Water Filtration Systems in East London
Whole-house multi-stage water filtration — sediment, carbon block and fine-micron filters on one wall-mounted rack.
Dirty, cloudy or bad-tasting water usually comes down to sediment and chlorine or organic taste and odour. We install whole-house filtration systems in East London homes — a wall-mounted rack of filter housings plumbed into the main supply, so every tap in the house gets filtered water, not just one under the sink.

Workmanship + manufacturer
Our standard setup is three stages in series. A 5-micron sediment filter catches sand, rust and silt first. A carbon block filter then reduces chlorine, taste and odour. A final 1-micron filter polishes out the fine particles that got past the first stage. Each stage is labelled on the mounting rack, so you always know which cartridge is which when it's time to change them.
Filtration works on municipal supply and on harvested rainwater. On a tank system it goes between the pump and the house, so water coming out of the tank is cleaned before it reaches your taps.
Housings are mounted on a rigid frame with inlet and outlet isolation valves, so cartridges can be swapped in minutes without shutting off the whole house for long.

Our Approach
Why Homeowners Choose Elite Home Finishes
We filter the whole house at the supply line, so showers, kitchen and bathroom taps all get the same clean water.
Every stage is labelled on the rack and fitted with isolation valves, which makes cartridge changes quick and foolproof.
We also install water tanks and pumps, so filtration on a rainwater system is planned into the same job rather than added as an afterthought.

Your Options
Options & Finishes to Choose From
3-stage whole-house system
Sediment, carbon block and 1-micron filters in series — our standard setup for municipal or tank water.
Tank water filtration
Fitted after the pressure pump on a rainwater tank system so harvested water is filtered before it enters the house.
Sediment pre-filter
A single sediment stage to protect geysers, taps and appliances from sand and rust where taste isn't a concern.
Cartridge replacement
Replacement sediment, carbon block and micron cartridges fitted on existing systems.

How Your Project Runs, Step by Step
Site visit
We look at your supply — municipal, tank or both — where the system can be mounted, and what you want the water for.
Itemised quote
A fixed price listing the housings, cartridges, rack, valves, fittings and labour.
Installation
Rack mounted, housings plumbed into the main line with isolation valves, and each stage labelled.
Test & hand-over
We flush the new cartridges, check for leaks and pressure, and show you how and when to change each filter.

Planning Your Project
What Affects Cost & Timeline
- ●Water source — municipal supply, a rainwater tank or both.
- ●Number of stages — sediment only, or full sediment, carbon and fine-micron filtration.
- ●Mounting position — the rack needs wall space near the main line with room to change cartridges.
- ●Flow rate — larger housings keep pressure up for bigger households.
- ●Cartridge changes — ongoing cost depends on how dirty the incoming water is.
Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
The 5-micron sediment stage catches sand, rust and silt. The carbon block stage reduces chlorine, taste and odour. The 1-micron stage removes finer particles. A standard 3-stage system like this doesn't disinfect water, so for untreated sources where bacteria are a concern, ask us about adding a disinfection stage.
