Our Tested and Proven Picks for Water Treatment Solutions in Adelaide

  • Bang for the buck: The prices of the water-softening equipment should be fair for its reliability, accessibility, and durability.
  • Customer service: We assessed how reliable their service is when it comes to answering queries and installing units within a specific timeframe. The way they answer and address concerns is also a factor.
  • Product quality: I found companies that provide equipment that are durable and dispense the best water quality. No one wants a flimsy water treatment system!
  • Range of services: We hand-picked ones that offer more than just filtration solutions and have other water treatment services.

Not all tap water is made safe for daily use; that’s why I want to guarantee that my water is purified and clean.

Ensuring my family’s health is a priority, so, besides hiring cleaning services, I took the time to find good water treatment solutions. I want to make sure that our water and surroundings are always clean for my young kids and pregnant wife.

I asked my trusted friends and tried some of these water treatment solutions to see which ones were good for my household.

Puratap is one of Australia’s leading water filter companies and has been purifying tap water since 1996. They also received a WaterMark Level 1 certification for their plumbing products, which means these comply with AS5200.00. 

For their customer service, their plumbers and experts are reliable and responsive. I called in a leak problem a while back, and they sent in a professional to deal with the damage quickly. I also appreciated the fact that the serviceman they sent in was friendly and mindful in my home.

However, a friend of a friend shared that they felt scammed when originally, Puratap said the filter only needed to be changed annually, but their answers differed when they called their service number. 

Pros

  • WaterMark Level 1 certified
  • Friendly customer service
  • Durable filtration system
  • On-time technicians
  • Clearer water results
  • Australian-made product

Cons

  • Pushy salespeople, too-frequent filter change calls
  • Some dishonest staff
  • Closed on weekends

Very efficient

Had a puratap installed this morning. The plumber Paul arrived right on time, and was delightful, and very efficient. Love the tap, and the water tastes so good.

I’m a very happy customer

Freshwater Systems has been around since 1991 and has been providing services to residential and commercial properties for 33 years! Ranging from homes to hospitals, it offers a wide range of customized water treatment solutions for different needs.

A buddy of mine highly recommends their whole house filtration. She said that her skin and hair felt so much better after they installed one of their units in her home. She has the fully automatic carbon filter, and she can’t imagine life without it!

However, I heard from one previous customer that their customer service took a while to answer. Their service is still overall good, but she said that a quick response would’ve been appreciated. 

Pros

  • Wide range of services
  • Helpful customer service
  • Decent price tag
  • Knowledgeable staff

Cons

  • Takes a day or more to answer concerns
  • Closed on weekends

Great work

Highly rate Joey and the team at Freshwater Systems. I needed to replace my drinking water filter system and I was provided excellent options, clearly explained for a fantastic price. The system I ended up going with was packed well, delivered quickly and works as expected. Great work team!

Adelaide Watersmart has provided water treatment services to institutions, commercial properties, and private homes for years—at a reasonable price, to boot! I also appreciate that they’re transparent and accommodating of their customers.

My sister can vouch for their services and the effectiveness of their water treatment system. She bought an undersink water purifier from them, and their servicemen were helpful with her concerns. She liked that they were friendly and polite while they were at her house.

However, a few customers complained that their website should be reworked to be more informative about the services and products they sell so they don’t have to call. Some people (like me) just don’t want to call companies to ask for specifics!

Pros

  • Knowledgeable staff on water concerns
  • Helpful customer service
  • Quick delivery and installation
  • Fair price

Cons

  • Poor website design needs more service information
  • Closed on weekends

Excellent work

Adelaide Watersmart do excellent work, very thorough and great service at a great price. Would definitely recommend them.

Pristine Water Systems in Adelaide Hills has been providing water purification services that span from sanitizing water tanks to UV water systems since 2003. They also offer free on-site inspection to recommend the right water treatment service for you.

I asked one of their patrons about their services, and they were happy with their work. Their customer service was helpful, servicemen were skilled in installation and repairs, and their prices were decent. Sounds like he’s quite happy with their service!

However, the only gripe he shared was that the business is closed during weekends. If there are emergency repairs on a Saturday, you have to wait for Monday to come around.

Pros

  • Free on-site inspection
  • No changes in water pressure
  • Gives ideal service recommendations
  • Friendly staff
  • In-field water testing service

Cons

  • Closed on weekends

Helpful

I would really recommend Pristine Water Systems friendly, helpful & easy to deal with. Loads of information on what you need to be doing with your tanks & filter system.

Exceptionally knowledgeable

We recently enlisted Paul’s services to clean our tank and install a UV filtration system. We were thoroughly impressed with his expertise and professionalism. Paul is not only friendly and approachable, but also exceptionally knowledgeable in his field. He demonstrated great attention to detail in his work, ensuring that everything was done to the highest standard. He can communicate complex processes in a clear and understandable manner, making the entire experience hassle-free. His dedication to customer satisfaction was evident throughout, making him a standout choice for anyone needing similar services.

From under-sink water filtration systems to sparkling water taps, Purifiers Australia has installed residential and commercial water systems for over 35 years. 

They want to ensure their customer’s safety, so they made sure their products are certified for AS/NZS 3497:1998 (Australian/New Zealand Standard™ Drinking water treatment units – Plumbing requirements) and AS/NZS 4348 (Australian Standard™ Water supply – Domestic).

A friend of a friend bought a SPARK L PURE system from them, and they were satisfied with their services. The customer service was responsive, and the servicemen assigned to them were helpful with common concerns. He was amazed that they finished earlier than expected.

Despite the glowing review from that friend, a customer shared that they received a defective product from them. She was shocked that they didn’t believe her and urged her to pay for returns. It’s definitely an aspect they need to fix!

Pros

  • Certified AS/NZS 3497:1998 and AS/NZS 4348
  • Used in over 40 countries
  • 35 years of service
  • Fair price
  • Helpful servicemen
  • Polite customer service

Cons

  • Closed on weekends
  • Some staff are not accommodating
  • Hassle return experience
