The Puretec Hybrid G7 is a high-capacity whole-house dual-stage filtration and ultraviolet treatment system designed primarily for rainwater. Rather than being a small under-sink or inline kitchen filter, the Hybrid G7 treats the property's main water supply before water is distributed to downstream taps, showers and appliances.
The HYBRID-G7-LF combines a PL05MP2 5 micron washable sediment cartridge with a DP10MP2 10 micron dual-purpose carbon cartridge, followed by Puretec Radfire ultraviolet treatment using an RL6 46W UV lamp and RQS6 quartz sleeve.
Puretec now identifies the Hybrid G7 as a discontinued model. Existing systems remain serviceable with genuine replacement filters, UV components and the HR-G7R2 maintenance kit, while new installations should also consider Puretec's current Hybrid E Series.
The Hybrid G7 treats the main incoming water supply rather than a single drinking-water outlet. Water first moves through two large 20-inch filtration cartridges before entering the stainless-steel ultraviolet chamber.
The first stage removes sediment such as silt, sludge, dirt and rust. The second stage combines sediment filtration with carbon treatment to reduce chlorine taste, unwanted taste and odour. The UV stage then provides chemical-free microbiological treatment.
Puretec states that its Radfire UV technology is capable of reducing up to 99.99% of E. coli, Giardia and Cryptosporidium cysts when the system is operated and maintained within the manufacturer's specified water-quality and flow conditions.
No. The Hybrid G7 is not a compact carbon filter installed beneath one kitchen sink, and it does not simply connect to an existing kitchen mixer.
It is a substantial whole-house point-of-entry filtration and UV system using two 20-inch MaxiPlus filter housings, an ultraviolet chamber, electrical controller and weather-protected cabinet.
Its purpose is to treat water before it enters the property's internal plumbing network so multiple downstream outlets can receive treated water.
Puretec describes the G7 as a high-capacity system suited to medium-to-large applications requiring longer-life 20-inch cartridges.
The Hybrid G Series is designed specifically around whole-house treatment of common rainwater supplies.
The G7 combines filtration and ultraviolet treatment in one unit, making it suitable where cartridge filtration alone does not provide the required microbiological treatment.
The washable PL05MP2 first stage reduces silt, sludge, dirt, rust and other suspended sediment before water reaches the second cartridge.
The DP10MP2 dual-purpose carbon cartridge provides sediment filtration while reducing chlorine taste, unwanted taste and odour.
The Radfire UV stage provides chemical-free treatment against microorganisms including E. coli, Giardia and Cryptosporidium cysts under suitable operating conditions.
Puretec currently marks the Hybrid G7 as discontinued and directs customers toward newer Hybrid E Series whole-house filtration and UV systems.
Existing G7 installations can continue to be maintained because Puretec still lists the required PL05MP2 and DP10MP2 cartridges, RL6 UV lamp, RQS6 quartz sleeve and HR-G7R2 maintenance kit.
If purchasing a new system, remaining G7 stock should be confirmed before ordering and compared against current Puretec alternatives based on actual water source, required flow and UV-treatment requirements.
*Puretec specifies a 3-year parts warranty, including parts and labour during the first year where applicable, followed by a further 2 years parts only. Consumables are excluded.
A washable 5 micron pleated sediment cartridge captures silt, sludge, dirt, rust and suspended particles.
A 10 micron dual-purpose carbon cartridge provides additional sediment filtration while reducing chlorine taste, unwanted taste and odour.
Filtered water enters the stainless-steel UV chamber where ultraviolet light provides chemical-free microbiological treatment.
Puretec's Radfire ultraviolet technology is designed to treat microorganisms without dosing the water with treatment chemicals.
The manufacturer states that the Hybrid G Series can reduce up to 99.99% of E. coli, Giardia and Cryptosporidium cysts under the required operating conditions.
Effective UV treatment depends on water clarity. Sediment, iron, manganese, hardness and other substances can reduce UV transmittance or build up on the quartz sleeve. Puretec recommends a UVT test where the clarity of the source water is uncertain.
Puretec publishes a 130 L/min headline maximum flow for the Hybrid G7, together with separate UV performance figures based on ultraviolet dose.
| Published Rating | Flow Rate | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| G7 Headline Maximum | 130 L/min | Manufacturer's headline maximum-flow figure for the 20-inch Hybrid G7. |
| UV Dose 40 mJ/cm² | 54 L/min | Higher UV dose at a lower flow rate. |
| UV Dose 30 mJ/cm² | 70 L/min | Puretec identifies 30 mJ/cm² as the industry-standard UV dose for drinking water. |
| UV Dose 16 mJ/cm² | 130 L/min | Lower UV dose at the highest published flow. |
System sizing should consider the required UV dose as well as peak household water demand. The 130 L/min headline figure should not be treated as equivalent to 130 L/min at the 30 or 40 mJ/cm² UV doses.
Combines sediment filtration, carbon treatment and ultraviolet treatment in one whole-house unit.
The larger 20-inch filters provide increased sediment capacity compared with the smaller G6 system.
The G Series incorporates a weather-protection cabinet designed for suitable outdoor installations.
An anti-tamper and childproof lockable lid protects the internal controls while allowing servicing access.
The controller monitors UV lamp life and provides audible and visible warning functions.
Puretec specifies a lightweight high-strength aluminium bracket with protective coating for durability.

The Hybrid G7 uses the Puretec RL6 46W ultraviolet lamp together with the Puretec RQS6 quartz sleeve.
The clear quartz sleeve separates the UV lamp from the water while allowing ultraviolet energy to pass through the chamber. It needs to remain clean because mineral or biological deposits can reduce UV transmission.
Puretec specifies the HR-G7R2 maintenance kit for Hybrid G7 and Hybrid R2 systems.
Puretec specifies replacement of the two filtration cartridges every 6 months to maintain filtration performance and water quality.
The RL6 UV lamp must be replaced annually. The manufacturer specifies a rated lamp life of 365 days and recommends annual replacement even if the lamp still appears to illuminate.
Puretec recommends checking the quartz sleeve approximately every 3 months, depending on source-water quality, and cleaning it where deposits have accumulated.
The Hybrid G7 is a whole-house filtration and UV system requiring suitable plumbing, structural mounting and electrical provision.
Yes. The G7 contains a powered ultraviolet treatment system and requires an AC 240V / 50Hz electrical supply for the UV lamp and controller.
