Sterisil AC+ vs SciCan Vistapure Water Purification System
High-quality water is essential in today’s dental practices. It directly impacts patient safety and the lifespan of your equipment. Bacteria in contaminated water can lead to infections, while minerals in hard water can damage expensive tools, especially autoclaves. So following strict water purity standards is not only a legal requirement, but also a responsibility to ensure patient well-being. And here at Sterilizer Autoclave Solutions, it’s our job to help you find the right tools for your practice.
So in this article, we’d like to go over two different water purification systems for your practice: the Sterisil System AC+ and SciCan VistaPure water purification systems. We’ll go over some of their key offerings that can help you make an informed decision about which one is right for you. And if you have any questions about either of these water purification systems or anything else, give us a call at 704-966-1650 Option 3 for our Free Tech Support Line.
