Whole House Water Filtration Systems
These systems are installed at the main water line entering your home, ensuring that every tap, shower, and appliance receives filtered water.
Entry-Level Whole House System
Best for: Small families or homes in areas with relatively good water quality.
Features:
- Basic 2-stage filtration (sediment + carbon)
- Removes dirt, rust, chlorine, and odours
- Protects plumbing and appliances
- Affordable and easy to maintain
Limitations:
- Doesn’t target fluoride, bacteria, or heavy metals
- Lower flow rates than premium systems
Bonus: Some come with water restructuring or alkalising capabilities.
Premium Whole House System

Whole House with UV (Ultraviolet) Sterilisation
Best for: Homes using rainwater tanks, bore water, or rural water supplies where bacteria could be present.
Features:

Installed under your kitchen sink and connected to a separate tap (or existing one with a three-way mixer).
Features:
