All About Reverse Osmosis
Reverse Osmosis
Water quality is important whether you are getting your water supply from your city or from well water. You may know that there are federal standards that treated water must reach in order for the water to be considered clean, pure water. The federal government regulates harmful contaminants in water supplies such as microbial pathogens and hazardous substances like radioactive elements, organic pollutants and biological growth. Volatile organic compounds need to be removed from fresh water while the beneficial minerals remain in order to help keep your family happy and healthy.
Bottled water is an option that many may look to when faced with the choice between tap water or a more treated reverse osmosis water option. While this is a well known and accepted option, bottled water had its own set of downfalls. Some of these downsides include environmental and cost associated consequences. Reverse osmosis systems are an in home alternative to costly and damaging bottled water.
What Is A Reverse Osmosis System?
Reverse osmosis is a water filtration process that forces water through a semipermeable membrane. The semi permeable membrane has holes small enough to reject anything larger than a water molecule, making reverse osmosis very effective for contaminant removal because the semi permeable membrane will trap contaminants. The process is known for producing water of the highest quality. Reverse Osmosis Systems are good for both city water and well water, providing high drinking water quality. Kinetico reverse osmosis systems use Reverse Osmosis technology to remove impurities from your water.
Kinetico water systems are a great choice for those who are looking for an alternative to traditional water filtration systems. Reverse Osmosis technology removes up to 99% of contaminants, including lead, chlorine, and fluoride.
How Does Reverse Osmosis Work?
Reverse osmosis works by putting applied pressure on non-treated water. The contaminated water passes through a semipermeable membrane that will only let things the size of water molecules or smaller pass through. The filtered water then becomes fresh water that is free of harmful substances but still contains the healthy minerals needed for the human body to function properly.
Is Reverse Osmosis Safe?
Drinking reverse osmosis water is completely safe to do. It maintains the same quality and the same taste as bottled water while eliminating environmental waste and high cost. RO water is free of dangerous chemicals while still containing healthy minerals.
Why Is Reverse Osmosis Important?
Reverse osmosis is important to ensure that you are getting pure water that is free of harmful substances. While drinking normal, city treated tap water is not harmful to you, a reverse osmosis system will ensure that you are drinking water that is even more pure because of the way that a reverse osmosis system works.
Should I Get A Reverse Osmosis System?
If you are concerned about the quality of your water and are looking to switch to filtered water, then a reverse osmosis system may be a good option for you. If you are looking to save money by cutting down on bottled water and want a more convenient, in-home solution for better drinking water, then a Kinetico reverse osmosis system may be the right choice for you. When you use reverse osmosis systems you are keeping your drinking water healthy. Another upside to getting an RO unit is that your water will taste better.
