FAQ´s
In general the system is installed outside the house near the water meter or at the side of your home, but there are many more options, which we work out to your needs.
A good filtration system can remove a wide range of contaminants depending on the filter stages the water passes through. The quality and micron rating of each filter cartridge determines the grade of purity. The sediment cartridge captures small particles like sand, rust and dirt. The carbon block cartridge reduces chlorine, heavy metals (lead, copper, and mercury), radon, arsenic, pesticides, bacteria, parasites, and volatile organic compounds, ultimately improving taste and reducing odour of your tap water.
The cost depends on the water source to be treated (i.e. rain water, mains water, bore water) the filter stages applied as well as the puirity grade aimed to be achieved *for more information please visit our Prices*
Reducing chemicals, sediments and other impurities out of water costs between $1.30 and $1.50 a day, pretty good considerng the scale, running pure water throughout your entire house. Buying bottled water becomes history and in addition you are saving energy, cutting down on plumbing maintenance, helping the environment by reducing plastic usage, extending the lifetime of your washing machines, dishwashers, hot water systems and taps. By enjoying life instead of cleaning shower screens and polishing glasses, you and your family will experience a healthier and more vital lifestyle.
*Cartridge life is subject to water quality, usage and area you live
As our client you will automatically enter our database and receive a reminder e-mail from us after about 12 months* post installation. Losing water pressure is another indicator that the cartridges require changing; in that case you can e-mail or call us

Once the system is built to your needs it takes about 2-3 hours to have it fully installed & operational.
Chlorine is added to water to reduces disease-causing pathogens. While this is beneficial for public water, chlorine in your household water supply can have negative effects. Chlorine as a volatile chemical has the property to evaporate into the air easily. Steam generation during hot showers create chlorine vapours, that are capable of causing harm through inhalation.
Chlorine evaporates from any water supply in your house and reduces the air quality in your home.
Inorganic Minerals
There is scientific proof to suggest that most minerals in packaged mineral water are in an inorganic (dead) form. The minerals enter the circulation but are not used in the physiological process of building the human cell. These inorganic minerals only interfere with the delicate and complex biology of the body.
The body gets most of its minerals from food, not drinking water Fact: The organic minerals in tap water represent only 1% of the total mineral content of the water. One glass of orange juice contains more beneficial minerals than 15 liters of untreated tap water.
Organic, or Bio-available Minerals
Only after they have passed through the roots of plants do these inorganic minerals become organic (through photosynthesis) and capable of being assimilated into our tissues as organic minerals. Pure water removes the inorganic mineral deposits in your body. Organic minerals are fully absorbed and remain in your tissues.
Immune systems and detoxification systems are still developing in the early childhood and teen years. Exposure to very low levels of toxic chemicals in drinking water at a young age can lead to greater risk of degenerative diseases and learning disorders in later years. Many of the crucial defense systems that protect adults from disease and environmental pollutants are not fully developed in children, so they are much more sensitive to contaminants. Their developing bodies are simply much more sensitive.
Health standards on levels of contaminants we are permitted to consume in drinking water are all based on the potential effects on adults.
Toxic minerals affect our bodies as chemicals are found in air and in our food on a daily basis. Water is the only way the body can flush out these toxins. Pure water has a higher capacity to cleanse these compounds from the body.
