Installation

RESIDENTIAL / COUNCIL MAINS

All installations are done by plumbers independent of KP Water. In most cases the job is straight forward and any reputable qualified plumber can do the installation.

Placement of the filtration unit will depend on the house configuration. Best to talk to the plumber about your options. The unit can sit outside or inside as long as it is first in line from the boundary. There is also a galvanised cover option (10" only) if you wanted to hide the filters. The cover can be painted to match your fence or house.

 

Indicative costs

Most customers will pay between $300-$600 for an installation however if the complexity is such the installation could be up to $1000. One of the aspects that can increase the cost is digging into the ground to find the mains pipe. Because each house is different we can not advise as to what it will cost. 

What is included

All the hardware required to install the system is included in the package including:
- 2 filters and housings
- Stainless steel top cap to hold the filters and attach the unit to the house, fence, etc
- 2 taps for turning off the flow when changing filters
