The Complete Range of Awesome Water Products

Awesome Water® offers an extensive product catalogue designed to address every water quality concern and household configuration. Understanding the distinctions between these product categories helps consumers make informed decisions about which systems best suit their specific needs.
Water Coolers: Floor-Standing and Compact Models
Water coolers represent one of the most popular product categories, particularly for offices and larger households. Awesome Water® provides both floor-standing water coolers and compact benchtop models that accommodate various space requirements.
Floor-standing units typically offer higher capacity and may include features such as hot and cold water dispensing, making them ideal for busy households or commercial settings. These units often incorporate advanced filtration technology directly into the cooler system, eliminating the need for bottled water delivery whilst providing the convenience of instant hot water for tea or coffee.
Compact models suit smaller spaces such as apartments, home offices, or kitchens with limited counter space. Despite their smaller footprint, these units deliver the same filtration quality as their larger counterparts. Many models feature sleek, modern designs that complement contemporary Australian home aesthetics.
The Waterworks™ Coolers product line represents Awesome Water's premium offering in this category, featuring enhanced durability and advanced filtration capabilities. These systems are engineered to handle high-volume usage whilst maintaining consistent water quality.
Benchtop Water Purifiers
Benchtop purifiers offer a versatile solution for households seeking powerful filtration without permanent installation requirements. These systems sit directly on kitchen countertops and connect to standard taps via diverter valves, making them particularly suitable for renters or those who prefer non-invasive installation.
The purification process typically involves multiple filtration stages, including activated carbon filtration to remove chlorine, sediment filters for particulate matter, and advanced media that target specific contaminants such as heavy metals, pesticides, and pharmaceutical residues. Some premium benchtop models incorporate additional stages for fluoride removal or mineralisation to improve water taste and health benefits.
One significant advantage of benchtop systems is their portability. If you relocate, these units can easily move with you, making them a practical long-term investment for mobile lifestyles common among younger Australians.
Under-Sink and Inline Filtration Systems
For those seeking a more permanent and discreet solution, under-sink filtration systems represent an excellent choice. These systems install beneath kitchen sinks and connect directly to the cold water line, with a dedicated tap for filtered water mounted on the sink or benchtop.
Under-sink systems offer several advantages over benchtop alternatives:
Space efficiency: All filtration components remain hidden beneath the sink, preserving valuable counter spaceHigher capacity: Larger filter housings accommodate more substantial filtration media, resulting in longer filter life and better contaminant removalAesthetics: Only a sleek filtered water tap is visible, maintaining a clean, uncluttered kitchen appearancePerformance: Multi-stage systems can include specialised filters for specific contaminants
Inline filtration systems represent a simpler variant that connects directly to existing plumbing without requiring a separate tap. These systems filter all water flowing through the connected line, making them suitable for specific applications such as refrigerator ice makers or individual taps.

Complete Home Filtration Systems
Whole-house or point-of-entry (POE) filtration systems represent the most comprehensive approach to water treatment. These systems install at the main water supply entry point, ensuring that every tap, shower, and appliance throughout the home receives filtered water.
According to industry data, whole-house systems can extend appliance lifespan by reducing sediment and mineral buildup in water heaters, washing machines, and dishwashers. The Australian Water Association notes that sediment accumulation in water heaters can reduce efficiency by up to 30%, translating to higher energy costs over time.
Complete home filtration systems typically feature multiple stages:
Sediment pre-filtration: Removes rust, sand, and particulate matter that can damage plumbing and appliancesCarbon filtration: Eliminates chlorine, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and chemicals that affect taste and odourSpecialty media: Addresses specific water quality issues such as iron, manganese, or hardnessPost-filtration: Fine polishing to ensure optimal water quality throughout the home
The initial investment for whole-house systems ranges higher than point-of-use alternatives, with costs typically between $1,500 and $3,500 depending on system capacity and filtration technology. However, the comprehensive protection for all water outlets and appliances provides substantial long-term value.
Specialised Filtration Products
Awesome Water® recognises that certain water quality issues require targeted solutions, which is why the company offers several specialised product categories.
Fluoride Removal Filters
Fluoride remains a contentious topic in Australian water treatment, with some consumers preferring to remove it from their drinking water. Awesome Water® markets its fluoride removal system as the "#1 Fluoride Filter on the Market," utilising specialised media such as activated alumina or bone char that specifically targets fluoride molecules.
