Houno and BWT water systems work together to find a solution to the UK's limescale problem. BWT (Best Water Technology) are a world wide manufacturer and distributor of water softeners and filtration systems and have been since 1990. They develop environmentally friendly and economic water treatment products and services.Houno have been working with and trialling BWT's water filtration products and will soon be ready to offer a suitable solution to water filtration in the UK. Water filtration is essential for a number of reasons, mainly to reduce limescale but it also has other benefits which may not seem completely obvious. Unfiltered water in your oven can taint the taste of your cooking, corrode and block water vessels and in some cases eat through metals if the water is over softened.

As part of Houno's commitment to manufacture world class ovens, the need for the correct water filtration is essential to backup the longevity and durability of their ovens. The water filter will be part of Houno's 4 year warranty, the water softener must be changed at timed intervals for any warranty to be honoured. Any oven which has a poorly maintained filtration solution or fitted with a filter not recognised by Houno could have the warranty voided. The water filter check and water test will be part of the yearly service that must be carried out by an authorised agent each year whilst the oven's under warranty.

As Houno are still in the trial stages, it is rumoured that June this year could see the rollout of BWT's filtration systems in the UK. When a decision has been made, replacement water filtration cartridges will be available to purchase from OTS on a next day service. There may be more than one type of cartridge available depending on the hardness of your water, all available types of filter cartridge will be displayed on the OTS website soon.

If you currently have a BWT water filter system fitted to your Houno oven and need replacement filters, contact us today and we will be happy to help.
