PURETEC UNDERSINK WATER FILTRATION
Puretec TS100 Dual Undersink Water Filter System with High-Loop Faucet
The Puretec TS100 is a dual-stage undersink drinking-water filtration system designed for mains and town water. It combines sediment and carbon filtration with a dedicated Puretec DFU180 high-loop chrome faucet, providing filtered drinking water separately from your normal kitchen mixer.
The current TS100-LF uses a PX051 sediment cartridge followed by a GC051 granular carbon cartridge. Together they reduce sediment, rust, dirt, chlorine, chemicals, unpleasant taste and odour while retaining essential minerals.
Installed Today offers the Puretec TS100 as a supply-only filtration system, with supplied-and-installed options available across eligible Brisbane and Gold Coast service areas.
Puretec TS100 at a glance: a twin undersink mains-water filter with a dedicated high-loop faucet, nominal 5 micron filtration, maximum 4 L/min flow and two replaceable cartridges. Stage 1 targets sediment such as dirt, rust, sand and silt, while Stage 2 uses granular carbon to reduce chlorine, chemicals, unpleasant tastes and odours.
WHAT IT DOES
What Does the Puretec TS100 Do?
The TS100 filters cold mains or town water before it reaches its dedicated drinking-water faucet. Water passes through two separate cartridges so larger sediment is treated first before the water moves through the carbon filtration stage.
This dual-stage arrangement is designed to improve drinking-water clarity, taste and odour while helping protect the second-stage cartridge from unnecessary sediment loading.
WHO IT SUITS
Who Is the Puretec TS100 Best For?
Mains & Town Water Homes
Puretec specifically designs the TS Series for homes and workplaces supplied by treated metropolitan, mains or town water.
Dedicated Drinking Water
Suitable for kitchens where filtered drinking and cooking water is wanted from a separate dedicated faucet.
Dual-Stage Filtration
A practical option where both sediment reduction and chlorine, chemical, taste and odour reduction are required.
WHAT IT HELPS SOLVE
What Water Problems Can the Puretec TS100 Help With?
Sediment, Rust & Dirt
The first-stage PX051 polyspun cartridge is designed to reduce dirt, rust, sand, silt, algae and other suspended particles.
Chlorine & Chemical Taste
The second-stage GC051 granular carbon cartridge reduces chlorine, volatile chemicals and pesticides that can affect drinking-water taste and odour.
Unpleasant Taste & Odour
Granular carbon filtration provides extended contact with the water to improve taste and reduce unwanted odours.

PRODUCT SUITABILITY
Is the Puretec TS100 Right for My Home?
A Good Choice If...
You have mains or town water and want a dedicated undersink drinking-water filter that targets sediment, chlorine, chemicals, taste and odour.
Consider Another Option If...
You need finer filtration than the TS100's nominal 5 micron rating, whole-house filtration, or treatment for untreated microbiologically unsafe water.
Check Before Ordering
Confirm available undersink space, water pressure, cold-water connection, suitable faucet position and whether a 12.5mm faucet hole can be provided.
IMPORTANT WATER SOURCE INFORMATION
What Water Supply Is the Puretec TS100 Designed For?
The TS100 is primarily designed for mains and town water. Puretec states that its undersink TS systems can be used in other situations, but other water sources should be assessed separately to determine the appropriate treatment requirements.
The TS100 should not be used with microbiologically unsafe water or water of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after the system.
If your property uses untreated rainwater, bore water, dam water or another non-mains source, select a filtration and disinfection system designed for that water source rather than assuming the TS100 alone is suitable.
HOW IT WORKS
How Does the Puretec TS100 Work?
Cold water is diverted from the kitchen's cold-water supply through the TS100 filtration housings before being delivered to the dedicated DFU180 faucet.
1. Sediment Filtration
Water first passes through the PX051 5 micron polyspun sediment cartridge to reduce dirt, rust, sand, silt, algae and suspended particles.
2. Granular Carbon Filtration
Water then passes through the GC051 granular carbon cartridge to reduce chlorine, unwanted taste, odour, volatile chemicals and pesticides.
3. Dedicated Faucet
Filtered water is delivered through the included Puretec DFU180 high-loop faucet for drinking, cooking and filling bottles or containers.
KEY FEATURES

FILTER CARTRIDGES
What Replacement Filters Does the Puretec TS100 Use?
Stage 1 – PX051
The Puretec PX051 is a 5 micron polyspun sediment cartridge designed to reduce sediment, dirt, rust, sand, silt, algae and other suspended particles.

FILTER REPLACEMENT
How Often Do Puretec TS100 Filters Need Replacing?
Puretec specifies cartridge replacement every 6–12 months, depending on water quality and usage.
The TS Series user guide also states that cartridges should be changed at least every 8,000 litres or 6–12 months, whichever occurs first, or sooner if you notice a change in taste, odour or water flow.
Actual cartridge life can vary because sediment levels, chlorine concentration, organic substances and household water consumption differ between properties.
INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
What Is Required to Install the Puretec TS100?
The TS100 is installed beneath the sink and connects to the cold-water line only. The filter assembly should be positioned close to the dedicated faucet with adequate access for future cartridge servicing.

MAINTENANCE
How Do You Maintain the Puretec TS100?
The primary ongoing maintenance requirement is regular replacement of both filter cartridges. Puretec recommends replacing the PX051 and GC051 cartridges every 6–12 months depending on water quality and usage, with an 8,000 litre maximum interval stated in the TS Series user guide.
After cartridge replacement, Puretec instructs users to flush the system for approximately 5–10 minutes. The installation should also be checked periodically for leakage, deterioration or other signs that servicing is required.
If the system has not been used for more than two days, Puretec recommends flushing it for approximately 10 minutes before use.
