The Importance of NSF Certifications

NSF International is an independent organization that tests and certifies products to verify they meet public health standards. For water systems, NSF certifications indicate a product’s reliability and safety. Among the numerous certification types, NSF 55 Class A, NSF 42, and NSF POE (Point of Entry Structural) are particularly noteworthy.

  • NSF 55 Class A: This certification is for UV water treatment systems designed to disinfect and remove harmful microorganisms in non-municipal water supplies. This class ensures that your system can reduce 99.99% of bacteria and viruses, offering a reliable barrier against microbiological contamination.
  • NSF 42: This standard applies to filtration systems that enhance the aesthetic quality of water by reducing chlorine, taste, and odour. A system certified under NSF 42 can improve the overall water experience without compromising safety.
  • NSF POE (Point of Entry Structural): This standard relates to certification for the whole system filtration and sterilisation as a system, including its build quality and suitability to be used at the point of entry for a commercial or residential building.

POE (Point of Entry Water Systems) in Auckland, New Zealand

Our POE (Point of Entry) water filtration systems are designed to filter water as it enters your home or building, ensuring clean water flows from every tap. POE systems are ideal for whole-house protection, treating water at the main supply line so that every drop is purified before it reaches your showers, sinks, or appliances. This type of system is particularly effective for comprehensive filtration and works in tandem with our NSF-certified NSF 55 Class A and NSF 42 water systems for maximum performance.

Certified Water Systems: Your Assurance of Quality

Using NSF certified water systems ensures that you are investing in a solution tested for quality and effectiveness. Certification means the system has met high standards for filtration, including the reduction of impurities such as sediment, chlorine, and other contaminants. With an NSF certified system, you receive dependable, verified performance and the peace of mind that comes from knowing your water is truly clean and free from bacteria.

Removing Chlorine and Fluoride Effectively 

Chlorine and fluoride are common additives in municipal water supplies. While they play a role in disinfection and dental health, some individuals prefer to remove these substances from their water for various health reasons. Our certified water systems are equipped to handle chlorine with under-bench systems for fine fluoride removal, ensuring your water remains pure and without unwanted additives. Whether you choose a POE system or a specific filtration unit certified under NSF 55 Class A or NSF 42, the removal of chlorine and fluoride helps create better-tasting water while maintaining high safety standards.

Can I install a system myself?

Yes, it comes with a full instruction manual, however we do advise that you have it checked and signed off by a registered master plumber.

Can these systems be installed outside?

We offer a variety of systems tailored for different applications, and according to plumbers, ours is the only truly 'outside compatible' option available.

Our systems feature an all-weather impervious alloy cover, ensuring durability. Additionally, the power supply is fully encased within its waterproof box, preventing moisture infiltration. We use Gel-filled ballasts to isolate the circuitry effectively.

Moreover, our systems come with added protection, including surge protectors and RCBOs. These features not only prevent electrical damage but also assist in identifying faults.

Does it need 240 Volts?

Yes, it has a UV lamp to kill the bacteria, which requires input voltage of between 110 to 240 volts, which is stepped up by the ballast to over 400 volts.

How long does the whole UV system last?

Depending on its location, the system should provide a minimum of 20 years of service. It's essential to understand the three component groups:

  1. Consumables: Includes seals and lamp cartridges, typically replaced every 6 to 12 months.
  2. Replaceables: Involves items like quartz sleeves, filter o-rings, power supply, and jumbo filters, which are typically replaced every 3 to 10 years.
  3. Durables: Long-lasting components such as backing boards, covers, chambers, brackets, and pipe fittings, designed to last up to 20 years.

Each component group plays a vital role in the system's functionality and longevity.

How much does it cost to install a filtration system?

Depending on where the system is to be installed and the type of connection piping used, it can be from as little as $250+GST.
