Here’s how your
Forbes Under Sink RO
works
Your Forbes Under Sink RO has a multi-stage filtration and purification process
for water that’s pure, with improved quality and taste.
1. First, the water passes through a 5 micron polypropylene sediment pre-filter which
removes suspended material such as sediments, insects, asbestos, fibre, rust and
dust particles bigger than 5 microns in size (Replace every 1 year).
2. Then the Granular Activated Carbon (GAC) filter absorbs heavy chlorine and chlorine
by-products such as chloramines, THM and TCE (Replace every 1 year).
3. After this, the Carbon block filter removes any additional chlorine and organic matter
from water without release of carbon fines. This prepares the water to enter the reverse
osmosis element (Replace every 1 year).
4. Post this, a thin film composite (TFC) Reverse Osmosis (RO) Semi-permeable
membrane with booster pump pressure separates the purified water from the rejected
impurities like arsenic, lead, fluoride and dissolved solids, bacteria and viruses down
to 0.0001 micron. The water is stored in the storage tank, while the reject water is
automatically flushed down the drain.
5. In the final stage, a 6 inch post-carbon one-micron removes any dissolved gases, bad
taste and odour from the water. Now, you have drinking water that is pure and
absolutely safe.
