AquaCo Premium PFAS Whole House Water Filter – Supplied and Installed in Perth
The AquaCo Premium PFAS Three Stage Whole House Water Filter treats every tap and shower in your Perth home. It combines sediment and scale control, coconut-shell carbon and Disruptor PFAS filtration in large 20 × 4.5 inch cartridges, and is installed by our licensed Perth plumbers.
It is built for Perth households who want to cut chlorine taste and odour, reduce scale on fixtures and appliances, and add laboratory-tested filtration for PFOA and PFOS, without installing a salt-based water softener.

How the Three-Stage Filtration Works
Stage 1: ScaleStop Sediment Filter
A triple-gradient sediment cartridge traps sand, rust and silt. Its built-in ScaleStop media helps manage scale caused by the calcium and magnesium found in many Perth suburbs.
Stage 2: Coconut-Shell Carbon Block
A 5-micron activated carbon block reduces chlorine and the taste and smell that come with it.
Stage 3: Disruptor PFAS Filter
Catalytic carbon and an electrostatic membrane provide a further layer of filtration, backed by laboratory results for PFOA and PFOS.

PFAS Filtration You Can Verify
The Disruptor cartridge has been independently tested for PFOA and PFOS under set laboratory conditions. When comparing systems, check those conditions alongside capacity and flow rate. A result for a specific compound is not a guarantee that every contaminant is removed from every supply, and we are happy to explain the report in plain English.
Scale Control Without a Salt Softener
ScaleStop now sits inside the first sediment cartridge, so you get scale management and PFAS filtration in one system. It suits homes that want fewer white marks on taps and shower screens without the space and salt top-ups a water softener needs. If lowering hardness is your main goal, ask us to compare a dedicated softener.

Replacement Filters and Servicing
Replace all three cartridges every 12 to 18 months depending on your water and usage. Always match the exact system and cap type, because SuperSeal and standard flat-cap cartridges are not interchangeable. We stock genuine AquaCo replacement cartridges and can service the system for you.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does the AquaCo Premium PFAS filter remove PFAS from Perth scheme water?
The Disruptor stage uses catalytic carbon and an electrostatic membrane, and independent laboratory testing shows reduction of PFOA and PFOS under specified test conditions. Results depend on capacity, flow rate and your water, so no filter can promise removal of every contaminant from every supply. We can walk you through the lab report before you buy.
Will it remove fluoride from my water?
No. This whole-house system is not designed for fluoride reduction. If you want fluoride reduced in drinking and cooking water, we recommend adding an under-sink reverse osmosis system at the kitchen tap.
Can I use it on bore water or rainwater in Perth?
Yes, but only after a water test. Perth bore water often contains iron, manganese or other minerals, and rainwater tanks carry their own contamination risks. Send us recent test results so we can confirm the right configuration. Filtration alone should not be assumed to make untreated water safe to drink.
Will a whole house filter reduce my water pressure?
Some pressure drop is normal and depends on flow, cartridge condition and your plumbing. The system is rated to 60 litres per minute, which suits most Perth homes, and we size the installation to your number of bathrooms and peak use.
How often do the filter cartridges need replacing?
Most households replace the three cartridges every 12 to 18 months, or sooner with heavy use or poor water quality. The system is rated for up to 300,000 litres. Our licensed Perth plumbers can supply matching cartridges and handle the changeover for you.
Do you install whole house water filters in Perth?
Yes. Perth Plumbing Services supplies and installs this water filter system across the Perth metropolitan area, subject to a site assessment. Send us photos of your water meter connection and the proposed mounting spot, and we will confirm pipework, mounting and any extras before we quote.
