What it removes
Clearer, fresher-tasting tank water
The Clarity Plus III takes out sediment and fine silt, plus the earthy taste and smell of tank water.
-
Dirt and debris
Grit and coarse particles from your tank.
-
Organic matter
Leaves and organic matter that collect in your tank.
-
Fine silt
The fine silt and particles that get past the first stage.
-
Earthy taste and smell
The musty taste and odour sediment filters leave behind.
It doesn't treat bacteria. See whole home UV systems.
How it works
Three stages, every tap
Tank water passes through each stage in order after your pump. Then it carries on to every tap in the house.
- Tank water in
Stage 1
Coarse sediment
Pleated sediment cartridge
20" Jumbo20 micronWaimana 20PL20
Catches the larger particles first: dirt, debris, leaves and organic matter from your tank. Starting coarse protects the stages after it.
Stage 2
Fine sediment
Polyspun sediment cartridge
20" Jumbo1 micronWaimana 20PP01
Captures the fine silt and particles that get past Stage 1. Water reaches the carbon block clear and ready for the final stage.
Stage 3
Carbon block
Carbon block cartridge
20" Jumbo5 micronWaimana 20CTO05
Removes the earthy, musty tastes and odours that sediment filters alone don't address.

Short on space
ConsiderA 20" cartridge is about double the length of a 10" one, so check there is room below the housing to change it.

Want to treat bacteria
Not this oneThis system removes sediment but doesn't treat bacteria or other micro-organisms. The Clarity Plus III + UV 48W bundle adds a 48W Waimana UV unit after the filter.

Common questions
Is the Clarity Plus III right for my home?
It's made for larger New Zealand homes and baches on rainwater or tank water where sediment and taste are both a concern. For a smaller home or lighter use, the Clarity III (10") covers the same job in a more compact format. On town water, the Essence range will suit you better.
How often do I change the cartridges?
Every 6–12 months, depending on how much sediment is in your water. Tank water with more silt shortens cartridge life. The larger 20" format usually lasts longer than a 10" system in the same conditions. The Clarity Plus III replacement kit has all three cartridges.
How is the Clarity Plus III different from the Clarity Plus II?
The Clarity Plus II is a 2-stage system focused on sediment. The Clarity Plus III adds a carbon block as the final stage, which tackles the organic tastes and odours sediment filters don't address. If your tank water smells earthy or tastes flat, the Clarity Plus III is the better choice.
Does the Clarity Plus III make rainwater safe to drink?
The Clarity Plus III removes sediment and particulates and organic tastes and odours. It does not treat bacteria or other micro-organisms. If you want to treat your rainwater for drinking, a UV system added after the filter is the recommended next step.

Full product details
Read the full description
The Waiora Clarity Plus III, made by Waimana, is a 3-stage whole house filter for rural and tank water. It filters the water to every tap and helps protect your pipes, pumps and appliances from sediment.
The stages are a 20 µm poly pleated cartridge, a 1 µm polyspun cartridge and a 5 µm carbon block for taste and odour, all in 20" jumbo housings. The housings have stainless threaded 25 mm BSP ports and sit on a powder-coated steel bracket, and a housing spanner is included. We recommend a maximum working pressure of 85 psi (6 bar), with 125 psi (8.5 bar) the upper limit.
Change the cartridges every 6–12 months. 3-year manufacturer's warranty on the housing.
If you drink your tank water, pair it with filters plus UV.
We're NZ owned in Te Rapa, Hamilton. If it's not right, we'll put it right.
