Water Testing
Sometimes people complain that the water is turning their bath blue – a sign of water with too high acidity. Or it may be turning the bath brown, a sign of iron deposits.
Before selling you anything, About Water will recommend a laboratory for testing and we will get a comprehensive report on the problem. This means customers are not wasting their money on hit-or-miss cures. A scientific diagnosis is made so the right filtration system can be installed. Specialising in lifestyle blocks for untreated water, iron acidity and coliform.
Rob Mason of About Water is a professional who is dedicated to providing all his customers with the purist water possible.
Servicing & Maintenance
We replace cartridges (fit it for free) with purchases of our own catridges within the Whakatane, EBOP, Rotorua and Taupo area.
Regularly replacing your water filter cartridges will ensure your filter is providing you the best quality water available and will help avoid any build up that may affect your water quality.
Not sure if your filter needs changing? Give the About Water team a call and we can help you find out.
Contact us to have your water filter cartridges replaced.
