Common questions
How often do I change the cartridge?
We recommend every 6 months. The HF1M-R is rated for up to 65,000 litres.
Does it come with a tap?
No. It connects to the cold water line of your existing sink tap, so filtered water comes out of that tap.
Can I use it on rainwater?
Rainwater needs pre-treatment first: a 20 micron pleated cartridge, then a 1 micron spun cartridge, then UV.
Who should install it?
We recommend a licensed plumber or certified technician, and it must meet local plumbing rules.

The Davey Microlene HF1M filters all the cold water through your existing kitchen tap, so you don't need a second tap.
It's a 5-stage cartridge filtering to 1 micron, and it reduces chlorine, taste, odour, sediment and THMs, with softening beads to help with scale. Flow is up to 9.5 L/min. It's certified to AS/NZS 3497 and tested to NSF/ANSI 42 and 53. The HF1M-R replacement cartridge twists in and out.
Change the cartridge every 6–12 months. 5-year manufacturer's warranty. Rainwater may need sediment and UV treatment first.
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.
