All parts such as elbows, tubing, housings and valves should have a manufacturer’s mark such as JG (for John Guest) stamped into the moulds used during the production process. In this way, the company and country of origin are clearly indicated. Stickers are no longer a guarantee of a genuine quality part as these can easily be printed and used unethically.
We use genuine John Guest fittings with moulding of authenticity.
Below are examples of genuine fittings with manufacturer marks:
We are fully licensed and insured unlike many companies who are operating without a license.
The dangers of using inferior knock-off parts:
These parts are often produced in countries with minimal quality control and are not thoroughly tested which means that your water filter may not work effectively.

We have seen cases where water filters have broken down and caused extensive damage when they flood homes and businesses.

Manufactured in Asia without any moulded proof on the systems housings. Beware of these units as they are prone to crack and potentially flood your property.
From our extensive experience in the water filtration industry we know that companies use inferior products to save up to 90% on product cost. For example, we pay $8 for a genuine fitting from England or the USA, but inferior copies are available for 80 cents from certain countries in Asia.
