We are a group of skilled plumbing professionals trained to install and maintain various types of water filtration systems. Water filters are used to remove impurities and contaminants from drinking water, providing clean and safe water for household use. 

Our role in water filter installation typically involves assessing the water quality and determining the appropriate type of filter for the specific needs of the household or commercial building. We then install the filtration system, which may include point of-use filters installed on individual faucets, whole-house filters installed at the main water supply line, or reverse osmosis systems that remove contaminants through a semi-permeable membrane. 

In addition to installation, EKORP Plumbing specialises in performing routine maintenance tasks such as replacing filters, cleaning sediment, and checking for leaks or other issues.

 Overall, we seek to ensure that clean and safe water filters are installed in households and commercial buildings. By installing and maintaining water filtration systems, we endeavour to help improve the quality of life for those they serve.

Understanding Residential Water Filtration Options

Clean, safe drinking water is essential for every household. Our experienced team helps homeowners select and maintain the right filtration solution for their specific needs.

Types of Home Water Filtration Systems

Different filtration technologies address various water quality concerns:

Carbon Filtration Systems

These popular filters use activated carbon to remove chlorine, organic compounds, and unpleasant tastes and odours. Our water filter maintenance service ensures these systems continue performing effectively by replacing cartridges at recommended intervals.

Sediment Filtration

These systems trap physical particles like sand, silt, and rust. When your water appears cloudy or discoloured, our water filter repair technicians can install and service these essential pre-filters that protect both your plumbing and more advanced filtration systems.

Reverse Osmosis Systems

These comprehensive purification systems force water through a semi-permeable membrane to remove up to 99% of contaminants. Our reverse osmosis system service includes membrane inspection, filter changes, and pressure checks to maintain optimal performance.

Ultraviolet (UV) Purification

These systems use UV light to neutralise harmful microorganisms. Our water purifier repair experts can integrate these with other filtration methods for comprehensive protection.

Water Quality Concerns in Sydney Homes

Sydney water can present specific challenges requiring tailored filtration solutions:

Chlorine Treatment

Sydney's water is treated with chlorine for safety, but many homeowners prefer its removal for better taste and reduced chemical exposure. Our water filter maintenance includes regular carbon filter replacement to ensure continued chlorine reduction.

Sediment Variation

Depending on your specific location and plumbing age, sediment levels can vary significantly. Our water filter repair services include cleaning sediment filters to prevent clogging and maintain flow rates.

Hard Water Minerals

Some areas experience mineral content that can affect appliance efficiency and leave residue. Our specialists can recommend and maintain appropriate filtration systems to address hardness concerns.

Seasonal Fluctuations

Water quality can change with weather patterns and reservoir conditions. Our reverse osmosis water filter service adapts to these changes through regular system optimisation.

Professional Water Filter Installation Process

Proper installation ensures optimal performance and longevity of your water filtration system.

Assessment and System Selection

Our thorough approach begins with understanding your specific needs:

Water Quality Testing

Before recommending any system, we analyse your water supply to identify specific contaminants requiring filtration. This crucial step ensures you don't invest in unnecessary filtration components.

Household Usage Evaluation

We assess your water consumption patterns, number of occupants, and specific usage requirements to recommend appropriately sized systems that won't restrict flow or require excessive maintenance.

Space Assessment

Our water filter installation experts evaluate available space for system placement, ensuring accessibility for future water filter maintenance while maintaining aesthetic considerations.

Budget Consultation

We provide transparent information about initial costs, ongoing maintenance requirements, and potential long-term savings of different filtration options.

Comprehensive Maintenance Services

Regular maintenance extends system life and ensures continued water quality.

Routine Water Filter Maintenance Programmes

Our scheduled service plans keep your system performing optimally:

Filter Replacement Schedules

Different filter components require replacement at various intervals. Our water filter maintenance programmes track these requirements and provide timely service before performance deteriorates.

System Sanitisation

For certain systems, particularly reverse osmosis, periodic sanitisation prevents bacterial growth. Our reverse osmosis system maintenance includes this critical procedure at recommended intervals.

Performance Testing

Regular water quality testing verifies your system continues to remove targeted contaminants effectively. Our technicians adjust or upgrade components as needed based on these results.

Preventative Inspections

Our water purifier repair specialists check for signs of wear, pressure issues, or potential leaks before they develop into problems requiring emergency service.

Professional Reverse Osmosis System Service

These advanced systems require specialised maintenance:

Membrane Evaluation

The heart of any reverse osmosis system is its semi-permeable membrane. Our reverse osmosis water filter service includes assessment of membrane condition and performance.

Pre-Filter Maintenance

Effective pre-filtration protects the expensive RO membrane. Our reverse osmosis system maintenance programme includes timely replacement of sediment and carbon pre-filters.

Tank Cleaning

Storage tanks can develop biofilm over time. Our comprehensive service includes periodic tank sanitisation to maintain water purity.

Pressure Adjustments

Correct pressure is critical for reverse osmosis performance. Our technicians check and adjust pressure settings during each reverse osmosis system service visit.

Water Filter Repair and Troubleshooting

Even well-maintained systems occasionally require repair. Our experienced technicians quickly diagnose and resolve common issues.

Common Water Filter Problems

We efficiently address typical filtration system issues:

Reduced Water Flow

When your system produces less water than normal, our water filter repair service can identify whether the cause is clogged filters, pressure problems, or other factors.

Strange Tastes or Odours

If your filtered water develops unusual tastes or smells, our water purifier repair specialists can determine whether filter replacement, sanitisation, or system adjustments are needed.

Leaking Connections

Our technicians quickly locate and repair leaks at filter housings, fittings, or tubing connections before they cause property damage or reduce system efficiency.

