May 6th, 2026


Clean, safe, and reliable drinking water is a critical consideration in the design and specification of commercial and health environments. 

In this CPD Live session, we explore the key factors architects, designers, and specifiers must take into account when incorporating filtered drinking water systems into projects.

Beginning by identifying the various bodies responsible for water supply, our speakers will go on to identify both the contaminants (such as PFAS, microplastics, and more) that can affect its quality, as well as the standards and measures employed to control them.

And they will explain the role that architects play in ensuring drinking water quality. Explaining the various options and technologies designed to improve water quality, they will outline all you need to know to deliver your clients reliable and effective drinking water solutions that prioritise both health outcomes and sustainability.

At the end of this presentation, you should be able to:

  • Outline the drinking water supply process
  • Identify the governing bodies responsible for drinking water supply in Australia
  • Outline current drinking water quality standards
  • Identify the various technologies designed to improve drinking water quality and their respective applications
