Puretec RO270 Reverse Osmosis Water Filter System
The Puretec RO270 Reverse Osmosis Water Filter System is available from Installed Today as a supply-only under sink reverse osmosis drinking water filter system or as a complete supply and install package in selected Brisbane and Gold Coast service areas, where available.
Choose the system only if you already have a suitable installer arranged, or check your supply and install package before checkout to confirm installation suitability, under sink space, tap hole requirements, water pressure, drain connection, tank position, cartridge access and available installation timeframes.
The Puretec RO270 is an under sink reverse osmosis drinking water system designed to reduce fluoride, PFAS, heavy metals, salts, nitrate, chlorine, taste, odour, bacteria, viruses, cysts and other dissolved impurities down to a nominal 0.0005 micron level. With a 270 litre per day capacity, 7L storage tank, chrome designer faucet and three-stage replacement cartridge setup, it is a strong option for homes wanting high-quality filtered drinking water from a dedicated drinking water tap.
About the Puretec RO270 Reverse Osmosis System
The Puretec RO270 uses reverse osmosis technology to force water through an ultra-fine membrane. This membrane separates dissolved impurities from the water, with rejected impurities flushed to drain.
This makes the RO270 different from a standard carbon under sink filter. A standard drinking water filter can improve taste, odour and chlorine, while reverse osmosis is designed for a much finer level of contaminant reduction, including fluoride, PFAS, heavy metals, salts and nitrate.
The RO270 includes a 7L storage tank and a chrome designer faucet, giving the home a dedicated filtered drinking water outlet at the kitchen sink.

Reverse Osmosis Drinking Water Filtration
The Puretec RO270 uses reverse osmosis filtration to provide a finer level of drinking water treatment than many standard under sink carbon filters.
Reverse osmosis works by pushing water through an ultra-fine membrane. The membrane allows water molecules through while rejecting many dissolved impurities, which are then flushed to drain.
This makes the RO270 a strong option for customers wanting targeted reduction of fluoride, PFAS, heavy metals, salts, nitrate and other dissolved contaminants.
Fluoride, PFAS and Heavy Metal Reduction
The Puretec RO270 is designed to reduce fluoride, PFAS and heavy metals from drinking water.
These are common reasons customers choose reverse osmosis instead of a standard drinking water filter. While a carbon filter can be useful for taste, odour and chlorine, reverse osmosis is designed for a much finer level of contaminant reduction.
Nominal 0.0005 Micron Membrane Filtration
The RO270 uses an ultra-fine reverse osmosis membrane with a nominal 0.0005 micron rating.
This very fine membrane filtration is what allows the system to reduce dissolved impurities that many larger-micron drinking water filters are not designed to target. The micron rating is nominal, so the product should be selected based on Puretec’s specifications and intended use rather than assuming absolute removal of every contaminant.
270 Litres Per Day Capacity
The Puretec RO270 has a listed capacity of 270 litres per day.
This makes it suitable for everyday drinking water, cooking water, kettle filling, coffee machines and general kitchen drinking water use. It is not a whole-house water filter and is not intended to supply every tap in the home.
7L Storage Tank
The RO270 includes a 7L storage tank. Reverse osmosis systems filter water more slowly than standard inline filters, so the storage tank helps keep filtered water available for normal drinking water demand.
Tank positioning should be checked before installation. Under sink space can vary significantly depending on bins, plumbing, drawers, cabinetry, dishwashers and existing filtration equipment.
Dedicated Chrome Faucet
The Puretec RO270 includes a chrome designer faucet for dedicated filtered drinking water.
This means the system is generally installed with a separate drinking water tap at the sink. A suitable tap hole is required, and Puretec lists a 13 mm diameter tap hole requirement. If no suitable tap hole exists, drilling may be required.
Three-Stage Cartridge Setup
The Puretec RO270 uses a three-stage cartridge and membrane setup:
Using the correct replacement cartridges is important for system performance, water quality and warranty support. Puretec specifies the use of genuine Puretec replacement cartridges.
Water Pressure Requirements
The RO270 has a listed operating pressure range of 300–870 kPa.
Puretec notes that if pressure exceeds 500 kPa, an approved pressure limiting device needs to be fitted. This is important for installation planning because many homes may have incoming water pressure above 500 kPa.
Water pressure should be checked before installation to confirm whether pressure control is required.
Water Temperature Requirements
The RO270 has a listed operating temperature range of 0–30°C and should be protected from freezing.
This system is designed for cold water drinking water filtration. It should not be connected to hot water lines or installed where the filter system can freeze.
TDS and Hardness Requirements
Puretec lists a maximum inlet TDS of 2,000 mg/L and a maximum hardness of 171 mg/L / 10 grain.
If the water supply is outside these limits or has unusual water quality issues, additional pre-treatment or a different filtration setup may be required. For rainwater, bore water or non-standard water supplies, water testing and system selection should be checked carefully.
Under Sink Installation Requirements
The RO270 is an under sink drinking water system. The installation location needs enough room for the cartridges, membrane, storage tank, water feed connection, drain connection and service access.
Before ordering, check that the under sink area has enough space and that future cartridge changes can be completed without major cabinet disassembly.
Drain Connection Requirement
Reverse osmosis systems flush rejected impurities to drain. This means the RO270 requires a suitable drain connection as part of the installation.
Drain connection requirements can vary depending on sink plumbing, waste layout, dishwasher connections and local plumbing requirements. Extra parts or labour may be required for non-standard setups.
Puretec RO270 vs Standard Under Sink Carbon Filter
A standard under sink carbon filter is often selected to improve taste, odour, chlorine and sediment. The Puretec RO270 is a reverse osmosis system designed for finer contaminant reduction.
The RO270 may be a better option where customers are specifically concerned about fluoride, PFAS, heavy metals, salts, nitrate or dissolved impurities. A standard carbon filter may suit customers mainly wanting better tasting water with simpler installation and less wastewater.
Puretec RO270 vs Whole-House Water Filtration
The Puretec RO270 is a point-of-use drinking water system installed under the sink. It filters drinking water at a dedicated tap.
A whole-house water filter treats water entering the entire home and can help with sediment, chlorine, taste, odour and general household water quality depending on the selected system. Some customers may choose both: whole-house filtration for general water quality and reverse osmosis for dedicated drinking water.
Puretec RO270 vs Bottled Water
The RO270 can reduce reliance on bottled drinking water by providing filtered drinking water from a dedicated kitchen faucet.
This may suit homes that regularly buy bottled water for taste or water quality concerns. Actual suitability depends on household preferences, water quality, installation space and ongoing cartridge replacement requirements.
