Delicious Water At Your Fingertips Every Day with a Taqua Built-In Water Filter Tap

Experience safe, clean, delicious water from your kitchen sink tap every day with Taqua Built-In Water Filter Tap

Whywait Plumbing brings you safe and healthy drinking water with Taqua’s Built-In Filter Tap

With its partnership with Taqua, Whywait Plumbing brings you Japan’s finest built-in filtration sink mixer. No more separate water filters – Taqua’s innovative kitchen mixer tap integrates a water filter inside the pull-out spray.

Enjoy safe and clean drinking water with just a touch of a tap, as Taqua provides you with filtered water directly from your kitchen sink. With the human body being 70% water, it’s essential to provide your family with the healthiest option.

Taqua is a perfect blend of Japanese engineering and environmental safety. All Taqua water filter taps are made from lead-free materials, ensuring you and your loved ones have risk-free filtered water.

How do Taqua water filter taps function?

Taqua’s water filter eliminates free chlorine, soluble lead, small particles, and other impurities from your tap water. Not only that, it retains essential minerals that your body needs.

Say goodbye to bland, unappetising tap water and enjoy fresh, delicious water with Taqua’s filtration technology.

Taqua’s advanced filtration channel and self-cleaning system filter up to 4 litres of water per minute, ensuring maximum cleanliness. The sterilising ceramic materials also prevent bacteria from entering the filter tap, maintaining the highest standard of hygiene.

Forget about buying bottled water – tap water and bottled water have similar mineral content and hardness. Taqua removes chlorine from tap water while retaining its minerals, providing you with delicious and healthy drinking water in the comfort of your home.

 Safe drinking water with Taqua’s guaranteed lead-free filter taps

As a rule, just about every tap available in Australia today is manufactured in brass, where lead is combined with copper and zinc to create the brass.

taqua water filter taps are manufactured 100% lead-freeTap manufacturers and importers confirm that 90% of taps available in Australia contain lead. Australian Standards have always legally permitted this use of lead in brass.

The exact amount of lead in the brass taps varies. Most of the tap parts coming into contact with your drinking water contain up to 6% lead.

This lead in the taps results in an increased risk of lead leaching into your drinking water supply at higher levels than permitted by Australian and international standards.

As a result, drinking water from these taps has potential health consequences.

By comparison, every Taqua built-in water filter tap has no tap parts using lead that can ever come into contact with either the filtered water or the tap water. Taqua guarantee that the water from a Taqua tap is free from any lead leaching.

However, to comply with Australian Standards, the outer hose joint of every Taqua tap, which is part of the flexible pull-out hose, is manufactured from C3604BD brass. This outer hose joint has no possibility of any contact with any water in a Taqua tap. C3604BD brass is manufactured with up to 2% of lead.

Comparison of Taqua water filter tap over under sink and fridge filters

Unlike under-sink filters or fridge filters, Taqua’s water filter is integrated into the tap itself, eliminating the need for a separate filtering system.

Comparing Taqua Built-In Water Filter Tap with other styles of filter installations for your kitchen is valid. Space-saving is an obvious advantage compared to an under-sink style water filter, plus installation, maintenance, and filter replacement costs.

Below is a comparison chart with an under-sink filter and a fridge filter, highlighting why a Taqua tap is a superior solution if you require fresh, delicious water in your kitchen every day.
