Clean, safe drinking water is essential for every household. While Perth’s tap water meets Australian safety standards, many homeowners are discovering the advantages of installing water filtration systems. At Lakeside Plumbing & Gas, our residential plumbers have helped many Joondalup families improve their water quality through professional filtration solutions.
Why Consider Water Filtration?
Perth’s water supply contains various additives and naturally occurring minerals. While these aren’t harmful, they can affect taste, odour, and potentially impact your plumbing fixtures over time.
A quality water filtration system offers several key benefits:
- Removes chlorine, sediment and contaminants
- Improves taste and odour
- Reduces scale buildup in pipes and appliances
- Provides cleaner water for cooking and drinking
- Eliminates the need for bottled water
Health and Well-Being Advantages
Filtered water can make a noticeable difference to your family’s health and daily life. Many of our customers report that filtered water:
- Tastes significantly better, encouraging family members to drink more water throughout the day. This improved hydration supports overall health and well-being.
- Contains fewer chemicals like chlorine, which some people find irritating to sensitive skin or respiratory systems.
- Reduces exposure to potential contaminants that may be present in tap water, giving you peace of mind about what your family consumes.
Environmental and Financial Benefits
Installing a water filtration system is also an environmentally responsible choice. By filtering your tap water, you’ll:
- Dramatically reduce plastic waste from bottled water purchases. The average Australian family using bottled water generates hundreds of plastic bottles annually.
- Save money in the long run compared to buying bottled water. The initial investment in a quality filtration system typically pays for itself within months.
- Extend the lifespan of your plumbing fixtures and appliances by reducing scale buildup and mineral deposits.
Types of Water Filtration Systems
We install several types of filtration systems to meet different household needs:
Under-sink filters provide filtered water directly from a dedicated tap at your sink, ideal for drinking and cooking water.
Whole-house filtration systems treat all water entering your home, ensuring every tap delivers filtered water for bathing, laundry, and other uses.
Reverse osmosis systems offer the most comprehensive filtration, removing even microscopic contaminants for the purest possible water.
Professional Installation Matters
While DIY filter options exist, professional installation ensures your system:
- Works correctly from day one
- Integrates properly with your existing plumbing
- Meets local plumbing codes and standards
- Receives proper maintenance for optimal performance
Our licensed plumbers can assess your home’s specific needs and recommend the ideal filtration solution for your family.
