Whole House Water Filtration

  • Removes chlorine & sediment.
  • Filters water at every tap.
  • Protects skin & hair.

Filter your water at the mains entry point. A whole house system ensures that every drop of water used for showering, cooking, and cleaning is filtered, removing the harsh chemical smell of town water.

Water Softeners (Hard Water)

  • Eliminates limescale.
  • Extends appliance life.
  • Better lather with less soap.

Essential for suburbs such as Kirwan and Douglas. Due to the mineral-rich water supplied from the Ross River Dam, calcium build-up can damage hot water systems and tapware. Our softeners remove these minerals before they enter your pipes.

  • Removes fluoride & metals.
  • Under-sink installation.

For the purest drinking water possible. Our RO systems remove a wide range of contaminants, including fluoride, heavy metals, and bacteria. We recommend and install high-quality systems to suit your needs.

Common Questions

Expert Answers on Softeners, Rainwater Tanks & Filtration

  • Do I really need a water softener in Townsville?

    It depends on your suburb and water supply. Townsville's water contains naturally occurring minerals that can contribute to hard water. If you notice white scale deposits or experience dry skin, a water softener may be beneficial.

  • What is the difference between whole house water filtration and reverse osmosis?

    A whole house water filtration system treats water at the mains entry point, reducing chlorine, sediment, and other impurities throughout the home. A reverse osmosis system is typically installed under a sink and provides highly purified drinking water.

  • Can you treat bore water to make it safe for drinking?

    Yes. We design customised bore water treatment systems based on water testing results. Solutions may include iron removal, filtration media, and UV sterilisation systems.

  • Will a water filter remove the strong chlorine taste from my tap water?

    Yes. Carbon filtration systems are highly effective at reducing chlorine taste and odour, providing fresher-tasting water directly from the tap.

  • How much does a whole house water filtration system cost to install?

    The cost depends on the size of your home, water quality, and the type of system required. We provide free assessments and written quotes tailored to your needs.

  • Does a water softener help with dry skin and eczema?

    Many customers report improvements in skin comfort after installing a water softener. Softened water allows soap to rinse away more effectively and may reduce irritation caused by hard water minerals.

  • Do you service and replace filters for existing systems?

    Yes. We service many major brands and can replace cartridges, UV lamps, filtration media, and other consumable components.

  • Is it safe to connect rainwater to my whole house supply?

    Yes, provided the system is correctly designed and installed. We can install filtration and UV sterilisation systems to help ensure rainwater is suitable for household use.

  • How often do reverse osmosis filters need changing?

    Pre-filters are typically replaced every 6–12 months, while RO membranes often last 2–3 years, depending on water quality and usage.

  • Why should I hire a licensed plumber for filter installation?

    Water filtration systems connect directly to your plumbing. A licensed plumber ensures the system is installed correctly, safely, and in accordance with relevant regulations.
