Our solutions for water efficient buildings
Water efficient buildings require the smart specification and configuration of water treatment technologies and products. Our specialist approach will also identify potential areas of water efficiency, including the use of alternative supplies such as boreholes, rainwater and greywater supplies. Whether you are a developer, a facilities manager or a self-builder, Lubron can add value to
your project.

BUILDING WATER TREATMENT
Virus and bacteria control
Air humidification systems and equipment represent a potential source of transmission of viruses and bacteria, including legionella. By using demineralised water to sterilise equipment, health risks can be negated. Lubron’s building water treatment specialists understand the challenges, have extensive knowledge of legislation and regulations and can specify the appropriate technology to deliver the best performance for every environment.
Energy efficiency
Specifying or improving energy efficiency is key to any modern water efficient building. Heating and cooling costs represent a significant share of energy consumption. A sustainable building relies on efficient cooling and heating systems. With the correct water treatment, heat transfer can remain optimal for longer, resulting in fiscal savings and a reduced carbon footprint.
Performance and reliability
From water sources to heating and cooling systems, efficient water treatment improves the sustainability and running costs of any building. Lubron’s team of building water treatment services experts will identify opportunities for optimum performance at maximum efficiency, with solutions that will stand the test of time. From a listed historic building to a state of the art new development, Lubron can design, manufacture and maintain the perfect solution.
Depending on water quality requirements, a number of techniques can be applied in the building services sector.
METHODS OF MAKING BUILDINGS WATER EFFICIENT
Water softening
The right water softening solution can eliminate scale deposits in equipment. Additionally, in cooling and boiler systems, the service life and efficiency of equipment can be significantly extended by preventing corrosion and scale deposits.
Water Softening SystemsDemineralisation
Salts and minerals can be found in pipes and in spring water. In order to treat this issue, water is desalted, a process also referred to as demineralisation, using Reverse Osmosis (RO). To achieve purified water, the RO water receives a secondary treatment with electro-deionisation (EDI).
Water DemineralisationFiltration
Filtration occurs in nature when rain water passes between many layers of sand and gravel. The gravel and sand act as a filter to collect solid particles and therefore leave the water pure. This process has been adapted to achieve the same effect in the building industry.
Industrial Water FiltrationMicrobiological control
Lubron provides the expertise and solutions to help mitigate the risks associated with microbiological control. Our products, consultancy services, accredited courses, chemical water treatments, and the latest technology, including UV-disinfection and reverse osmosis, ensure a safe and healthy environment with optimal equipment and system reliability.
