Bench Top Water Filter | 2 Stage | Sediment + Carbon

A 2-stage bench-top water filter that combines sediment and carbon treatment in a compact bench-top housing — no plumbing required, connects to your existing kitchen tap with a diverter valve. The two-stage build handles the contaminant categories that matter most for drinking water (chlorine, sediment) without modifying the property.

Two-Stage Filtration

• Stage 1 — 5 micron PP sediment cartridge: captures dirt, rust, sand, and visible particulate. Protects the carbon stage from clogging on sediment, keeping it focused on chemical adsorption work.
• Stage 2 — 5 micron coconut-shell carbon block: removes chlorine, taste, odour, and a range of organic chemical contaminants. Coconut-shell carbon has higher surface area per gram than coal-based carbon, giving better adsorption capacity at the same cartridge size.

Both cartridges are standard 10" × 2.5" format — compatible with widely-available replacements, not proprietary to this housing.

Why This Tier Is the Best-Value Bench-Top

The 1-stage carbon-only and sediment-only bench-tops handle one contaminant category each. This 2-stage build handles both — and at $69.95, costs the same as the 1-stage sediment unit and only $20 more than the 1-stage carbon. For most Australian households on chlorinated municipal water, the 2-stage covers everything that matters at a drinking-water tap.

What's Included

• 2-stage bench-top filtration system with compact housing
• 5 micron PP sediment cartridge (starter)
• 5 micron coconut-shell carbon block cartridge (starter)
• Faucet connection kit with quick diversion valve
• Instruction manual

Cartridge Service

Replace each cartridge every 6–12 months. Replacements available as a twin pair, premium twin pair, or as separate PP sediment and coconut carbon block singles.

How a Bench-Top Filter Connects

The diverter valve fits the kitchen tap spout. Flip the diverter when you want filtered water — tap flow redirects through the bench-top housing and out the filter's own dispensing tap. Flip it back for plain tap flow (filling pots, washing up). When you move out, you take the filter with you — no permanent install.
