Drinking water or water for sanitary use: what should be treated?
When it comes to improving water quality, one question often comes up: Should we treat only the water we drink, or also consider the water used throughout the home? At Osmodyn, this distinction structures our offer with two complementary universes: Drinking Water on the one hand, Ultra-Filtration on the other.
Two different needs, two different approaches
Drinking water does not serve the same purpose as water used for showering, bathing, washing or general system protection. or general system protection. The Drinking Water universe includes under-sink reverse osmosis systems, mobile reverse osmosis and hydrogenated water solutions, with a consumer-oriented rationale.
Conversely, the Ultra-Filtration universe is organized according to household uses: over & under sink, mains water, rainwater / borehole, shower & bath and fountain & bar. We're no longer just thinking in terms of a glass of water, but in terms of a global approach: comfort of use, quality of domestic water and protection of the installation.
When to treat drinking water only?
Treating only drinking water is relevant when your priority is clear: drinking, cooking, preparing hot drinks or more demanding water at the point of use. With this in mind, Osmodyn osmosis systems are designed for purified and energized water, usually installed in the kitchen.
This is often the most coherent option if your objective concerns :
- the quality of the glass of water,
- taste,
- coffee, tea or food preparation,
- or the search for a more refined drinking water.

When should water for sanitary use also be treated?
When your needs go beyond drinking water alone, it makes sense to think aboutwater for the whole house. This is precisely what Osmodyn's Ultra-Filtration universe covers, with categories focusing on domestic network, rain/drinking, shower and bath.
This approach is particularly relevant when it comes to :
- overall comfort of use,
- water quality at several drawing points,
- certain network-related inconveniences,
- or securing a more specific type of water, such as rainwater or borehole water.

The right question: where is your main need?
It's not just a question of "which product should I choose? where do you want to improve your water?
- At the point of consumption: look at the Drinking Water universe.
- Throughout the home: look at the Ultra-Filtration universe.
- Both: a combination of the two approaches may be the most coherent for your situation.
The Osmodyn approach
The beauty of the Osmodyn approach is that it doesn't reduce water to a single use: solutions for purified and energized drinking water, andultra-filtration solutions designed according to the water and its use. This dual approach enables us to better target each individual need, without having to rely on a single device.
In a nutshell
If your priority is the water you drink, point-of-use treatment is often the most appropriate. If your needs also concern the comfort of your home,mains water, shower, bath orrainwater / borehole, you need to consider a broader approach. At Osmodyn, these two logics clearly exist: Drinking water for consumption, Ultra-Filtration for sanitary and domestic use.
