Safe drinking water should not be limited by geography, infrastructure or scale.
Water Source is an Australian water technology company rethinking how safe drinking water can be delivered consistently, practically and sustainably beyond the reach of conventional infrastructure.
As climate, population and infrastructure pressures grow, the need for practical, reliable and decentralised drinking water solutions has never been more important.
Brolga is our answer to that challenge.
Introducing Brolga
Brolga brings safe drinking water within reach, wherever conventional infrastructure falls short.
Brolga, from Water Source, is a micro water treatment plant created for places beyond the reach of conventional drinking water infrastructure.
Designed for small and decentralised applications, Brolga helps communities, facilities and businesses produce safe drinking water with greater confidence, less complexity and clearer operational visibility.
It brings together practical deployment, dependable performance and intelligent connectivity in one integrated system, helping make safe drinking water more accessible where it matters most.
Product renderOne coordinated treatment process
Each element inside Brolga is designed to work as part of a coordinated treatment process, rather than as a collection of separate components assembled on site.
Stage 01
Suitable source water
Non-potable water from a source assessed as suitable, with any site pretreatment upstream.
Stage 02
Prefiltration
Removes coarser particles to protect the ultrafiltration membrane.
Stage 03
Ultrafiltration
A certified membrane barrier for physical removal of pathogens and fine particles.
Stage 04
UV disinfection
A validated ultraviolet system for pathogen inactivation.
Stage 05
Safe drinking water
Treated water to site storage and distribution.
Connected intelligence
Powered by ELEIoT
Brolga's embedded digital platform, ELEIoT, is hosted on Amazon Web Services (AWS) and provides secure connected access to each unit.
It enables remote monitoring, control and configuration, supported by dashboards, alerts, operational data and analytics for improved visibility, troubleshooting and optimisation.
Remote access depends on available site networks. ELEIoT supports, but does not replace, routine on-site care.
Explore ELEIoT- 1
Embedded control system
Continuously monitors unit health and operating conditions, managing treatment, cleaning and protection sequences automatically.
- 2
Secure communications
Uses encrypted communications to connect each Brolga with the ELEIoT cloud platform over available site networks.
- 3
ELEIoT cloud platform
Provides the secure cloud environment for remote configuration, control, data storage and fleet-level visibility.
- 4
User dashboards and insights
Gives authorised users access to dashboards, alarms, trends and operational history to support monitoring, troubleshooting and optimisation.

Our purpose
A human response to a real problem
Water Source's origins trace back to founder Graeme Wise and his experience in Timor-Leste, where the reality of unsafe drinking water became deeply personal.
That purpose still shapes the company today: practical water technology for small and decentralised applications.
