Think of purified water as water that’s gone through a special cleaning process – but much more thorough than just a simple filter. At Riverwalk Water, we take ordinary water and transform it into exceptionally clean drinking water by removing the things you don’t want while keeping the good stuff.

Our purification system removes:

• Chlorine (that swimming pool smell and taste in tap water)
  
• Bacteria and other microscopic organisms
  
• Chemicals and pollutants
  
• Particles and sediment that cause cloudiness

Unlike tap water, which can vary in quality depending on your location or municipal treatment, purified water gives you consistent quality every time. Our process ensures that what comes out of your bottle meets strict South African SANS 241 safety standards – the same regulations that govern all drinking water in the country.

What makes purified water special is that it’s clean and safe while still maintaining a pleasant, refreshing taste. It’s perfect for drinking, cooking, making coffee or tea, and anywhere else you use water in your home.

This is a bit like asking whether a sedan is better than a truck – they’re both vehicles but designed for different purposes!

Purified water (what we provide at Riverwalk) goes through multiple filtration methods that remove contaminants while keeping beneficial minerals. This gives you water that’s:

• Clean and safe with 99% of unwanted substances removed
  
• Pleasant-tasting with natural minerals that give water its refreshing quality
  
• Perfect for everyday drinking and cooking
  
• Well-balanced for proper hydration

Distilled water takes a different approach. It’s made by boiling water and collecting the steam, leaving behind virtually everything – both good and bad. This creates water that’s:

• Extremely pure (almost 100% H₂O)
  
• Completely mineral-free
  
• Often described as having a flat or bland taste
  
• Primarily used for medical equipment, car batteries, and certain manufacturing processes

For your daily drinking needs, purified water is typically the better choice. It offers the perfect balance of safety and taste, providing clean water that’s actually enjoyable to drink. The minerals in purified water contribute to its refreshing flavour and may offer small nutritional benefits too.

At Riverwalk, we focus on purification methods that deliver the ideal balance for your everyday hydration needs – water that’s exceptionally clean and tastes great.

At Riverwalk Water, we transform ordinary water into the pure, refreshing water you enjoy through a series of careful steps – think of it as a spa treatment for your water!

Step 1: Initial Screening

We start by removing the obvious stuff – larger particles and debris. This is like the bouncer at the club door, keeping out anything that clearly doesn’t belong.

Step 2: Multi-Layer Filtration

Next, your water passes through our advanced filtration system with specialised layers:

• First, we remove the cloudiness and suspended particles
  
• Then, special carbon filters eliminate chlorine, unpleasant tastes, and odours (goodbye, tap water taste!)
  
• Finally, micro-filters catch tiny impurities that are too small to see

Step 3: Advanced Purification

This is where the magic really happens:

• Our reverse osmosis technology acts like an incredibly fine strainer, removing dissolved contaminants, including heavy metals and chemicals
  
• UV light treatment provides a final safety step, neutralising any remaining microorganisms without adding chemicals

Step 4: Quality Testing

Before it reaches your bottle, we test every batch to make sure it meets or exceeds South Africa’s strict SANS 241 standards. We check for:

• Safety from harmful microorganisms
  
• Proper chemical balance
  
• Clarity and appearance
  
• Great taste and no odour

Only water that passes every test makes it to you. This careful process ensures that every sip of Riverwalk Water is clean, safe, and delicious – giving you complete peace of mind about the water you and your family drink every day.

Better Taste, Better Experience

The most immediate benefit you’ll notice is the improved taste. Our purification process removes chlorine and other substances that give tap water its distinctive flavour and smell. This means:

• Your morning coffee or tea tastes noticeably better
  
• Ice cubes are clearer and don’t affect the taste of your drinks
  
• Food cooked with purified water allows natural flavours to shine through

With Riverwalk purified water, you know exactly what you’re getting – and more importantly, what you’re not getting:

• No worries about chlorine and chlorination byproducts
  
• Protection from potential contaminants in ageing water pipes
  
• Consistent quality regardless of municipal water issues
  
• Water that meets strict safety standards with every drop

Supporting Your Health and Well-being

• Helps your kidneys function efficiently
  
• Supports healthy digestion
  
• Contributes to clearer, healthier-looking skin

Practical Benefits Around Your Home
