for instance legionella, but in most cases taxonomically widely diverse and comprise of viruses and bacteria, as well as unicellular and multicellular eukaryotes.

Hospitality

Restaurants

Restaurants rely on incoming water from Municipal supply (in cities) Country Restaurants (boreholes) They need clean contaminant free water for food preparation, cleaning of biofouling throughout. Equipment, appliances and preparation implements are all subject to water cleaning and preservation. The toilets and hand washing facilities are of prime concern to patrons and staff.

Main Offenders: Lime scale, high TDS, hardness, pathogens and bacteria due to biofouling.

Hotels & B ‘n B s

Hotels and B ‘n B s. Rely on both municipal and borehole water. Also use rain harvested water. They have guests using all of their facilities from the shower to the laundry. They prepare food and maintain kitchens, bathrooms and general facilities shared by all.  The water use is high including pool, pool care and maintenance of their water heating appliances.

Main Offenders; Lime scale, algae, high TDS, water hardness, biofouling, high maintenance costs and replacement of appliances.

Guest Houses and Lodges

Guest Houses and Lodges. Rely on Municipal and borehole water supply. Also use rain harvested water. They have the same water situation as the Hotels – Game lodges are subject to greater challenges and would benefit from the reduction of lime scale and TDS. The cost of water heating would be greatly reduced by the control of lime scale and TDS. Maintenance and running cost would also be reduced

Main Offenders ; Lime scale, TDS, water hardness, biofouling, high maintenance, biofouling and algae in the fresh water tanks.

Catering

Catering.  Rely on Municipal Water unless a country operation which has a borehole. High level of food preparation in house taken off premises to outside venues – lots of handling and transporting means exposure. Facilities need biofouling control and thorough cleaning, constant clean water for food preparation essential, heating equipment cannot function effectively.

Main Offenders; Lime scale, biofouling equipment protection, clean water to prepare food, eliminate possible cause for contamination.

Medical Facilities

Hospitals

Generally Hospitals rely on Municipal Water but of late the need for water has caused many facilities to drill boreholes and install harvesting tanks.

All water regardless of the source, has a need to be Merus treated due to the multiple elements and contaminants present. Especially as most hospitals store water in tanks and gravity feed to the wards, theatres, autoclaves and ablution facilities. Most of their water is heated constantly which is not  healthy and increases the presence of unseen TDS and solved elements. With the correct placement of Merus Rings Hospitals can save on water supply, water treatment and water facility maintenance. The water is far softer and has a better taste and any fear of Legionella’s Disease is neutralized. All bacteria, pathogens and biofouling are removed from the presence of pipes and equipment. Extremely important and necessary treatment.

Clinics

Generally clinics are smaller than hospitals and lack facilities. Many of them are over booked and the outpatient traffic is intense. They have usually a Municipal feed but some have water harvesting tanks which are all in need of treatment. The biofouling element in clinics is very high, as well as the general placement of germs in the toilets and ablution conditions, due to high population. They are usually over run with physical demand and do not have the financial or manpower potential to keep the conditions under control. Perfect venue for a Merus Solution.   

Laboratories and Test Facilitation

Generally clean and well run but not impervious to tarnished water or water conditions being subject to the same conditions as above.

However, water conditions of supplied water and the circumstances inside the pipes and utility equipment do not get a reprieve because the external environment is clean. Microbes and bacteria exist in all water and do not  discriminate between a home, a hotel or a laboratory.

Doctors Rooms and Out Patient Treatment Centre's

Water conditions are subject to the premises and or water supply but generally subject to the above.

Once again in this situation the environment is clean which appears to be germ free, however, people who arrive to see a doctor have an infection or an allergy that will react or spread if combined with any additional pathogen/s or strain of bacteria lurking inside the water within their pipes. If someone uses a toilet, basin or drinks some water to take medication or needs to hydrate, the reaction could be serious.

Institutions

Old Age Homes

The situation in all homes is the same in terms of water conditions within the pipe world. In an Old Age Home you have a series of added situations in the behaviour of the person and the way in which the water is managed. Firstly, when humans get old their desire and ability to clean themselves under goes a change. Not because of any failed premise or bad habitual behaviour but due to the degree of difficulty and immobility of the person and a general lack of interest. This is why they have carers who are employed to do the necessary functions, who are generally not as efficient as they could be and do not do this function well enough. Old people get used to “getting by” and do not wish to make any fuss because they feel that they are a burden and in many cases, even though they are grossly neglected, they elect to keep quiet and continue to exist with conditions as they are and do not question much.

