How a Whole House Water Filtration System Works
Whole house water filtration systems connect at your main water entry point so every tap, shower, and appliance receives filtered water. Unlike countertop filters, they’re designed to handle Auckland’s mains, tank, or mixed supplies with consistent performance.
1. Sediment Filtration
The first stage removes sand, rust, and silt that enter through ageing pipes or roof catchments. Filters down to 5 microns protect your plumbing and appliances from wear while keeping the system efficient and reducing maintenance costs.
2. Chlorine, Taste, and Odour Control
Carbon block filters reduce chlorine, pesticides, organic chemicals, and metals such as copper and lead. This improves taste, removes odours, and delivers fresher water throughout your home.
3. UV Disinfection for Microbe Protection
For homes using rainwater or where maximum safety is needed, UV light sterilises bacteria, viruses, and protozoa. This step is essential for tank users or during seasonal runoff when contamination risks increase.
4. System Installation and Maintenance
Systems are available in single or multi-stage setups depending on your water source and local conditions. We install units at your main supply for easy servicing, with cartridges replaced every 6–12 months and UV lamps annually.

Maintenance Requirements for Whole House Filtration System
Keeping a whole house water filtration system maintained ensures clean, safe water throughout your property. Regular servicing avoids water quality issues, extends the life of the system, and protects your investment. Here are the key areas that require ongoing attention.
Filter Cartridge Changes
Filter cartridges collect sediment, chlorine, and other particles, so they clog over time. Most systems need a cartridge replacement every 6 to 12 months depending on water use and supply conditions. Ignoring this step leads to poor filtration, low pressure, and reduced water quality.
UV Unit and System Cleaning
UV disinfection units lose effectiveness after about a year even if the lamp still appears to be working. The quartz sleeve also needs cleaning or replacement to stop bacteria from passing through. Regular servicing ensures water remains safe for households using tank or bore water.
Pressure Monitoring and Bypass Setup
A noticeable drop in tap pressure is often the first sign of a clogged filter or fault. Pressure gauges and bypass valves make it possible to carry out maintenance without cutting off the water supply. Monitoring these features ensures the system runs smoothly and avoids sudden interruptions.
Sanitising Filter Housings
Filter housings can collect biofilm and bacteria, especially in tank-fed systems. Annual sanitation with food-grade cleaning solutions keeps the housing hygienic and prevents contamination. Skipping this step risks bacteria spreading into the household water supply.
Whole house water filtration systems only work properly when each component is maintained on schedule. Neglecting upkeep leads to dirty water, damaged parts, and higher repair costs. Contact our team today for reliable servicing and long-term water quality peace of mind.
