under bench water filters

Underbench Systems

Located neatly under your sink, an under bench water filter gives you plenty of clean tasting water for drinking and food preparation.

We have four models of under bench water filters for you to choose from depending on what type of impurities you want removed from your water and to what extent you want your water filtered down to.

The first three underbench models come with a choice of taps, the new stainless steel one being the most popular. Please see our designer taps.

Inline systems can be fitted to existing taps, though there may be a pressure reduction in the cold water supply. Taps with hot, cold and filtered outlets are available.

We also install as standard Pressure Reducing Valves on all our underbench filters. We are also upgrading any clients who haven’t got one as we are finding interesting things happening with the water pressure increasing on town water supply.

If you want filtered water at the bathroom basin as well, an additional filter can be fitted in cabinet below the basin. There are a lot of modern designs which prevent us from installing underbench filters, so if you want filtered water throughout the house look at the whole house water filter page.

KDF/GAC Under bench Water Filtration

This underbench water filter is the best performing filter on the market for all-round chemical and heavy metal removal combining the twin technologies of KDF with GAC - Granular Activated Carbon

Benefits are:

• Tastes just like bottled water

• Removes heavy metals
• Most commonly used underbench filter
• Made in the USA
• Filters usually last 2 years

KDF/GAC Filters Remove:
KDF is a media of high purity copper-zinc formulations. These substances exchange electrons or bond with chlorine and other metals contained in the water to create harmless substances more on KDF

KDF reduces levels of most heavy metals including:
• Lead • Copper • Aluminium • Arsenic • Mercury • Iron etc.

Note: KDF is not required usually required for tank water as the water should not be contaminated with heavy metals

• Chlorine • Chemicals • Pesticides • TTHM’s • Sediment

Solid Carbon Block Water Filters

These filters are really good and we have hundreds of clients using them. They have been the standard underbench filter for many years now and have proven themselves as a great way to remove chlorine and chemicals from your water.

Benefits are:

• Tastes just like bottled water
• Removes chlorine and its carcinogens (not fluoride)
• Filters are made in the USA
• More traditional style underbench filter.
• Filters usually last 12 months

Inline Underbench Water Filter

Any of the three types of system listed above can be used with the inline system. Instead of having a separate tap, the inline underbench water filter is plumbed into the existing tap or a new unit with an additional filter tap.

Benefits are:

• As above
• No need to drill through bench top to install so it is suitable for granite and stone benchtops
• A single tap unit looks less cluttered

If we are plumbing into a standard hot and cold tap unit, there may be a reduction in flow rate on the cold water as the pressure of water in the filter unit has to be reduced. This can be overcome by using a new 3 way tap which has a filtered water lever on it.