Secondly, the water is heated constantly and many Nursing Homes and Old Age Homes suffer from contamination in the pipes known as Legionella’s Disease, this is generally not tested for and is one of many variations. The first port of call is to treat the water for all possibilities. Destroy the symptoms and over a short but effective time period provide cleaner and healthier water.

“This picture shows Legionella in a petri dish under microscopic conditions.” In many cases where water is heated and allowed to cool down in the pipes Legionella reacts to the habitat.

Retirement Centre's and Complexes

Once again we have a similar if not identical water supply situation and the internal living conditions are very much the same in the lives of the elderly. However, more importantly the vital factor is the water is to be kept free of any type of bacteria or contamination. The amount of external contamination in public water is alarming – from turbidity to legionella and coliforms to E-Coli, present within the water systems, this needs to be addressed immediately. Not to mention the need to reduce running costs and maintenance of geysers and household appliances.

Boarding Schools and Universities

For young people water is water and they take the commodity for granted. They drink from taps by putting their mouths over the tape exit and shower in communal facilities without understanding the concept of contracting fungal infestations or diseases. Add contamination to the way they taught to function and the rate of infection continues to climb. Lifelong aliments, like athlete’s foot never go away and chest or lung infections remain for life. Many variations remain present in our water which through time are added to these and the cause is never known. Biofouling increases day by day.   

Special Facility Centre's for Handicapped or Psychiatric Care

Due to the very nature of these special treatment centres a greater amount of concern goes into the functions of looking after the patients. The day to day running of the facility is naturally of high concern but the budgets are tight and the distraction factor is a reality. The condition of the water is not a priority but if biofouling exists throughout these facilities and not highly exposed and they try to get by as best they can. But, from food preparation to ablutions many reason for Merus treatment would be found and institute a welcome saving and vast improvement.

Agriculture

Borehole Conditioning

As we know the water derived directly from a borehole is untreated (raw) water from deep within the ground. It is subject to dissolved solids, (like iron, magnesium, potassium etc.), gasses, tributary accumulation of pathogens and impurities that occupy the underground waterways.

A Merus Ring, strategically placed will treat the content of the water as it passes through the pipe, past the ring’s position of placement. The frequencies emitted from the ring will convert the dissolved solids from  large whole (mostly unseen) bodies within the fluid to Nano particles and will change calcium carbonate and sodium to effectively having no physical presence in the water. It destroys bacteria and pathogens – including microbes and all major sources of biofouling.

By creating a back flow (inserting a saddle with an elbow and a return pipe to the well of the borehole) the process of treatment starts before the water is pumped out of the well. Thus, the walls of the well and the equipment within the well will benefit from the Merus treatment. See diagram

Depending on the space or length of pipe after exiting the borehole after the spot where the ring is placed, you will create the return flow to the borehole well. (Between 1 – 3 meters, past the ring)

Please do not hamper the flow from the pump with a large return pipe – consider the hydraulic output and use no more than a 16 mm outlet. Borehole pipes are similar in size – if you are unsure of what size to place on your system please call 076 108 0951.

Allow the return pipe to reach the water level where it would average in depth.

Irrigation and plant nutrition

As is the case with all of the users of water in every circumstance the quality of the water is vital to the efficiency of the system. Because water doesn’t appear to have any biofouling and biomass in it the story could be a very different one under close inspection.

 Hard water contains lime scale and salts which can settle in pipes and especially in small valves or sprinklers. If the water itself contains iron, metallic pipes are harmed by corrosion. Plants develop a brown color, which is an indicator of iron in the water. Lately, biofilm or biomass is a current problem in farms and private irrigation systems. Once the system is contaminated with microbial growth, it constantly produces new biomass. The risk of blocked pipes in the whole system gets higher and higher. Where the irrigation is also used for fertilizers, the efficiency of the fertilizer can be affected negatively and it is difficult to estimate the right amount of fertilizers. The nutrition of the plants and the soil is the focal point and an extremely cost sensitive issue.

