Choose the Right Marine Watermaker for Your Boat

Every boat is different. Sailboats, powerboats, catamarans, motor yachts, houseboats and liveaboard vessels each have their own demands. The right marine watermaker depends on your daily freshwater use, available onboard power, installation space and how long you spend away from marina supply.

Watermakers Australia matches each system to the boat, with modular builds to suit different layouts, power systems and cruising styles.

Sizing

How Much Freshwater Does Your Boat Need?

The right watermaker size depends on how many people are onboard, how much freshwater you use each day, your tank capacity and how often you want to run the system.

We can help you compare single, double and triple membrane options against your cruising style, installation space and available onboard power.

Production by membrane count

A Water Makers Australia triple membrane system laid out as separate modules: control panel, three membranes, pre-filters, feed pump and high-pressure pump.

Modular by design

Built for Practical Marine Installation

Watermakers Australia systems use a modular layout, so the pump, membranes and filters go where they best fit the boat. That keeps installation, access and future servicing practical across a wide range of vessel layouts.

Configure yours around the power you have, the space you can spare and the freshwater you need, so the system suits the way you actually use the boat.

Pre-filters

Standard, off-the-shelf cartridges. Mount them somewhere you can actually reach to change them.

High-pressure pump

Positioned to suit your power setup and the space you have, rather than boxed in with everything else.

Membranes

Slim housings that tuck into tight lazarettes and engine rooms, away from the rest of the system.

Built from standard, off-the-shelf parts, so a filter change or a spare fitting does not depend on one supplier or a long wait for something proprietary.

Kalim is a superstar! He has gone above and beyond in helping us sort out our water maker. There has been no question or query too big and difficult for him to be able to explain. If you're in the market for a watermaker - look no further, you won't find a more knowledgeable guy.

Tyrone Kalatzis Google review

Excellent service and support from Water Makers Australia. The system is well built and produces reliable fresh water onboard. Great communication throughout the process and the advice provided was practical and knowledgeable. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a quality marine water maker.

Peter A Google review

I have nothing but praise for Water Makers Australia & NZ and in particular the extremely helpful and obliging support from Kalim. Without Kalim's encouraging reassurance on this DIY I'm sure I would have remained lost in the maze of water maker options and providers. Kalim made the whole project quite easy, from helping me choose the right equipment for my requirements and being there every time to guide me along the way when I needed help. If you're thinking of installing a water maker you're at the right place to make it happen. I love my water maker and I fitted it myself thanks to Kalim and Water Makers Australian & NZ.

Fantastic product with fantastic after sales support-a rarity in this age

Ian D Google review

From the very first contact through to now 6 months in use the series provided by Kalim at water makers Australia has been beyond exceptional. I purchased a twin membrane system and did the install myself and every time I contacted Kalim he provided me with answers to my questions, he showed us how to correctly install the membranes, how to run hoses etc. Since commissioning our water maker it has performed fantastic producing an average of 120 - 140 litres per hour. The fact that spare parts, filters etc are also readily available make this Australian designed water maker a great choice. We highly recommend Water Makers Australia.

Ian Longston Google review

Kalim from Watermakers Australia has been available to us when installing the watermaker from the beginning. We put new alternators on our boat and had a fire. We had to eliminate lots of problems with our electrics., but we really wanted to make sure our watermaker worked, Kalim offered support all along the way in a kind and knowledgeable way. Nothing was too much trouble. Great guy to work with and we recommend him and his product highly..
