Reverse osmosis systems for private use (1 Products)

Tap water: The system is ideal for filtering municipal tap water. It effectively removes contaminants such as chlorine, heavy metals, uranium, calcium, sodium, nitrate, medical residues and microorganisms up to 99%.

Well water: The system can also filter well water, provided it meets the basic requirements for raw water for reverse osmosis systems. Well water can contain varying amounts of sediment and contaminants, so it is important to test the water quality before installation. A coarser pre-filter and in some cases an iron filter may be necessary before the system.

Rainwater: With appropriate pre-filtration, the system can also filter rainwater. However, it is recommended that the water is first pre-treated using sediment and carbon filters to remove larger particles and organic contaminants. Please note, however, that with rainwater, the filter replacement intervals can vary greatly (depending on the level of contamination).

Spring water: The system can also be used to filter spring water if the water is first tested for gross impurities and pretreated if necessary.

Filtering Parasites: Countertop reverse osmosis systems are extremely effective at removing a variety of contaminants, including parasites. Reverse osmosis uses a semi-permeable membrane that is so fine that it can remove almost all dissolved solids from water, including microorganisms such as parasites. Parasites such as Cryptosporidium and Giardia that may be present in drinking water sources are effectively filtered out by this membrane, ensuring safe and healthy water quality.

Water treatment process: In a table-top reverse osmosis system, the water goes through several stages of treatment. The process typically includes the following steps:

• Pre-filtration: Removes larger particles such as sand, rust and other sediments.
• Activated carbon filter: Removes chlorine, bad smells and tastes as well as organic compounds.
• Reverse osmosis membrane: This is the core of the system. The membrane removes up to 99% of all dissolved solids, including salts, bacteria and viruses, heavy metals and even parasites.
• Remineralization: Perfect for improving taste and balancing pH.
