How To Identify A Genuine Water Filter

Licensed. Insured. Trusted.

At Clean & Clear Water, we operate with full licensing and insurance. Unlike many companies that work unlicensed, we are fully compliant to deliver safe, professional, and reliable installations.

Authenticity you can see

Every part we use at Clean & Clear Water - including elbows, tubing, housings and valves is genuine John Guest (JG) and USA made.

Each component is permanently moulded with JG and country of origin during production, so authenticity is guaranteed.

Unlike stickers that can easily be copied, moulded identification ensures you get genuine, food-grade parts every time.

The RISKS of using imitation parts

• Low-quality imitation parts often lack strict quality controlled testing, which can reduce how well your water filter performs.
• When filtration performance drops, your drinking water is not as clean as it should be.
• Poorly made components can also fail under pressure, leading to leaks and potential water damage in homes and businesses.

Avoid imitation Reverse Osmosis Systems

Not every system advertised online delivers the same performance. Some imitation Reverse Osmosis systems use lower-grade components that are not certified food-safe.

Many of these systems lack permanent manufacturer markings or traceability on the housing. Lower quality materials can crack or leak under pressure, which increases the risk of water damages to your home or workplace.

For quality assurance or peace of mind, always choose a Reverse Osmosis system built with certified food-grade materials and permanently moulded identification.

Don't settle for imitation Whole House Systems

Not all whole house systems are the same. Some replica systems sold online come with no installation, no lifetime warranty, and are not designed for Australian water conditions.

These imitation products can lead to significant financial losses and plumbing issues when customers are baited online.

Our whole house system includes professional installation by licensed plumbers, a lifetime warranty and filters specifically designed for Australian water supplies.

Not all Water Coolers are built the same

Not all Water Coolers are built the same. Lower-grade imported systems can develop issues like leaks, freezing, or cooling failure early on.

At Clean & Clear Water, we only supply our water coolers from a 100% Australian Owned company. Each unit comes with a warranty for quality, reliability and peace of mind.
