What is side stream filtration?

With regular filtration in a closed loop, every millilitre of water passes through some form of filter, again and again as it flows around. While that’s a thorough way of doing it, it can be overkill, because it necessarily slows down the flow – especially as the filter gets clogged over time.

Side stream filtration uses a branch off the main flow, where the filtration happens. Most of the flow carries on, but a small amount passes through the filtration, then returns to the main flow straight away. Because it’s a continuous loop, any small fragments of contaminant will be caught sooner or later.

What are the benefits of side stream filtration?

Side stream filtration has two main benefits.

First, the flow of the water around the system is largely unaffected. There’s nothing hindering the flow, except perhaps a small amount of turbulence around the junction. That’s great where strong, continuous or fast flow is needed.

Second, the filter can be cleaned, serviced or upgraded without having to stop the main flow, which is ideal when 24/7 flow is required.

Able Customer Reviews

Ian Farmer – We are extremely pleased with our cloakroom and bathroom renovation carried out by Alex.
Alex was reliable, turned up when expected every day over the four weeks, communicated with us when any decisions on the changes were required and was always thoughtful about our situations for continuing to live in the house during the work.
This installation was carried out with great care and skill. There was little mess but when needed, it was cleaned up effectively and taken away when required.
We are extremely pleased with the end result and we would highly recommend Alex for his work

Just had Matt and Ollie around to service the boiler. Both very polite, friendly and professional. They were thorough and went above and beyond, helping explain what they were doing and abowed me how to use the timer etc. Thank you.

Our new heating system stopped working and after a call to Able Plumbing, Louise arranged a same day visit from Ben. Ben checked the new boiler and system and found a valve had stopped working, needing replacement. Thankfully, Ben had a new valve in his van and was able to sort the problem out quickly. Once again, excellent service from Louise and Ben in fixing the fault and preventing a long cold weekend. Another thumbs up for Able Plumbing and thanks again.
