Galway Water Solutions now stock a wide range of specialist filtration medias. We sell pallet and half pallet quantities to the trade, also filter medias by the sack along with assembled back wash and brining type filter systems. As with all specialist medias, a full Audit HSE analysis is required for application of the media to the source water, along with hands on experience, extended training, relevant qualifications and a good all round knowledge of water treatment systems and their installation.

All water softeners & water softener valves sold by Galway Water since 2005 have been Clack WS1CI commercial quality metered water softeners.
Because the water softener market in Galway and Ireland is competitive, the decision to buy a small or undersized timer water softener because of budget or space restrictions, all too often means that customers end up paying a high price, because these water softeners are over priced, they are high cost to run with excessive salt use / water use / extra servicing and then finally they fail prematurely. A bit like trying to use a moped scooter to tow a caravan.
During the Celtic Tiger years, many water treatment firms used pressure selling techniques and questionable methods to test water, unfortunately money was easily parted with in times of abundant work and accelerating house prices.
