This Vortex Pro 3, fitted with our DuraScale-X filter pack, was installed at The House, a brand new boutique bathhouse and wellness centre in Dunsborough.
Clean water for a wellness sanctuary
The House is a boutique bathhouse and facial spa built around traditional bathing rituals: a dry sauna, aromatherapy steam room, cold plunge, magnesium baths and an onsen scrub space, alongside a dedicated facial spa. Water quality isn’t an afterthought in a business like this, it’s central to the entire experience.
The owner had done her own research before reaching out, and understood exactly how important clean, healthy water is for a space built around bathing and skin health. After choosing Dunsborough Water Filtration, we recommended a Vortex Pro 3 whole-home filtration system with DuraScale-X, rather than a traditional water softener.
Protecting premium stone finishes from scale
The House features beautiful natural stone finishes throughout its steam rooms and bath areas, exactly the kind of surface that hard water scale can dull and damage over time. DuraScale-X protects those finishes by converting hardness minerals into stable, inactive crystals rather than stripping them out with salt, so there’s no scale build-up on stone, tapware or fixtures, and no brine tank or added sodium to manage in a commercial setting.
For a business built on wellness, that also matters for the water itself: guests bathing in magnesium baths or steaming in the sauna are getting water that’s filtered and scale-protected, without the sodium load a conventional softener would add.
Fitted in keeping with the space
The unit was supplied and installed in a plant room finished with the same natural, textural materials as the rest of the venue, brushwood screening and stone-tiled flooring. We plumbed it in on copper pipework raised clear of the tiles, keeping it fully accessible for servicing while sitting comfortably within the space. Once styled with greenery to match the wellness centre’s aesthetic, the installation blends into the background entirely.
