If you rely on tank water, it is not uncommon for rainwater collected from rooftops into tanks to contain sediment, bacteria and viruses. Disinfecting the tank water regularly is a great start, but nothing ensures safe drinking water more than three stage filtration. This means coarse filtration, fine filtration and UV disinfection. While it might sound complicated, our water treatment systems contain everything you need in a neat, easy to install package.

Surely my municipal supply is safe?

While the municipal water supply in New Zealand is generally high quality by global standards, there are still hundreds of reported cases every year of people contracting bugs like giardia and cryptosporidium from their drinking water. [source]

As mains water passes down the pipeline it can also be tainted by substances like aluminium, lead, asbestos, pesticides, sulphur, sediment, and rust. While small amounts of these contaminants may not be harmful, larger amounts over a prolonged period could start to cause health problems.

Plus, if your drinking water doesn’t taste great due to excess chlorine and the like, you’re much less likely to want to drink it, and we all know that drinking plenty of water is good for us.
