FAQs

What makes Guild’s cutting-edge water purification systems different from standard home filters?

Guild systems combine multi-stage membrane filtration, UV-C sterilization, and smart sensors in a single integrated unit. This design removes 99.99 % of bacteria, viruses, heavy metals, PFAS, and micro-plastics while constantly monitoring water quality and sending real-time data to your phone. Traditional countertop or pitcher filters usually rely on a single carbon stage and do not actively kill microbes or provide live performance feedback.

Can the purification unit be retrofitted into my existing plumbing without major remodeling?

Yes. Our modules are designed for quick in-line installation on the main cold-water line or under a specific sink. Compact dimensions (38 cm × 18 cm × 12 cm) let them fit standard 600 mm kitchen cabinets, and push-fit connections mean no soldering. A certified Guild plumber can complete most retrofits in 2–3 hours with minimal disruption or wall removal.

How often will I need to replace filters or UV lamps, and what is the cost?

The pre-sediment and carbon composite cartridge lasts 12 months or 4,000 L, whichever comes first. The reverse-osmosis membrane typically lasts 24 months, and the UV-C LED module is rated for 10,000 hours (about 5 years of normal use). Replacement kits cost approximately £48 for the annual cartridge and £89 for the bi-annual RO membrane; the UV module is £65 when eventually required. The system’s companion app alerts you when parts reach end-of-life and lets you order replacements with one tap.

Does the system waste water during purification like traditional reverse-osmosis units?

Guild’s Eco-RO technology utilises a closed-loop circulation pump that re-pressurises the reject stream, cutting wastewater by up to 80 % compared with legacy RO systems. On average, only 0.3 L of waste is produced for every litre of purified water—significantly below the industry norm of 2–4 L.

Is the purified water mineral-free, and if so, is that safe to drink?

While RO membranes remove most dissolved minerals, Guild systems include a controlled remineralisation stage that adds back essential calcium and magnesium to reach an ideal 60–90 ppm TDS. This adheres to WHO guidelines for palatable, healthy drinking water and prevents the ‘flat’ taste associated with completely de-mineralised water.

What certifications and warranties back Guild’s water purification solutions?

All components are NSF/ANSI 42, 53, and 58 certified for contaminant reduction. Our UV-C module meets NSF/ANSI 55 Class A standards for microbiological purifiers. Each installation comes with a 5-year manufacturer’s warranty covering parts and labour when serviced annually by a Guild-approved technician, plus a 30-day satisfaction guarantee allowing returns for any reason.
