About Water Filtration Installation in Southern Suburbs

Clean, safe drinking water is not something you should take for granted, even with treated municipal water. Chlorine taste, sediment, and occasional contamination events affect water quality in many South African areas including Southern Suburbs. Abacas Solution installs professional water filtration systems that give you confidence in the water your family drinks, cooks with, and bathes in.

We install several types of filtration systems depending on your needs and budget. Whole-house systems filter all water entering your home, protecting appliances and plumbing as well as providing clean water at every tap. Under-sink systems provide purified drinking water at a dedicated tap in your kitchen. We also install inline filters for fridges with water dispensers and ice makers.

Our filtration options include sediment filters for particulate removal, carbon block filters for chlorine and chemical removal, and multi-stage systems that combine several filter types for comprehensive purification. For properties using borehole water in Southern Suburbs, we can install systems that address iron, manganese, and bacterial contamination specific to groundwater sources. Every installation includes proper isolation valves, bypass options for filter changes, and we provide guidance on filter replacement schedules to keep your system performing at its best.

This is one of several specialist services we offer under water systems & pressure in Southern Suburbs. As part of our Southern Suburbs plumbing team, we bring over 25 years of hands-on experience to every job.

Frequently Asked Questions

What type of water filter do I need for my home in Southern Suburbs?

It depends on your water source and concerns. For municipal water in Southern Suburbs, a carbon block filter removes chlorine taste and common chemicals. If you notice sediment or discolouration, add a sediment pre-filter. For borehole water, you likely need a multi-stage system addressing iron, manganese, and bacteria. We assess your specific situation and recommend the right system.

How often do water filters need to be replaced?

Most residential filters need replacement every 6-12 months depending on water quality and usage. Sediment pre-filters may need changing every 3-6 months in areas with high particulate levels. We provide a replacement schedule specific to your system and can supply filters on an ongoing basis for your Southern Suburbs property.

Is a whole-house filter worth the investment in Southern Suburbs?

A whole-house filter protects your entire plumbing system, appliances, geysers, and fixtures from sediment and chemical damage, in addition to providing cleaner water at every tap. It extends the life of washing machine valves, dishwashers, and geyser elements. For Southern Suburbs properties with noticeable sediment or chlorine, it is a worthwhile investment that pays for itself in appliance longevity.

Can you install a filter for borehole water in Southern Suburbs?

Yes, we install borehole water treatment systems that address common groundwater contaminants in the Southern Suburbs area including iron, manganese, hardness, and bacteria. These systems typically include sediment filtration, iron removal, carbon filtration, and UV sterilisation. We recommend a water test first to identify the specific contaminants present.
