PURETEC RAINWATER FILTRATION + PUMP + UV + MAINS BACKUP

Puretec HYBRID-P9 Installation Brisbane & Gold Coast

JR Gas & Water supplies and installs the Puretec HYBRID-P9 across eligible Brisbane and Gold Coast properties for homes wanting an integrated rainwater pump, three-stage filtration, ultraviolet treatment and automatic mains-water backup in one protected cabinet.

The current Puretec HYBRID-P9-LF combines a Grundfos CMB-SP 3-47 pump, PM2 pressure controller, standard mains-to-rain controller, three 20-inch MaxiPlus™ filtration cartridges and Puretec Radfire™ UV treatment.

The P9 is particularly relevant where a home needs the complete rainwater treatment and pressure package but does not require the larger 86 L/min pump fitted to the HYBRID-P12.

Quick answer: the Puretec HYBRID-P9 uses a 0.5 kW Grundfos CMB-SP 3-47 pump rated at 50 L/min, with PL05MP2, CB05MP2 and PX01MP2 filtration followed by an RL6 UV lamp and RQS6 quartz sleeve. Automatic mains-to-rain changeover is standard. Puretec publishes the UV chamber at 70 L/min at 30 mJ/cm², so the P9's 50 L/min pump output remains within that published drinking-water UV design flow.

Puretec HYBRID-P9 at a Glance

Pump Flow 50 L/min

Pump Power 0.5 kW

Filtration 3 × 20"

Mains Backup Standard

What Is the Puretec HYBRID-P9?

The HYBRID-P9 is an integrated whole-house water pressure and treatment system from Puretec's HybridPlus P Series.

Instead of assembling a pump, filter housings, UV chamber and mains changeover as separate exposed components, the P9 packages the major equipment into one lockable outdoor cabinet.

Grundfos Pump

The P9 uses the CMB-SP 3-47 pressure pump with a manufacturer-published 50 L/min pump flow and 0.5 kW rated power.

Three-Stage Filtration

Three MaxiPlus™ 20-inch cartridges progressively manage sediment, taste, odour and other documented filtration targets before the UV chamber.

Automatic Mains Backup

Unlike the otherwise similar P3 configuration, the P9 includes Puretec's mains-to-rain controller as standard.

How the Puretec HYBRID-P9 Treats Water

PL05MP2

5-micron washable sediment filtration. The pleated first stage reduces coarse dirt, sand and suspended particulate before downstream treatment.

CB05MP2

5-micron bonded carbon filtration. Puretec uses this stage for reduction of unwanted taste, odour, chlorine, sediment and documented chemical-related treatment.

PX01MP2

1-micron graded sediment filtration. Fine particulate is reduced before the water enters the ultraviolet chamber.

Radfire™ UV

The final treatment stage uses an RL6 ultraviolet lamp inside the UV chamber for Puretec's documented microbiological treatment.

Filtration and UV perform different jobs. Cartridge filtration improves water clarity and reduces particulate and documented chemical/taste issues, while the UV stage provides the system's microbiological treatment.

What Does the HYBRID-P9 Treat?

Dirt, Sand & Sediment

The washable PL05MP2 and fine PX01MP2 stages progressively reduce suspended material down to the system's nominal 1-micron fine-sediment stage.

Taste & Odour

The CB05MP2 carbon stage provides treatment for unwanted taste, odour, chlorine and other documented carbon-treatment targets.

Microbiological Risk

The final Radfire™ UV stage is designed for treatment against microorganisms including E. coli, Giardia and Cryptosporidium cysts under the manufacturer's specified operating conditions.

UV treatment depends on water quality and clarity. Heavy sediment, excessive hardness, iron, manganese or other unsuitable source-water conditions can affect UV performance and may require additional treatment before the P9.

Why the P9's 50 L/min Pump Is Important

The HYBRID-P9 uses Puretec's smaller P-Series pump platform rather than the 86 L/min CMB-SP 5-47 fitted to the P12.

That makes the P9 relevant where the property needs automatic mains backup and whole-house treatment but the hydraulic demand does not justify stepping to the larger pump.

Pump flow should not be used as the only sizing measure. Household fixture demand, pipe sizing, tank position, suction distance, elevation and available UV treatment flow all need to be considered together.