Standard carbon filters cannot effectively remove fluoride due to its molecular size and chemical properties. Dedicated fluoride filters typically achieve removal rates exceeding 95% when properly maintained, according to NSF International testing protocols.
Forever Chemicals and Microplastics Removal
Emerging contaminants such as PFAS (forever chemicals) and micro/nano plastics have become significant concerns for water quality. Research from Australian universities has detected these contaminants in various water sources across the country, prompting demand for advanced filtration solutions.
Awesome Water's systems designed for these contaminants employ specialised technologies including:
Reverse osmosis (RO) membranes: Effective at removing PFAS and microplastics due to extremely small pore sizes (typically 0.0001 microns)Advanced carbon blocks: High-density activated carbon formulated specifically for PFAS adsorptionMulti-stage filtration: Combining mechanical filtration for larger particles with chemical adsorption for dissolved contaminants
Studies indicate that reverse osmosis systems can remove over 99% of PFAS compounds, making them amongst the most effective residential treatment options currently available.
Shower Filters
Many Australians don't realise that skin and respiratory exposure to chlorine and chloramines during showering can equal or exceed exposure from drinking unfiltered water. Chlorine vaporises in hot shower water, creating inhalable gases, whilst skin absorption occurs through open pores.
Shower filters attach directly to shower arms and typically use a combination of KDF (kinetic degradation fluxion) media and activated carbon to neutralise chlorine. These filters can significantly reduce dry skin, brittle hair, and respiratory irritation associated with chlorinated shower water.
Replacement intervals for shower filters generally range from 6 to 12 months depending on water quality and usage frequency, with replacement cartridges priced accessibly to encourage regular maintenance.
Fridge Filters
Refrigerator water and ice dispensers have become standard features in modern Australian homes, but the built-in filtration provided by manufacturers often provides minimal protection. Dedicated fridge filters from Awesome Water® offer enhanced filtration compatible with various refrigerator brands and models.
These filters typically feature compressed activated carbon blocks that remove chlorine, lead, cysts, and other common contaminants whilst maintaining adequate water flow for dispenser operation. Regular replacement every six months ensures optimal performance and prevents bacterial growth within the filter housing.

Professional Services That Support Your Water Quality Journey
Whilst quality products form the foundation of clean water access, Awesome Water® recognises that professional services play an equally critical role in ensuring optimal system performance and customer satisfaction.
24-Hour Help Line and Technical Support
Water quality issues don't adhere to business hours. A contaminated water supply or malfunctioning filtration system can create urgent concerns, particularly for households with young children or individuals with compromised immune systems.
Awesome Water's 24-hour help line provides customers with round-the-clock access to technical support staff who can troubleshoot issues, provide maintenance guidance, and arrange service calls when necessary. This level of accessibility demonstrates the company's commitment to customer care and distinguishes it from competitors who offer only standard business hours support.
The help line also provides access to comprehensive repair manuals that empower customers to perform basic maintenance and troubleshooting independently. This approach reduces service costs whilst giving customers greater control over their water filtration systems.
Filter Change Service
One of the most common reasons for diminished water filter performance is simply failing to replace filters according to manufacturer recommendations. According to industry surveys, approximately 40% of water filter owners admit to using filters beyond their recommended lifespan, which can result in bacterial growth, reduced contaminant removal, and even re-contamination of filtered water.
Awesome Water's filter change service eliminates this concern by providing scheduled filter replacement performed by trained technicians. This service includes:
Scheduled reminders based on your specific system and usage patternsDelivery of genuine replacement filtersProfessional installation ensuring proper sealing and system integritySystem sanitisation to prevent bacterial growthPerformance testing to verify optimal operation
For busy households or those who simply prefer professional maintenance, this service ensures systems consistently deliver the promised water quality without requiring customers to track replacement schedules or perform installations themselves.
Spare Parts and Accessories
Water filtration systems, like any mechanical equipment, occasionally require replacement parts beyond filters. O-rings, housings, taps, and mounting hardware can wear out over time or become damaged during routine maintenance.
Awesome Water® maintains comprehensive inventory of spare parts and accessories for all systems in its product range, including discontinued models. This commitment to long-term parts availability protects customers' investments by ensuring that even older systems can be maintained and repaired rather than replaced entirely.