Reducing Lime scale, Rust and Biofilm with Merus Rings

Chemical water treatment is not possible for economic or ecological reasons, physical water treatment can be an option. We provide Merus Rings which are a sustainable solution for problems around exposed water systems. The trick is to keep foreign substances solved in the water. As long as they don’t settle but are flushed out of the system constantly – blocked pipes are not an issue anymore. Rust (redox), biofilm and lime scale cannot be effectively treated chemically by one single method and constantly sustained – only the Merus Technology can do this. The result is amazing and at a fraction of a cent per liter.

Animal watering

Water in sufficient quantity and quality is the basic prerequisite for sustainable and successful farming. Whether it’s growing plant and animal or fish farming. Only with a good water quality you are able to use the full potential of your natural resources. Unfortunately, rain is very unevenly distributed in this world. We’ve got enough rain in the northern hemisphere for agriculture. But looking at the hot and dry summers of recent years, most probably caused by the climate change, have shown how easily it can affect our farmers. The pictures of crop failures or lower crop yields due to lack of water, are still in the minds of the farmers. For many the natural progression for survival has been to convert to operations of livestock as poultry, beef, pork or sheep farming is more viable or some might have thought.

The remaining condition which remains a massive necessity is water. The quantity as well as the quality are vital.

The better the quality, the actual condition of the water is soon detected, by animals (when water tastes bad, too salty or full of iron and rust, and in many cases magnesium combined with copper) and the water is hard it is hazardous for animals and humans alike. Most farms provide their own water from boreholes or natural water sources like rivers. Without knowing the content of the water they use this water for their animal watering.

The less an animal drinks the more it needs to eat and visa-versa, but in order to create good condition and a healthy stomach water is the key. If you observe an animal that drinks high volumes of water due to the “better” condition of the water they will eat proportionately less and gain condition a lot quicker. These animals need less parasite control and are generally a far more economic proposition. There are many additives to create condition and assist with the nutritional balance of animal feeding (at a cost) but soon undone with bad water.

We are positive that correctly placed Merus Rings will improve the quality of the water on any farm and enhance the health of every “drinking creature” on that farm.          

 

Stalls, stables and production.

Farming is hard work and keeping the standards of hygiene up to an acceptable level takes time and money but physical labour as well.

Regardless of what the operation is – the most important factor is water. The most important part of the water is mostly unseen and needs to be checked by a laboratory to see the chemistry and condition of the water available. It is then determined from the lab result how to treat the water and what system needs to be implemented.

The labs do not provide a report related to biofouling or the content of microbes in this water. They will test for bacteria if requested to (as a standard test) and it comes with a cost, but these tests are limited to the standard forms of coliforms and E-Coli – but the many microbiological elements associated with biofilm and biofouling are completely overlooked.

Poultry, cattle, pigs, as protein providers need to eat, drink and sleep in clean healthy environments to be components of a food chain and this starts with the quality of the water.

The conditions related to the production of milk and dairy products on the premises needs to be maintained in accordance with a health code. (no mention of a certain standard of water required) Water is water and only the farmer is aware of the condition of his water. Water contamination is responsible for the fatality of millions of chicks annually. (Just one example)

Vegetable packaging and cleaning. Pre-washing and packing is a major operation on any farm and usually labour and equipment intensive. If this operation is not hygienic it is potentially hazardous to many consumers on a daily basis. The quality of this water is imperative to success. Apart from the water the crop needs to drink it needs to be presented to its consumers clean and safe to eat.

Farms are businesses with economic, environmental and personnel related challenges prevalent every single day. A highly recommended place to start improvement is with the water supply.    

Home and dwelling usage

Firstly, when there is a scarcity of water and one is forced to look for water for your family and then your staff and then your animals you become aware of the real necessities of life. There is a new responsibility which becomes a stark reality and then a vital priority.

Farm water is usually from a borehole. If large scale irrigation is used there could be river or dammed water in use. Either way the main offenders are primarily lime scale and the elements like sodium, iron, magnesium, potassium, boron and due to the iron redox has occurred and the water is an orange colour. The water taste is unpleasant and the composition is hard. The Merus technology is designed to reduce the elements to very small in effective particles and remove the calcium carbonate (Lime scale) and by undoing the combination of elements individually the water becomes softer and tastes sweet and is safe to drink. All bacteria, pathogens, solved elements, microbes and microbiological infestations, biofilm and biofouling are obliterated from the Merus treated water path.

It is completely suitable for animal and human consumption and based upon the savings of appliances, vet bills, doctors bills and the replacement and maintenance of equipment it is highly viable and economic. Calculated by the water usage over 5 years into the cost of Merus Ring/s the solution is a fraction of a cent per liter.     

