Explore our treatment plants

Have you ever wondered how water from a river, reservoir dam or bore is transformed into safe drinking water?

This virtual tour takes you behind the scenes of a typical North East Water treatment plant. You'll explore a Dissolved Air Flotation and Filtration (DAFF) plant and discover how a combination of physical and chemical treatment processes removes impurities and produces drinking water for our communities.

As you move through the plant, click on the interactive hotspots to see information, images and videos explaining each stage of treatment, the equipment involved and the people who help deliver safe, reliable water every day.

Let's begin the journey from source water to tap water.
