Reverse osmosis was originally designed to make sea water drinkable for the
navy. It is ideal for anyone on a low sodium diet. An R.O. membrane has a pore
size much smaller than bacteria virus, or the cryptosporidium parasite. When
functioning properly it will remove all microorganisms from tap water and produce
sterile water. Reverse osmosis is the reversal of the natural flow of osmosis. In a
water purification system, the goal is not to dilute the salt solution, but to
separate the pure water from the salt and other contaminants. When the natural
osmotic flow is reversed, water from the salt solution is forced to pass through the
membrane in the opposite direction by application of pressure-thus the term
REVERSE OSMOSIS. Through this process, we are able to produce pure water
by screening out the salts and other contaminants.

Q: What is the guarantee on the PurePro system ?
The PurePro system (excluding filters) is guaranteed for 1 year for material and
workmanship. All defective parts will be replaced free within the first year under
natural breakdown. The membrane has one year pro-rated guarantee.
Q: What factors affect the quantity and the quality of the water production?
There are four major variables to consider:
1.
Pressure
-The greater the water pressure, the better water quantity and
quality it produced. Water pressure of 60 PSI is ideal.
0
0
2.
Temperature
-76 F is the ideal water temperature for R.O. 40 F water will
0
cause the production of R.O. water to fall to half of that at 76 F. The maximum
0
water temperature recommended is 85 F.
3.
Total Dissolved Solids (TDS)
-The higher the amount of dissolved
contaminants in the water, the lower the quantity of water produced. A high
level of TOTAL DISSOLVED SOLIDS can be overcome with additional water
pressure.
4.
Membrane
-Different membranes have different characteristics. Some
produce more water than others; some have better contaminant rejection
capabilities; some have greater resistance to chemical abrasion for longer life.
PurePro system includes TW30-1812-100 The Thin Film Composite (TFC)
membranes combine the best of these characteristics and are considered the
finest membrane in the world.
Q: Can the PurePro system be connected to an extra faucet?
It only takes a 1/4" tee and tubing to run the water to a refrigerator or a extra
faucet. Some families run PurePro system to all of their bathrooms.
Q: What does the PurePro series drinking water taste like?
The taste of the PurePro water depends on the amount of contaminants in the
tap water originally. If 95% of dissolved minerals and chemicals are removed,
the R.O. water may taste like distilled water (no minerals), bottled water (low
mineral), or natural spring water (moderate mineral content).
