GENERAL

In Australia, we are lucky that our tap water is generally safe to drink, but it may not meet our quality expectations, such as taste and smell. Australia’s water systems are under frightful stress due to drought and climatic changes. Although the water that derives from the city treatment plants should be microbiologically safe and conform to quality guidelines, this water travels through aging pipes before it reaches your tap. This not only causes contamination but can be detrimental to your health and wellbeing. Our water filters are technologically advanced and are a necessity for every home. We want you to have fresh, clean and safe drinkable water.

Generally, our rule of thumb is 6 to 12 months. Exhaustion on your filter depends on numerous factors. If you purchase your water purification system through Aqua Fresh, we send you a friendly reminder by email when your filter is due to be replaced.
From the 6-month period, it’s common to notice the change in taste and/or smell of your water. This could be an indicator of a few events – change in weather that will cause biological growth elsewhere in the system that could be coming through to your home filter or simply mean the filter is nearing end of life. This does not mean that your filter is not working at all, it simply means that is not working at 100% efficiency. At this point, you want to seriously think about booking in your replacement filter or ordering online.

Depending on where you live in Australia or in your city, your water can be different from suburb to suburb due to many different circumstances such as age of infrastructure, hardness of the water in your regional area and current weather events – link to blog. In general, a good quality water filter is designed to reduce chlorine, chloramine, fluoride and filter out sediment and parasites. Talking to our experienced staff will determine what solution suits your highest priority for getting your water filter system.

There are a number of motivators, the key ones including:
