Bacteria in Swiss water

Safety starts with clean water - protect yourself from bacteria with Evodrop

Water is an irreplaceable element of our daily lives, which we use for drinking, cooking and hygiene. However, although it is essential to life, water can also be a carrier of pathogens if it becomes contaminated with harmful bacteria. Such contamination can occur anywhere, from private wells to municipal water pipes, and poses a serious health risk.

Evodrop is dedicated to ensuring the safety of your drinking water. Our state-of-the-art technologies are specifically designed to efficiently remove any viruses and bacteria. This not only protects the health of your family, but also ensures that you can rely on the quality and safety of your water.

Discover how our patented filtration systems specifically filter out bacteria and other microorganisms and provide you with pure, clean water. With Evodrop, you choose a partner that uses advanced science and innovative technologies to keep your water safe and free from bacteria.

Definition and challenges: Bacteria in drinking water

Bacteria are microscopic, single-celled organisms that exist in almost every environment on earth, from the depths of the oceans to the tops of mountains, and of course in our water. While many types of bacteria are harmless or even beneficial to the environment and the human body, there are certain types that can be harmful to health.

Pathogenic bacteria, such as Legionella, E. coli and Salmonella, can be found in water pipes, on poorly maintained filtration systems or in natural water sources. These bacteria are particularly dangerous because they can cause serious illnesses such as Legionnaires' disease, gastrointestinal disorders and other serious infections.

How do bacteria actually get into our water?

• Natural sources: Surface water from lakes, rivers or reservoirs used for drinking water often contains bacteria from the environment, such as rainwater carrying organic material, animal droppings or soil particles.
• Contaminated groundwater: Groundwater can also contain bacteria, especially if it is close to agricultural land or leaking sewers through which pollutants can seep into the water.
• Problems with water treatment: Errors or failures in the water treatment process, such as insufficient chlorination or disinfection, can lead to bacteria not being sufficiently removed or killed.
• Pipes and infrastructure: Outdated or damaged water pipes, cracks in pipe systems or unclean tanks can serve as a breeding ground for bacteria or introduce bacteria into drinking water.
• Biofilm formation: Biofilm, a layer of slime in which bacteria live, can form in pipes over time. When this biofilm dissolves, the bacteria enter the drinking water.

The waterworks itself is usually well monitored, but errors or incidents in the distribution network can lead to bacterial contamination. Regular maintenance and thorough disinfection are crucial to avoid such problems.

As chlorine is rarely used in Switzerland, the water has to be boiled at home from time to time in the relevant communities.

Access to clean water

Access to clean water can be compromised by a variety of factors, including poor infrastructure, pollution and inadequate water treatment processes. In areas where water is stagnant or old pipes and systems are used, bacteria can thrive and multiply, increasing the risk to consumers' health.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ)

When do bacteria in the water die?

Bacteria die when exposed to temperatures outside their survival range, chemical disinfection or UV light. Evodrop systems use advanced filtration techniques that remove bacteria without resorting to harmful chemicals or energizing the water.

Which water filter filters bacteria?

Evodrop water filters are specially designed to efficiently filter a wide range of bacteria, including Legionella, from the water. Our filters use a combination of mechanical and biological filtration methods to ensure that the water you use is free from bacteria.
