Puretec TS200 Twin Undersink Water Filter with Dedicated Tap
The Puretec TS200 is a twin-stage undersink drinking-water filtration system designed for mains and town water. It combines a dedicated sediment cartridge with a 0.5-micron carbon block cartridge to help reduce sediment, rust, dirt, chlorine, chemicals, unpleasant taste and odour from the kitchen drinking-water supply.
The system includes the Puretec DFU180 chrome high-loop drinking-water faucet, so filtered water is delivered through its own dedicated tap rather than through the home's existing kitchen mixer.
Puretec specifies a maximum filtered-water flow rate of 4 litres per minute. The TS200 also includes a multifunction control valve providing pressure reduction, anti-water-hammer protection and dual-check backflow protection.
Installed Today offers the Puretec TS200 for supply-only ordering across supported Australian locations, with supplied-and-installed options available across eligible Brisbane and Gold Coast service areas.
What Does the Puretec TS200 Do?
The TS200 connects to the kitchen cold-water supply and treats water before it reaches the supplied dedicated drinking-water faucet.
Its two-stage arrangement separates sediment filtration from the final carbon filtration stage. This helps protect the finer second-stage cartridge while providing additional capacity for sediment, rust and dirt.
The result is filtered point-of-use water intended primarily for drinking, preparing food, filling kettles and other kitchen applications where filtered cold water is wanted.
Who Is the Puretec TS200 Best For?
Mains-Water Homes
Puretec designs the TS Series specifically for mains and town water where chlorine, sediment, taste and odour are common filtration priorities.
Dedicated Filter-Tap Kitchens
The TS200 suits customers who prefer a separate drinking-water faucet rather than replacing the main kitchen mixer with a three-way tap.
Homes Wanting Finer Filtration
The TS200 uses a 0.5-micron final carbon cartridge and provides cyst reduction, making it the finer-filtration model compared with the TS100.
What Problems Can the Puretec TS200 Help Solve?
Sediment, Rust & Dirt
The first-stage PX051 polyspun cartridge captures sediment before water reaches the finer carbon filtration stage.
Chlorine, Taste & Odour
The second-stage CB951 carbon block cartridge helps reduce chlorine, chemicals and unwanted taste and odour.
Cyst Reduction
Puretec specifically lists cyst reduction as a feature of the TS200's 0.5-micron filtration configuration.
Puretec TS200 Key Details
*Puretec's current TS Series user guide states cartridges should be changed at least every 8,000 litres or 6–12 months, whichever occurs first. **Warranty is 1 year parts and labour plus 2 years parts only; consumables are excluded.
Is the Puretec TS200 Right for My Kitchen?
A Good Choice If...
You have mains or town water and want a dedicated drinking-water tap with twin-stage sediment and carbon filtration.
Consider Another System If...
You specifically want filtered water from your main kitchen mixer, reverse-osmosis treatment, dedicated fluoride reduction or a purpose-built untreated-rainwater system.
Check Before Ordering
Confirm under-sink space, suitable faucet position, incoming pressure, access to the cold-water line and enough clearance for future housing and cartridge servicing.
How Does the Puretec TS200 Work?
Stage 1 – PX051 Sediment Filter
The first stage uses the PX051 10-inch polyspun sediment cartridge. Puretec lists it as a 5-micron cartridge designed to reduce sediment, rust, sand, silt and other particulate matter.
Stage 2 – CB951 Carbon Block
The second stage uses the CB951 10-inch carbon block cartridge. It provides the system's 0.5-micron final filtration and targets chlorine, chemicals, unpleasant taste and odour while providing cyst reduction.
What Does the Puretec TS200 Filter?
- Sediment
- Rust
- Sand and silt
- Dirt and fine particles
- Chlorine
- Bad taste
- Unpleasant odour
- Selected chemicals
- Selected pesticides
- Cysts
Does the Puretec TS200 Use My Existing Kitchen Mixer?
