This young family has lived on a rural property in Yallingup for the past five years, relying on rainwater stored in a tank. When they recently had their water tested, it came back positive for E. coli.
Why stored water needs treatment
A positive result is no surprise. E. coli and plenty of other nasty bacteria and viruses will be found in stored water. Birds, animals, leaf litter and warm weather all give bacteria a way into tanks and gutters, and a tank that looks clean can still carry contamination. That’s why regular water quality testing and proper treatment are so important for tank water households.
The Ultra V Pro 3S solution
We installed our Ultra V Pro 3S fully covered whole home filter. It combines multi-stage filtration with UV sterilisation, so the water is filtered and then treated with ultraviolet light to eliminate bacteria and viruses before it reaches any tap in the house. The result is clean, fresh and very healthy rainwater for the whole family.
Mounted on a custom stainless steel bracket
We installed the system beside the tank on one of our custom-made, full stainless steel brackets. The bracket keeps the unit secure and off the ground, and stainless steel stands up to the weather on a rural block for years to come.
And needless to say, we earned ourselves another 5 star review.
