Description
This Hydronix inline underbench system is a compact way to filter drinking water at a single tap without taking up much space. It connects directly to your existing cold water line and treats water as it flows through, so you are only filtering what you actually use for drinking and cooking rather than the whole house.
Key Features
-
Compact inline system for under sink installation
-
Connects directly to flexi hose water supply
-
Multiple cartridge options depending on water issues
-

Filter Options Explained
Different cartridges are available depending on what you are trying to fix:
-
ICF-2512Q – Basic carbon filter for chlorine, taste, and odour
-
ICF-2512Q-SR – Adds scale reduction for areas with harder water
-
ICF-5567Q – Includes KDF media for stronger chlorine reduction
-
ICF-2512-ALK – Raises pH and adds alkalinity to the water
-
INAA – Uses activated alumina for fluoride reduction
This lets you match the system to your water rather than running a generic setup.
Where It’s Used
Installed under the kitchen sink for drinking water taps. Common in homes where mains water tastes heavily chlorinated or where tank water needs an extra clean up step.
How It Works
Water is diverted from the cold line through the inline cartridge before reaching the tap. The filter media targets specific contaminants based on the cartridge type, improving taste and quality at the point of use.

Installation instructions
Fitment & Installation
Designed to connect to standard under sink plumbing using a flexi hose connection. Can be installed with basic tools, or by a plumber if preferred.
Pro Tip
If you already have a separate drinking water tap, choose the option without a faucet. It keeps the setup cleaner and avoids replacing fittings that are still in good condition.
FAQs
1. Do I need a separate tap for this system?
You can either install the included faucet or connect it to an existing drinking water tap.
2. Which cartridge should I choose?
It depends on your water. For chlorine, go with carbon. For scale, choose the SR option. For fluoride, use the alumina cartridge.
3. Is this better than a whole house system?
It serves a different purpose. This filters drinking water at one point instead of treating all water in the house.
4. Can I install this myself?
Yes, most setups can be installed with basic tools, but a plumber can do it if you prefer.
5. How often do I replace the cartridge?
Typically every 6 to 12 months depending on water quality and usage.
6. Will this improve water taste?
Yes. Most setups using carbon cartridges noticeably reduce chlorine taste and odour.
