Injection points
Injection of chlorine dioxide into the water system
can be done wherever it is deemed suitable. If a total
disinfection is desired, the injection point should be
located where the water main enters the building.

star hotel in
Warsaw
A five star hotel must deliver the very highest level
of comfort and safety for its guests. Le Meridien
Bristol in Warsaw opened in 1993 and relied on the
expertise of Grundfos for all its installations.
Grundfos provided circulation pumps, boosters
and wastewater pumps. To ensure the guests’
protection from legionella bacteria, the hotel chose
to install the Oxiperm Pro. As a result, the hotel
INJECTION POINT can continue to provide world-class service, and the
