About Pleated/Washable Sediment Filters

Whilst other filter systems tend to block very prematurely - our Triple Filter design is up to the task of handling heavy sediment with a Pleated Pre-filter as standard. Pleated filters are washable and reusable, so you can rinse out any coarse debris to prevent clogging, and they also help to protect the filters thereafter from clogging up prematurely. Pleated filters also have 20x the surface area of a standard polyspun filter, giving them more surface area to catch debris and a longer life! You won't find a filter such as this one anywhere on the market that even comes close to its quality.

About Polyspun Sediment Filters

These economical sediment cartridges are constructed from polypropylene which is spun and melted simultaneously. This technique means there is no centre core to restrict filter performance. The sediment filters are compatible with most liquids and are highly effective for sediment, rust, sand, silt, and algae removal. Sediment filters have no chemical residuals. They are extremely high performing, carry a heavy load of sediment before requiring replacement. We choose to use these sediment filters over all other types due to the high performance, high flow rate, high load capacity, and inability to grow bacterial slime. 

About Coconut Carbon Block Filters

The perfect carbon block filter is made from 100% Coconut Shell Carbon, which creates what many believe to be the sweetest-tasting water. The unique pore structure of coconut carbon is well suited for chemical adsorption, including VOCs, while reducing chlorine and chemicals that contribute to taste and odour.

This high quality 100% Coconut Carbon filter is the exact filter we use as our front-line carbon filter. As a rule, it is difficult to find 100% coconut carbon filters. Most lower priced filters on the market are a blend of coconut carbon and coal-based carbon. However, the problem with coal-based carbon is that it has a shorter life and often results in a less palatable flavour. We use this 100% coconut carbon filter in all of our pre-assembled kits.

 

Filter Combinations

Standard Sediment + Chlorine, Taste + Odour Coconut Carbon (For Mains Water)


Ideal for frequent use on Chlorinated Mains Water.


Fine Sediment + Silver Impregnated Carbon (For Mains or Rain/Potable Bore Water*)

Whilst carbon effectively removes odours and taste issues from water, carbon ash is a source of nourishment for bacteria, and unfortunately, carbon filters can quickly biofuel if left in wet and warm conditions. Silver impregnated (bacteriostatic) carbon, however, prevents biofouling and extends the life of the filters, as it immobilises the respiratory activity of the bacterial cell and prevents bacteria from breeding in the filter. The Silver Carbon filter combo is therefore suited to applications where the system may not be frequently in use for periods of a week or more. Recommended for use with rainwater/caravan use for the convenience of not needing to be prematurely changed due to bacteria growth. 


Medium Sediment + Silver Impregnated Carbon (For Rain/Potable Bore Water*)

These filters are universal in the fact they can perform the job of the standard filters but allow you to use water with higher sediment content. The 20-micron washable pre-filter prevents premature clogging up, followed by a 5 Micron Poly Spun, then a 0.5 Micron Coconut Carbon Block.


Hard Water Conditioning + 0.5 Micron Silver Coconut Carbon (For Mains + Potable Bore Water*)

First is a 5 Micron Washable Pleated Filter for sediment. Next, the gel-filled balls slowly release Poly Orthophosphate, which is a food-grade phosphate used extensively in the US to protect mains water lines from corrosion. In Australia, this technique is mostly used to encapsulate calcium and magnesium hardness preventing scale build-up in hot water services and heat exchanges. This works by coating the ions at the molecular level preventing the precipitation of these elements. Finally, an 0.5 Micron Silver Coconut Carbon for sweet-tasting water.


Heavy Sediment (Not for Drinking)

These filters are suitable for water that is visibly dirty and there are signs of heavy sediment. The pre-filter is a 100 Micron Mesh Strainer for easy washing/re-use. The secondary filter is a 20 micron washable also which should produce clear water and a final 5-micron polishing filter. These filters are ideal for tank filling or running the toilet. Additional filtration/sanitation is required for drinking.


***IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT WATER SANITATION***

Disclaimer: Do not use or drink microbiologically unsafe water or water of unknown quality without adequate disinfection.

FSA’s Recommendation for Caravans, Campervans + Travellers on Rain/Tank/Potable Bore Water*

If during your travels you will ever use Rain/Tank Water and Potable Bore Water (*i.e bore water that has been tested to the Australian Drinking Water Guidelines and deemed suitable for drinking purposes per the Guidelines’ aesthetic, health and safety recommendations), please see below our recommended filtration schedule to ensure safe drinking water:

  1. External Sediment + Carbon Pre-Filtration to Prevent Tank Clogging + Improve Initial Taste & Odour
  2. Tank Dose with HydroSil Ultra 7.5% for Protection Against Bacteria & Viruses
  3. Undersink <1 Micron Absolute Filter for Protection against Parasites & (Optional) Coconut Carbon for Improved Final Taste & Odour

Read on for a full explanation of why we recommend this as the minimum standard of filtration for treating Rain/Tank/Potable Bore Water for drinking purposes.

 

For Protection Against Bacteria/Viruses

Bacteria (such as E.Coli) can colonize in stagnant water and result in harmful illnesses when consumed.
For sanitation against common water-borne bacteria/viruses in rainwater and potable bore water*, we, therefore, recommend dosing your tank with a product such as Hydrosil Ultra 7.5% Water Sanitiser to ensure protection against microbiological contamination/biofouling in your pipework and/or filter system.

HydroSil is a food-grade silver and hydrogen-peroxide based water sanitiser, which acts to oxidise bacteria and viruses without leaving any dangerous residues behind. HydroSil sanitizes and protects your tanks and water storage devices, making rainwater and potable bore water* safe and suitable for human consumption. HydroSil is not a chlorine-based chemical like most sterilisers on the market today. It is non-toxic, and safe to use around your home and family.

Dosage Rate: HydroSil should be dosed at a rate of 200mL per 1000L of water.
To scale down to tank size, you will require 20mL per 100L.

For Protection Against Parasites/Protozoa

Ingesting waterborne parasites (Protozoan Cysts) such as Cryptosporidium and Giardia (which flourish in raw water sources such as rain water tanks and bores), are a common cause of gastroenteritis.

Whilst Chlorine can inactivate Giardia with a moderate dose and contact time, Chlorine has a negligible effect on Cryptosporidium unless dosed in excess of the acceptable Chlorine limit listed in the Australian Drinking Water Guidelines (Version 3.6, pp. 200).

For protection against these common cysts, we, therefore, recommend under sink filtration down to at least 1 Micron (Absolute) or smaller (i.e. with Reverse Osmosis or the Caware 0.1 Micron Absolute 3-in-1 Sediment, Chemical + Bacteria Reduction Filter). Please note: 0.1 Micron Filtration is NOT recommended for use with an External Caravan Filter System.

Such fine filtration, used along with regular sanitation (i.e. with HydroSil Ultra 7.5%) is a cost-effective and safe drinking water solution for rain water and potable bore water*, and is perfect for casual disinfection requirements such as when travelling in a caravan.
