Make The SwitchHard Water Installation Rail with Brita Scale Removal Filter (BFRAILKIT)
The Hard Water Installation Rail with Brita Scale Removal Filter (BFRAILKIT) is a complete installation and protection solution designed specifically for use in hard water areas. Combining essential plumbing components with a high-performance Brita scale reduction filter, this kit helps protect water coolers, boilers, and drinking water systems from limescale build-up and long-term damage.
Supplied with key safety and control components including a compression fitting, non-return valve, water block, and pressure reducing valve, this rail ensures a safe, compliant, and professional installation. The integrated Brita filtration system reduces limescale while improving water quality, making it ideal for environments where water hardness can impact both performance and lifespan.

✔ Purchase Customers: Professional installation is available as an optional extra
✔ Competent users can install themselves, but a qualified plumber is strongly recommended
Yes. The BFRAILKIT is designed to be DIY-friendly for competent users with basic plumbing knowledge. However, a qualified plumber is highly recommended to ensure safe and compliant installation.
This depends on water usage and hardness, but typically every 6–12 months for most working environments.
Without a scale reduction filter, limescale can:
– Build up inside your system
– Reduce heating efficiency (especially in boilers)
– Cause blockages or damage
– Shorten the lifespan of your equipment
Yes. The BFRAILKIT is designed for compact installation, making it suitable for:
– Under-sink installations
– Kitchen cupboards
Yes. The kit is designed for standard UK mains water connections, typically using 15mm pipework.
You likely have hard water if you notice:
– Limescale build-up on taps or kettles
– White residue on surfaces
– Reduced efficiency in appliances
Most areas in the South of England have moderate to hard water, making filtration highly recommended.
Yes. The rail can typically be installed in either orientation, as long as:
– The flow direction is correct
– Components are securely mounted
– The filter is installed as per guidelines
Yes. The Brita filter helps improve taste, odour and overall water quality. While its primary role is scale reduction, it does also enhance drinking water.
