Reverse Osmosis Water Filter Services
Most reverse osmosis water filter systems in Newark are point-of-use systems attached directly to appliances. This setup does not filter your entire house, but it provides a reliable supply of clean water. Typically, we install reverse osmosis systems under sinks; however, we can also attach a filter to your fridge for clean water and ice. Whole-house reverse osmosis systems are another option, but they require extra pumps to generate sufficient pressure. We might recommend a whole-house filter if you are experiencing severe water quality issues that other filters cannot address.
Benefits of reverse osmosis filtration include:
- Comprehensive filtering
- Better health
- Improved taste
- Compact size
- Long-term solutions
- Less plastic waste
- Additional uses for wastewater
When water enters the system, the pre-filter removes dirt, sediment, chlorine, and other debris. Next, the unit pushes water through a semipermeable membrane that traps most particles on one side and delivers clean water to a storage tank. Finally, the water passes through a post-filter when you turn on the faucet, eliminating anything that the membrane missed. The wastewater goes to a separate tank for non-drinking purposes. You can use this water to water your salt-tolerant plants and for other purposes. If you’re worried about water waste, permeate pumps increase efficiency and reduce the amount of brine.
Reverse osmosis systems paired with pre and post-filters can reduce a wide range of contaminants, including volatile organic compounds (VOCs), sediment, fluoride, microplastics, pesticides, heavy metals, and arsenic. This makes your water safer to drink and reduces your risk of medical issues. You’ll also notice a better taste and fewer odors. Signs that you need a water filter include strange-tasting water, unusual odors, discolored water, stained appliances, and digestive issues. Try calling your local health department to learn more about your water quality. You could also buy a test kit and send your water to a certified lab. The report gives you more information about contaminants in city water.
Their compact size makes reverse osmosis filters popular among homeowners. Instead of attaching a device to the faucet or installing a large tank, you can hire us to install a filter underneath your sink. These systems come with their own faucets, but they won’t be an eyesore in your kitchen. For comprehensive purification, ask us about reverse osmosis filters with ultraviolet (UV) lights. The radiation kills viruses and bacteria in your water, adding an extra layer of protection.
