LIVE: The Great Water Treatment Debate: Is Chemical-Free the Future?
In this live edition of the Altecnic Podcast at Installer 2025, Ed Morris, Technical Manager at Altecnic, talks with Nathan Gambiing (BetaTeach), Ricky Prescott (Thoroughflush), and Kevin Moore (Kamco Ltd), about the future of water treatment.
Water treatment is essential for system efficiency, longevity, and compliance. With VDI guidelines shaping best practices and sustainability becoming a growing priority, the industry is at a crossroads: should we continue relying on chemical treatments, or is a chemical-free future truly viable?
Key Discussion Points:
VDI & Compliance: What do engineers and specifiers need to know?
Chemical-Free Solutions: Are they practical, effective, and scalable?
Performance vs. Sustainability: Do alternative treatments match up?
The Installer Perspective: What works best in real-world applications?
Future Trends: Where is the industry heading, and what innovations are on the horizon?
