Why treat your water in Kuwait?

Almost all of Kuwait's fresh water is made from seawater in coastal distillation plants, then blended before it is piped to homes. That process works, but it shapes the water you get.

01 · Made from the sea

Distilled, then blended

In 2016 Kuwait produced 158.1 billion imperial gallons of fresh water, and 156 billion of it came from desalination, according to the Ministry of Electricity and Water. Plants such as Shuwaikh, Shuaiba, Doha, Az-Zour and Sabiya add a small share of brackish groundwater to give the distilled water some minerals.

02 · What the pipes add

From the network to your glass

Pure distilled water is corrosive, which is one reason it is blended. A 2015 study of 43 household taps found chloride above 200 mg/l in 18.6% of samples, plus some metals that may come from home plumbing. Building tanks and older pipework affect the taste too.

03 · Bottled habits

Treat your own water instead

Many Kuwaiti households and offices rely on bottled water for drinking. Filtering at the tap gives water of the same standard on demand, without the deliveries, the storage or the plastic.

How treatment works

A system in five steps.

No single filter does everything. This is a typical arrangement for a Kuwaiti café or restaurant, with each stage doing one task before the next.

  1. 01

    Pre-filter

    Sediment stage

    Removes sand, scale and rust particles from tanks and pipes, down to about 5 microns, to protect everything after it.

  2. 02

    Activated carbon

    Odour & chlorine

    Takes away chlorine and the stale smell that tank storage can leave, and guards the membrane that follows.

  3. 03

    Softener

    Scale control

    Used where testing shows scale is a risk, removing calcium and magnesium before water reaches boilers and coffee machines.

  4. 04

    Reverse osmosis

    Fine purification

    A tight membrane holds back up to 99% of dissolved solids, including excess chloride, giving a clean, even base for drinks.

  5. 05

    Remineralisation

    Minerals for taste

    Puts a controlled amount of calcium and magnesium back for flavour, balanced pH and good espresso.

Your questions

Water treatment in Kuwait, explained.

The questions Kuwaiti homes and businesses ask us most often.

QWhere does Kuwait's tap water come from?
Almost all of it is seawater distilled at coastal plants and blended with a little brackish groundwater. The Ministry of Electricity and Water produces and distributes it.
QWhy filter water that is already treated?
The water leaves the plant to standard, but it then travels through the network, building tanks and home plumbing. Filtration at the tap deals with what is picked up on the way.
QDoes reverse osmosis remove chloride?
Yes. An RO membrane removes most dissolved salts, including chloride, which one study of Kuwaiti taps found above 200 mg/l in nearly a fifth of samples.
QDo I need a softener in Kuwait?
Not always. We check your supply and equipment first. A softener earns its place where scale is building up on heaters or coffee machines.
QCan our office stop ordering bottled water?
Yes. Mains-fed taps and dispensers with built-in filtration give boiling, chilled, sparkling and still water on demand.
QHow often are filters replaced?
Typically every 6 to 12 months, depending on use. With Comprehensive Maintenance we track filter life and replace them on time.
QAre your products British?
Our systems are engineered in Britain and made in Europe to UK and EU water standards.
QCan you support more than one site?
Yes. Businesses with several Kuwait locations get one standard specification, central monitoring and planned servicing for each site.
