Full RO Performance, Compact Footprint
Sydney apartments have limited under-sink space. Traditional reverse osmosis systems take up significant cabinet room, three large filter housings that have to be unscrewed to service. The Pure Compact solves this with a different design: three slimline inline quick-connect filters in place of those bulky housings, paired with a high-output 380LPD membrane and a compact storage tank, so the whole system tucks into a fraction of the cabinet space.
The filtration performance is equivalent to any other RO system in the range. The coconut carbon pre-filter reduces chlorine, VOCs and the chemical taste and odour they cause, protecting the membrane. The 380LPD RO membrane rejects up to 98% of dissolved contaminants, fluoride (up to 95%), heavy metals, nitrates, PFAS, bacteria and microplastics. The alkaline remineralisation post-filter replenishes calcium, magnesium and potassium, raising the pH to 7.5–8.5 for balanced, naturally flavoursome water.
What's different is the form factor. The slimline inline filter design takes up a fraction of the footprint of housing-based RO systems, and the quick-connect cartridges twist out in seconds at service time, no wrench, no mess. Jean-Paul has installed the Pure Compact in Sydney apartments where a standard RO simply wouldn't fit, from tight terrace house kitchens to compact flat cabinetry in inner-city suburbs.
This system uses High Performance Filtration (HPF) filter cartridges and Filter Systems Australia (FSA) system housings, Australian-owned brands, Gold Coast QLD. Jean-Paul is Sydney's authorised installer for both brands.
