Chlorine taste and smell
Perth tap water is treated with chlorine to keep it safe. While effective, it leaves a noticeable taste and smell that many households find unpleasant.
Follow the water from the street to every tap, and see why Perth households choose a custom whole-home system over quick fixes.
Sediment, carbon, and polishing stages in industry-standard housings, configured to your water, home, and budget with clear servicing choices.

Perth water meets Australian Drinking Water Guidelines, but chlorine taste, mineral buildup, and residue from treatment are everyday realities for most Perth households. Whole home water filtration can help.
Perth tap water is treated with chlorine to keep it safe. While effective, it leaves a noticeable taste and smell that many households find unpleasant.
Perth water carries higher-than-average mineral content. Many households notice residue on glass, tapware, and surfaces. It is one of the everyday realities of the local water supply.
The standard treatment process can leave behind subtle traces in your water. Many Perth households prefer to reduce these as part of a cleaner, more refined home experience.
A flexible whole-home system addresses the things you can taste, feel, and see without locking you into expensive features your property does not need.
Three stages of filtration help reduce chlorine and sediment, so every glass from every tap tastes clean, crisp, and refreshing.
Filtration removes chlorine before it reaches your shower. The result is water that feels gentler on skin and hair. It is a small change you tend to feel right away.
Whole-home filtration is tailored around your property, reducing chlorine and sediment before they reach your appliances, taps, and hot water system.
A single whole-home system replaces hundreds of single-use bottles each year. Cleaner water at every tap means you never need to buy bottled water again.
Unlike single-tap filters, the Core Water Worx whole home water filtration system connects where water enters your property and filters everything before it reaches any outlet. Kitchen, bathrooms, laundry, appliances: every setup is matched to your requirements, budget, and plans for the property.
Installed where water enters your home, the system is configured around your exact requirements before water reaches any outlet.
Designed to maintain full water pressure while filtering. Showers feel the same and taps run strong. You just notice the water is better.
Your setup can adapt as your household, water quality, or budget changes, without forcing you into expensive features you do not need.
Our systems use industry-standard filter sizes and flexible components, with clear aftercare choices and local support.

Whole-home filtration can be planned before handover, added during a build, or installed later. For new builds, it becomes a practical move-in-ready feature instead of another job to organise after settlement.
Add whole-home filtration before handover so every tap and shower is filtered from day one.
Plan the system during selections or pre-start, when access is easier and disruption is lower.
Match filtration to household size, suburb, plumbing layout, and the level of finish you want.
