Frequently Asked Questions
Will this shower filter fit my bathroom?
Yes. The PureRain unit utilizes standard 1/2-inch female and male pipe threads compatible with all standard Australian shower arms, overhead ceiling outlets, and flexible handheld shower hoses.

No. The PureRain internal chamber is engineered to maintain high output volume (3.5 to 4.0 L/min), ensuring steady spray strength under normal residential water pressure.
How often do I need to change the cartridge?
For optimum chlorine and heavy metal reduction, replace the inner 15-stage cartridge every 6 months or after approximately 30,000 litres of water use.
Can I install this in a rental property?
Yes. Installation takes under two minutes, requires no permanent pipe modifications, and can be unscrewed and packed when moving out.
