What is Reverse Osmosis? And How Can it Get You Cleaner, Tastier Drinking Water?

Have you ever wondered how bottled water gets so crisp and clean? Or maybe you've heard about reverse osmosis (RO) systems but aren't sure exactly what they do. Well, wonder no more! In this blog post, we'll break down the science of RO and how it can benefit your home.

What is Reverse Osmosis?

Reverse osmosis is a water purification technology that uses a semi-permeable membrane to remove a wide range of contaminants from your water supply. Here's the gist:

  • Imagine a special filter that only allows water molecules to pass through, but blocks out everything else. That's the semi-permeable membrane.
  • Normally, water naturally flows from an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration (like from your clean glass to a glass filled with sugar). This is called osmosis.
  • In RO systems, we apply pressure to reverse this natural flow. The pressure forces the water through the membrane, leaving most contaminants behind.

What Does RO Remove?

RO systems are effective at removing a wide variety of unwanted elements from your water, including:

  • Chlorine and chloramines (common disinfectants that can affect taste and odor)
  • Lead, arsenic, and other heavy metals
  • Fluoride (depending on the specific RO system)
  • Salts and minerals
  • Bacteria and viruses

Benefits of RO Systems for Your Home

  • Cleaner, Tastier Water: RO filtration dramatically improves the taste and odor of your drinking water. You'll notice a difference in everything from your morning coffee to your evening tea.
  • Reduced Contaminants: RO systems provide superior filtration compared to standard pitcher filters, ensuring you and your family have access to cleaner, healthier water.
  • Convenience: No more lugging heavy bottles of water! With an RO system, you'll have a constant supply of fresh, filtered water right at your tap.
