How to Treat Shipboard

Potable Water:

Suspiciously.

Why? Because the stakes are high. Should bacterial contamina- tion set in, the health of all on board could be jeopardized overnight.

CLOR-D-CLOR- Water Treatment Systems treat water the way it must be treated. Effectively. And reliably. With thorough disinfection using superchlorination and dechlorination, a method recognized and suggested by the EPA for small water systems.

For over 30 years Everpure CLOR-D-CLOR Systems have effectively treated potable water supplies for maritime indus- tries. They provide clear, good-tasting, bacteriolog- ically safe water with a minimum of maintenance.

System components include an EVERCLOR® Ma- rine Duty Chemical Feeder and appropriate models of RT pre-coat water filters. All components are adaptable to meet most marine and offshore appli- cations. For detailed information, call or write:
