Reverse Osmosis Purification System- Repair & Installation

Frequently Ask Questions

• 1. How does a reverse osmosis system work?

  A reverse osmosis system works by pushing water through a semi-permeable membrane using pressure. The membrane only allows water molecules to pass through, while blocking other contaminants. The purified water is then collected in a storage tank and dispensed through a faucet.

• 2. How often should the filters and membrane be replaced?

  The filters and membrane should be replaced according to the manufacturer’s recommendations, which typically range from 6 months to 2 years depending on the usage and quality of the water.

• 3. Can a reverse osmosis system waste water?

  Yes, a reverse osmosis system can waste water as it requires a certain amount of water to flush out the contaminants that are blocked by the membrane. However, many modern systems have a water-saving feature that reduces water waste.

• 4. Can a reverse osmosis system be used for well water?

  Yes, a reverse osmosis system can be used for well water, but it may require additional pre-treatment to remove certain contaminants that are commonly found in well water, such as iron, manganese, and sediment.
