Cryptosporidium
Effectively treat water that contains Cryptosporidium parasites - Households & holiday homes.
How do you to treat Cryptosporidium issues in your home?
Before addressing what to do about Cryptosporidium, you first need to understand the impact it can have on those who consume or use contaminated water.
Cryptosporidium is a microscopic parasite that causes severe diarrhoea, nausea, vomiting and fever. Because the parasite is protected by an outer shell it can live outside the body for long periods of time, making it tolerant to chlorine disinfection. This means even chlorine-treated mains water can become contaminated causing a Cryposporidium outbreak and affecting whole communities.
This can have a devastating impact on your family or guests that use the contaminated water for drinking, showering, preparing food or teeth cleaning. The good news, there are a number of water filtration system options that will ensure your water is safe from the parasites and other contaminants.
HYBRID-G13
