What is the Z1-T1 filter capacity?
The supplied product information identifies a stated 30,000-litre cartridge capacity.
Does the cartridge last until 30,000 litres have been used?
Not necessarily. The manufacturer's time-based replacement schedule, water quality and cartridge condition must also be considered.
What is the filtered-water flow rate?
The supplied description identifies a 7.5L/min filtered-water flow rate.
Does the Z1-T1 reduce kitchen tap pressure?
Actual filtered-water flow depends on incoming pressure, cartridge condition and plumbing configuration. The ordinary mixer function has separate operating characteristics.
What water pressure does the Z1-T1 require?
The supplied product description identifies an operating pressure range of 200–500kPa.
What happens if my water pressure is too high?
Additional pressure control may be required to keep the installation within the manufacturer's operating limits.
What happens if my water pressure is too low?
Filtered-water flow may be reduced. The installation should be assessed against the manufacturer's minimum pressure requirement.
What tap hole size is required?
The supplied description identifies a 33mm tap hole requirement. Confirm the manufacturer's mounting tolerances.
Can the Z1-T1 fit my existing kitchen tap hole?
Potentially, if the opening and mounting arrangement meet the Tripla T1 requirements. The existing sink or benchtop should be checked before ordering.
Do I need to drill an extra hole?
Not normally when the Tripla T1 replaces the existing mixer tap in a suitable opening, because the filtered-water function is integrated into the same tap.
Is benchtop drilling included?
Tap hole drilling or modification is not automatically included in the standard installation scope and may require separate quotation.
Can the Z1-T1 be installed in a stone benchtop?
Potentially, where the opening and mounting conditions are suitable. Specialist stone modification may be required if the existing hole is unsuitable.
Can the Z1-T1 replace my existing kitchen mixer?
Yes, potentially. The tap hole, plumbing connections and available installation space must be compatible.
Can the Z1-T1 replace an existing filtered-water tap?
Potentially. The final arrangement depends on the existing tap holes, plumbing and desired kitchen layout.
Where is the Puretec Z1 filter installed?
The filter is normally installed beneath the kitchen sink or in another suitable location within the manufacturer's requirements.
How much under sink space is required?
The exact dimensions and servicing clearances should be confirmed against Puretec's current installation specifications.
Can the Z1-T1 be installed in a kitchen with drawers?
Potentially, provided there is enough room for the filter, plumbing and future cartridge replacement without interfering with the drawers.
Does the Z1-T1 require electricity?
No electrical requirement is identified in the supplied product description. Confirm the exact configuration with Puretec.
Can filtered water be used for cooking?
Yes. The filtered-water function is intended for suitable drinking-water applications, including filling containers used in food preparation.
Does the filtered-water side dispense hot water?
The supplied description identifies a separate filtered mains water pathway. Do not assume hot water is filtered through the Z1 cartridge.
Can hot water damage the filter cartridge?
Filtration cartridges have manufacturer-specified temperature limits. The Z1 filtration circuit should only receive water within its approved temperature range.
What does the 0–38°C specification mean?
The supplied description states this temperature range, but its application to individual components should be confirmed. The filtration circuit and mixer tap may have different temperature requirements.
How does the Tripla T1 keep filtered water separate?
The tap is described as using separate internal tubes for filtered and unfiltered water.
Is the Z1-T1 suitable for kitchen renovations?
Yes. It may suit renovations where a new mixer tap and under sink filtration system are being installed together.
Is the Z1-T1 suitable for new homes?
Yes, potentially, where the kitchen plumbing, tap opening and under sink space are designed to accommodate the system.
How do you change the Puretec Z1 cartridge?
The system is described as using a quick-twist valve-in-head design. Follow Puretec's instructions for safe cartridge replacement.
How often should the cartridge be replaced?
Follow Puretec's current replacement interval and capacity requirements for the exact cartridge, taking water quality and household usage into account.
Can I change the filter cartridge myself?
The quick-twist design is intended to simplify servicing. Follow Puretec's instructions and use appropriate professional assistance where required.
What happens if the cartridge is overdue for replacement?
Filtration performance or flow may deteriorate. Replace the cartridge according to the manufacturer's maintenance schedule.
Is the Z1-T1 better than a separate filter tap?
It provides a more integrated single-tap arrangement. A separate filter faucet may still suit kitchens where the existing mixer is being retained.
Is the Z1-T1 a reverse osmosis system?
No. The supplied description identifies Ultra Z filtration rather than reverse osmosis.
