Pick the water filter that suits your home
Most people start looking for a water filter because the tap water tastes or smells of chlorine. The right filter depends on where you want filtered water and how much work you want to do to get it.
A filter jug or a gravity filter needs no tools at all. You fill it, wait, and pour. A tap filter or a shower filter screws on by hand in a few minutes, which makes it a good pick for renters.
What these filters are for
Every filter here is made for water that is already safe to drink, such as town water. They are designed to improve taste and smell and to catch sediment. They are not a treatment for unsafe water, so if your supply is untested, have it tested and get advice first.
Remember the cartridges
Every filter has a cartridge that wears out. Each product page gives the maker's guide for how long a cartridge lasts. Put a reminder in your phone on the day you fit it, because an old cartridge stops doing its job.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which water filter is easiest to set up?
A filter jug. Rinse it, fit the cartridge, fill it at the tap and it is ready.
Do these filters make unsafe water safe to drink?
No. They are made for water that is already drinkable, such as town water. If your supply is untested, have it tested and get advice before you rely on any filter.
How often do I change the cartridge?
It depends on the filter and how much water you use. Each product page gives the maker's guide.
I rent. Which filters can I use?
Any filter here that is not plumbed in. They do not change the plumbing, and you can take them with you when you move.
Does a gravity filter need power?
No. You pour water into the top chamber and gravity pulls it through the filter into the bottom chamber.
Will a tap filter fit my kitchen tap?
Check the product page for the fittings and adapters included and compare them with your tap before you order.
Will the inline fridge filter fit my fridge?
It suits fridges that use an external filter on the water line behind the fridge. It does not replace a cartridge that sits inside the fridge.
Does the reverse osmosis unit need plumbing?
No. It is a stand-alone benchtop unit. You fill its tank and plug it in.
