FAQ about UV Water Filters

How often should I replace my under bench water filter cartridge?

Most homes on the mains water supply should replace their filter cartridge every 6 to 12 months. Aqua Works provides automatic reminders and full-service maintenance to keep your system running at peak efficiency.

Regular changes maintain water pressure and ensure your filter continues removing chlorine, sediment, and odours. For coastal or high-use households from North Shore to Waipu, we recommend a professional inspection each year to confirm optimal flow and performance.

Will an under bench water filter affect my water pressure?

A properly installed under-bench water filter from Aqua Works maintains a strong, consistent flow — typically around 2 litres per minute. Our certified plumbers size each system to match your tap and household usage, so you’ll notice cleaner water without any pressure loss.

High-flow cartridges and durable housings are selected for New Zealand mains pressure, ensuring reliable performance in Warkworth, Rodney, and across North Auckland.

What contaminants does an under bench water filter remove?

Aqua Works under bench filters are designed for NZ mains water and remove chlorine, rust, sediment, heavy metals, pesticides, and unpleasant taste or odour. We use premium carbon-block or multi-stage cartridges certified for health and safety standards.

If you’re in coastal or older plumbing areas such as Snells Beach, Orewa, Silverdale or the North Shore, we can add specific media to target fine particles or metallic aftertaste for the purest, freshest drinking water possible.

Do I need a separate tap for filtered water?

Not always. Many Aqua Works underbench systems can connect directly to your existing kitchen mixer, delivering filtered water from your main tap. Others come with a sleek, dedicated faucet for drinking water only — ideal for busy kitchens or modern designs.

During installation, our technicians help you choose the setup that best fits your sink, plumbing, and aesthetic, ensuring clean water with minimal disruption to your kitchen layout.

Can I install an under bench filter myself?

While DIY kits exist, Aqua Works strongly recommends professional installation by our certified plumbers and registered tradesmen. Proper setup ensures the correct flow rate, pressure safety, and full warranty protection.

Our team has over 25+ years’ experience across the Rodney district, Matakana and Hibiscus Coast, so you get a safe, compliant system that delivers pure water from day one — with no leaks or costly mistakes.

Are under bench water filters only suitable for mains water supplies?

Yes — underbench water filters are specifically designed for mains-water supplies and are the most common filtration choice for New Zealand households on town water. These systems connect directly to the cold-water line under your kitchen sink, handling full mains pressure while maintaining excellent flow

Under bench water filters can also be fitted to rainwater harvesting systems. However, for tank water they’re not full protection on their own — without a UV unit, microorganisms can still remain. Aqua Works installs under bench filters tailored to both mains and tank water across North Auckland, ensuring you get the right level of filtration for clean, great-tasting, safe water every day.

Is an under bench water filter more cost-effective than bottled water?

Absolutely. Once installed, an Aqua Works under bench water filter costs only cents per litre — far cheaper than buying bottled water. You’ll save money, reduce plastic waste, and never run out of clean water.

Over a year, most households in Warkworth, Snells Beach, Algies Bay or the North Shore recover their investment through lower costs and convenience, while enjoying the superior taste and environmental benefits of a reusable filtration system.

Can Aqua Works service my existing under bench water filter?

Absolutely. Even if another company installed your system, Aqua Works can inspect, clean, and replace filters for nearly all major brands used in NZ homes.

Our service technicians carry a full range of cartridges, fittings, and spare parts, so you’ll get fast, professional maintenance anywhere from Albany to Waipu. We’ll also provide honest advice on whether your current system still meets safety and efficiency standards.

Don’t just take our word for it…

We have used Aqua Works three times now, replacing a water pump, installing an under bench filter and replacing four leaky taps in a laundry tub. On each occasion, the staff have been friendly and efficient and we have been very pleased with their guidance and the work they’ve done. The bills have seemed fair and reasonable.

Mike Brockie, 2024

Today we had a service from this company, Aqua Works and were very impressed again. This company has been servicing our water filtration system for 9 years now and we have always been very happy with the results. The service person has always been very helpful with information to guide us on what we should be aware of.

Marilyn Wheeler, April 2025

“There was an under sink filter installed when we moved in to our current home and we have been so impressed with the results and the friendly, reliable service from Rich and the other members of the Aquaworks team that we also had one installed at a family member’s home. Highly recommend.”
