Caravan Taps & Filters Australia: Reliable Water Solutions for Van Life
Caravan taps and water filters do more than dispense water. They manage pressure from tanks and pumps, keep flow steady when your battery voltage changes, and improve taste and safety when you refill from unknown sources. Purpose-built caravan sink taps, mixer taps and inline filter kits are compact, efficient and designed to stay leak free through vibration and temperature swings.
Caravan sink taps & mixer taps
Your tap is the part you touch most, so choose smooth operation and a footprint that suits your bench and splash zone. The High Rise Chrome Mixer Tap gives extra pot clearance, precise temperature control and a tidy base that seals easily on laminate or solid surfaces. Mobile-ready cartridges help maintain flow at typical caravan pressures and withstand the bumps of touring.
Tap styles compared
| Tap type | Strengths | Best use | Considerations |
|---|---|---|---|
| Single lever mixer | Fast one-hand control, compact body | Kitchens and main sinks | Needs quality cartridge for steady low-pressure mixing |
| Folding/low profile mixer | Clears benchtop covers and windows | Small vans and combined sink-hob units | Check folded height against window blinds |
| Pull-out spray mixer | Flexible rinsing, quick pot fill | Family touring, external rinse buckets | Needs secure hose routing so it does not snag in travel |
| Cold-only galley tap | Simplest plumbing, lowest draw | Minimalist or off-grid rigs | No on-tap hot water unless paired with heater |
Flow comfort comes from the aerator and cartridge, not just headline litres per minute. Choose mixer taps designed for RV pressure ranges.
Caravan water filters & inline systems
Filtering improves taste and clarity and can reduce contaminants depending on the media used. The Puretec Black Chrome Mixer Tap and Filter Kit mounts under the sink and delivers filtered water from a dedicated outlet, keeping full flow at the main mixer for washing up. Inline cartridges can also be plumbed before your main tap for whole-sink filtration when space is tight.
Filter media and micron guide
| Filter type | What it targets | Typical micron | Best placement | Service tip |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sediment (polyspun) | Sand, grit, rust | 20–5 micron | Upstream before carbon or at tank fill | Replace sooner if flow drops after dusty fills |
| Carbon block/GAC | Chlorine, odour, taste | 10–1 micron | Under-sink on drinking outlet | Change every 6–12 months or by litres used |
| Silver-impregnated carbon | Odour control with bacteriostatic properties | 10–1 micron | Under-sink where water may sit between trips | Still follow time or litre replacement schedule |
| Inline combo cartridges | Sediment + taste in one body | Varies | Space-limited installs or temporary setups | Keep a spare on board for remote trips |
Micron is a particle size rating. Lower numbers capture finer particles but can reduce flow on low-pressure pumps. Balance taste goals with practical flow at the sink.