Common replacement parts include:
Filter housings and wrench toolsTap assemblies and aeratorsMounting brackets and hardwareTubing and fittingsPressure regulators and gauges
Having ready access to genuine parts prevents the temptation to use inferior generic alternatives that might compromise system performance or void warranties.
Three-Year Warranty Coverage
Product warranties provide important protection for consumers and signal manufacturer confidence in product quality. Awesome Water® backs its products with three-year warranty coverage, significantly exceeding the standard one-year warranties common in the water filtration industry.
This extended warranty covers manufacturing defects and component failures under normal use conditions, providing peace of mind for customers making substantial investments in whole-house or premium filtration systems. The warranty doesn't cover consumable components such as filter cartridges, which are designed for periodic replacement, but does protect the structural and mechanical elements of filtration systems.
In our experience working with Australian households, warranty coverage becomes particularly valuable for systems installed in challenging environments such as areas with extremely hard water, high sediment loads, or variable water pressure that can stress system components over time.
Specialised Product Lines: Waterworks™ and Cooler Lovers™
Awesome Water® has developed two distinctive sub-brands that address specific market segments and usage scenarios.
Waterworks™ Coolers and Products
The Waterworks™ line represents Awesome Water's commercial and high-capacity residential offerings. These systems are engineered for environments with substantial water consumption such as offices, schools, healthcare facilities, and large households.
Waterworks™ products typically feature:
Enhanced durability: Commercial-grade components designed for high-volume, continuous useLarger capacity: Greater filtration media volumes and higher flow ratesAdvanced filtration: Multi-stage systems addressing comprehensive contaminant profilesFlexible configurations: Options for hot, cold, ambient, and even sparkling water dispensing
For businesses seeking to eliminate bottled water delivery services, Waterworks™ systems provide an environmentally responsible alternative that also reduces ongoing operating costs. According to sustainability assessments, offices switching from bottled water delivery to point-of-use filtration systems reduce plastic waste by an average of 80 kilograms annually per 10 employees.
Cooler Lovers™ Cleaning Products
Maintaining water coolers and dispensers properly requires more than just filter replacement. Mineral deposits, biofilm formation, and bacterial growth can occur in reservoirs, tubing, and dispensing mechanisms if regular cleaning isn't performed.
Cooler Lovers™ cleaning products are specifically formulated for water cooler maintenance, including:
Sanitising solutions that eliminate bacteria without leaving harmful chemical residuesDescaling products that remove mineral deposits from heating elements and reservoirsCleaning tools designed for hard-to-reach cooler componentsPreventative treatments that inhibit biofilm formation
Regular cleaning with appropriate products extends cooler lifespan, maintains water quality, and prevents the off-tastes and odours that can develop in poorly maintained systems. Industry guidelines recommend thorough cooler sanitisation every three to six months depending on usage levels and water quality.
Bundle Savings and Value Options
Recognising that comprehensive water quality solutions often require multiple products or ongoing filter supplies, Awesome Water® offers Bundle Saver Packs that provide cost advantages for customers making larger purchases.
These bundles typically combine:
System plus replacement filters: Initial system with one or two years of replacement filters at a packaged priceWhole-home solutions: Combination packages including point-of-entry filtration with point-of-use refinement for drinking waterSeasonal promotions: Special pricing during key retail periods such as the start of summer when water consumption peaks
Bundle purchasing provides several advantages beyond cost savings. It ensures customers have replacement filters on hand when needed, preventing the temptation to delay filter changes due to the inconvenience of ordering. It also simplifies budgeting by converting ongoing maintenance costs into a single upfront investment.
For example, a typical bundle might include a benchtop purifier system plus three replacement filter sets (representing 18-36 months of use depending on household size) at a price 20-30% below purchasing items separately. This approach rewards customer loyalty whilst ensuring systems receive proper maintenance.

Environmental Impact: Reducing Plastic Waste
One of the most compelling reasons to choose water filtration over bottled water relates to environmental sustainability. Australia's bottled water consumption has grown substantially over the past two decades, creating significant environmental challenges.
According to Clean Up Australia, Australians purchase approximately 600 million litres of bottled water annually, resulting in an estimated 373 million plastic bottles entering the waste stream. Whilst recycling rates have improved, a substantial portion still ends up in landfills or, worse, in natural environments where plastic persists for centuries.
By switching to filtered tap water, households can virtually eliminate their contribution to plastic bottle waste. A family of four consuming two litres of bottled water daily would purchase approximately 730 bottles annually. Over a decade, that single household would prevent more than 7,000 plastic bottles from entering the waste stream.
