Plumbers’ installing water conditioning appliances


water treatment chemistry

When it comes to water treatment systems, hiring a skilled plumber is essential. Plumbers who have reached the master's level are experts in plumbing envelopes, roughing in piping, and installing plumbing fixtures. They possess the knowledge to determine hydraulic flows, pressure head, and friction loss in various plumbing systems, ensuring optimal performance within water supply distribution networks. However, it is crucial to have plumbers working under the guidance of water specialists when planning water systems based on the actual chemistry at the point of use water source.



Water Turbidity

One area where this partnership is particularly important is where there are competing contaminants. Determining the capacity of a water softener requires expertise in resin technology, in addition to considering daily flow volumes. When there are additional complexities considering the cocktail of contaminants that one must understand. Water chemistry goes well beyond hydraulics for equipment installations. This is necessary in order to solve the root problems and achieving the highest percent removals. Conducting such analysis requires a more advanced set of skills than those taught in standard plumbing apprenticeships. Achieving optimum performance from water treatment equipment goes well beyond simply plumbing an appliance into a treatment train and switching it on. It involves a deep understanding of water chemistry and the ability to adjust settings and components when faced with competing contaminants. This level of expertise is the wheelhouse of a water treatment specialist, not a plumber.

Brent Hambly, the founder of Hambly Water Conditioning, started his career with Culligan where he learned the fundamentals of water chemistry before he opened his own shop focusing on higher quality components for his own designs. You should choose an established company for your water treatment needs.


In sum, achieving optimum performance from water treatment equipment requires taking samples/chemistries than designing the most effective and efficient treatment train. A professional installation involves more than pipe fitting and just switching an appliance on. It involves an understanding of water chemistry and the ability to adjust internal components of the equipment's when faced with competing contaminants found in most water supplies these days. This level of expertise is only found with those who have studied water chemistry, public health, and limnology, (applied science) in addition to attention to things like pipe fitting, plastics, and bimetallic corrosion.
