1What is reverse osmosis (RO) filtration?

Reverse osmosis is a water purification process that uses a semi-permeable membrane to remove contaminants, ions, and impurities from water, resulting in clean and safe drinking water.

2How does an RO filtration system work?

An RO system pushes water through a semi-permeable membrane, filtering out impurities and contaminants. The purified water is collected in a storage tank, while the contaminants are flushed away.

3What are the benefits of using an RO filtration system at home?

Benefits include removal of harmful contaminants, improved taste and odor of water, reduced risk of waterborne diseases, and better overall health.

4How often should I replace the filters in my RO system?

It is recommended to replace pre-filters every 6-12 months, the RO membrane every 2-3 years, and the post-filter every 12 months, depending on usage and water quality.

5Can an RO system remove all types of contaminants from water?

An RO system can remove a wide range of contaminants, including bacteria, viruses, heavy metals, chlorine, fluoride, and dissolved solids, but it may not remove certain volatile organic compounds (VOCs) or chemicals that pass through the membrane.

6Is it difficult to install an RO filtration system?

Most RO systems are designed for easy installation and come with detailed instructions. However, professional installation is recommended if you are not comfortable with plumbing tasks.

7How much water is wasted during the RO filtration process?

RO systems typically waste 3-4 gallons of water for every gallon of purified water produced. Some newer models are more efficient and produce less wastewater.

8Can an RO system be used with any water source?

Yes, RO systems can be used with most water sources, including tap water, well water, and rainwater. However, very hard water may require additional pre-treatment to protect the RO membrane.

9How do I maintain my RO filtration system?

Regular maintenance includes replacing filters as recommended, sanitizing the system periodically, and checking for any leaks or malfunctions.

10What should I do if my RO system is not producing enough water?

Check for clogged filters or a fouled membrane, ensure proper water pressure, and inspect for any leaks or blockages in the system. If the problem persists, contact customer support for assistance.
