Triple 20″ Big Blue Whole House Rainwater & Mains Water Filtration System
The Triple 20″ Big Blue Whole House Water Filtration System is a high-flow, three-stage water filtration solution designed for Australian homes, farms, rural properties and commercial applications using rainwater tanks or mains water supplies.
Featuring three premium 20″ × 4.5″ Big Blue filter housings, this system combines washable sediment filtration, activated carbon filtration and silver-impregnated carbon filtration to help improve water clarity, taste and odour throughout your property.
Installed on the main water supply, the system filters water before it reaches household taps, showers, hot water systems and appliances.
Its larger 20-inch cartridges provide increased filtration surface area compared with equivalent 10-inch systems, making it a practical choice for properties requiring higher water flow and comprehensive whole-house filtration.
Three-Stage Whole House Water Filtration
Stage 1 – 5-Micron Washable Sediment Filter
The first stage features a 20″ × 4.5″ 5-micron pleated washable sediment cartridge.
This filter helps capture:
- Dirt, sand and silt
- Rust and suspended sediment
- Particles commonly found in rainwater tanks
- Particulate matter entering household plumbing
Removing sediment at the first stage helps improve water clarity while reducing sediment build-up in the downstream carbon cartridges.
The washable pleated design allows the cartridge to be cleaned and reused according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
Stage 2 – 5-Micron Carbon Block Filter
The second stage features a 20″ × 4.5″ 5-micron activated carbon block cartridge.
Activated carbon helps reduce:
- Chlorine commonly found in mains water
- Unpleasant water tastes
- Unwanted odours
- Certain organic contaminants, depending on cartridge specifications
This additional filtration stage helps improve the taste and odour of household water while providing further particulate filtration.
Stage 3 – 5-Micron Silver-Impregnated Carbon Block Filter
The third stage features a 20″ × 4.5″ 5-micron silver-impregnated carbon block cartridge.
The activated carbon provides additional taste and odour filtration, while the silver impregnation offers bacteriostatic protection, helping inhibit bacterial growth within the filter media.
This final stage is particularly useful for selected rainwater and tank water filtration applications where additional carbon filtration is desired.

High-Flow Water Filtration
Big Blue filtration systems are designed for applications requiring greater water flow than smaller residential filter housings.
Suitably configured systems may accommodate flow rates of up to 150 litres per minute. However, the actual flow rate of this triple-stage system depends on the installed cartridges, incoming pressure, pipework and water conditions.
The three-stage arrangement provides a practical solution for properties requiring sediment and carbon filtration throughout the premises.
Ideal for Rainwater Tank Filtration
Rainwater collected from roofs and stored in tanks can contain dirt, sediment and organic matter.
The Triple 20″ Big Blue rainwater filtration system helps reduce suspended particles while providing additional activated carbon filtration to improve taste and odour.
Its three-stage design makes it suitable for properties wanting more comprehensive filtration than a single or twin cartridge system.
The system can also be installed before UV disinfection equipment as part of a broader rainwater treatment setup.
Recommended Applications
- Whole house rainwater filtration
- Rainwater tank filtration
- Mains water filtration
- Rural homes and farms
- Off-grid properties
- Residential and selected commercial applications
- Household sediment and carbon filtration
- Pre-filtration before UV disinfection
- Properties requiring larger-capacity filter cartridges
Rainwater & Mains Water Filtration
For rainwater supplies, the washable sediment cartridge helps capture suspended particles, while the two carbon stages provide additional filtration for taste and odour.
For mains water supplies, the system helps reduce sediment, chlorine, unpleasant tastes and odours.
The silver-impregnated carbon cartridge also helps inhibit bacterial growth within its filter media.
Important: This system does not include UV disinfection. Silver-impregnated carbon filtration is not a substitute for disinfection, and untreated rainwater intended for drinking may require additional treatment.
