It's not the safety, it's the taste and the wear
Melbourne mains water is safe and good quality. What people ring us about is the chlorine. You can taste it in a glass of water and smell it in the steam of a hot shower.
Then there is sediment. Fine grit and rust off older galvanised or copper pipework, or stirred up when the water authority works on the street. You see it as cloudy water, clogged aerators and staining on shower screens.
The rest you feel rather than see. Itchy skin after a long shower, and scale building on the elements of your hot water system, dishwasher and washing machine. None of it will hurt you, but it wears expensive gear out early.

A whole house system goes in on the incoming mains, before the water branches off. Everything downstream is filtered: kitchen, bathrooms, showers, laundry, the hot water unit and the outside taps. Nothing to remember, nothing on the bench.
Sizing is the part cheap systems get wrong. A housing too small for the house chokes flow, and you notice the moment two showers and the washing machine run at once. We size to your bathroom count, incoming main and peak usage.
Most homes run a sediment cartridge first to catch grit and rust, then a carbon stage for the chlorine taste and smell. If you only want better drinking water, a filtered tap at the kitchen sink does it for less.

We initially thought this was just a simple blockage that we could fix ourselves, but the team at Elite Plumbing quickly showed us it was more than that. They took the time to properly investigate the issue, explained everything clearly, and walked us through what needed to be done without overcomplicating things. You could tell straight away they really knew what they were doing. What stood out the most was how easy they were to deal with, communication was smooth, they were responsive, and always followed up. No chasing, no confusion, just clear and honest updates. It's not often you come across a team that is both professional and genuinely easy to work with. Really appreciate their help and would highly recommend Elite Plumbing to anyone

Incredible and reliable service! I had an emergency situation with a blocked drain and overflowing sewage in my garden late afternoon on a 43 degree day. I found Kurt's details online, he arrived with all of his equipment within 30 minutes. Worked tirelessly in intense heat to identify the issue (which was actually impacting my neighbours house too, they didn't know because they were away!). Kurt made contact with relevant water and council services and used his years of training and experience to resolve the issue. Friendly, professional, no-nonsense service. 10/10 would recommend!

Whole House Water Filtration FAQs
It is safe, and good quality by world standards. Filtration deals with what treatment leaves behind: the chlorine taste and smell, sediment and rust picked up in the pipes, staining on fixtures, and scale inside your hot water unit and appliances.
Not if it is sized correctly. Any filter adds some resistance, so we fit a housing with enough flow capacity for the property. Pressure complaints almost always trace back to an undersized system or cartridges left in far too long.
On the incoming mains, as close to where it enters the property as practical, so everything downstream is filtered. Usually an external wall near the meter or the side of the garage, somewhere you can reach with two hands for a cartridge change.
The first stage is sediment, a physical barrier that catches grit, sand and rust flakes. The second is carbon, which deals with the chlorine taste and smell. Sediment runs first because it protects the carbon stage and makes it last longer.
If it is only drinking and cooking water, a filtered tap at the kitchen sink costs a lot less up front. Go whole house when you want the showers, laundry and appliances covered too. On a tank supply, see rainwater tank filtration.
We are based in Glenroy and install water filtration right across Melbourne, with the north and north-west being our home patch. Tell us your suburb when you call and we will confirm and book a time.
