Tank water cleaning, filtration & BioCleanse — done properly.
Local Sunshine Coast specialists for rainwater tanks, acreage homes and bore water. Whole-home filtration, UV sterilisation, professional tank cleaning and AqueousPro™ BioCleanse — backed by the national Pristine Water Systems brand.
Tank water can look clean and still have problems.
A clear glass of water doesn't tell you everything. Tank, catchment, filtration, UV and pipework should all be considered together — that's the whole-system approach we take on every job.
Sediment at the bottom of tanks
Over months and years, fine particles, leaf matter and organic material settle and accumulate.
Bacteria risk
Wildlife, insects and decaying organic matter can introduce microbiological concerns into stored water.
Smelly or discoloured water
Off-tastes, odour or tint usually indicate something has changed in the tank, catchment or filters.
Dirty gutters & catchments
What reaches the tank starts with the roof, gutters, inlet and first flush — most issues start there.
Old pipework biofilm
In older homes, biofilm can develop inside household pipework and quietly affect water quality.
Filters & UV overdue
Cartridges and UV lamps gradually lose effectiveness — annual servicing keeps them performing.
A whole-system approach to tank water on the Sunshine Coast.
Tank, catchment, filtration, UV and pipework — considered together, not in isolation. That's how we keep household water consistently good.
Water Tank Cleaning
Sediment removal, sludge vacuuming, sanitising and inspection — performed with minimal water loss where practical.

Whole-Home Filtration
Whole-of-house sediment and carbon filtration designed for tank water and bore water homes across the Sunshine Coast.

UV Sterilisation
Protect-UV™ whole-home ultraviolet sterilisation — installed and serviced with correct pre-filtration for best results.

BioCleanse Pipework
AqueousPro™ BioCleanse is a supplementary whole-home pipework disinfection considered where biofilm risk is present.
Explore serviceTank Water Testing
Tank and bore water testing helps confirm what is in your water before any filtration or treatment is recommended.
Explore serviceAnnual Water System Servicing
Annual filter changes, UV lamp replacement, tank inspection and catchment checks — prevention rather than reaction.
Explore serviceCatchment Upgrades
Leaf strainers, first flush diverters, gutter checks and inlet improvements — practical upgrades before water enters the tank.
Explore serviceBore Water Support
Bore water often introduces minerals and hardness. We help assess, test and design appropriate filtration for bore-supplied homes.
Explore serviceA clear, six-step path to better household water.
From the first inspection to ongoing annual servicing — every step is documented and explained in plain English.
- Step 01
Book a free inspection
Tell us about your property, tank, filtration and water concerns. We confirm a time that suits you.
- Step 02
On-site assessment
We inspect the tank, catchment, filtration and UV system — and review any prior testing or maintenance history.
- Step 03
Clean & sanitise the tank
Where needed, we vacuum sludge and sediment and sanitise the tank — often without fully draining it.
- Step 04
Test or review water quality
Testing helps confirm what is actually in your water before any filtration or treatment is recommended.
- Step 05
Install or service equipment
Right-sized filtration, UV and — where appropriate — BioCleanse pipework treatment, installed cleanly and clearly.
- Step 06
Annual servicing
Reminder-based servicing keeps filters, UV lamps and the broader system performing as intended.
More than a tank washout — a four-stage professional clean.
QuadClean™ is the structured tank cleaning process we use on every job — designed to remove sediment, sanitise effectively and protect your household tank water with minimal disruption.
- 01Inspect
Tank, catchment, inlet, filtration and UV — documented honestly.
- 02Extract
Sludge and sediment vacuumed out with minimal water loss.
- 03Sanitise
Tank walls treated to support clean stored water.
- 04Restore
System restored, water checked and the job clearly documented.
- Not just a hose-out — sludge & sediment are vacuumed
- Works alongside filtration and UV — not as a replacement
- Water quality is confirmed through testing
- Documented for your records, every job
Older tank water homes can develop hidden pipework problems.
Over time, biofilm can build up on the inside of household plumbing — a thin, sticky layer of biological material that can affect taste, odour and microbiological water quality.
- Homes over 10 years old
- Homes with an unknown maintenance history
- Positive bacteria results from prior testing
- Recurring taste or odour issues
BioCleanse is not a replacement for UV sterilisation, filtration or tank cleaning. It is a supplementary pipework treatment, recommended only as part of a whole-system assessment.
Filtration and UV work best together.
Filtration improves clarity, taste and sediment. UV provides microbiological protection. Both require annual servicing — and both rely on a clean tank and good catchment to perform.
FiltrationWhole-home filtration
Twin and triple sediment + carbon systems sized to your household and water source. Improves taste, odour, colour and sediment — and supports UV by removing what UV cannot.
- · Sediment removal
- · Carbon polish
- · Taste & odour
- · Annual servicing
Protect-UV™UV sterilisation
Protect-UV™ whole-home ultraviolet sterilisation, installed with appropriate pre-filtration and serviced annually. UV provides microbiological protection when the rest of the system is right.
- · Whole-home protection
- · Annual lamp replacement
- · Sleeve cleaning
- · Pre-filtration check
Note: filtration alone does not guarantee microbiological safety, and UV is not a replacement for tank cleaning or catchment maintenance. Water quality should be confirmed through appropriate testing.
Built for tank water homes across the Sunshine Coast.
Our work is shaped by Sunshine Coast rainfall, heavily treed hinterland catchments, acreage properties on bore + tank setups, and the older homes that fill our local streets.
From Noosa and Eumundi hinterland to the Blackall Range, Maleny, Montville and Mapleton — we focus on what tank water actually looks like up here.

"Our acreage tank was overdue and we had a smell coming through the taps. The team explained the process clearly, vacuumed the sediment without fully draining it, and our water is noticeably better."
"We moved into an older hinterland home and had no idea about the tank or filtration. They tested the water, replaced the UV lamp, upgraded our filters and now we feel confident drinking from the tap."
"We use Pristine Water Systems for annual servicing across several rural rentals. Reports are clean and clear, and the owners love knowing the tank and UV are being looked after every year."
"Friendly, on time, no upselling. They walked us through what our system actually needed — and recommended BioCleanse only after explaining why our older pipework would benefit from it."
