1. Safe, Clean Drinking Water - 20,865 Baht


  • A quality filter removes bacteria, sediment, chlorine, and chemicals, making your tank water safe for drinking, cooking, and brushing teeth.

  • Great for when you're unsure about the marina’s or dock's water source.


2. Protects Your Water Tanks

  • Sediment and minerals in untreated water can build up over time, leading to algae growth, staining, or contamination.

  • Filtering before the water enters your tanks helps keep them cleaner for longer.


3. Improves Taste & Smell

  • Water from docks can often have a chlorinated or metallic taste, especially in older marinas or rural areas.

  • Carbon filters remove odors and off-flavors, giving you fresh-tasting water onboard.


4. Extends the Life of Appliances

  • Sediment and hard water can clog or damage pumps, water heaters, taps, coffee makers, and ice machines.

  • A filter system reduces wear and tear, saving you maintenance costs down the line.


5. Less Need for Bottled Water

  • Reduces plastic waste and the hassle of storing and lugging heavy bottles onboard.

  • You get fresh, filtered water straight from your tank, which is great for long trips or remote anchorages.


6. Helps During Long-Term Cruising or Liveaboard Life

  • Ideal for cruisers or liveaboards who regularly top up tanks from various sources.

  • Filters provide peace of mind whether you’re filling from dock water, a rainwater catchment, or a watermaker system.


7. Cost-Effective Over Time

  • While there's an upfront cost, the filters pay for themselves quickly compared to constantly buying bottled water or dealing with contaminated tank issues.


8. Customizable Setup

  • You can tailor your system to your needs—e.g., pre-filter for sediment, carbon for taste, and even UV or ceramic filters for biological safety.