Beyond plastic reduction, bottled water production requires substantial energy for manufacturing, filling, and transportation. Research indicates that producing bottled water consumes up to 2,000 times more energy than producing the same volume of tap water, contributing to greenhouse gas emissions and climate change.
Awesome Water's filtration systems offer an environmentally responsible alternative that delivers superior water quality without the environmental costs associated with bottled water consumption. This alignment of personal health benefits with environmental responsibility resonates strongly with environmentally conscious Australian consumers.
Health Benefits: What Awesome Water Products Remove
Understanding what contaminants water filtration systems remove helps consumers appreciate the health benefits these products provide. Australian tap water generally meets safety standards, but it can still contain various substances that consumers may wish to reduce or eliminate.
Chlorine and Chloramines
Municipal water treatment facilities use chlorine or chloramines to disinfect water and prevent bacterial growth during distribution. Whilst effective for this purpose, these chemicals can create unpleasant taste and odour. More importantly, chlorine can react with organic matter in water to form disinfection by-products (DBPs) such as trihalomethanes, which have been classified as potential carcinogens.
Activated carbon filtration, a core technology in most Awesome Water products, effectively removes chlorine and reduces chloramines, improving taste whilst reducing exposure to potentially harmful by-products.
Heavy Metals
Lead, mercury, cadmium, and other heavy metals can enter drinking water through corrosion of pipes and fixtures, industrial contamination, or natural geological sources. Even low-level chronic exposure to heavy metals can impact neurological development in children and contribute to various health issues in adults.
Advanced filtration technologies including ion exchange, activated carbon, and reverse osmosis can effectively reduce heavy metal concentrations. Systems specifically designed for heavy metal removal can achieve reduction rates exceeding 95% for most concerning contaminants.
Microplastics and Nanoplastics
Emerging research has revealed widespread microplastic contamination in water sources globally, including Australian tap water. These particles originate from the breakdown of larger plastic items, synthetic clothing fibres, and microbeads in personal care products.
Whilst the health implications of microplastic ingestion remain under investigation, reducing exposure represents a precautionary approach. Filtration systems with pore sizes smaller than microplastic particles—particularly reverse osmosis systems and high-quality carbon block filters—can trap these contaminants before they reach drinking glasses.
Pharmaceutical Residues and Hormones
Trace amounts of pharmaceutical compounds, including antibiotics, hormones, and other medications, have been detected in water supplies worldwide. These substances enter water systems through human excretion and improper medication disposal.
Conventional water treatment doesn't effectively remove all pharmaceutical residues. Advanced home filtration systems, particularly those incorporating reverse osmosis or activated carbon, can significantly reduce these trace contaminants, though removal efficiency varies depending on the specific compound.
Fluoride (For Those Who Choose Removal)
Fluoride is added to many Australian water supplies as a dental health measure, but some consumers prefer to remove it. Specialised fluoride filters using activated alumina or reverse osmosis membranes can reduce fluoride concentrations by 90% or more for those who choose this option.
Bacteria, Cysts, and Parasites
Whilst Australian municipal water is generally microbiologically safe, households using tank water, bore water, or those in areas with compromised infrastructure may face biological contamination risks. Giardia and Cryptosporidium cysts, in particular, can cause severe gastrointestinal illness.
Filtration systems with absolute pore sizes of 0.5 microns or smaller can physically remove these parasites. Additionally, ultraviolet (UV) disinfection systems provide chemical-free microbial inactivation for comprehensive protection.

Cost Savings: The Financial Case for Water Filtration
Beyond health and environmental benefits, water filtration systems offer substantial financial advantages compared to bottled water consumption. Awesome Water® emphasises potential annual savings of $3,600 for households switching from bottled water to filtered tap water.
Let's examine this calculation with specific scenarios:
Scenario 1: Family of Four Using Bottled Water
Assumptions:
Daily water consumption: 2 litres per person = 8 litres per familyCost of bottled water: $2.50 per litre (average for single-serve bottles)Annual consumption: 8 litres × 365 days = 2,920 litresAnnual cost: 2,920 litres × $2.50 = $7,300
If purchasing larger multi-packs instead of single-serve bottles:
Cost per litre: approximately $1.00Annual cost: 2,920 litres × $1.00 = $2,920
Scenario 2: Benchtop Water Purifier
Costs:
Initial system purchase: $300-$500Annual filter replacement: $120-$180First year total: $420-$680Subsequent years: $120-$180 annually
Even comparing against the lower-cost bulk bottled water scenario, a household would save $2,240-$2,800 in the first year and $2,740-$2,800 in subsequent years.
