What's coming through your pipes?

Melbourne's mains water is treated and safe to drink. Between the treatment plant and your tap it travels a long way, and the chlorine that keeps it safe in the network is something most people would rather not taste, smell, or shower in.

Sediment and rust
Silt, sand and rust particles from mains works and older pipes end up in household water, aerators and appliance inlets.
Chlorine taste and smell
The disinfectant that keeps water safe in the network is what you taste in a glass and smell in the shower.
Ageing pipework
Older streets and homes add discolouration, especially after supply interruptions or works in the street.
Tank and mixed supply
Homes on rainwater or switching between supplies benefit from consistent filtration at the inlet.

Three stages. One complete system.

Each stage catches something different, and each one protects the next. That is why cartridges last a full year and the water coming out is the same on day 300 as it was on day one.

Mains water enters, passes through sediment, carbon and carbon block stages, and flows to every tap.1Sediment2Carbon3Carbon blockMains inEvery tap
  1. Stage 1

    Sediment

    Catches the particles

    A pleated 5 micron cartridge traps sand, silt, rust and other suspended particles before they reach the finer stages, so those cartridges last longer.

  2. Stage 2

    Carbon

    Reduces chlorine taste and odour

    Activated carbon reduces chlorine, unpleasant tastes and odours, and the organic compounds that affect how water smells.

  3. Stage 3

    Carbon block

    Polishes the water

    A dense carbon block gives a final polish, so the water reaching every tap is clear and consistent, glass after glass.

Better water, wherever you use it.

A tap filter helps one sink. Aquaridge covers every room that uses water, from the first glass in the morning to the last shower at night.

Questions people ask before they book.

Straight answers. If yours is not here, call and ask.

Is Melbourne tap water safe without a filter?

Yes. Melbourne's mains water meets Australian Drinking Water Guidelines. Aquaridge is about taste, smell, sediment and what reaches your fixtures and appliances, not about making unsafe water safe.

Will a whole-home system drop my water pressure?

Not noticeably. We use large 20 inch housings with 25 mm connections, sized for whole-household flow, so pressure stays strong when several taps run at once.

How often do the cartridges need changing?

Typically once a year for the carbon stages and 6 to 12 months for the sediment stage, depending on your water. The pressure gauge shows when it is time, and we remind you anyway.

What does installation involve?

A licensed plumber fits the system on your main supply, usually near the water meter, in two to three hours. Water is off for about an hour. You receive a plumbing compliance certificate before we leave.

Does it remove fluoride or soften hard water?

No. Carbon filtration does not remove fluoride, and Melbourne water is soft enough that softening is rarely needed. If you want fluoride removal at the kitchen tap, ask us about a reverse osmosis add-on.

What if I move house?

The system stays with the house, and we can quote a new one for your next home. Care Plans can be cancelled anytime or transferred to the new owner.
