Pre-Filters
Our advanced pre-filters are designed to target specific contaminants before water reaches your ionizer or compatible water system. From chlorine and heavy metals to fluoride and VOCs, each filter tackles a different problem to improve water quality, reduce scale, and protect your equipment.
Built from high-grade, NSF-certified materials, these filters are suitable for both residential and commercial use and ensure your system performs at its best from day one.
Not sure which pre-filter to choose?
Our team checks your local water report and recommends the best combination based on your actual water conditions — so you get clean, safe, and optimised filtration without the guesswork. Contact our support team if you need assistance.
Pre-Filter Brackets
The Pre-Filter Brackets are essential for installing pre-filters in your water filtration system. These brackets provide sturdy support and allow for easy connection of 1/4 inch tubing, ensuring secure and stable installation.
Available in three configurations – Single, Double, and Triple brackets.
Each pre-filter can be purchased with its corresponding bracket, ensuring hassle-free setup. Additionally, if you purchase two or three pre-filters, you will receive a double or triple bracket, respectively, facilitating convenient installation of multiple filters.
Please note, if you do not require a Bracket, select the Replacement Filter option when purchasing.Â
Quick Installation Guide
Before installing or replacing the pre-filter, turn off the cold water feed valve or the water connection to your system, as shown in your instruction manual.
1. Mount the Pre-Filter
Insert the pre-filter into the supplied mounting bracket. Twist it clockwise until it locks firmly into place.
2. Connect to the Cold Water Supply
Attach ¼-inch tubing to your cold water feed valve. This may come from a countertop or under-counter setup. Run the tubing into the inlet side of the pre-filter.
3. Connect to the Ionizer
From the outlet side of the pre-filter, connect a second length of ¼-inch tubing and attach it to the inlet of your ionizer or alternative water system.
FAQs
What is the purpose of a pre-filter?
A pre-filter removes specific contaminants from your water before it reaches your ionizer or other water filtration system. This improves water quality, protects internal components, and supports better performance and longevity.
How often should I replace the pre-filter cartridge?
Pre-filters should typically be replaced every 6 months to maintain optimal flow and filtration performance. However, this may vary depending on your water quality and usage. Signs of clogging or reduced flow indicate it’s time to replace.
Â
Is installation complicated?
No. Installation is quick and straightforward. Each filter comes with standard ¼-inch fittings and mounts easily using the supplied bracket. You can find a full installation guide above.
Can the pre-filter be used with systems other than Aqualine ionizers?
Yes. While designed for Aqualine Prime Ionizers, the pre-filters use standard inline connections and may be compatible with other water systems that accept similar fittings. Always check compatibility or contact support before installing with non-ionizer setups.|
Is the pre-filter compatible with well water?
Yes, but well water often contains higher levels of sediment or contaminants. Additional filtration (such as Reverse Osmosis) may be required before using a pre-filter with well water systems. Contact us for tailored advice.
Can I install the pre-filter on my countertop or under my counter?
Yes. The compact design allows for flexible installation. You can mount it above or below your counter, depending on your available space and setup.
Will it affect the performance of my water system?
Yes — in a good way. A quality pre-filter improves water entering your system, which helps reduce internal buildup and maintain consistent performance. This is especially important for ionizers or any equipment sensitive to water quality.
Does the pre-filter require maintenance?
Minimal. Just check occasionally for reduced flow or visible clogging. Replace the cartridge as needed — usually every 6 months — to keep it working effectively.
