When should I replace my boat water filter?

The rule of thumb is to check your filter elements regularly. If you filter dirty water often, the filters are more likely to clog up than, say, if you only filter rainwater. If you want to use water from a river or lake to filter, and is this water very turbid, then again you are more likely to need new boat water filters.

Preventing Legionella Contamination

To minimize the risk of Legionella contamination, it is important to perform regular maintenance on the boat water system. This includes cleaning and disinfecting the water tank, flushing the pipes, and ensuring proper water temperature and flow. It is also advisable to use clean drinking water and ensure that the water tank is properly sealed to prevent external contamination.

Additionally, the use of AQUA Logic Drinking Water Filters is highly recommended. These filters can help remove potentially harmful bacteria, including Legionella, as well as other contaminants and improve water quality. By installing a reliable filter system like AQUA Logic, you can provide additional protection against Legionella contamination and enjoy safe and clean drinking water during your journeys.

The occurrence and contamination of Legionella in a water tank in a camper can depend on various factors. Some important factors include:

Temperature: Legionella bacteria thrive at temperatures between 25°C and 45°C. If the water in the tank remains within this temperature range for an extended period, it can promote bacterial growth.

Stagnation: Stagnant water in the water tank can promote the growth of Legionella. If the water in the tank is not used or refreshed for an extended period, it can lead to stagnation and create an ideal environment for bacterial growth.

Contamination: Poor cleaning of the camper's water tank or the use of low-quality refill water can increase the risk of Legionella contamination. Contaminants such as organic matter, sediment, or other bacteria can serve as a food source for Legionella.

Maintenance: Inadequate maintenance of the water tank and the camper's water system can contribute to the occurrence and spread of Legionella. Regular cleaning, disinfection, and flushing of the water tank and pipes can help prevent bacterial growth.

Chemical composition: The presence of certain chemicals, such as oxidants or corrosive substances, can influence the growth of Legionella. Some chemicals can kill or inhibit the bacteria, while others can stimulate their growth.
