Tap water quality varies greatly depending on the region. Limescale, chlorine, impurities, unpleasant tastes or micro-organisms can affect daily comfort and damage domestic installations. Treating your home's water is therefore not a luxury, but a sustainable solution to preserve your health, your equipment and your well-being.
Water treatment specialist, DIMM assists individuals in choosing solutions suited to their needs. Today there are several complementary processes, each addressing a specific problem. Discover the 5 main water treatment processes and DIMM expertise to guide you toward the most effective solution.
Untreated water can cause many problems:
limescale deposits on fixtures and pipes,
reduced performance of water heaters and household appliances,
unpleasant taste or odor of water,
presence of particles or unwanted residue.
Water treatment improves the quality of water used daily, extends the lifespan of equipment, reduces energy consumption and increases the comfort of the whole family.

Water softening is one of the most common processes in homes. It aims to reduce water hardness, that is, its calcium and magnesium content, responsible for limescale.
Thanks to an ion exchange system, the water softener replaces these minerals with sodium, making water softer. The benefits are numerous: less scale, protected equipment, softer skin and hair, and reduced consumption of household products.

Filtration is an essential solution for removing visible impurities present in water, such as sand, mud or sediments. It is often the first stage of a complete treatment.
There are different types of filters, including sediment filters and pre-filters, which protect installations and improve the quality of water distributed throughout the home. Filtration also protects downstream equipment, such as water softeners or purification systems.

Reverse osmosis is one of the most powerful water treatment processes available. Thanks to an extremely fine membrane, it eliminates up to 99% of contaminants: nitrates, heavy metals, pharmaceutical residues, bacteria and dissolved salts.
This system is mainly used for drinking water, generally under the kitchen sink. It guarantees very pure water, ideal for sensitive or demanding people about water quality. However, this process requires appropriate installation and regular maintenance.

Ultraviolet disinfection (UV) neutralizes micro-organisms, bacteria and viruses present in water, without adding chemical products. Water passes through a chamber equipped with a UV lamp that destroys germs through radiation.
This process is particularly recommended for homes supplied by drilling or wells, or when the microbiological quality of water is uncertain. UV disinfection is often combined with prior filtration for optimal effectiveness.

Every home is unique. The choice of a treatment process depends on several criteria:
water quality (prior analysis),
household needs,
water use (drinking, sanitary, appliances),
budget and technical constraints.
This is why an accurate diagnosis is essential before any installation. A poorly adapted solution can be ineffective or unnecessarily expensive.
