Bore Water Treatment Systems for Sydney Homes
Bore water is a valuable resource for many Sydney properties, but untreated water can introduce a wide range of issues, from iron staining and mineral build-up to acidity, odours, and bacterial contamination. Every bore has its own water chemistry, which means a tailored approach is essential.
At Full House Water Filtration, we design bore water treatment systems that address the exact problems affecting your supply. Our solutions improve water clarity, reduce odours and protect your home’s plumbing, appliances and fixtures, ensuring your bore water is safe, reliable and pleasant to use.
Why Bore Water Needs Treatment
Unlike town water, bore water often contains naturally occurring minerals, dissolved metals, or microorganisms. Without the right treatment, these impurities can cause structural damage, unpleasant smells, staining, and reduced water quality throughout the home.
Common Bore Water Issues We Fix
- Rotten egg odour caused by hydrogen sulphide
- Red or brown staining from iron
- Black staining caused by manganese
- Acidity that corrodes fixtures, pipes, and appliances
- Hardness leading to scale build-up
- Bacteria and microorganisms that require disinfection
- Sediment, turbidity, and cloudiness
- Salinity concerns affecting taste and plumbing lifespan
Our bore water treatment systems are custom-built based on laboratory testing, ensuring your home receives a system perfectly matched to your water chemistry.
How Our Bore Water Treatment Systems Work
We begin by analysing your bore water for minerals, metals, bacteria, and pH levels. Once we know what’s in your supply, we design a treatment system tailored to your property. This may include filtration, oxidation, softening, UV disinfection, or advanced media filters.
Treatment Methods May Include
- Multi-stage filtration to remove sediment and turbidity
- Oxidation systems for iron and manganese removal
- Carbon filtration to reduce odours and tastes
- UV disinfection for bacterial control
- Water softening for hardness and mineral build-up
- pH correction to prevent corrosion
- Salinity management solutions where required
The result is cleaner, clearer, and safer bore water suitable for household use.
If your home also uses rainwater or requires whole-house filtration, we offer complete residential water treatment solutions tailored to Sydney conditions.
Important Note About Drinking Bore Water
Not all bore water sources are suitable for drinking, even after treatment. Some bores require advanced purification to meet potable water standards. We provide full water testing to determine whether your bore can be made safe for drinking.
Benefits of Bore Water Treatment
Installing a customised system gives you:
- Cleaner water without unpleasant odours
- Stain-free showers, taps, fixtures, and laundry
- Extended life of appliances like hot water units and washing machines
- Protection against corrosion and mineral damage
- A safe and reliable water supply throughout your home
- Better garden health, as many plants react poorly to untreated bore water
Our systems ensure long-term performance, healthier water, and improved home comfort.
