The Aquano Klarify M-220 is a high-flow 2-stage whole house mains water filtration system designed for medium to large homes.

Built around large-capacity 20" Jumbo filter housings, the M-220 combines 5 micron sediment filtration with carbon block filtration to help reduce sediment, chlorine, chemicals, pesticides, unpleasant taste and odour before water is distributed throughout the home.

With a maximum flow rate of 120 L/min, the M-220 provides significantly greater flow capacity for homes with higher simultaneous water demand.

Choose between two system versions:

Premium — AKM220 provides the complete package with additional accessories including pressure gauges, a pressure regulating valve and weather-protection housing covers.

Standard — AKTEM220 is the streamlined version, providing the core two-stage filtration system without the additional premium accessories.

Both versions use the same PS2005J 5 micron sediment filter and CB2010J carbon block filter.

Product Options

Option Name: System Version

Premium — Aquano Klarify M-220 AKM220

The Premium Aquano Klarify M-220 is the complete version of Aquano's 20" Jumbo two-stage mains water filtration system.

It combines high-flow whole-house filtration with additional equipment for pressure monitoring, pressure regulation and weather protection.

Along with the core filtration system, the Premium AKM220 includes:

• Pressure gauges
• Pressure regulating valve
• Weather-protection housing covers

This makes the Premium version ideal for customers wanting the complete M-220 setup with the additional system accessories already included.

Stage 1 — PS2005J 5 Micron Polyspun Sediment Filter

The first stage uses the Aquano PS2005J 20" Jumbo polyspun sediment cartridge.

Its graded-density construction provides depth filtration down to 5 microns, helping capture:

• Dirt
• Rust
• Silt
• Sand
• Other suspended sediment

Removing sediment at the first stage also helps protect the downstream carbon cartridge from excessive particulate loading.

Stage 2 — CB2010J Carbon Block Filter

Water then passes through the Aquano CB2010J 20" Jumbo carbon block cartridge.

The carbon filtration stage helps reduce chlorine, chemicals, pesticides, unpleasant taste and odour, improving the quality and taste of mains water supplied throughout the home.

How the 2-Stage Filtration Works

The Klarify M-220 uses two complementary filtration stages to treat incoming mains water before it is distributed throughout the property.

Stage 1 — 5 Micron Sediment Filtration

Water first passes through the PS2005J 20" Jumbo polyspun sediment cartridge.

The graded-density filter provides depth filtration down to 5 microns, helping capture sediment such as dirt, rust, silt and sand.

This first stage also helps reduce the amount of particulate matter reaching the carbon block cartridge.

Stage 2 — Carbon Block Filtration

After sediment filtration, water passes through the CB2010J 20" Jumbo carbon block cartridge.

The carbon stage helps reduce chlorine, chemicals, pesticides, unpleasant taste and odour.

Filtration Process

Mains Water → 5 Micron Sediment Filtration → Carbon Block Filtration → Filtered Water Throughout the Home

High-Flow 20" Jumbo Filtration

The M-220 uses 20" Jumbo housings, providing a larger filtration format for homes with greater water demand.

The system has a stated maximum flow rate of 120 L/min, making it particularly well suited to medium and larger households where multiple taps, showers or appliances may require water at the same time.

The larger filter format also provides substantially more filtration media than smaller cartridge systems.

Whole House Mains Water Filtration

The Aquano Klarify M-220 is designed for installation on the incoming mains water supply.

Rather than treating water at a single kitchen tap, the M-220 filters incoming water before it is distributed throughout the home.

This provides a whole-house solution for customers wanting sediment and carbon filtration across multiple water outlets.

Best Suited For

• Medium to large homes
• Mains water supplies
• Higher household water demand
• Whole-house water filtration
• Chlorinated mains water
• Water with unpleasant taste or odour
• Sediment reduction
• Dirt, rust, silt and sand
• Chlorine reduction
• Reducing selected chemicals and pesticides
• Protecting downstream equipment from sediment
• Customers wanting 20" Jumbo filtration
• Customers requiring higher whole-house flow capacity
• Homes wanting a choice between a full-accessory and streamlined system

Key Specifications

System Dimensions

430 × 600 × 210 mm

The taller M-220 configuration accommodates its 20" Jumbo filtration housings while retaining a compact twin-housing whole-house layout.

Premium Accessory Package

The Premium AKM220 adds the full accessory package to the core filtration system.

Pressure Gauges

The Premium system includes pressure gauges, allowing convenient pressure monitoring at the filtration system.

Pressure Regulating Valve

A pressure regulating valve is included for pressure management as part of the system installation.

Weather-Protection Housing Covers

The Premium system includes weather-protection housing covers to provide additional protection for the 20" Jumbo filter housings.

These accessories make the AKM220 the more complete option for customers who want the full M-220 setup.

Reversible Installation

The Klarify M-220 features reversible installation capability, providing flexibility when integrating the filtration system with existing plumbing.

This can be useful where incoming pipe direction or the available installation location determines the preferred orientation of the system.

Installation

The Aquano Klarify M-220 is designed for installation on a mains water supply using 1" BSP connections.

Installation should account for:

• Incoming water-flow direction
• Suitable mounting location
• Available vertical clearance
• Operating pressure
• Access to the housings for future cartridge replacement

The system operates within a specified pressure range of 200–875 kPa and temperature range of 0–52°C.

Professional installation is recommended where required to ensure the system is correctly integrated with the property's mains water plumbing.

Filter Maintenance

Both the Premium and Standard M-220 use the same replacement cartridges:

Stage 1: Aquano PS2005J — 20" Jumbo 5 Micron Polyspun Sediment Cartridge
Stage 2: Aquano CB2010J — 20" Jumbo Carbon Block Cartridge

Replacement frequency will depend on incoming water quality, household consumption, sediment loading and local mains-water conditions.

Monitor water flow and filtration performance and replace cartridges when required.
