Who is Idromar?
Idromar is an Italian manufacturer specializing in reverse-osmosis watermaker systems for yachts and boats. By forcing seawater through membranes at high pressure, its systems convert it into drinking and utility water, with capacities ranging from tens to hundreds of litres per hour to suit everything from compact motor yachts to superyachts. Its PLC-based automation and touch-screen control models are designed to keep boats self-sufficient for fresh water on extended time at sea. Full product details are on the manufacturer's official site: idromar.tv.
Aslan Yacht and Idromar
Aslan Yacht is an authorized dealer and service partner for Idromar watermaker systems in Turgutreis, Bodrum. The team's service covers everything from initial installation through membrane maintenance, high-pressure pump service and PLC/control panel fault diagnosis. Aslan Yacht also builds its own Leo Mare watermaker line; that experience carries directly over to servicing Idromar systems. Because watermakers place a notable load on the boat's energy system, power requirements are also assessed before installation.
Typical service jobs in Bodrum
For boat owners around Turgutreis D-Marin, Yalıkavak Palmarina, Milta Bodrum Marina and the surrounding area, the most common jobs are:
- Installation and commissioning: mounting the membrane unit, high-pressure pump, pre-filters and control panel in the engine room.
- Membrane maintenance: fresh-water flushing, chemical cleaning and membrane replacement when needed.
- High-pressure pump service: checking seals, valves and the motor; resolving low-pressure complaints.
- Control panel/PLC diagnosis: reading and fixing touch-screen, sensor and automation faults.
- Winterization and season opening: preserving the system with storage fluid for winter and recommissioning it in spring.

Capacity selection and installation notes
Idromar's compact models suit smaller boats producing a few hundred litres a day, while larger motor yachts and superyachts typically use dual-membrane systems capable of hundreds of litres per hour. The right capacity is chosen based on daily water consumption per person, tank volume and the boat's typical use profile (charter, long-range cruising). The salinity of Aegean waters and water quality near marinas make the pre-filtration stage particularly important; Aslan Yacht plans the seawater intake point and pre-filter stages around these conditions before installation. The high-pressure pump's electrical supply is also usually sized in coordination with the boat's main energy system.
Why Aslan Yacht?
A team able to handle both the mechanical side (high-pressure pump, membranes, valves) and the electronic side (PLC, touch panel, sensors) of an Idromar system in-house speeds up diagnosis and prevents recurring faults.
