- Electrical requirements

Water Quality & Filtration Requirements
Proper water quality is one of the most critical factors in protecting coffee equipment.
Water that is too hard, too soft, or improperly filtered can cause:

- Valve and pump failure
- Premature equipment breakdown
Damage related to poor water quality, scale, or lack of filtration is not covered under warranty.
Many manufacturers provide water testing guidelines or kits. For example, some espresso machine manufacturers include water test kits to verify that water meets their specifications.
Espresso Analyst can help with:
- Installation of appropriate water filtration
- Test water quality where required
- Maintain and replace filters according to manufacturer guidelines
Failure to meet manufacturer water specifications is one of the most common causes of equipment failure and warranty denial.
Our team is happy to recommend appropriate filtration solutions during the purchasing process.
