A Quick Introduction to Copper Silver Ionisation For Hospitality Businesses

For those who work in the hospitality business, it can seem that the entire time you are managing the hotel whether it’s for the morning or the evening shift you are trying to reverse issues that your guests may have with their stay.

One of the last things you will want to have to manage is issues with the water or, even worse, calling in a plumbing team to fix a leak caused by pipe corrosion on the upper floor of your hotel.

Luckily, there are ways that hospitality businesses can keep even the oldest pipework running smoothly without the use of chemicals and that is by using copper silver ionisation to clean the water. 

What are the benefits of doing this? Read on to find out!

Control of Legionella and Other Pathogens

As a starting point, you want all the water coming through your showers or through your taps to be clean.

Copper silver ionisation is effective in controlling an array of bacteria but legionella bacteria, which is responsible for Legionnaires disease, is a bacterium that can quickly grow out of control. Legionnaires disease is a serious respiratory illness that hotels and resorts are very vulnerable to due to the often-complex water systems. By using copper silver ionization, you can prevent Legionnaires disease and meet the standards that your country will have in place regarding water safety, thereby avoiding fines and reputational damage.

Non-Corrosive 

Remember in the intro, a leak was mentioned due to corroded pipes? That is common in older buildings but it is more to do with chemical treatments, which clean the water system, eroding the pipes. Copper silver ionization does not corrode pipes and it reduces the costs of maintenance and repairs to the hotel or resort. Also, this process for water cleaning does not create harmful byproducts, so your guests can use it for whatever they want without hassle. 

Cost-Effective Solution

It is true that the initial setup for copper silver ionization filtration can be higher than other water cleaning methods. However, it tends to be more cost-effective over time, as it requires less ongoing maintenance and reduces the need for frequent chemical purchases and cleans. It is also more energy efficient, as it uses minimal electricity to maintain water safety, which can contribute to energy savings for the facility.

Eco-Friendly

If you are looking for a way to appeal to more modern guests, you can talk about how your copper silver ionization treatment for your hotel or resort’s water is more environmentally friendly. Many hospitality businesses are adopting green practices to reduce their environmental footprint and this will align with popular sustainability goals, as it minimizes chemical use and promotes safer, cleaner water without the use of chemicals or excessive power.

Enhanced Guest Experience

Lastly, hotel guests will expect a high level of safety and comfort during their stay. Knowing that your hotel uses advanced and effective methods for water safety will enhance their confidence and satisfaction in their stay with your team. Remember, if you have a spa, a pool or a wellness center attached to your hotel or resort, the water quality is going to be directly linked to your guests’ experience. These positive guest experiences can also enhance the hotel or resort’s reputation and will ensure that you get more guests attending in the future.
