Reverse Osmosis Water Filter
Reverse osmosis, also known as hyperfiltration, is the finest filtration available today. It is the most common treatment technology used by premium bottled water companies. It is effective in eliminating or substantially reducing a very wide array of contaminants, and of all technologies used to treat drinking water in residential applications, it has the greatest range of contaminant removal. Reverse osmosis will allow the removal of particles as small as individual ions. The pores in a reverse osmosis membrane are only approximately 0.0005 micron in size (bacteria are 0.2 to 1 micron & viruses are 0.02 to 0.4 microns).
■Stage 1: PP sediment pre-filter
Traps silt/dust, rust and sand that affect the taste and appearance of your water, also protects the other filters from premature fouling.
● Replace every 3-6 months
■Stage 2: granular active carbon pre-filter
Reduces chlorine (and chlorine bi-products), bad tastes, odors, and most fungicides, pesticides, volatile organic compounds and more.
●Replace every 3-6 months
■Stage 3: compress active carbon filter
Reduces chlorine, bad tastes, odors.
●Replace every 6-12 month
■Stage 4: Reverse Osmosis Membrane
This is the primary component of the system. The membrane separates up to 99%+ of most remaining unwanted impurities from your water, including bacteria, chlorine, trihalomethanes, E.coli, giardia, cryptosporidium, nitrates, fluoride, heavy metals, inorganic minerals and more.
●Replace every 1-2 years
■Stage 5: Activated Carbon Block Post-Filter
Reduces chlorine (and chlorine bi-products), bad tastes, odors, and most fungicides, pesticides, volatile organic compounds and more.
●Replace every 12 months
