Do you suspect your water source is contaminated?  Anything practical and economical that you can do to protect the health and safety of your family from harmful substances in your drinking water should be a high priority.   A reverse osmosis system may be the solution to your drinking and cooking water quality problems.

The central step in the reverse osmosis process lies in what happens inside the membrane, which is the most important part of the RO set up.  Here water is forced through this thin porous film which only allows anything the size of a water molecule to pass through.  Anything else greater than .001 microns are prevented from penetrating this barrier.  Potentially harmful impurities such as bacteria, industrial wastes and pesticides can not go through and are drained away.  What comes out the other end of this membrane is mostly pure water.

The membrane isn’t the only critical component of the reverse osmosis system.  In addition, there is usually a pre-filter and a post filter that come before and after the membrane in the RO set up respectively.  The pre-filter blocks sediment such as sand, silt and dirt in the water from entering through.  There may be another pre-filter that uses carbon to remove chlorine which may have a negative effect on some types of membranes.  Then after the membrane there is usually a carbon post filter that eliminates any remaining odor or tastes in the purified water.

When you have looked at the alternatives to a reverse osmosis system for filtering your home drinking and cooking water and decided that having a RO installed is your best solution, then you should shop around for the system which uses high quality filters and membranes.  These are the two most critical components of the system and the level of quality in these parts is what makes one system better than another.  Less quality in these key components means performance will suffer, impurities will pass through and unnecessary downtime will have to be experienced.  Therefore, you must not let a bargain influence your buying decision, but rather purchase a RO system manufactured by a company with a good reputation and service.