Unusual Noises

Gurgling, hammering, or other sounds from your filtration system often indicate air in the lines or pressure issues that our water filter repair experts can promptly resolve.

Specialised Reverse Osmosis Troubleshooting

These complex systems can develop specific issues:

Tank Refill Problems

Slow tank refilling often indicates membrane fouling or flow restrictor issues. Our reverse osmosis water filter service includes comprehensive diagnosis of these specialised components.

Continuous Drain Flow

When waste water continues flowing, it typically indicates auto shut-off valve problems. Our reverse osmosis system maintenance includes repair or replacement of these critical components.

Cloudy Water

This symptom often signals air in the system or filtration issues requiring professional attention from our reverse osmosis system service specialists.

TDS Fluctuations

Rising Total Dissolved Solids readings typically indicate membrane performance issues that our water purifier repair technicians can assess and resolve.

Health Benefits of Properly Maintained Water Filters

Well-maintained filtration systems provide significant health advantages beyond improved taste.

Contaminant Removal Benefits

Effective filtration addresses numerous health concerns:

Chemical Reduction

Properly maintained carbon filters remove chlorine, pesticides, and other chemicals that can affect taste and potentially impact health. Regular water filter maintenance ensures continued effective reduction of these substances.

Heavy Metal Filtration

Systems with appropriate media can reduce lead, mercury, and other metals from older plumbing or environmental sources. Our water purifier repair service verifies these critical functions remain effective.

Microorganism Protection

Some advanced systems reduce bacteria, viruses, and cysts that can cause illness. Our reverse osmosis system maintenance ensures these protective capabilities remain functional.

Pharmaceutical Residue Reduction

Advanced filtration can help reduce trace pharmaceuticals increasingly found in water supplies. Regular reverse osmosis water filter service maintains this important protective function.

Quality of Life Improvements

Beyond health protection, properly maintained filters enhance daily life:

Taste Enhancement

Regular water filter maintenance ensures your water remains pleasant-tasting, encouraging proper hydration essential for overall health.

Appliance Protection

Filtered water extends the life of coffee makers, kettles, and other appliances. Our water filter repair service helps maintain this protective benefit.

Reduced Bottled Water Dependency

Reliable home filtration eliminates the need for expensive, environmentally problematic bottled water. Our maintenance programmes ensure continued confidence in your tap water.

Skin and Hair Benefits

Filtered shower water can reduce chlorine exposure that dries skin and hair. Our water purifier repair experts can maintain shower filtration systems as well.

Frequently Asked Questions About Water Filters

Common questions about our water filter services

How often should I schedule professional water filter maintenance for my home system?

Most residential water filters require professional maintenance every 6-12 months, depending on water quality and usage volume. Carbon filters typically need replacement every 6 months, while reverse osmosis membranes generally last 2-3 years with proper pre-filtration. Our water filter maintenance programme provides customised schedules based on your specific system and water conditions.

Warning signs include: reduced water flow or pressure; unusual tastes or odours returning to your water; visible particles in filtered water; unusual noises from the system; leaks around filter housings or connections; or dramatically increased water bills (possibly indicating continuous running). Contact our water filter repair specialists promptly if you notice any of these symptoms.

Key indicators include: increasing TDS (Total Dissolved Solids) readings when measured with a meter; noticeably changed water taste; slower tank refill times; or the membrane reaching its rated lifespan (typically 2-5 years depending on water quality and usage). Our reverse osmosis water filter service includes membrane performance testing to determine precise replacement timing.

Our comprehensive reverse osmosis system maintenance includes: replacement of pre and post-filters; membrane inspection and testing; storage tank pressurisation check; system sanitisation; flow restrictor and auto shut-off valve checking; leak inspection; drain line cleaning; and water quality verification. This thorough service ensures optimal system performance and extended membrane life.

In many cases, professional water filter repair can resolve discoloured or cloudy water issues without system replacement. Common causes include: exhausted filter media requiring replacement; channelling within filters; bacteria growth requiring sanitisation; or mineral buildup that can be cleaned. Our technicians diagnose the specific cause and recommend the most cost-effective solution.

During our water filter maintenance visits, a technician will: test your incoming and filtered water quality; replace scheduled filter cartridges; check system pressure and flow rates; inspect all connections for leaks; sanitise appropriate components; verify drain connections; test shutoff valve functionality; and make any necessary adjustments. The appointment typically takes 30-60 minutes depending on system complexity.

Standard reverse osmosis systems typically require professional reverse osmosis water filter service every 6 months for pre-filter and post-filter replacement, with membrane inspection. Annual service should include complete system sanitisation. More frequent service may be necessary for households with high usage, poor incoming water quality, or systems without TDS monitors to alert to performance changes.

Our water purifier repair for UV systems includes: lamp replacement (typically annual); quartz sleeve cleaning or replacement; O-ring inspection and replacement; ballast testing; flow sensor verification; filter replacements for associated pre-filtration; and system sanitisation. We also verify proper electrical connections and controller functionality to ensure continuous protection.

Professional reverse osmosis system maintenance offers significant advantages over DIY approaches: technicians have specialised tools to properly sanitise systems; can perform accurate membrane performance testing; have access to genuine replacement parts; can identify developing problems early; and ensure work complies with plumbing codes. The cost savings from extended membrane life and prevented water damage generally outweigh the service expense.

Between professional water filter maintenance visits, homeowners can: monitor water taste, odour, and appearance; check for visible leaks; replace simple countertop filter cartridges following manufacturer instructions; keep external surfaces clean; protect outdoor components from freezing; and maintain records of filter changes. However, internal system sanitisation and complex filter replacements are best left to professional water purifier repair technicians.
