Reverse Osmosis Water Filtration System

Reverse osmosis is considered one of the most all-around effective ways of eliminating water contaminants. Reverse osmosis filters can remove up to 99% of lead, asbestos and 82 other additional contaminants. The microscopic nature of a reverse osmosis filter membrane can filter out not only the larger contaminants most water filtration systems catch, but it can actually remove dissolved substances and minerals from within the water. This is because the membrane essentially strips the water down to basic molecules as it passes through.

The innovative Quick Change twist and lock filter casing design makes service simple. Twist off the old cartridge and twist on the new. No messy sump removal. Aqua Flo Platinum systems make drinking water better and life easier.
