Water for Ovens
Steam at its best: the right water for superior performance and reduced maintenance.
Not all water is the same
The use of unfiltered water not only affects
the food you prepare, but can also damage
your oven and steam generator over time.
Water with high carbonate hardness can lead
to limescale deposits, while high permanent
hardness can cause chalk deposits.
Untreated water
Untreated water contains high levels of sediments and can potentially damage or
obstruct the machine.
Hard water
Hard water contains high levels of calcium
and magnesium.
Soft water
Soft water contains only small amounts of
calcium, magnesium and carbonates.
Improve the taste
Every element dissolved in the water
transfers its own particular characteristic, soft, bitter, salty, and so forth.
Finding the right blend of these substances creates the perfect recipe for obtaining
the best possible product, enhancing the aromas and giving your drinks
an attractive appearance. Water is, after all, the main ingredient of any food.

Treatment is worth it
Mineral deposits, caused by the hardness of the water, tend to cause
malfunctions in ovens and steam generators. Maintenance times increase
and so do management costs, in the long run, the damage caused becomes
absolutely relevant. Untreated water also leaves residue on glasses
and cutlery, giving an opaque look, and the impression that they are
dirty.
3 reasons to choose a treatment
Improves flavour
Avoid blockages
in pipes
Protects from encrustations.
Water treatment methods
Water treatment takes place mainly in three ways.
Water softener
The result one obtains through the use of the water softener is the elimination
of the calcium Ca2+ and magnesium Mg2+ ions, which are responsible for the
hardness of the water. In this way, one effectively prevents the formation of
limescale that over time reduces the performance of the machines
and causes their breakdown.
Decarbonisation
The decarbonisation filters eliminate the carbonates of calcium (CaCO3) and
magnesium (MgCO3). Use of these filters allows a three-fold result: protection
of the machine, full and rich-tasting food and drinks, and sparkling dishes.
Reverse osmosis
Thanks to the very high degree of filtration that characterises reverse osmosis
machines, it is possible to obtain water with very high quality characteristics.
As the water passes through one or more membranes, it is purified not only of
the elements determining its hardness, but also of all the contaminating substances
causing unpleasant odours and tastes, for example.
Products for Ovens
The catering industry is becoming increasingly more competitive, and
customers increasingly more demanding and informed, so in order to
emerge, all factors must be of the highest standard. Water is certainly
one of these, perhaps even among the most important, since it is used in
every stage of the process,
from cleaning to cooking, and the preparation of the food itself. Profine®
can help you transform water into your winning ingredient!
