What is a standard installation?Our home filtration systems are designed for straightforward installation. In a standard setup, the system is easily affixed to a wall or fence with convenient access to the water mains. This ensures minimal disruption and quick setup by a qualified plumber. Our standard installation is based on easily accessible 20mm copper pipe. We have also assumed that the unit will be installed within 5 meters from the water meter and up against an existing wall. Outside these conditions the installation may need to be assessed separately in order to provide the additional cost. This is not necessarily complex but not standard either, thus the requirement for further assessment. Furthermore, The maximum operating pressure of our system is 6bar. If the mains pressure is greater than 6 bar, our plumber will need to install a pressure reducing valve at an additional cost.
