Hi Team,
I have 2 questions about water filtration, please:
- All of my water comes from my rain tank, which is fed by both rain water off the roof, and unfiltered river water via a local community system. At minimum, I'd like to install a filter under the kitchen sink which would filter both hot and cold pipes, and deliver the filtered water out of my Mondella Matte Black Rumba Side lever Sink Mixer. I saw a post where @EricL suggested the Stefani Twin Undersink Water Filtration System and with good information around why it was suggested. Sadly, this unit has a poor rating due to flooding etc., so I'll pass on that one. Is there another filter unit you'd suggest, be it single or twin cartridge?
- The second question is around filtering the water either out of the tank before the pump, or out of the pump before entering the house. This would filter all water entering the house including the toilet, shower and vanity. As an extra curve ball to consider, I'm about to have a garden tap installed post pump so I may access a pressurised hose to fight fires with (Nymboida area), and of course this needs to be max flow, no filtration required unless it's a particularly fussy fire. This makes me lean towards a filter post pump and before the house as the ideal location (and would exclude the garden hose). Could you please suggest a filter which could be utilised here? If it helps, all of the piping from the pump onward is standard copper the same as what's used within the house, so perhaps a couple of threads could be cut and mounted allowing me to simply install a filter easily, similar to the under sink kitchen unit.
I hope all this makes sense. Apologies if it's confusing. It makes sense in my head!
Thanks in anticipation,
Jason
