| Subject | Conventional Standards | optimizations | Benefits |
| Type pre and Post-filter | Conventional housing Replacement filter inserts | Quick change filters AQUAPHOR | Easiest filter change. Hygienically optimal Handling. No incorrect installation possible. Seals new every time the filter is changed. Encapsulated filters. No disinfection Inside of the housing required. Customer doesn't come with new or used filter media in Contact. |
| prefilter | 2 or 3 pre-filters | 1 (combination) pre-filter | Saving space and materials; makes sense if no more polluted water (surface water etc.) is used |
| Leakage protection | None or only conditionally effective over a water sensor | safety water hahn | When not in operation, the system is completely depressurized (!), since they have the safety tap is operated on the input side. Standard systems are always under full line pressure. |
| Pump | Mostly integrated. No choice - possibility whether with or without pump | From 3,5 to 4,0 bar possible and sensible: Waiver of one Pump | The well-known disadvantages of the Pumps: If necessary, critical materials with them the water comes into contact, possible Danger of germs, electrosmog entry (for Users who also focus on the energetic pay attention to the subtle level of water). No Power connection required. |
| Rinse water drain | Connection to the siphon | Additionally preferred: suitor Rinse water drain | A lasting connection between the Drinking water network (cold water inlet) and the Sewage network (siphon) is in accordance with in Germany DIN1988/IV or the new EN1717 avoid. Compliance with this recommendation is possible. |
| Other Water optimization | In closed ones Housings difficult retrofittable. | On a flexible Each additional carrier is the carrier processing stage integrable | Additional option easy to retrofit. |
| components | Usually high and low low pressure switch, various valves and / or sensors | Renunciation of all such components | No risk of failure due to such components, no problems with pressure difference fluctuations. No additional Stagnation zones (dead spaces) for germ nests. |
| Hygiene protection / Mikrobiologie / germs | Mostly none Hygiene protection! Some models equip with UV lamps after (partly critical) | Germ barriers based integrated hollow fiber membrane 0,1μm, one and output side! | Germ barriers are mandatory everywhere where the water is not permanently chlorinated. Osmosis membranes are not barriers to germs (Topics: pinholes, microlesion!). |
| Quality Activated carbon blocks | Mostly without documented quality or just granules | AQUALEN® Technology | Optimization regarding stability, adsorption, Capacity, silver doping |
| Individual Plant design | Hardly possible. | Optional for dealers | Further unique selling points for sales |
| Deployed Osmosis membranes | Conventional technology with Osmosis/wastewater ratio approx. 1:4 | New SideStream technology with Osmosis/wastewater ratio approx. 1:1 | water saving |
| Type of water | It can only be osmosis water taken will | With a switch can also activated carbon sterile filtered water be removed. | Two different types of water expand this Range of use of the system. |
| Disinfection | Often defective solutions | effective Disinfection strategy | ClO2 capsules for an extended Hygiene assurance (topic of endotoxins, etc.) |
