Reverse osmosis filters: an effective solution for clean and safe drinking water
Even today, the unpleasant fact that water quality can be poor in urban as well as rural areas is still common. One of the most effective ways to improve this is through reverse osmosis technology, which can be used in domestic and commercial applications. In this article, we will briefly look at the advantages of these filters and what to consider when choosing one.
Advantages of reverse osmosis:
- High purification efficiency: RO systems can remove up to 99% of contaminants, providing safe and tasty water;
- Improved taste and smell: Unwanted odours and unpleasant tastes are removed, making the water more pleasant to drink;
- Water softening: The systems can reduce the hardness of the water, which extends the working life of household appliances;
- Additional mineralisation of water;
- Environmentally friendly alternative to store-bought bottled water.
Where are reverse osmosis systems best used?
Reverse osmosis systems are flexible and suitable for a wide range of applications and water types, for example:
- Households connected to a centralised or local water supply;
- Country houses with their own borehole;
- Cafes, restaurants and offices;
- Conventional and commercial coffee and ice machines where water purity is particularly important for the longevity of the equipment.
How to choose the right reverse osmosis filter for you?
When choosing a reverse osmosis filter, it is worth paying attention to the following details:
- How much water it consumes (measured in litres per hour or litres per day);
- Whether it requires an additional water storage tank;
- How many filtration stages the system has;
- Whether the system offers additional water mineralisation;
- How easy it is to install and maintain.
As an example, the Aquaphor reverse osmosis systems in our online shop come with integrated water storage tanks and a water mineralisation function, and are easy to install and maintain, even with your own hands.
All in all, reverse osmosis filters are a modern, efficient and safe solution for clean water. Although its initial cost may seem higher than a conventional water filter, in addition to purifying water, it also improves the overall water quality, removes unwanted odours, reduces microplastics in the water and, as a result, protects your health.
