OUR SOLUTIONS
Complete Water Treatment Services
We don't just sell filters; we design custom solutions. From General Plumbing integration to advanced purification, we handle it all.
Whole House Water Filtration
- Removes Chlorine & Sediment
- Filters Water at Every Tap
- Protects Skin & Hair
Filter your water at the mains entry point. A whole house system ensures that every drop of water used for showering, cooking, and cleaning is filtered, removing the harsh chemical smell of town water.
Water Softeners (Hard Water)
- Eliminates Limescale
- Extends Appliance Life
- Better Lather with Less Soap
Essential for suburbs like Kirwan and Douglas. Due to the mineral-rich water from the Ross River Dam, calcium buildup can destroy Hot Water Systems and tapware. Our softeners remove these minerals before they enter your pipes.
Reverse Osmosis (Drinking)
- Bottled Water Quality
- Removes Fluoride & Metals
- Under-Sink Installation
For the purest drinking water possible. Our RO systems remove up to 99% of contaminants including fluoride, heavy metals, and bacteria. We recommend and install high-quality units like those found at Filter Systems Australia.
Rainwater & UV Sterilisation
- Kills Bacteria (E. coli)
- Safe Tank Water
- Pump Filtration
Vital for properties in Alligator Creek and Bushland Beach. UV systems neutralise bacteria from bird droppings on your roof, making tank water safe for the whole house.
Commercial & Media Filters
- Iron Removal (Bore Water)
- Industrial Applications
- High Flow Rates
We design heavy-duty filtration for businesses and wash bays. Whether you need to correct pH levels or remove iron staining from bore water, we have the media filtration expertise to help.

OUR PROCESS
Professional Assessment & Installation
We don't guess. We test your water first (whether town, bore, or rain) to ensure we install the exact system you need.
On-Site Water Test
We test for hardness (calcium), TDS (Total Dissolved Solids), and pH. For rural properties, we check bore and tank water for common contaminants.
Custom Solution Design
We size the system based on your household flow rate and test results. We select specific UV lamps for rainwater or resin tanks for softeners.
Licensed Installation
Our plumbers install the unit with neat pipework, correct pressure limiting valves for pumps, and bypass lines for easy future maintenance.
Maintenance Schedule
Filters and UV lamps need changing to stay effective. We add you to our system and remind you when your cartridges are due for replacement.

COMMON QUESTIONS
Expert Answers on Softeners, Rainwater Tanks & Filtration
Advice on hard water, bore pumps, and maintaining pure water systems for Townsville homes.
It depends heavily on your suburb, but generally, yes. Townsville's water supply, largely from the Ross River Dam, has naturally high calcium and magnesium levels. This 'hard water' is most severe in suburbs like Douglas and Annandale. If you see white scale on screens or have dry skin, a softener is essential to counteract this mineral density.
A Whole House Water Filtration System connects to your mains entry point, removing chlorine, sediment, and chemicals from every tap, shower, and appliance in your home. A Reverse Osmosis (RO) System is typically installed under the kitchen sink for drinking water only. RO offers a much finer level of filtration, removing fluoride, heavy metals, and bacteria to bottled-water quality standards. Many clients choose both for complete coverage.
Yes. For properties in Alligator Creek, Black River, and Bluewater relying on bore water, we design custom Bore Water Treatment systems. We test your water first to identify issues like iron, salinity, or bacteria, and then install specific media filters and UV sterilisation units to ensure your water is clear, safe, and staining-free.
Absolutely. The "pool water" taste and smell in Townsville's mains water is caused by chlorine used for sanitation. Our Carbon Filtration Systems (either whole home or under-sink) effectively neutralize chlorine and chloramines, giving you fresh, sweet-tasting water straight from the tap without the need for jugs or bottles.
The cost varies depending on the size of your home (flow rate requirements) and water quality. A basic twin-stage filter is very affordable, while a comprehensive system with a Water Softener and UV protection is a larger investment. We provide free on-site assessments and written quotes, and we guarantee to beat any comparable quote from other local plumbers.
Yes, this is one of the biggest benefits. Hard water minerals strip natural oils from your skin and leave a soap scum residue that can irritate eczema and sensitive skin. By installing a Water Softener, you bathe in mineral-free water that allows soap to rinse away cleanly, often leading to softer skin and shinier hair for the whole family.
Yes, we service all major brands including Puretec, Shield, and others. Whether you need a simple cartridge change for an Under Sink Water Filter or a media replacement for a large commercial filter, our licensed plumbers can add you to our maintenance schedule so you never forget a service.
Connecting Rainwater Harvesting Systems to your house is a great way to save money, but safety is key. Bird droppings and leaf debris can introduce bacteria like E. coli into your tank. We install UV Water Sterilisers and multi-stage sediment filters on your pump line, ensuring your rainwater is 100% bacteria-free and safe for showering and drinking.
Generally, the pre-filters (sediment and carbon) on a Reverse Osmosis System should be changed every 6 to 12 months, while the RO membrane itself can last 2 to 3 years depending on your water quality. We can test your system's performance (TDS reading) to tell you exactly when the membrane needs replacing, saving you money on unnecessary changes.
Water filtration involves cutting into your home’s main water supply. Incorrect installation by a handyman or DIYer can lead to leaks, pressure drops, or voided home insurance. As fully licensed Townsville plumbers, Supreme Plumbing & Waste Water ensures your system is installed with the correct pressure limiting valves, backflow prevention, and bypass pipework for easy future maintenance.
