Most tap water in the UAE is desalinated seawater. It travels a long way before it reaches the consumer. During transport and storage, a so-called biofilm forms in pipes and tanks. This biofilm is where legionella bacteria can thrive. The treatment system of Holland Water is energy efficient and has been installed in various places in the UAE. It ensures clean and safe drinking water.
