Outdoor Water Filter Malaysia (Point-of-Entry)
Outdoor water filter or Point-of-Entry water filtration system, is a tall cylindrical purifier that can filter out sediments in Malaysia piping water supply.
It is advisable for every home and commercial areas (like cafes and restaurants) use an outdoor water filter to remove majority of the sediments before going into water taps. This is due to built-up of sediments in old rusty pipes especially for locations that has yet to have to new piping work done by bodies likes DBKL (City Hall) or water pipe renovation work.

Do I Really Need an Outdoor Water Filter for my Home / Office?
It is highly recommended to have Point-of-Entry water filtration due to sediments that builds up over time in municipal water pipe line. While water companies like SYABAS sanitized water supply (that’s why you pay the water bill). Once it enters the old rusty pipes and stagnant water tanks, water is filled sediments again.
Is an indoor purifier unit still necessary for drinking after installing a wholehouse water filtration?
We still recommend an indoor water purifier for mainly 2 reasons:
- Sediments exist in older pipings of a house that has aged.
- An indoor UF (ulfiltration) water filter purifier (point-of-use) is needed to help get rid of potential bacteria or viruses.
How often do I need perform the backwash function?
At least once a week.
