Why Perth Homes Need Water Filtration
Perth’s scheme water - while safe to drink according to Water Corporation standards, often contains high levels of chlorine, sediment, and other treatment chemicals that can impact taste and potentially reduce the lifespan of your appliances. Perth’s hard water minerals, in particular, cause scale buildup in pipes, kettles, and hot water systems, leading to higher energy bills and more frequent repairs.
Common Water Quality Issues in Perth
Chlorine Taste & Odour
Perth's water contains chlorine levels between 0.4-1.0 mg/L as a disinfectant. While essential for safety according to the Department of Health WA, this chemical treatment creates that distinctive chlorine taste, it’s not something you want in every glass of water.

Hard Water Damage
Perth’s water is known for its high mineral content, leading to scale deposits that clog pipes, reduce appliance efficiency, and can shorten your plumbing’s lifespan. According to Water Corporation, Perth's water hardness ranges from 105-145 mg/L in many areas - causing those stubborn scale deposits you might notice on taps, shower screens, and inside appliances.

Sediment & Other Contaminants
Many families want extra peace of mind. Advanced filtration systems remove not just chlorine and sediment but also a range of potential impurities.

Filtration Technologies for Perth's Water Challenges
Different water quality issues require specific filtration solutions. Our systems employ precisely matched technologies to address Perth's unique water conditions:
Carbon Filtration Technology
- How it works: Activated carbon with 100-250 m²/g surface area adsorbs chlorine molecules and organic compounds
- Best for: Removing chlorine (up to 96%), improving taste and odour, reducing certain organic chemicals
- Typical applications: Undersink drinking systems, shower filters, first stage in whole-house systems
Sediment Filtration Technology
- How it works: Physical barriers with precisely calibrated micron ratings (5μm down to 0.1μm) trap particles
- Best for: Removing visible particles, protecting appliances, extending the life of other filter types
- Perth application: Particularly important for older suburbs with aging infrastructure
Reverse Osmosis Technology
- How it works: Semi-permeable membrane with 0.0001 micron pores removes up to 99% of dissolved contaminants
- Best for: Comprehensive purification including fluoride, nitrates, and heavy metals
- Production efficiency: Modern systems achieve 1:1 or 1:2 water recovery ratios, balancing performance with water conservation
Water Softening Technology
- How it works: Ion exchange process swaps calcium and magnesium (hardness minerals) for sodium ions
- Best for: Preventing scale buildup in pipes and appliances, improving soap efficiency
- Perth application: Particularly valuable in areas with 120-180 mg/L hardness levels
Our water quality assessment determines which technologies or combinations will deliver the best results for your specific situation.
