pH Correction Water Treatment
Our pH correction systems are suitable for domestic, agricultural and commercial properties across Yorkshire and the North of England.
pH Correction
Balancing Your Water Quality
Acidic water can cause serious damage to plumbing, fittings and appliances over time. If your private water supply has a low pH, Springhill can design and install a pH correction system that protects your property while maintaining the natural taste and beneficial minerals in your water.

Why Correct pH?
Why Install a pH Correction System?
Water with a pH below 7 is acidic and can gradually corrode copper pipework, fittings and water heating equipment. This can lead to:
- Corrosion of plumbing
- Blue or green staining
- Copper leaching into the water
- Reduced lifespan of appliances
- Increased maintenance costs
A pH correction system gently raises the pH by adding small amounts of naturally occurring calcium and magnesium, helping to protect your plumbing without affecting the water's natural taste.

Customer Testimonial
"Springhill have turned a poor quality water supply into one which is not only fit to drink but also prevents damage to the internal pipework. It has gone from being brown and acid to being crystal clear and the acidity has gone. Springhill did everything right, they even came out on a Sunday when we thought we had a problem."

FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
What is pH correction?
pH correction is the process of raising the pH of acidic water to reduce its corrosive effects on plumbing, fittings and appliances.
How do I know if my water is too acidic?
Signs of acidic water include blue or green staining, corrosion of copper pipework, metallic tastes and premature failure of plumbing fixtures. A water test will confirm whether pH correction is required.
How does a pH correction system work?
Most systems use calcite media, which slowly dissolves into the water to increase alkalinity and reduce acidity. The correct solution depends on your water chemistry and site conditions.
Can pH correction be combined with other treatment?
Yes. pH correction is commonly installed alongside UV disinfection, iron filtration and other treatment systems to provide complete protection for your water supply.
Do pH correction systems require maintenance?
Yes. Most systems require periodic topping up or replacement of the correction media, together with routine servicing to ensure they continue operating effectively.
Do I need a water test first?
Yes. We strongly recommend starting with a professional water test so we can accurately assess your water chemistry and recommend the most appropriate treatment system.
Do you install and service pH correction systems?
Yes. We provide complete installation, servicing and ongoing maintenance for domestic and commercial pH correction systems throughout Yorkshire and the North of England.
