This page: Experienced plumbing,
drainage, and gas-fitting company
WaterFX supplied and installed
all plumbing for the split-level
residence. The work undertaken
included fitting out the five bathrooms and the powder room, as
well as installing two water storage
tanks.

Behind the stand-out looks, modern interiors
and refined finishes are the unseen mechanics
of running a large multi-level home. And nothing is more vitally important than the plumbing.
This was undertaken by Water FX for both
the potable water and sanitary aspects of the
job. The potable and hot water systems in this
house are both complex, but efficient. Hot water
comes within three seconds of turning on a tap,
which was on the wish list of the owners.
All roof water was piped to new tanks and
reticulated back through the UV sterilisation
system to give the owners the complete peace of

mind that it is fully treated prior to use.
Pumps, for both potable and non potable
water, were installed alongside the tanks and
filtration. All drainage, including pool, sewer
and stormwater was also installed by Water FX.
Owners Mike Baker and Steve Francis, who
have both been in business for 20 years, say
Water FX prides itself on exceptionally highquality workmanship and a personal service
– attributes that were vital on this project.
The company has a team of 30 experienced
plumbers and drainlayers, meaning when Glover
Homes needed a tradesperson, they were there.
