There is no reason not to have some level of water filtration for the water being supplied to your home in 2024. The addition of a decent water filtration unit should be viewed as a welcome upgrade to your home. 

The upfront cost of a water filtration unit can be off-putting but the unit itself should see many years of service if properly installed and maintained with the filters themselves being, quick and easy to change and fairly inexpensive for the benefit and piece of mind they provide. Don’t forget too, you can always move and re-install them as you need.

There are many options available at most price points and the budget option being to filter water at only specific water fixtures such as a filtered water tap in the kitchen.

For properties relying on rainwater storage tanks a whole house water filtration unit is recommended.

Benefits:

• Remove sediment build from pipework: Protect your, expensive to repair, plumbing. Sediment in pipework can lead to excess turbulence in pipework limiting its lifespan, reduced pressure and flow rates, build up in valves in water fixtures and poor quality water. Check inside your toilet cistern for and indication of sediment.

• Cleaner, better tasting water: Odours, discolouration and tastes are imparted to the water from organic matter in your tank (I refer to it as gumtree tea), to some degree this is unavoidable but an optimised water storage and rain harvesting system can minimise it.

• Consistent water quality: After a dry period and when heavy rain comes your water tanks can become cloudy until the debris settles to the bottom over several days. With a filter, you will still receive that same water quality.

• Prevent bacteria and viruses: These can be filtered out with specific filter cartridges or a UV light filter can be installed which sterilises water as it flows through the UV tube. Bacteria can develop in the anaerobic sludge layer that forms at the base of a tank, when disturbed visible methane gas is released. Time to clean your water tank.
