Choosing a cartridge
20 micron pleated sediment
Removes sand, grit, rust, and coarse particles. High flow, cleanable and reusable. A good choice for tank water or as a pre-filter in a multi-stage setup.
1 micron polyspun sediment
Removes fine silt, dust, and rust particles. Ideal for polishing water to clarity before a drinking tap or appliance.
5 micron carbon block
Removes chlorine taste, odour, and organic compounds. The right choice for town supply where taste and smell are the concern.

FAQ
What size cartridges does this housing take?
It takes 10" standard cartridges — 2.5" (63.5mm) outside diameter. Jumbo cartridges (4.5" diameter) will not fit. If you need higher flow or longer cartridge life, the 10" jumbo housing (W10J25MM) may suit better.
What's the difference between the W10PR and the jumbo housings?
The W10PR is a standard format — smaller diameter cartridges, lower flow capacity, ideal for a single tap or underbench point-of-use setup. Jumbo housings take larger cartridges and are better suited to whole-house or high-demand applications.
What does WaterMark certification mean?
WaterMark (WMTS-103, Lic. 032114) means the housing has been independently tested and certified to meet NZ and Australian plumbing standards. It's a mandatory certification for plumbing products in NZ and Australia.
What does AS/NZS 4020 mean?
It means the housing has been tested for use in contact with drinking water — covering the materials used and their effect on water quality.
Does it come with a cartridge?
The housing is available with or without a cartridge. Select from the dropdown — housing only, or housing with your preferred 10" standard cartridge.
Why does it have a pressure relief valve?
The pressure relief valve releases pressure from the housing before you unscrew the bowl. Press it, hear the hiss, then unscrew — safe and splash-free.
How often do I need to change the cartridge?
It depends on the cartridge type and your water quality. Most cartridges are replaced every 6–12 months. A drop in flow rate or pressure is usually the first sign it's time.
Do I need a plumber to install it?
It connects via standard 20mm (¾") BSP female thread fittings. Most customers install these themselves under the bench. If you're unsure, a plumber can do it quickly.
What warranty applies?
The housing carries a 1-year warranty. Cartridges are consumable items and are not covered by warranty, but get in touch if anything arrives damaged or defective.
