Frequently Asked Questions

Reverse Osmosis is a water purification technology that uses a semi-permeable membrane to remove contaminants from water. Water is pushed through the membrane under pressure, leaving behind impurities like chlorine, fluoride, heavy metals, bacteria, and dissolved solids. Our RO systems remove up to 99.9% of contaminants, providing you with pure, safe drinking water.

Our water filters effectively remove chlorine, fluoride, lead, mercury, arsenic, bacteria, viruses, cysts, microplastics, pesticides, and other harmful contaminants. The specific contaminants removed depend on the filter type - our RO systems provide the most comprehensive filtration, removing up to 99.9% of all contaminants.

Regular water filters typically use activated carbon to remove chlorine, odours, and some chemicals. RO systems go further by forcing water through a semi-permeable membrane that removes dissolved solids, heavy metals, fluoride, and microorganisms that regular filters cannot catch. For the purest water, we recommend our RO systems.

Yes, our Reverse Osmosis systems effectively remove fluoride from water. Standard carbon filters do not remove fluoride, so if fluoride removal is important to you, we recommend our RO purifiers.

Filter lifespan varies by type and usage. Pre-filters typically last 6-12 months, RO membranes last 2-3 years, and post-filters last 6-12 months. We recommend following the maintenance schedule provided with your system. Our team will remind you when it's time for replacement.

Australian tap water meets safety standards, but it still contains chlorine for disinfection, may contain fluoride, and can pick up contaminants from aging pipes. Many people prefer filtered water for better taste and to remove these additives and potential contaminants.

Water utilities add chlorine to disinfect water and kill harmful bacteria. While safe in small amounts, it affects taste and smell. Our carbon and RO filters effectively remove chlorine, giving you fresh, clean-tasting water.

Filtered water is often fresher (filtered on demand), more environmentally friendly (no plastic bottles), and more economical in the long run. Our RO systems provide water quality equal to or better than most bottled water brands.

Filtered water removes potentially harmful contaminants while often retaining beneficial minerals (depending on filter type). Many customers report improved taste leading to increased water consumption, which has numerous health benefits. Removing chlorine and other chemicals can also benefit those with sensitivities.
