Can You Trust Your Building’s Pipes?

Just because your city treats the water doesn’t mean your glass is clean.

In Australia, tap water is disinfected and monitored at the treatment plant — but what happens between there and your kitchen is often overlooked.

For most city dwellers, the journey from plant to glass includes old copper pipes, legacy plumbing, corroded solder, and multi-residential building systems that haven’t been upgraded in decades.

The result?

• Heavy metals like lead and copper leaching into water

• Bacteria growth in poorly maintained tanks

• Discoloured or stale-tasting water due to ageing infrastructure

• “Safe” levels of chlorine and sediment that build up over time

That’s why many Australians — particularly in apartments, older homes, and rentals — are choosing to filter water after the tap. Not because they don’t trust the utility, but because they don’t trust everything in between.

Reverse osmosis filtration is one of the few ways to remove microscopic contaminants that standard filters and jug systems miss. It gives you control over the final step — where it actually matters.

You can’t change your building’s plumbing. But you can take ownership of your bench.
