How to choose a water filter: start with where you use water

The most common mistake when buying a water filter on sale is choosing on price alone. A filter only helps if it suits the way your household actually uses water. Start with the outlet that matters most to you.

If you want Filter type Evolved H2O option Installation
Filtered drinking water with no installation Glass filter jug 3.5L Glass Water Filter Jug None, fill and pour
Drinking water with a focus on fluoride reduction Electric benchtop filter HydroX Electric Water Filter None, sits on the bench
Filtered water straight from the kitchen tap Tap filter Advanced Tap Filter Screws onto most kitchen taps
Filtered water in the shower Shower filter Advanced Shower Filter Fits between the shower arm and head
Filtered water for your kids' bath Bath filter Advance Bath Filter Attaches to the bath spout

Drinking water: jug, benchtop or tap?

All three filter the water you drink and cook with. The difference is convenience and focus.

  • Glass filter jug: the simplest option. The 3.5L Glass Water Filter Jug is made of thick glass with a bamboo lid and handle, needs no installation and suits renters.
  • Electric benchtop filter: the HydroX Electric Water Filter filters water at the press of a button, and fluoride reduction is its main focus. If fluoride is your main concern, this is the one to look at.
  • Tap filter: the Advanced Tap Filter gives you filtered water on demand from the kitchen tap. It fits around 99% of Australian kitchen taps, and the box includes a universal adaptor for threadless taps.

Shower and bath: filtering the water on your skin and hair

Drinking water filters do not help in the bathroom. If you notice a chlorine smell in the shower, or you want to filter the water your children bathe in, you need a filter made for that outlet. The Advanced Shower Filter is designed to reduce chlorine in your shower water, and the Advance Bath Filter attaches to the bath spout and filters the water as the tub fills.

What to check before you buy a water filter on sale

A Black Friday price is only a good deal if the filter does what you need for as long as you need it. Check these five things first.

1. What it is designed to reduce, and the evidence

Different filters are built for different jobs. Some are made mainly for taste and odour, others for specific substances such as fluoride or chlorine. Look for the specific substances a filter is designed to reduce and the test results behind those claims, not just general wording like "purifies water". Our product pages list what each filter is designed to reduce.

2. Cartridge life and refill cost

The purchase price is only part of the cost. Every filter needs its cartridge replaced, so check how often and what a refill costs before you buy.

Filter Replace the cartridge
3.5L Glass Water Filter Jug About every 4 months
HydroX Electric Water Filter About every 6 months (one set of A and B cartridges)
Advanced Tap Filter About every 3 months
Advanced Shower Filter About every 3 months
Advance Bath Filter About every 3 months

If you choose a subscription on your filter, your repeat deliveries switch to the replacement cartridge at 40% off, so you never have to remember to reorder.

3. Fit and installation

Check that the filter will fit before the sale ends. Jugs and benchtop filters need no installation. Tap filters need a compatible kitchen tap, and shower filters fit between a standard shower arm and shower head. If you are unsure, check the fitting guide on the product page.

4. Returns and warranty

Buying during a sale should not mean taking a risk. Every Evolved H2O order during Black Friday comes with 60-day returns, and our filters carry a 1-year warranty covering defects and malfunctions.

5. The real saving

Compare the sale price with what the product normally sells for, and add the cost of the first year of cartridges. A slightly higher price with cheaper refills can cost less over a year than a cheap unit with expensive cartridges.

Do water filters remove fluoride?

Some do, but many do not. According to HealthyWA, the NHMRC supports fluoridating water supplies within a range of 0.6 to 1.1 milligrams per litre, and specifies a maximum of 1.5 milligrams per litre for fluoride in drinking water. The same page notes that filtering systems containing ion exchange resins, activated alumina or reverse osmosis membranes can remove most fluoride.

That means a basic carbon filter designed for taste and odour is not the right choice if fluoride is your main concern. Boiling water does not remove dissolved minerals like fluoride either. In our range, the HydroX Electric Water Filter is the filter designed with fluoride reduction as its main focus. Its product page shows the test results.

Are shower filters worth it?

Chlorine is added to most Australian town water to keep it safe as it travels through the pipes. The Australian Drinking Water Guidelines set a health-based guideline value of 5 mg/L for chlorine, and many people can taste or smell it at much lower levels.

A shower filter will not change the water your supplier delivers, but it is designed to reduce the chlorine in the water that reaches you in the shower. If you notice a chlorine smell when you shower, or you simply prefer filtered water on your hair and skin, a shower filter is one of the most affordable ways to filter that water at home.

Black Friday water filter gift ideas

Black Friday is also a good time to buy Christmas gifts. Water filters make a practical present for someone setting up a new home or anyone who drinks a lot of water.

Key takeaways

  • The Evolved H2O Black Friday sale ends at 11:59 pm AEDT on Friday 27 November 2026, with up to 60% off storewide, free Australian delivery and 60-day returns.
  • Choose a filter by where you use water most: a jug, benchtop or tap filter for drinking water, and a shower or bath filter for the bathroom.
  • Check what a filter is designed to reduce and the test results behind it, not just the price.
  • Factor in cartridge life and refill cost to see the real cost over a year.
  • If fluoride is your main concern, choose a filter designed for fluoride reduction. Basic taste and odour filters and boiling do not remove it.