Puretec HYBRID-P9 UV Flow Ratings

UV Dose	Published Flow	Application Context
40 mJ/cm²	54 L/min	Higher published UV dose at lower flow
30 mJ/cm²	70 L/min	Puretec identifies this as the industry-standard drinking-water UV dose
16 mJ/cm²	130 L/min	Lower UV dose at the higher published flow

The P9 pump is rated at 50 L/min, which is below all three published UV-chamber flow figures. Actual performance still depends on water clarity, lamp condition and the complete installed hydraulic system.

Who Is the Puretec HYBRID-P9 Best For?

Rainwater-Fed Homes

Designed for properties where tank water is used through internal household plumbing and requires filtration, pumping and UV treatment together.

Moderate Pump Demand

The 50 L/min pump platform can suit homes that do not need the larger 86 L/min P12 pressure system.

Homes Requiring Mains Backup

The included mains-to-rain controller provides a cleaner integrated pathway where municipal water needs to take over when tank water is unavailable.

Is the HYBRID-P9 Right for Your Home?

Good Choice

Whole-house rainwater is being used
A new pressure pump is required
UV treatment is required
50 L/min pump performance suits the home
Automatic mains backup is needed
Enclosed equipment is preferred
Regular filtration and UV servicing is acceptable

Consider Another Option

Existing pump is already suitable
Household requires materially higher pump flow
No mains backup is required
Only basic filtration is needed
Installation area cannot accommodate the cabinet
Source water requires specialist pre-treatment

JR Should Check

Rainwater tank condition
Tank outlet and suction run
Household peak flow requirement
Mains backup connection
Power supply
Cabinet location and access
Source-water quality where unusual

HYBRID-P9 Cabinet Size & Service Clearance

The cabinet itself is approximately 844 mm wide × 970 mm high × 472 mm deep. Additional room is required to open the access doors and service the UV equipment.

Side Clearance

Puretec's published drawing indicates approximately 380 mm on each side for the gull-wing access doors.

Overhead Clearance

Approximately 700 mm is shown above the unit so the vertical UV lamp can be removed during servicing.

Front Clearance

Approximately 260 mm is identified around the open-door service area in the published cabinet drawing.

Do not install the cabinet where future servicing is blocked. Cartridge changes, lamp replacement, quartz-sleeve maintenance and pump access all require practical working room.

Weather-Protected HybridPlus Cabinet

Puretec designed the HybridPlus enclosure for outdoor installations and describes the cabinet as weatherproof, rodent resistant and tamper resistant.

It uses lockable gull-wing access doors, concealed ventilation and adjustable feet. Provision is also included for securing the system to a suitable platform or slab.

Weather protected does not mean service access can be ignored. The cabinet still needs the manufacturer-required clearances and should not be buried behind landscaping, storage or permanent structures.

How the P9 Mains-to-Rain Changeover Works

The P9 includes a mains-to-rain controller as standard. This allows the installed system to use tank water under normal conditions while providing municipal-water backup through the correctly configured changeover arrangement.

The P9 therefore differs from the P3 even though both use the same CMB-SP 3-47 pump.

Mains backup still needs correct plumbing integration. The rainwater tank, municipal supply, isolation, backflow protection and household connection need to be configured appropriately for the property.

Rainwater Tank & Pump Installation Requirements

Tank outlet position checked
Tank condition considered
Suction-line sizing checked
Suction distance considered
Vertical lift considered
Air leaks in suction plumbing avoided
Suitable isolation provided
Mains backup plumbing confirmed
System base is stable and level
Electrical supply is available
Service clearances are maintained
System commissioned after installation

Puretec publishes self-priming up to 4 metres. Actual pump performance still depends on suction-line length, vertical lift, pipe diameter and friction loss.

Electrical Requirements for the HYBRID-P9

The current P9 specification is 220–240 V AC / 50 Hz with manufacturer-published maximum current consumption of 3.1–2.8 A.

Electrical power is required for the pressure pump, UV system and associated controls.

The UV lamp needs power to provide UV treatment. Puretec recommends keeping the UV system energised rather than repeatedly switching it on and off because lamp service life and microbiological treatment depend on correct operation.

Rainwater Quality & Pre-Treatment

The HYBRID-P9 is designed around common rainwater treatment, but source-water quality still matters.

Puretec specifically notes that unusually high levels of hardness, iron, manganese, suspended solids or other source-water problems can contribute to deposits on the quartz sleeve and reduce UV effectiveness.

