Temple Water designs customerfocused solutions, validated to be e ective, and that stand the test of time. “Every treatment system we’ve built for the last 22 years we’ve tested and veri ied the water that comes out of it,” says company managing director and founder Chris Temple. “This is how we know what works and how we design robust solutions that last.” A good example is a recent project for kiwifruit grower Southern Cross Horticulture. Temple Water designed a system that ensured the water going onto this client’s soil had the correct chemistry to meet their growing requirements. Iron and manganese – which could block up pipes and drippers and stain shade cloth - were identi ied that needed to be removed and an Iron-Master Catalytic Filter System (CFS) was supplied and installed. Due to a small site footprint, the system was installed in a 40ft container. Temple Water designed special features and installed them into the treatment room in the container including a dome roof and vents in the loor and roof to keep the container cool. While an air conditioner would have been the typical solution Temple Water’s innovation worked with the natural environment to achieve the same result but more sustainably. “The end result is the water quality is perfect for our application,” says Russell Dunstan of Southern Cross TempleWater Technologies Ltd Horticulture. “It’s a very user friendly solution and can be monitored as well” At Temple Water we will continue to monitor the water so we know, for example, when the iron level starts to break through and therefore when the perfect time to calibrate the system to backwash is.” Says Chris Temple. Temple Water’s processes and products have been developed by Chris, a quali ied NZCS chemist with over 30 years experience in iltration and water treatment within New Zealand and overseas, and the great team at Temple Water “Our customers’ experience of the water treatment system we supply is primary in our minds when we design a system. What they will get, will it last them and is it the best option to suit their needs both now and into the future are all questions we ask,” says company general manager Robyn Lonsdale. “Many people don't realise their treatment plant is not working quite right,” says Chris. “That costs them money in the long run as their system is not working optimally and it also a ects the maintenance requirements of the whole irrigation system and plant. Experience, testing and validating results is everything in this business. We are proud to provide our customers with a water quality guarantee assuring them the quality of the water post treatment is to New Zealand Drinking Water Standards.” “
