    Maintain water pH level

    Hi dalcazar & bimr, thanks for the info above. The pipe size is about 300-350 mm lines. How often do you think we have to sanitize it? Will there be any treatment process we can do for the newly treated water before it steps in the distribution system considering that we have a regular washing...
