Reverse Osmosis

Reverse Osmosis…removes a wide range of drinking water contaminants.

Reverse Osmosis (RO) systems force water, under pressure, into a module that contains a semipermeable membrane and a number of other filtration steps. The typical RO system has a pre-filter designed to capture larger particles, chlorine, and other substances; The RO membrane, a semipermeable membrane that captures more contaminants; an activated carbon filter that removes residual taste, odor, and some organic contaminants; and a storage tank to hold the treated water for use.
