AQA TOTAL ENERGY
3-phase protection for your drinking water
www.bwt-group.com
Water is the foundation of our life and our health. Our body needs water every day, for nearly
­everything we do. The sensitive water metabolism of our body must always be kept in balance.
This is why healthy adults should drink at least 2 litres of water a day.
Quality drinking water for the whole family
Minerals – good for you, bad for your pipe installations
Drinking water is good for us and the dissolved trace elements and minerals that it contains help us in particular to remain
healthy.
So what could be more important to us than having healthy, mineral rich drinking water flowing directly from the tap?
However, it is precisely these minerals (especially calcium and magnesium) that are the main cause for limescale in pipes,
domestic appliances and on fittings. These kinds of deposits are annoying, unattractive and can have costly consequences.
Do something good for your family and protect them with quality drinking water. By installing AQA total Energy, you optimally protect your pipelines and boiler with the 3-phase protection against limescale and corrosion. This means that all mineral substances remain in the water and you can enjoy your quality drinking water fresh from clean pipes.

me and corrosion for your drinking water installation
Protect yourself and your home
Wherever water flows, drips or stands, you will find limescale forming. This is due to the dissolved calcium and magnesium
ions in the water which are responsible for water hardness. Consequently it can lead to calcified pipe installations, boilers
and shower heads.
Heating costs are also increased by calcified heating surfaces: a 1 mm thick limescale layer on a heat exchanger increases
energy consumption by 10 %. Aggressive water also attacks pipes and fittings as the natural corrosion inhibitors are missing. Pipes corrode: this is easy to recognise by the rusty brown discolouration of the water. Corrosion can even lead to burst
pipes. Furthermore, calcified and rusted water pipes are the ideal breeding ground for a huge variety of bacteria!
AQA total Energy with its 3-phase protection reliably protects against limescale and corrosion.
AQA total Energy – quality drinking water from clean
A natural source of minerals in your home
Our drinking water contains solute trace elements and minerals such as magnesium - an important mineral substance for our
bodies. It helps in energy metabolism and bone formation and gives us energy for everyday life. With AQA total Energy, all
mineral substances remain in the water and you automatically consume these precious mineral substances with your drinking
water - day by day, with just a sip of water. Drink from a vitalising source for an extra something towards your health and
fitness.
Improve what you drink and your sense of wellbeing by taking conscious pleasure in drinking water - with AQA total Energy
you can make your tap into a bubbling source of energy with quality drinking water.

AQA total Energy – three-way goodness
AQA total Energy offers optimum lime and corrosion protection for your drinking water
installations and for quality water rich in vital substances for you.

ptimum protection against
limescale
Optimum protection against limescale
Thanks to its revolutionary bipolar technology, nano-crystals form which stabilise the
solute lime in the water. This means the lime cannot lay down limescale deposits in
pipes, installations or boilers.
• Efficient corrosion protection
Efficient corrosion protection
In addition to this, an effective protective coating is formed against corrosion in metal
pipes.
Drinking water rich in vital substances
AQA total Energy retains all mineral substances in the drinking water – such as
essential magnesium.
This means you get naturally good drinking water that protects your installations
against limescale and corrosion.
• D
rinking water rich in vital
­substances
Revolutionary technology – just good water
The heart of AQA total Energy is the unique bipolar technology: Tiny lime crystals form
as a result of precisely aligned current and voltage impulses. These nano-crystals stabilise the solute lime in the water. This keeps the lime (and all the other minerals) in the
water, so it doesn't form deposits in pipes or boilers. An additional function of AQA total
Energy is that a fine, protective anti-corrosion coating forms in the pipes. The new microprocessor controlled electronics ensure optimum availability of information and userfriendliness. AQA total Energy is fully automated and only the effective unit has to be
changed every three years - depending on the rate of water consumption.
Perfect hygiene due to the new refill system
To ensure active hygiene and reliability, a hygiene cartridge is exchanged every three
years - easy and simple to do with the new refill system.
AQA total Energy – perfection in lime and
corrosion protection
Customised drinking water systems
AQA total Energy is available in various power levels in order to guarantee perfect water quality to suit each household.

Milestones in modern water technology
The Best Water Technology (BWT) Group is Europe’s leading
water technology company. Our Group comprises 2,354 employees who work within 76 subsidiaries and associates. Our
collective goal is to provide private, business, industrial and
municipality customers with innovative, cost effective and ecological technologies that deliver maximum safety, hygiene and
health in their daily contact with our elixir of life - water.
BWT delivers complete water treatment solutions and services
for drinking water, process water, heating water, boiler water,
cooling water, as well as water for airconditioning systems and
swimming pools. And through our market leading expertise
across all areas of water treatment, we are continually developing and optimising new processes in the BWT R&D centres for
filtration, limescale protection, softening, dosing, disinfection
(UV, ozone, chlorine dioxide etc), membrane technology
(microfiltration, ultrafiltration, nanofiltration and reverse osmosis) and hygiene management (the prevention of legionella).
This technological expertise has been proved in millions of
households in our traditional business Point of Entry (PoE), i.e.
water treatment at the entry of the house water pipe. In addition, we provide end consumers with the Point of Use field (PoU),
where water is tapped in the form of table water filters for tea
and coffee making, decarbonisation for coffee machines, water
filters for ovens, steam ovens and vending machines, under-thesink particle filters, water coolers as well as classic
activated carbon filters, reverse osmosis and UV-devices.
Both the growth of the company and the excellent reputation of
the market leading regional brands BWT, HOH, Permo and
Christ Aqua are being strengthened by innovative power and
continual product development in many different areas.
And our future oriented approach is illustrated by the Fuel Cell
Membrane Technologies (FCMT) segment, which develops highperformance membranes for the fuel cell industry, the energy
converter of the 21st century. Fuel cells are now a high potential
technological alternative following cost reduction and efficiency
improvement being achieved, combined with sharp rises in energy costs in recent years.
Our mission at BWT- The Water Company – is very clear. Our
efforts are focussed on providing our customers and partners
with the best products, plants, technologies and services for all
areas of water treatment. The elixir of life that is water, the rising world population and the growing requirements for drinking water, optimal process water, as well as water recycling,
represent opportunities that we intend to meet. And through
further strengthening our strong European market position, we
are continually working towards achieving our vision:
