Are you experiencing unpleasant odours in your water despite having a water filter installed at home? Especially in the morning, when you are craving a refreshing glass of water to start your day, that unpleasant odour can be a real letdown. It can ruin your mood and affect your entire day.
Morning Water Odour Ruins Your Mood
When you wake up groggy in the morning, all you want is a crisp, clean glass of water to kickstart your day. But if the water has an unpleasant odour, it can instantly spoil your morning and leave you frustrated, making you wonder how the rest of your day will unfold.
 
Off-Tasting Water Affects the Flavour of Your Food
Filtered water isn’t just for drinking, it’s an essential ingredient for daily cooking. If your water has an odour, it can negatively impact the flavour of your meals. Even the freshest ingredients and your best cooking skills can’t mask the off-taste that seeps into your food. You may question whether the ingredients are at fault.
 
Serving Tea with an Odour to Guests is Embarrassing
When entertaining guests, you want to welcome them with a pot of good tea. But if the tea has an unpleasant taste, it can be quite embarrassing. You might feel more uncomfortable than your guests, which can detract from the enjoyment of their visit. 
To avoid these issues, installing the right water filter is the best solution. However, if you still experience taste problems after installation, consider the following:
 
Is the Filter Expired or Clogged?
Filter is key to removing impurities and odours from your water. Over time, filters can become clogged or reach the end of their lifespan, reducing their effectiveness. Regular replacement of the filter regularly is essential for maintaining fresh water quality.
 
Is the Water Filter’s Filtration Capacity Sufficient?
Water quality varies by region. Studies in Malaysia have revealed a startling fact: drinking untreated water could mean ingesting up to 60 harmful substances in your body. If your water filter’s capacity isn’t sufficient, it will not be able to remove these contaminants effectively, leaving unpleasant tastes in your water is likely to happen.
To address the water quality issues in Malaysia, choosing a water filter designed specifically to tackle local contaminants is essential, such as NESH water filtration systems. These systems are engineered to effectively remove pollutants, ensuring you enjoy clean, fresh drinking water. 
While water filters are crucial for improving your quality of life, their effectiveness lies on proper maintenance and suitability for local conditions. Persistent off-tastes can affect your daily life and health. By regularly replacing the filters and choosing a water filter that suits your area’s water quality, you can easily solve these issues and enjoy every sip of refreshing, clean water, setting a positive tone for your day!

NESH Patented 400 Output Holes Membrane Design

More than 30 years, NESH has been focusing on continuous improvement in the water filtration system and technology to make sure we continue to deliver quality, clean and healthy water for households.

Through scientific research and development, NESH has improved and developed our membrane from the first generation in year 2004 to the patented third generation membrane launched in year 2018. It is the first and only membrane in the market with 400 output holes that grants faster and smoother water flow without affecting the water pressure of the house. So that you can use water happily with peace of mind at home.

The High Precision Ultra-Filtration Membrane

The high precision ultra-filtration membrane is made of hollow fibre with the size of 0.01 micron. This advanced technology is able to block any residues or micro-organisms that are bigger than 0.01 micron in size.

Impurities in the tap water are effectively blocked at the main water supply pipe before water entering the house. It removes bacteria, metal rust, heavy metal, mud and other residues derived from the recontamination of tap water during its journey through the water supply pipes before reaching our house water taps.

Membrane

The function of membrane simulates our human body cells. Each individual membrane is high in density, therefore it is able to absorb, purify, separate and filter. Various industries like brewery, distillery, and textile have applied this technology in their production. Today, this matured membrane technology has been introduced into our household and further developed into highly effective outdoor filtration system.

O.O1 Micron

The size of each membrane hollow fibre is 0.01 micron, which is 10,000 times thinner than a human hair. It can filter out anything that is bigger than 0.01 micron such as hepatitis A virus or calicivirus that is 0.025 micron in size. It can handle dirty water which is 100 times dirtier than average tap water.

It was proven through a series of SIRIM tests that the revolutionary NESH membrane is able to filter out 99.99% of residues like mud, sand, metal rust, heavy metal, hair and etc. The performance of this amazing technology is not achievable by conventional water filtration systems.

What is Activated Oxygen Water?

Activated Oxygen Water is the potent result of supercharging the Activated Oxygen (O3) or Ozone within water. By doing so, our filters produce water that has the unique capacity to remove dirt, bacteria and germs from almost any surface – 99.95% lab test proven. It also sterilises 3,000 times faster than chlorine.

  • Healthier lunches, dinners and longer food shelf life
  • Clean pets, sterilised household areas
  • Remove odours, reduce your detergent use and save money

3 Main Functions of Ozone

  1. Purifies

Instantaneously removes agricultural chemicals, making food safer for consumption.

  1. Sterilises

Sterilises kitchenware and baby products. No liquid detergent or soap required when cleaning hands.

  1. Deodorises

Removes unpleasant smelling odour from your food and utensils. Prevents halitosis or bad-breath.

What is Activated Oxygen (O3)?

‘Ozone is the most natural and powerful disinfectant known to man.’

What is Activated oxygen?

Activated oxygen is most commonly known as Ozone or O3. Ozone is the planet’s strongest oxidiser and disinfectant readily available for household and commercial use. It is 3,000 times faster-acting and more effective than chlorine in killing bacteria and viruses and leaves behind no residues, off flavours or tastes.

Activated oxygen or ozone is created when lighting strikes oxygen molecules (O2) in the atmosphere, splitting them into single oxygen atom (O) that then combines with unbroken O2 to create O3 or ozone that has a brief lifespan. The extra atom of oxygen becomes a scavenger, destroying pollutants, bacteria, viruses and odours. Colourless and non-toxic, this tri-atomic molecule is a powerful oxidation and decomposition agent that enables sterilisation and deodorisation when combined with other chemical properties.

Application of Activated Oxygen (Ozone) Today

Ozone has been used in many water treatment applications for over 100 years.

Today, ozone technology is widely used as an extremely strong oxidising and disinfecting agent, as well as a catalyst, in various industries, such as water treatment, health care, chemicals and food and beverage.

Penetrating into different areas, the application of ozone in our daily lives is a significant technological development. Set up in Canada in 1973, the International Ozone Association (IOA) holds an international conference every two years to confer the latest in ozonation development and technology.

Among the popular ozonation technologies in use today are the free-radical, ultraviolet (UV), plasma and electrical discharge method. NESH Qoozo is using one of the most popular ozone generating technology: electronic discharge method to produce Activated Oxygen (Ozone) for household use.

Main Areas of Ozone Application Today

‘Ozone is proven to be 3000 times faster than chlorine in eliminating bacteria.’

  1. Facial Cleansing Machines- Ozone destroys bacteria, hence it is extremely effective for detoxifying skin and combating skin problems with no painful side effects.
  2. Swimming Pool- Because of its strong oxidation and disinfection mechanism, ozone is used in swimming pools to replace chlorine and bromine containing disinfection chemicals. Olympic pools must use ozone for disinfection and oxidation.
  3. Bottled Water- Ozone is a common technology for sanitising water before the filling process, and it is USDA requirement for every bottled water be dosed with ozone as a part of the filling process.
  4. Dentistry– Ozone widely used in dental treatments as it has shown promise in helping disinfect areas of chronic gum infection.
  5. Wineries and Breweries- Ozone is used to disinfect barrels tanks and other equipments.
