REVERSE OSMOSIS Drinking Water
Aqua Chill’s Long Reach Air Gap Faucet is great for any office or home that is looking for Reverse Osmosis water filter at their sink. It’s slim features and sophisticated design is a perfect addition when there is not much floor or counter space for a cooler.
Reverse Osmosis water is also good for planting.
REVERSE OSMOSIS FILTER FEATURES
• It is the only filtration system to remove particulates down to a .0001 micron size.
• Removes Lead, Chlorine, PFAO, Chromium, Bacteria and many more accounting for the removal of 95% of all particulates in tap water.
• We use a 3 stage process with additional stages available upon request.
• Reverse Osmosis requires access to a water and drain source.
Stage 1 Sediment filter: -removes dirt and heavy solids
Stage 2 Carbon filter: -removes chemicals like Chlorine
Stage 3 Thin Film Composite Membrane: – removes microscopics like bacteria
What is Reverse Osmosis?
Reverse osmosis removes particulates from tap water when pressure forces the water through a semipermeable membrane. The pressure essentially squeezes the water through a very fine mesh sponge where particulates in the tap water get separated into one side of the membrane housing, and the clean water flows to the other side. The freshwater produced is called permeate. The concentrated water that remains is called residue or brine. The membrane’s effectiveness depends on good water pressure and having very small pores that prevent particulates as small as .0001 micron from passing through.How does a reverse osmosis system work?
A Reverse Osmosis System cleans water in multiple stages. The first stage filter is a sediment filter which is designed to remove heavy particles such as dirt and solids. The second stage filter is a solid Carbon block designed to remove chemicals from water, primarily Chlorine. The third stage filter is a spongy membrane that separates the remaining particulates out of the the water creating a final product as pure as bottled water. Reverse Osmosis is able to reject up to 98% of all particulates. Sometimes RO systems will add 4 and 5 stages to eliminate any aftertaste from the holding tank that is used to store the water after contact with the membrane.