Staff provision

Farming personnel operations in many instances include methods of accommodation, as in living quarters being provided or a place upon which a dwelling can be erected. There is a permanence and through this a good bond of understanding where a farm worker can have his family and home upon the land where he works as a form of security. This means the provision of water and in some cases electricity if the nature of the relationship and the placement of the dwelling permits. However, the water provided is of vital importance as it is required for food preparation and hydration. There is a family consisting of an adult male and female and generally children, therefore the health and welfare are the responsibility of the provider.

The Merus technology is extremely necessary in this type of environment. We need to eliminate any health hazard from the work force at all times.

High rise buildings and Office blocks

In South Africa the major development of high rise buildings and office blocks, in the cities and surrounding infrastructures occurred as long as 60 – 80 years ago and the pipe networks are in the walls.

Many office blocks are 40 – 50 years old. These old buildings have pipe infrastructures which are probably in need of replacement but the cost is prohibitive.

The solution is the Merus Technology. If you have brown water in your taps and toilets you have rust and corrosion in your pipes. You must contact us without any delay.

Health and Home

The most important part of the Health And Home market is you and your family, but your home is also an important part of this equation.

Firstly, the content of water is the same in your home as anywhere in the world and you need to protect your asset against corrosion and biofouling pollution for the sake of your and your family’s health.  In every case the behaviour of the elements will do to your pipes and appliances what it does systematically to every water environment known to man. Take the necessary steps now. Call us today.

Complexes – Residential, Commercial and Industrial

All complexes are fed by the Municipal Water System but could have a borehole and/or rain harvesting tanks in place for additional water.

The water will be fed to all of the units in the complex and will contain what all water contains and will affect every unit in the complex in the same way. Most Complexes are managed by a Managing Agent, or an appointed body which would be a member of NAMA (National Association of Managing Agents) who will look after the day to day procurement of necessary solutions to the many of the issues that are necessary to manage a complex.

Complexes are joint asset entities and have very secure managing processes with a methodical approach to the management of security, water quality, power supply and daily if not hourly maintenance. The insightful utilization of Merus Technology will enhance the quality of the water and repair the inner surfaces of the pipes, appliances, water heating systems and save much money. It makes sense.

If you are an owner, resident, Managing Agent, or maintenance manager of one of these entities – call us today – this is a game changer for everyone.

New Developments

Regardless of the nature of the development or construction, it is being hooked up to a water system which has the same ancient water content problems of all water. This means that the developers have already provided a water quality sustaining technology that needs maintenance, additives, replacement parts and service contracts to function. We can simplify the need for chemicals, additives and expensive purification systems that cost vast sums of money to maintain. We also protect and provide a guarantee to the longevity of the components and water transport surfaces that water will reside in for long periods of time, indefinitely. We can also assure the users of the water, that this technology will reduce the long term risk of biofouling in their water system across the board.

Future Developments

The future of water treatment is Merus Water Treatment. Those responsible for the new developments being planned and created will applaud the genius and simplicity of this gentle but far reaching technology. One common factor prevails, now in the present and will in the future, the water we are using and receiving from the supply sources, have the same content and travel through the same infrastructure as all  the water which is currently in use. The source cannot be changed, but the internal habitat of the infrastructure can be changed to a cleaner and safer environment free of lime scale, pathogens, bacteria, microbiological biofouling  and corrosion. From the source to the outlet o the user. (In an ideal Merus world)    

Mining and Industrial

General supply for stope or open cast mining

Mining is not exactly an easy or typical type of Industrial scenario. Underground mining has many challenges and the planning in order to follow the most economic mineral route/s is but one of the many vital necessities to practice a viable concern and generate a return on an enormous investment. Providing water to the many working sections of a mine is a challenge unto itself due to the extensive area and complexity of the workings of a metalliferous mine. The development of shafts to go down into the earth and place platform lifts to operate a service for the transport of personnel, equipment and development components, such as pipes, pumps and water flow control devices.

The Development ends (access tunnels) follow the minerals and dependent upon the gradient of the mineral body in the sub-strata stopes are cut by drilling and removing just enough rock to get the yield of ore presented for reduction. The water pipe installations follow the development. They need water for the drilling process, to control dust and for drinking. This water needs to be clean and cold because the conditions underground are hot and humid. The lime scale and elements play a significant role in mining water and the water quality is usually not up to standard. The Merus Treatment would certainly resolve all of the immediate treatment criteria and would restore the old supply pipes installed from the surface.

