Cooking equipment provide a main source of revenue for foodservice operations. Unfiltered
water contains chlorine, chloramines and other minerals that can cause harmful scale
buildup and corrosion. Prevent untimely equipment downtime with the following water
treatment units:
Hollow Carbon Filters
The disinfectant chloramine may be new to you, but it's not new to water treatment
facilities. Some have been using it for 90 years. Monochloramine is 200 times less
effective as a disinfectant than chlorine. Chloramines are organic compounds made
of 80 percent chlorine and 20 percent ammonia. Today many municipalities across
the country are using chloramines, in addition to chlorine, to disinfect their water.
When chloramines are heated, they are especially corrosive, causing stainless steel
to pit, rust and turn gray.
Chloramines also negatively impact flavor and cause stainless steel to pit, rust
and turn gray. Hobart's new hollow carbon filter system (CB15K and CB30K) has been
proven to be the most effective system for reducing chlorine and chloramine in water.
It's one of the only NSF-approved chloramine removal filter systems on the market.
You can see (below) how damaging chloramines can be to your water-fed equipment,
even eroding stainless steel components, reducing the life of your equipment.
WS-55 Series Compact Water Softener with the Hollow Carbon Filter
Hobart's new WS-55 Series Compact Water Softener with the Hollow Carbon Filter System
is the industry's only water treatment solution that provides soft water and is
NSF-Certified to reduce harmful chloramines. It features a unique design with specially
activated carbon. As water flows through the filter, it remains in contact with
the filter material longer, removing the chloramines, chlorine, sediment, bad tastes
and odors and other chemical byproducts. In addition, the system creates a virtually
scale-free environment as a result of the softener combined system.
