Water Tanks & Storage

What contaminants does a reverse osmosis water filter remove?
RO filters remove fluoride, chlorine, arsenic, salt, PFAS, heavy metals, microplastics, pesticides, herbicides, and VOCs for purified water.

How does the reverse osmosis water filtration process work?
Water passes through sediment and carbon pre-filters, then a semipermeable RO membrane removes contaminants. Purified water is stored, wastewater drained, and a post-carbon filter improves taste.

Is reverse osmosis water safe and healthy to drink?
Yes, RO water is safe and clean. It removes harmful chemicals but minimal essential minerals, which mostly come from food.

What are the key benefits of using a reverse osmosis water filtration system?
RO systems remove up to 99% of contaminants, improve taste, reduce plastic waste, and protect appliances from scale buildup.

Does a reverse osmosis water system waste water?
Traditional RO systems waste about 3-4 gallons per gallon purified. Efficiency can improve with pumps or reusing wastewater for gardening.

Do I need a reverse osmosis water filtration system at home?
If your water has contaminants or you want safer, better-tasting water, an RO system is beneficial. Otherwise, it’s optional for clean municipal water.

Where is the best place to install a reverse osmosis water filtration system?
Usually under the kitchen sink; also possible for refrigerators or aquariums. Whole-house systems require more equipment and pressure.
