NEWS 10/21PRODUCT 5 3 1 1. Blanco’s new smarts
BLANCO’s range of smart drinking water systems now includes the BLANCO
drink.filter FONTAS-S II tap. An integrated BWT multi-stage filter purifies the water, reduces limescale and heavy metal content and, thus, enhances the taste. BLANCO filter systems provide three options - warm, cold and filtered cold water - in this multi-functional tap. The
drink.filter FONTAS-S II has a distinctive pull-out spout which allows flexible use around the sink, making it easy to fill household appliances. It has separate nozzles and two pipes within the spout - keeping the filtered water perfectly pure. There are two separate control levers; one for cold and warm water on the right-hand side, while the control lever for filtered water is on the left-hand side. In addition, the high filtering capacity extends the usage intervals while the filter cartridges do not have to be changed as often. The BLANCO Flowmeter is built into the water pipe for the filter and measures precisely how much water is actually flowing through the filter. Depending on the hardness of the water, the Flowmeter will show the filter’s remaining capacity. If the filter needs to be changed, a signal will sound in good time.

2. Brett Martin stirs up a storm Brett Martin’s StormCrate55 has been used for the Blue Group site at the New Cheshire Business Park to manage surface water on the site during periods of heavy rainfall. The Sustainable Drainage System was used to create a 325cu m storage tank below a parking area, featuring an attenuation tank and underground storm drainage pipe layout to suit both the site landscaping and tank storage requirements and allowing stormwater to be managed on an area where staff cars and light goods vehicles are to be parked. As each crate weighs only 15.5kg they were easy to lift by hand and simple to connect together using connectors and shear pins in a brick bond pattern and at three layers deep in parts. StormCrate55 can be wrapped in a permeable geotextile material to create an infiltration system which allows stored water to slowly seep into the surrounding ground and back into the water table over a period of time.