Scenario 3: Whole-House Filtration System
Initial system purchase and installation: $1,500-$3,500Annual filter replacement: $200-$400First year total: $1,700-$3,900Subsequent years: $200-$400 annually
Whilst whole-house systems require higher initial investment, they provide filtered water to all household taps and offer additional savings through:
Appliance protection: Reduced sediment and mineral buildup extends water heater, washing machine, and dishwasher lifespan by an estimated 20-30%Soap and detergent efficiency: Filtered water requires less soap and detergent for effective cleaning, reducing household chemical costs by 15-25%Plumbing protection: Reduced corrosion and scaling minimise plumbing repairs and fixture replacement
When these secondary benefits are factored in, whole-house systems typically achieve payback within 2-4 years for most households.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between water filters and water purifiers?
Water filters remove physical contaminants and chemicals through mechanical filtration and adsorption, typically addressing particles, chlorine, and some dissolved substances. Water purifiers go further by also eliminating microbiological contaminants including bacteria, viruses, and cysts through additional technologies such as UV treatment or reverse osmosis membranes. Awesome Water offers both types depending on the level of treatment required for your specific water source.
How often do Awesome Water filters need replacement?
Filter replacement frequency varies by product and usage. Benchtop and under-sink systems typically require filter changes every 6-12 months depending on water quality and household consumption. Whole-house systems may need annual filter replacement for carbon stages but sediment pre-filters might require more frequent changes (every 3-6 months) in high-sediment water. Awesome Water's filter change service provides scheduled reminders and professional replacement to ensure systems maintain optimal performance.
Can water filtration systems remove fluoride from Australian tap water?
Yes, but only specific filtration technologies effectively remove fluoride. Standard activated carbon filters cannot remove fluoride. Awesome Water's specialised fluoride removal systems use activated alumina media or reverse osmosis membranes that can reduce fluoride concentrations by 90-95% or more. These systems are marketed as the company's "#1 Fluoride Filter on the Market" for customers who choose fluoride removal.
Do Awesome Water systems work with both town water and tank water?
Absolutely. Awesome Water offers solutions suitable for all water sources including municipal supply, tank water, and bore water. However, the appropriate system depends on your water source. Tank and bore water typically require more comprehensive treatment including sediment filtration and microbial protection through UV systems, whilst town water usually needs refinement for chlorine, taste, and trace contaminants. Consulting with Awesome Water representatives helps identify the best configuration for your specific water source.
What's covered under the three-year warranty?
Awesome Water's three-year warranty covers manufacturing defects and component failures under normal operating conditions. This includes housings, taps, fittings, and structural elements. The warranty does not cover consumable items such as filter cartridges, which are designed for periodic replacement, nor damage from improper installation, use outside specified parameters, or external factors such as water hammer or freezing. Warranty coverage requires purchase from authorised dealers and typically requires registration after purchase.
Is professional installation necessary or can I install systems myself?
Installation requirements vary by system complexity. Benchtop purifiers and countertop coolers typically require no installation beyond connecting a diverter valve to your existing tap—most customers can complete this in 15-30 minutes. Under-sink systems require basic plumbing skills including shutting off water supply, drilling a hole for the dedicated tap, and connecting water lines. Whole-house systems generally require professional installation due to the need to integrate with main water lines and ensure proper placement, sizing, and pressure regulation. Awesome Water provides detailed installation instructions and video tutorials, and professional installation services are available for all systems.
How much money can households realistically save by switching from bottled to filtered water?
Savings depend on current bottled water consumption patterns. A family of four consuming 8 litres daily of single-serve bottled water at typical convenience store prices ($2.50/litre) would spend approximately $7,300 annually. Even purchasing bulk multi-packs at reduced prices ($1.00/litre) still costs roughly $2,920 per year. A benchtop filtration system costing $400 initially plus $150 annually for replacement filters saves $2,370-$6,750 in the first year and $2,770-$7,150 annually thereafter. Larger whole-house systems with higher initial costs still typically achieve payback within 6-18 months for households currently purchasing bottled water.
