remove sub-micron particles, bacteria, and turbidity
Ultra filtration systems for clean, clear water
PFS offers advanced Ultra Filtration (UF) Systems to resolve water clarity and safety issues for residential, commercial, and industrial clients. These systems use high-performance membranes to remove suspended solids, bacteria, and even microscopic contaminants—delivering crystal-clear, reliable water on demand.

What Is ultra filtration and why It matters
Ultra Filtration is a highly effective method for improving water quality by targeting contaminants too small for traditional filters. Whether you’re dealing with cloudy water, bacterial contamination, or fine particulates that never settle, a properly installed UF system can transform your water supply into a clean, dependable resource.
How Ultra Filtration Works
The heart of a UF system is the membrane. Water is pressurised through the membrane, which blocks suspended solids and microorganisms while allowing clean water to pass through. Some systems include backwashing valves for membrane cleaning, and chlorine dosing may be used to minimise microbial build-up. Without regular maintenance and pre-filtration, the membrane can become blinded—emphasising the need for a complete, well-designed treatment setup.
What are Ultra Filtration systems?
Ultra Filtration (UF) systems use semi-permeable membranes to filter out particles smaller than one micron—such as clays, colloids, organic matter, bacteria, and viruses. These contaminants often remain suspended in water, causing turbidity that standard filters can't address. UF technology captures them efficiently, resulting in visibly clearer and safer water for various applications, from drinking supplies to industrial processing.
Why Pre-Treatment Is critical
While UF membranes excel at fine filtration, they are susceptible to clogging if larger particles enter the system. That's why appropriate pre-treatment is essential. This could include sediment filtration, dosing systems, or coagulation methods that remove larger debris before water reaches the UF unit. PFS ensures your UF system is supported by the right pre-treatment setup to maximise performance and longevity.
Applications of Ultra Filtration Systems
Ultra filtration systems are used in various applications across residential, commercial, and industrial sectors where water quality is a top priority. These include:
Drinking water treatment
For households or communities with cloudy or contaminated water supplies, UF systems ensure safe, potable water free from harmful bacteria and particles
Agriculture
Farmers rely on clean water for irrigation, livestock watering, and other agricultural processes. UF systems can effectively filter water from wells, rivers, or ponds to ensure it’s safe for crops and animals.
Industrial
Industries such as food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, and textiles require high-quality water for production processes. UF systems ensure water is free from particulate matter and microbial contamination.
Wastewater treatment
UF systems are also employed in wastewater treatment to help purify effluent water before it is released into the environment or reused for non-potable applications.
Municipal water systems
For municipal water suppliers dealing with high turbidity levels, UF systems offer an efficient method to ensure the water provided to residents meets required quality standards.

We’re proud to share the experiences of our valued customers. Their feedback reflects our commitment to quality, reliability, and exceptional service. Here’s what they have to say.
I had the pleasure of dealing with PFS this week for the first time after I had to source a part at very short notice to make a connection to a South West Water sewer. I made a call after being recommended to them and they knew exactly what I needed, exactly when they could get it and when it arrived they even went through the setup. It is now in the ground and working correctly keeping our project on target. I would not hesitate to call them again in the future and would recommend PFS to anyone.

Martin correctly diagnose the problem with my bore hole pump. Olly was most helpful in providing parts for the pump , showing how to wire them and also parts for my UV filter - again giving lots of information. Both Martin and Olly were superb.
