Manufacturer warranties cover defects in materials and workmanship under normal use. Wear items and consumables (e.g., filter cartridges, UV lamps, RO membranes, O‑rings) are excluded unless otherwise specified. Damage from incorrect installation, misuse, freezing, dry‑running pumps or chemical incompatibility is not covered.
Email your order number, a description of the issue, installation photos and a short video if possible. Many technical issues can be resolved remotely via troubleshooting. If a return is needed, we’ll provide instructions.
Glass components (e.g., UV lamps and quartz sleeves) are fragile. Although we package carefully, courier handling is beyond our control. Transit damage must be reported within 24 hours with photos so we can assist with a claim or resolution.
Review the product’s connection size (e.g., ¼" tubing, ¾" or 1" BSP), flow‑rate range (L/h), pressure rating (kPa/bar) and media type. If unsure, send photos of your current setup and any labels/part numbers—we’ll verify.
Yes. Share your use case (household size/bedrooms, daily usage in litres, source water type), any water test results, and target outcomes (potable vs general use). We’ll suggest a staged system with clear upgrade paths.
Where available we link datasheets on product pages. If you need a manual or technical drawing, ask us and we’ll share the correct document.
For borehole, wellpoint and rainwater, a lab test is strongly recommended. Knowing pH, hardness (mg/L as CaCO₃), iron/manganese, turbidity (NTU), TDS, bacteria (E. coli/coliforms) and oxidants helps us size the correct solution.
It depends on the application. For household use: turbidity, iron/manganese, pH, hardness and microbiology are key. For drinking: add TDS, nitrate/nitrite and free chlorine. For irrigation: iron, hardness and suspended solids may affect nozzles and drippers.
Household peak demand is typically assessed from the number of bathrooms and fixtures. As a broad guide, many domestic POE systems are sized for 1,200–3,000 L/h. If you have large baths, rain showers or irrigation overlap, share details so we can check pressure/flow properly.
We do not offer an in‑house installation service. However, we can refer you to independent installers in many regions. You’re welcome to use your preferred plumber/contractor; we’ll provide guidance and datasheets.
Common requirements include PTFE tape, appropriate BSP adapters, shut‑off valves and unions for maintenance, a pressure gauge before/after the filter set, and a bypass line where recommended. All of which we can supply as well. For UV systems, ensure a dedicated 230 V weatherproof socket, surge protection and correct earthing.
Yes.
- Flush new carbon cartridges thoroughly before connecting sensitive elements. For under‑counter RO: flush pre‑filters for ±10 minutes before installing the RO membrane, then power off, fit the membrane correctly (seal towards the cap end; feed spigot seated fully), restart and flush for a further ±5 minutes. Check for leaks and re‑pressurise gradually.
- Set back washable filter to backwash on start up to flush the media prior to filtering.
- Ensure UV's are filled with water prior to turning on the unit.
- Open a outlet when starting up initial flow through your system to release the air.
Most domestic houses operate between 2–6 bar which is sufficient. If your supply pressure is low, consider a booster pump; if it’s high or variable, fit a pressure‑reducing valve and expansion protection as required.
At a minimum: adequate sediment removal, activated carbon for taste/odour and residual organics, and UV sterilisation for microbiological safety. Eg; A 3 stage big blue unit with UV for clean water at medium flow rates . Additional stages (e.g., iron/manganese removal, pH correction, hardness management) depend on your lab results. Higher levels of contaminants may require alternative media types or FRP vessels to achieve adequate performance.
Acidic water (low pH) can be corrosive. Neutralising media (e.g., calcite, aquastab or blended media) can raise pH and stabilise LSI. System sizing is based on pH, alkalinity, LSI (Langelier Saturation Index) and flow rate. Share your analysis so we can advise.
Scale‑management media, like Siliphos, in cartridges or vessels can reduce deposition and help protect geysers, elements and fixtures. For severe hardness, an ion‑exchange softener may be required.
With correct pre‑filtration, carbon treatment and a validated disinfection step (UV or equivalent), rainwater can be made potable. Roof hygiene, first‑flush diverters, tank maintenance and periodic testing remain important.
Downstream of final filtration on a clean, low‑turbidity line (< 1 NTU ideally) to ensure adequate UV transmittance. Mount as per manual, allow service access and consider a bypass.
Yes. UV intensity decays over time; replace annually (approx. 8,000–9,000 hours). Keep the quartz sleeve clean and handle glass with care.
No. UV provides disinfection without chemicals and does not alter taste or odour.
RO membranes reject a large proportion of dissolved salts (TDS), heavy metals and many contaminants. A complete RO system includes pre‑filtration (sediment and carbon), the RO membrane, a storage tank (domestic) and post‑filtration. RO is not a substitute for UV if microbiological safety of the source is uncertain.
Pre‑filters ± every 6 months, post‑filter annually, membrane every 2–3 years or when low to no flow (depending on feed TDS/pressure). Sanitise tubing/tank periodically. Replace the UV lamp (if fitted) annually.
New carbon cartridges can release fine carbon. Flushing the pre‑filters for ~10 minutes first prevents fouling the RO membrane. After flushing, power off, install the membrane correctly, then restart and perform a final rinse.
A common domestic sequence is 5 µm sediment → carbon block → 1 µm sediment polish. For turbid sources, use staged sediment removal (e.g., 20 µm then 5 µm). The correct choice depends on your water quality and flow.
Both are standard housing families. Big Blue (20" × 4.5") has greater surface area and lower pressure drop at higher flow rates than Slimline (10" × 2.5" or 20" × 2.5"). Choose based on peak flow and available space.
Symptoms include noticeable pressure drop, taste/odour breakthrough, or elapsed time since last change. A dual pressure gauge (before/after) helps track clogging objectively.
Yes—many of our cartridges, media and components carry NSF or equivalent certifications. Check individual product pages or ask us for the relevant documentation.
If your static pressure is low or fluctuates, a multistage booster pump with pressure control can stabilise household supply. For treatment systems, confirm pump curves against desired L/h and head losses through filters.
Include inlet strainers where recommended, avoid running pumps dry, provide expansion/thermal protection on hot‑water lines, and install pressure‑reducing valves if supply pressure exceeds device ratings.
Yes, including adjustable sprays, rotors, bubblers and accessories. Match nozzles to pressure/flow and coverage, and keep suspended solids low to prevent clogging.
Yes, we stock a range of sand/glass media and UV units suited to pools, ponds and aquaria. Selection depends on pool volume (m³), turnover rate, and clarity requirements.
Not recommended. Pool systems require dedicated circulation and filtration sized for the pool’s turnover and chemistry. Ask us for pool‑specific options.
Yes. Approved contractors/resellers receive tiered discounts based on a rolling 30‑day spend (guideline tiers from 5% to 15%). Apply on our Trade page with your company details and typical monthly volume.
Tiers are reviewed continuously on a rolling 30‑day basis. As your spend changes, your tier may adjust automatically. We’ll notify you of any changes.