All of the rock faces being worked, need water all day and the reduction plant uses a very high percentage of the mine’s water reserve. The pipe sizes are big and the equipment is expensive to maintain and or replace. Merus would save any mine an extensive amount of operating capital.

Protection of piping and equipment

The nature of lime scale is to cling and coat most surfaces, that is, while water is flowing it is a carrier of many different elements and lime scale (calcium carbonate) is one of these. Lime scale clings to the surface of metal, cement, plastic, porcelain, and asbestos. In fact, any material used in water heating, water storage, water transfer, (pipes) or water use facilitation. E.g. valves, bends, gauges etc. The lime scale continues to build up a solid crust over a good period of time and provides a bed for microbes and microbiological organisms to land settle and grow.

Two different things happen – this is the root cause of biofouling and biomass build up in pipes and appliances.  Then redox occurs and rust appears between the lime scale and the surface it clings to and the rust corrodes the pipe of whatever it is clinging to and the damage occurs. Geysers are a typical target.

On the mines the typical targets are the long range pipe infrastructures, pumps and valves/flanges/junctions and T Pieces. Metal underground is no match for the elements resident in water.

Until now –

These surfaces have an ally – called the Merus Ring. The process eliminates lime scale, breaks up solved elements like iron, obliterates bacteria, it reverses redox and halts corrosion under water.

Technology way ahead of its time and it is highly cost effective (guaranteed for 5 years) and convenient, needs no power to run, no supervision or operators necessary and eliminates chemicals.

U-Plants and Reduction facilities

The build up inside a reduction plant piping structure is extreme and the pipe sections are subject to high chemical as well as elemental processes. These sections need careful assessment prior to suggestion of remedies as the flow rates play a role as well as the pipe sizes and results required but the need for cost reduction and efficiency outweighs all other aspects.

Biofouling control of total plant

Due to the diverse water sources mines are forced to use the presence of microbiological bacteria and biofouling in all and every sector of a mine is present. The way to address this is to place Merus Rings at strategic points and ensure the best coverage. Specifically the ablution facilities.

Microbiologically Induced Corrosion (MIC) is responsible for 50% of the serious corrosion that occurs on mines in South Africa. MIC is 30% more aggressive than normal redox induced conversion.

In all Industrial Applications – biofouling is winning the battle and the cost continues to rise. Look into the cost effective solution provided by Merus and you will convert.

High end need for food and beverage manufacturers

The labour, the cost of chemicals and the cost of chemical control, the cost of management thereof, and the outrages waste of resources is becoming a crippling and non-marginal factor in food and beverage manufacturing.  It is also not effective enough to say the problem is under control.

Biofouling is basically non-stoppable without the correct tools and weapons to deal with it – Merus Technology is exactly that. Have a look at what we have to offer and join the revolution.

Health and Home

Household incoming water

All households are generally subject to three types of water supply and there are some exceptions.

Municipal Supply. Most rely on the local authority to provide water to the property. The simple facts are the water contains salts, elements, dissolved solids, pathogens and bacteria. This water, although it has been treated, travels through many kilometres of polluted internal pipe conditions which influence the water adversely. The water authorities have done a really great of supplying potable water to the masses but the infrastructural conditions have aged and deteriorated over time and the inside story of pipes and what water contains is no longer a secret. Solution Merus.

Borehole Supply. Due to the lack of water and the paranoia around being without water, and the scarcity of the most precious commodity, people have opted for a back up plan. Boreholes provide untreated water and this water is usually (95%) brackish water which contains large amounts of iron, magnesium, sodium, potassium, boron and many, many more. Combine this with calcium carbonate and your water is extremely hard and harsh and it tastes like gas or blood. It also smells pretty bad. With a Merus Ring well placed this could be reversed. The lime scale is calcium carbonate and it is in large supply which deals heavily with your pipes and appliances. Merus recommended for sure and it works like a miracle.   

Harvested Rain Water. The problem with rain water harvesting is people have a general opinion that it is not prone to biofouling because it is fresh rain water. This is unfortunately not true and it is soon a haven for algae created from microbes and organisms unseen by the human eye. The walls of the pipes – inlet and outlet become infected first then the walls of the storage tank/s. Rain water tastes better than borehole water when fresh but it soon become contaminated.