Roof & Gutters

Keeping the roof catchment and gutters reasonably clean reduces the amount of material entering the tank.

Rainwater Tank

Heavy accumulated sludge or unusual source-water conditions can increase cartridge loading and servicing requirements.

Bore or Surface Water

Puretec allows other source-water applications subject to water quality, but testing may identify additional treatment requirements before the HybridPlus system.

BRISBANE RAINWATER + UV + PUMP INSTALLATION

Puretec HYBRID-P9 Installation Brisbane

JR Gas & Water supplies and installs the Puretec HYBRID-P9 across eligible Brisbane properties using rainwater for internal household supply.

A Brisbane P9 installation is planned around the tank position, suction pipework, available power, municipal-water backup connection and actual household flow demand rather than treating every rainwater property the same way.

Eligible servicing also extends through Logan, Ipswich, Moreton Bay and Redlands, subject to the current JR booking and installation pathways.

GOLD COAST RAINWATER + UV + PUMP INSTALLATION

Puretec HYBRID-P9 Installation Gold Coast

JR Gas & Water also supplies and installs the HYBRID-P9 across eligible Gold Coast tank-water properties.

The 50 L/min pump platform can be a useful fit where the property needs an integrated pump, UV and mains backup system but does not require the larger CMB-SP 5-47 used by the P12.

Cabinet positioning should preserve airflow and future access to the three cartridges, UV lamp, quartz sleeve, pump and controller equipment.

How Often Does the Puretec HYBRID-P9 Need Servicing?

The P9 contains filtration, UV and pump equipment, so servicing is more than a single cartridge replacement.

Filter Cartridges

Puretec specifies cartridge replacement every 6–12 months depending on water quality and household usage.

RL6 UV Lamp

Puretec specifies annual UV lamp replacement to maintain the intended treatment performance.

Quartz Sleeve

Puretec recommends inspecting the quartz sleeve roughly every three months, depending on source-water quality, and cleaning it where required.

An illuminated UV lamp is not the same as a serviced UV system. Lamp output decreases with age, while contamination on the quartz sleeve can reduce UV transmission even if the lamp still appears to operate.

Puretec P Series Service Kit

Puretec specifies the HR-G13R11P maintenance kit for all Hybrid P Series systems, including the HYBRID-P9.

Complete Cartridge Set

The service kit includes PL05MP2, CB05MP2 and PX01MP2 to renew all three cartridge stages.

UV Lamp & Sleeve

The kit includes the RL6 ultraviolet lamp and RQS6 quartz sleeve used by the P9.

Service Components

The complete factory maintenance kit also includes replacement O-rings and food-grade lubricant.

HYBRID-P3 vs P9 vs P12

Feature	HYBRID-P3	HYBRID-P9	HYBRID-P12
Filtration	PL05MP2 + CB05MP2 + PX01MP2	PL05MP2 + CB05MP2 + PX01MP2	PL05MP2 + CB05MP2 + PX01MP2
UV Lamp	RL6	RL6	RL6
Pump	CMB-SP 3-47	CMB-SP 3-47	CMB-SP 5-47
Rated Pump Power	0.5 kW	0.5 kW	0.9 kW
Published Pump Flow	50 L/min	50 L/min	86 L/min
Mains-to-Rain Controller	Not standard	Standard	Standard
Main Difference	50 L/min pump without standard mains backup	50 L/min pump with mains backup	86 L/min pump with mains backup

The P9 is effectively the mains-backup partner to the P3 pump platform. The P12 keeps mains backup but moves to the larger CMB-SP 5-47 pump where higher hydraulic demand justifies it.

Puretec HYBRID-P9 Warranty

Puretec's current exact product information lists a 3-year HybridPlus system warranty.

The current user guide defines this as 1 year parts and labour plus 2 additional years parts only, subject to Puretec's warranty conditions.

The Grundfos pump is excluded from that three-year Puretec component warranty and instead carries its own 2-year Grundfos back-to-base warranty.

Filter cartridges, UV lamps and other consumable maintenance components are excluded from the main system warranty.

JR Lifetime Warranty is separate from Puretec's manufacturer warranty. JR currently lists the P9 as Lifetime Warranty eligible, with eligibility and ongoing coverage governed by JR's current terms and service requirements.
