Our reverse osmosis system will remove more than 96% of: foreign
particles, colloid, organic substances, heavy metals, soluble solids,
bacteria, viruses, pyrogen, nitrate, microorganisms, hormones,
fluoride and other harmful impurities. It only retains water molecules
and dissolved oxygen. To achieve this, RO systems use a special
kind of semi-permeable membrane. This membrane is protected by
pre-filters, these remove sediment, particulates and chlorine. The
membrane has layers of filtration which the water is pushed through,
any water that does not go through all the layers is expelled to the
waste line leaving only the pure filtrated water. RO units waste
around 70% of the water and will get the TDS down to around 10-
15% of the incoming TDS readings.
Post DI Filters can be added to the unit to get a lower TDS reading if
required.