No. The standard TS200 package includes a separate Puretec DFU180 chrome high-loop faucet specifically for filtered drinking water.
Normal hot and cold kitchen water continues through the existing mixer, while filtered cold water is delivered from the dedicated Puretec faucet.
The dedicated-faucet arrangement means the main kitchen mixer does not need to carry the filtered-water supply.
Puretec DFU180 High-Loop Drinking-Water Faucet
The included DFU180 is a chrome high-loop faucet designed specifically for point-of-use filtered drinking water.
Puretec specifies a 12.5 mm diameter tap hole for installation. The high-loop profile provides useful clearance for filling glasses, bottles and jugs.
The faucet forms part of the standard TS200 package rather than being an optional extra.
Key Features of the Puretec TS200
Dual Filtration Stages
Separate sediment and carbon cartridges provide greater sediment capacity and dedicated taste, odour and chemical filtration.
0.5-Micron Final Filtration
The CB951 carbon block provides the TS200's nominal 0.5-micron final filtration rating.
Cyst Reduction
Puretec lists cyst reduction as a specific feature of the TS200 filtration system.
Dedicated Chrome Faucet
The DFU180 high-loop drinking-water faucet is included with the package.
Multifunction Control Valve
The included valve provides pressure reduction, anti-water-hammer protection, flow control and backflow protection.
No Electricity Required
The TS200 operates from water pressure and requires no electrical connection or drainage connection.

- 300–500 kPa operating pressure
- Suitable under-sink mounting position
- 12.5 mm faucet hole
- Space to remove filter bowls
- Protection from direct sunlight

Does the Puretec TS200 Include Pressure Protection?
Yes. Puretec supplies the TS200 with a multifunction pressure-limiting control valve.
The valve incorporates pressure reduction, backflow prevention, anti-water-hammer protection and flow-control functions.
Puretec's current user guide lists a normal system operating range of 300–500 kPa. The system should not be operated above its specified maximum pressure.
Can the Puretec TS200 Be Used With Rainwater?
Puretec's TS Series specification identifies the TS200 as designed for mains and town water, while the current user guide describes metropolitan supply water as its intended application.
Puretec notes that other water-supply situations may be possible but advises customers to contact Puretec or an authorised stockist before using the system on another source.
How Often Do Puretec TS200 Filters Need Replacing?
Puretec recommends replacing the TS200 cartridges at least every 8,000 litres or 6–12 months, whichever occurs first.
Actual cartridge life depends on incoming chlorine levels, sediment, organic substances and the amount of filtered water used.
Filters should also be replaced earlier if there is a noticeable change in water taste, odour or flow.
Which Replacement Cartridges Does the Puretec TS200 Use?
PX051
Stage 1 sediment cartridge.
10-inch polyspun filter with a nominal 5-micron rating for sediment, rust and particulate reduction.
CB951
Stage 2 carbon block cartridge.
10-inch, nominal 0.5-micron cartridge for chlorine, taste, odour, chemical and cyst reduction.
Puretec recommends genuine replacement cartridges to maintain system performance and warranty requirements.
How Are the Puretec TS200 Filters Replaced?
The TS200 uses conventional reusable filter housings rather than a disposable quick-twist filter head.
During servicing, the water supply is isolated, pressure is relieved through the faucet and the filter bowls are removed using the housing wrench. The old cartridges are discarded, the housings and O-rings are inspected and the new cartridges are installed in the correct stage order.
Puretec instructs users to flush the system after cartridge replacement before returning it to normal use.
What's Included With the Puretec TS200?
Twin Filter Assembly
The two-housing undersink filtration assembly with mounting bracket and housings for the PX051 and CB951 cartridges.
DFU180 Filter Faucet
The chrome high-loop drinking-water faucet supplied specifically for the filtered-water outlet.
Installation & Control Components
The standard installation kit includes plumbing fittings and Puretec's multifunction pressure-limiting control valve.
