Children drink more water relative to their body weight than adults. So what's in the water – limestone, chlorine, heavy metals – affects them more strongly. For families in Cyprus, the question of water quality is therefore no small matter.
What Families in Cyprus Drink Every Day
Tap water in Cyprus is officially safe. But "safe" doesn't mean "optimal". Around 70% of drinking water comes from seawater desalination – the result is water with high limestone content, a chlorine taste and sometimes a slightly salty aftertaste.
Many families solve the problem with bottled water – spending 60€ or more per month in the process. That adds up to over 700€ per year, just for drinking water.
Why Clean Water Is Especially Important for Children
Children are more sensitive to contaminants in water than adults. Their bodies absorb substances faster and break them down more slowly. Heavy metals such as lead and copper – which can enter water from old pipes – are particularly problematic for children's development.
Chlorine and its by-products are also viewed critically with prolonged consumption – especially for toddlers and babies whose bodies are still developing.
What a Reverse Osmosis System Means for Your Family
With a Coway reverse osmosis system from hydrateme.cy, you filter right at the source:
- No more limestone in the water – better for digestion and kidneys
- No chlorine – no unpleasant smell, better taste
- No heavy metals – maximum safety for children
- No microplastics – a growing issue in water supplies
The result: your children drink clean, freshly filtered water every day – directly from the system, at the touch of a button.
Which Model Is Best for Families?
For smaller families or as an entry-level option: The Coway Global P (P-6320L) from 590€ – delivers filtered water at room temperature. Simple, reliable, affordable.
For families who also want tea and coffee: The Coway Ciroo Driver (CHP-6310L) from 1,100€ – cold, room temperature and hot from one device. Practical for family everyday life.
For families with high standards: The Coway Windy III (CHP-6330L) from 1,200€ – with "My Cup" function, three temperature settings and modern design.
For large families or households with high demand: The Coway Harry (CHP-590R) from 1,600€ – the floor-standing unit for maximum water volume. Ideal when many people need a lot of water every day.
The Calculation for Families
| Bottled Water | Coway System | |
|---|---|---|
| Monthly costs | ~60€ | ~8€ (filter costs pro-rated) |
| Annual costs | ~720€ | ~75–100€ (filter changes) |
| 5 years | ~3,600€ | ~1,090€ (incl. system) |
From the second year, clean water for your family costs only the annual filter change – while bottled water costs continue unabated.
Buy or Rent – What's Better for Families?
If you're planning long-term and staying in Cyprus, buying is clearly worth it. If you want to try it out first or stay flexible, the rental model with a one-time installation fee of 75€ is a good option.
