Enjoy cleaner, safer water throughout your entire home—discover the benefits of a Whole House Water Filter in Melbourne today!
Is your tap water really as clean as it should be? Many Melbourne households rely on municipal water, but that doesn’t mean it’s free from contaminants. A whole house water filter ensures every tap in your home delivers clean and safe water for cooking, bathing, and everyday use.
At MGR Plumbing, we specialise in whole house water filtration systems tailored to Melbourne’s unique water conditions. Our high-quality filters remove chlorine, sediment, heavy metals, and other harmful contaminants—giving you peace of mind, better-tasting water, and protection for your plumbing and appliances.
Before jumping into any big home upgrade, it’s natural to weigh up the pros and cons. A whole house water filter is a smart choice—but only when it suits your home and lifestyle.
Start by considering your water quality. Are you noticing strange odours, staining, or residue from your taps and appliances? These are signs your home could benefit from filtration. Next, think about system size and capacity—different households have different water usage needs, and the right system should match yours without compromising flow rate or pressure.
You’ll also want to think about maintenance. While most systems are low-maintenance, some filters need replacing every 6–12 months to stay effective. And of course, installation matters. At MGR Plumbing, we make the process hassle-free with expert advice and professional installation, ensuring you get the right setup for your home without the guesswork.
Got questions? We’re here to walk you through every step.
Melbourne’s water supply is treated, but it still contains chlorine, sediment, and other contaminants that affect water quality. Here’s why a whole-house water filtration system is a comprehensive solution for your home:
Chlorinated unfiltered water can dry out your skin and hair, leading to irritation. A water filtration system removes these irritants, leaving your skin and hair healthier.
Melbourne's town water may contain dirt, rust, and bacteria that can build up in pipes and home appliances. A filtration system removes these particles for clean water throughout your home.
Hard water causes scale buildup, reducing the efficiency of your water heater and other water-using appliances. A whole house water filtration system protects your plumbing and appliances.
For children, elderly family members, or those with sensitive immune systems, filtered water removes other contaminants that could affect their health.
A whole-house water filter is a filtration system installed at your home’s main water supply. This means every tap in your house—kitchen, bathroom, laundry—delivers filtered water. Unlike under-sink filters that only treat drinking water, a whole-house system removes impurities before they reach your taps, showerheads, and water-using appliances.
A whole house water filtration system cleans your water supply before it reaches any tap in your home. Here’s how the filtration process works:
Water first passes through a sediment filter, which removes dirt, rust, and sand. This protects your plumbing and appliances from buildup.
Next, the water flows through a carbon filter, which is effective for removing chlorine, chemicals, and bad odours, improving water quality and taste.
Depending on your system, this stage may include:
The purified water is now free from unwanted contaminants and flows through your whole house plumbing system, providing clean and safe water for drinking, cooking, and washing.
Not all house water filters are the same. When choosing whole house water filter systems in Melbourne, consider these key factors:
Melbourne’s water supply may contain chlorine, sediment, heavy metals, and bacteria. Testing your water helps determine the best filtration options for your home.
Are you concerned about heavy metals, bacteria, and other contaminants? Different water filtration systems target different impurities.
Your filter system should match your household’s demand. Larger homes need a higher flow rate to maintain water pressure.
All filters need replacing eventually. Some systems require replacement filters or replacement cartridges more often than others.
From basic sediment filters to advanced purification systems, costs vary. Consider quality products and ongoing maintenance expenses.

A whole house water filter is a system that cleans the water before it reaches any tap in your home. It removes dirt, chlorine, chemicals, and other unwanted contaminants, so you get cleaner water for drinking, showering, cooking, and washing. The system connects to your main water supply, filtering water as it enters your home.
A kitchen filter is great for drinking water, but a whole house system ensures all the water in your home is filtered—including the water you shower in and use for washing clothes. This helps reduce exposure to chlorine and other chemicals, which can affect skin, hair, and appliances.
It depends on your water quality, household size, and what you want to filter out. We can assess your water and recommend the best system based on your needs, whether it's removing chlorine, sediment, or other contaminants. Some homes need a simple carbon filter, while others may require more advanced filtration.
This depends on the type of system you have and how much water your household uses. Most filters need replacing every 6 to 12 months, but some last longer. We'll let you know the maintenance schedule for your specific system and can help with filter replacements when needed.
A properly installed system shouldn't cause noticeable drops in water pressure. We make sure the system is correctly sized for your home so you get clean water without sacrificing strong water flow. If water pressure ever becomes an issue, it's usually a sign the filter needs replacing.
A standard whole house water filter removes chlorine and contaminants, but it won't soften hard water. If you have hard water, we can install a water softener alongside your filtration system to help prevent scale buildup in pipes and appliances.
Most standard filters don't remove fluoride, but we can install a system that does. If fluoride removal is important to you, we'll recommend the right type of filter for your needs. Reverse osmosis and special fluoride filters are the best options for this.
Not at all—when installed by a professional. We take care of the entire process, from selecting the right system to fitting it seamlessly into your plumbing. Our goal is to make the installation as smooth and hassle-free as possible.
We don't recommend it unless you have plumbing experience. Installing a filtration system involves cutting into the main water line, ensuring the right water pressure, and securing proper connections. A professional installation ensures everything is done safely and correctly.
Not much, but regular upkeep is important. The main thing is replacing the filters on time so they keep working properly. Some systems also need occasional servicing. We offer ongoing maintenance and filter replacement services to keep your system running smoothly.
