It treats the water at your kitchen tap for taste and odour, reduces heavy metals and other dissolved contaminants, and removes parasitic cysts down to 1 micron — all without a whole-house system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a point-of-use system. It treats drinking water at one tap, not your entire home supply. If you want filtered water at every tap including showers and laundry, a whole-house system is the right choice. If you want cleaner drinking and cooking water from your kitchen tap — without paying to filter water that goes to the toilet, garden, or shower — this is it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe kit includes the purifier, a dedicated drinking water faucet, and the installation kit with tubing. The purifier uses Quick Connect — when it's time to replace, the cartridge twists out and clicks back in with no tools required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow It Works\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eStage 1 — 10 Micron Filtration\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRemoves sediment including rust, grit, and algae if present in the supply.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eStage 2 — 1 Micron Premium Purifier Cartridge\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Premium purifier contains granulated activated carbon bonded with silver ion, plus KDF media.

The MPQCUBS is a point-of-use system — it treats water at one tap, not your whole house. That means you're not paying to filter water that goes to the toilet, garden, or shower. If you want filtered water at every tap, get in touch and we'll recommend the right whole-house system for your supply.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes it need to be installed by a plumber?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor anyone confident with this style of plumbing, the install is straightforward — the system arrives assembled and connects to your cold-water supply under the sink using the included tubing and fittings. The faucet will require a hole in the benchtop or sink. If you'd prefer to have it done, a plumber can fit it quickly. If you're not sure, get in touch and we'll help you decide.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does the Quick Connect system work?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen the purifier reaches the end of its service life, the cartridge twists out and clicks in with no tools. No housing spanner, no mess.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow long does the purifier last?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e3 years or 30,000 litres — whichever comes first. The sanitisation life of the Premium purifier is longer than the Standard version because the activated carbon is bonded with silver ion, which extends its effective life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat does the purifier reduce?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Premium purifier is designed to reduce chlorine, asbestos, pesticides, sulphur, aluminium, lead, and other heavy metals that may be dissolved in mains water. It has also been independently tested to remove 99.94% of Cryptosporidium cysts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I use this with rainwater or bore water?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe MPQCUBS Premium purifier is formulated for mains water. For rainwater, the Standard purifier (MSUBS or MSQCUBS) is the recommended option. Get in touch and we'll help you choose the right configuration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat's the difference between the Standard and Premium purifiers?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Standard purifier uses granulated activated carbon and is recommended for rainwater. It lasts 2 years or 10,000 litres. The Premium purifier adds silver ion bonding and KDF media for additional heavy metal reduction — it's designed for mains water and lasts 3 years or 30,000 litres.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat warranty comes with it?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1 year.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"background:#fff3cd;border:1px solid #ffc107;border-radius:8px;padding:16px;margin:20px 0;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 8px;font-weight:700;color:#856404;\"\u003e⚠️ Disclaimer – Collective \/ Dropship Product\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0;font-size:14px;color:#856404;\"\u003eThis product is supplied \u0026amp; shipped directly by the brand via Shopify Collective.
