Based on Wonga Park's water profile
Activated Carbon Filter Top pick
Your water profile doesn't have any specific concerns. A carbon filter jug is the affordable default — it removes chlorine taste and odour and common contaminants without plumbing, and cartridges are sold in every supermarket.
Fluoride and PFAS Filter
Standard carbon filters don't remove fluoride or PFAS. If you want either reduced without a plumber, a certified ion-exchange jug or a compact under-sink filter is the step up from a carbon jug.
Gravity Water Filter
A gravity filter is a versatile, budget-friendly option that requires no plumbing. Good for general filtration of chlorine, sediment, and common contaminants.

Utility reports average the grid — not your home
Wonga Park's water meets ADWG standards at the source, but old pipes, roof tanks, and ageing plumbing can add lead, copper or bacteria before the water reaches your tap. These won't show up in your utility report.
Check your own tap before buying a filter or assuming the suburb average matches your home.