Bottled water. Once again the misconception is what bottles are being used. New bottles contain release agents internally and externally based on the vac forming system used. Secondly if you are using old bottles they are 10 – 1 not washed and have been used. Bottled, or reverse osmosis water is very expensive and both are extremely unhealthy. Your body needs soft, clean, good quality water.

Complexes and water supply

Residential Living Complexes do not have standard or identical water supply or usage conditions. But, they are similar.

Firstly, consider the water you are receiving, although treated, has travelled many kilometres through contaminated and polluted water pipes.

Usually the situation is as follows ; the incoming water is from the Municipality and feeds to a ring main and by doing so it travels a fair distance and then feeds to each unit from a junction off the ring main to a sub line, and then to the unit. Each time it changes destination the pipe becomes slightly smaller.

In this case the travelling distance to the actual points of usage are internally saturated with biofouling conditions and the entire water supply path needs to be treated so that the inner walls of the pipes from the main feed point to the users home use, is clean and free from the contaminants, inherent in the water. As each “off shoot” loses some frequency we place rings strategically to ensure longevity and effective coverage.

The next matter in this scenario is the addition of a borehole to the supply due to the scarcity of water. The borehole water will generally feed into the existing water supply line (cost saving exercise) and it has a host of different contaminations. This “raw” water needs to be treated as well but not by reverse osmosis. With a couple of Merus Rings the borehole water can be rendered completely safe to use. The usual contaminants in borehole water are immediately converted and rendered ineffective. The work on the water lines continues to treat the water content and the lines are safe.

The harvested water will need to have a ring on the inlet of each tank. These tanks of free fresh water soon become polluted with microbiological organisms (from the gutter on the roof and they multiply in the tank from heat and sunlight) they are breeding grounds for bacteria.

Cost effective to the average family

Our Merus Ring is guaranteed to work for 5 years. (Manufacturer’s Guaranty) The average use in a house hold is approximately 3 million litres over a  5 year period.

This means if you divide the cost of a ring by the volume of water used you will see it costs a fraction of a cent per litre.

But, it saves your geyser from rust and corrosion and removes lime scale from the element. (If you have only 1 millimetre of lime scale on your element you will use 14% more power)

The lime scale ruins your washing machine, dish washer, kettle, porcelain in the toilets, baths and basins, and it destroys your pipes from the inside. Merus technology protects your home and your assets. With lime scale removal from the inner world of water you will need less maintenance and repairs. The rust in the pipes will be cured by the conversion of redox and oxidation. Over a period of time you will notice your family has less allergies and everyone is healthy and well. YOUR WATER IS THE MOST IMPORTANT PART OF YOUR LIFE. It is time to understand the inside story of water.

Also, once you have a ring there are no hidden costs of more costs of ownership – it needs no power to run and no maintenance – it is a new age MIRACLE.

Health wise considerations

The most important issue in life is living healthily. Right? We all make such a fuss about health but the biggest enemy is right under our noses.

If you have too much metal in your body you are a conductor of electro-magnetic and atmospheric current and influences. Covid 19 came to Europe and to Africa from Asia via the atmospheric waves that connect and travel. Iron is a solved solid element in your water and is a body of connected collective molecules. As a body it is absorbed but cannot be digested of utilized effectively and is dangerous due to where it places itself in the body. Combine this foreign body with lead and magnesium of potassium and sodium and you have a constant poisoning of the system happening until the symptoms are diagnosed which they usually are seen as something else and incorrectly treated. The best solution is to drink Merus Water and get yourself safe from toxic metal in the water.

The next issue is microbiological organisms that land and germinate everywhere, Including inside your body. Microbes are the biggest form of biofouling and your human body is a great host. From your pipes to your bath or shower to your food and to your drinking water into – your body – and you are a qualified host – bingo. The Merus Technology will free you of this hidden enemy.

Pathogen and bacteria elimination (unseen)

Merus has a direct effect on microorganisms and  their breeding places. The lime scale and the accumulation of organisms in the water world is not selective and it exists in Industrial, domestic and in highly sophisticated laboratories. Only when the removal and elimination has occurred can we be safe from the biofouling and unseen pollution created by the elements and presence of microbes and pathogenic material within the water we live with, consume and use every day of our lives.
