IS THIS THE RIGHT SYSTEM FOR YOU?

Targeted Nitrate Reduction

Designed for water supplies where nitrate contamination is a known concern. The NIT10 filter is constructed using materials that meet FDA standards, ensuring the highest quality and safety for your peace of mind.
Rural Water Focus

Supports water commonly affected by agricultural runoff and environmental exposure.
Simple, Add-On Solution

Works best as part of a broader filtration system
Easy Installation

Attach directly to your kitchen tap for an uninterrupted supply of filtered, remineralized water, no electricity needed.

HOW THE SYSTEM WORKS

1

REMOVE

Nitrate reduction via dedicated filtration stage
Carbon reduces chemicals and improves taste

2

RESTORE

(Optional Mineral Balance)

After filtration, water can be remineralised to:

Improve taste and mouthfeel
Reintroduce calcium and magnesium

3

ACTIVATE

(Optional Upgrade)

Hydrogen systems can be added as an optional enhancement layer.

FAQ

Find the most frequently asked questions below.

The Nitrate X system is specifically designed to reduce nitrates in drinking water using a selective ion-exchange resin.
It also includes a carbon + KDF pre-filter, which helps reduce:
- Chlorine and treatment chemicals
- Heavy metals such as lead and aluminium
- Agricultural chemicals and organic contaminants
- Taste and odour
This creates a safer, cleaner base before nitrate reduction.
The NIT10 filter is designed to reduce approximately 90–95% of nitrates, depending on:
- Your starting nitrate levels
- Water usage
- Flow rate and contact time
Because nitrate levels vary significantly across New Zealand, actual performance depends on your specific water source.
Not usually.
Nitrate filters are most relevant for:
- Rural or agricultural areas
- Bore or well water
- Locations with known nitrate issues
If you're on town supply and unsure, it’s best to check your local water report or test your water before choosing this system.
No, this system is designed for dissolved contaminants (like nitrates), not microorganisms.
If your water source has potential bacterial risk (e.g. tank water), you may need to add an ultrafiltration stage for biological protection.
Yes.
The carbon + KDF stage improves:
- Taste
- Odour
- Overall drinking experience
The nitrate stage itself is focused on safety, but the system as a whole delivers noticeably cleaner water.
Yes, partially.
The carbon + KDF filter helps reduce heavy metals such as:
- Lead
- Aluminium
- Mercury
This stage also helps protect the nitrate filter and improve overall water quality.
Filter lifespan depends on your nitrate levels and usage.
As a guide:
- Around 1200 litres at ~10 mg/L nitrate levels
- Higher nitrate levels = shorter lifespan
- Lower nitrate levels = longer lifespan
For most households, this typically ranges from 6–12 months.
