What to know about Bristol water and installers

Bristol Water draws on chalk and limestone springs in the Mendips, delivering 200 to 290 mg/l hardness in most postcodes. Without a filter, kettle elements and boiling tap tanks scale within 12 to 24 months. Bristol installers typically quote 220 to 300 pounds for a standard fit.

Filter recommendation

A model with a built-in carbon and scale-reduction filter is the smart choice. Budget 80 to 120 pounds a year for replacement cartridges.
