A whole house water filtration system connects to the main water line entering a property, filtering water at the mains inlet or borehole pump before it reaches a single tap. Every kitchen tap, shower, geyser and washing machine receives the same treated water, rather than relying on a jug or a single under-sink cartridge alone. Little Luxury Water Filters supplies whole house water filtration system units for homes across Johannesburg, Sandton and the rest of South Africa, covering both municipal supply and borehole water.
Every whole house water filtration system Little Luxury supplies uses a sequence of filter stages housed in heavy-duty casings, fitted directly onto the incoming water line. Water passes through each stage in turn, so contaminants get removed progressively rather than all at once.
Little Luxury Water Filters' whole house water filtration system range covers three configurations, from an entry-level unit for a typical home to heavy-duty models for larger properties or commercial premises.
A 3-stage whole house water filtration system with 1 inch input and output ports, suited to municipal tap water. Includes a 5 year guarantee on the unit.

A heavy-duty system built around Water-Stream's automatic control valve, designed for stronger flow rates and problem water such as heavy metals and chloramines.

The larger Water-Stream configuration, built for large properties or heavy daily water use, using the same automatic control valve technology.
View ProductHomes on municipal supply mainly need a whole house water filtration system to remove chlorine taste, odour and sediment entering the network during maintenance work. Homes relying on a borehole face a different challenge, since raw groundwater often carries far more sediment, iron and occasional bacteria than treated municipal water. Little Luxury's dedicated guide on borehole water filters in South Africa covers the extra pre-filtration many borehole installations need.
Pricing for a whole house water filtration system in South Africa depends mainly on flow capacity and construction. Little Luxury's water filter system pricing guide breaks down the full range across product categories, but the chart and table below set out where each whole-house model and accessory sits.

Keeping a whole house water filtration system at full capacity means replacing the filter cartridges on schedule, generally every 6 to 12 months for the Gold Standard range, and cleaning the housings so sediment doesn't build up. Many households also keep a countertop water filter jug on hand for drinking water in the fridge, working on the same basic principle as any device designed to remove impurities from drinking water.
Little Luxury's full range of water filtration systems includes replacement cartridges and jug filters, so a household can keep every filter, from the main line to the fridge jug, on the same schedule.
A slim, fridge-friendly jug with a 4-stage filter cartridge lasting up to 3 months, useful for drinking water alongside a whole house water filtration system.

Three replacement cartridges for the Hawaiian and Seychelles jugs, each lasting up to 3 months.
View ProductThe filter cartridges inside a whole house water filtration system generally last between 6 and 12 months, depending on water quality and how much water the household uses. The outer housing and valve assembly last far longer, and Little Luxury's Gold Standard system carries a 5 year guarantee on the unit itself.
A multi stage whole house water filtration system combining sediment, carbon and, where needed, a UV stage generally removes the widest range of contaminants while keeping beneficial minerals in the water. Households on borehole water often add an extra sediment stage ahead of the main system for the healthiest result.
Bacteria can grow inside a filter cartridge or a jug reservoir if water sits for long periods without being replaced, or if a cartridge runs well past its replacement date. Regularly changing cartridges and rinsing housings during each replacement keeps bacterial growth to a minimum.
Filtered water is generally the healthier choice, since a whole house water filtration system removes chlorine, sediment and a range of chemical residues that municipal treatment leaves behind for taste and safety reasons. Tap water in South Africa meets national safety standards, but filtration improves taste and reduces exposure to residual chlorine and heavy metals.
