Answer: We offer a wide range of RO systems from two stage up to seven stage systems plus options within the given stages. To just sight an example, we offer over 30 different models of 5 stage RO systems. We build the Reverse Osmosis systems here in our facility in the USA, therefore we can […]
Answer: Industry standard size filters are available in 4 basic filter sizes; 1) 10″ x 2.5″ 2) 20″ x 2.5″ 3) 10″ x 4.5″ 4) 20″ x 4.5″ To determine the size of your filter housing, so that you can purchase the correct filters, remove the sump (lower portion of the filter housing that screws […]
Answer: R.O. Membrane – Turn the water off at the inlet saddle valve (or supply valve) and open the RO faucet to drain the storage tank. When the storage tank has been emptied, close the RO faucet. Next, close the valve on the storage tank. Disconnect the tubing going into the end of the membrane […]
Big Blue 20″ Pleated/Washable Answer: The difference is the media. Not all pleated filters perform the same. The cellulose free, synthetic filter media allows the pleats to handle higher solids loading and flow rates with a lower pressure drop that increases the filter efficiency and life, while reducing the filter change out cost and frequency. […]
Answer: Three or Four Stage RO System The space required for a Reverse Osmosis system will vary with the type of model you will be purchasing. A 3 or 4 stage system will be approximately 14 inches wide, 7 inches deep and 14 to 17 inches tall. The height will vary depending upon the items […]
Answer: Post Carbon Filter – Release the quick-connect fitting from both ends of the in-line post filter and remove the tubes. If your system has FPT fittings, you will need to unscrew and remove the quick-connect fittings from the in-line filter. Discard old filter. Again if your system has FPT fittings, you will need to […]
Answer: Sediment and Carbon Pre-filters – Turn the valve off on self piercing valve (or other inlet source for the incoming water). Next, turn the ball valve off on the storage tank. Open the R.O. faucet at the kitchen sink (or wherever you installed it) to de-pressurize system. Unscrew filter housings by turning counter clock […]
Answer: Color changing DI resin has a water soluble dye that will change its color and thereby yield a general indicator when the resin is exhausted (depleted). We offer both color indicating (i.e., Color-Changing) resin, and non color indicating resin (Nuclear). They are identical resins except for the dye. Bear in mind that the color-changing […]
Answer: Demineralization by Ion Exchange. DI is a mixed bed of resins which attract ions, salts or minerals and can entirely remove the metals and salts from your water. If your Reverse Osmosis system removes (95 – 98 %) of the minerals and salts, then you could follow it up with a D.I. cartridge or […]
Answer: Sediment Pre-Filter – It is best to change a sediment filter every 6 months to a year (more frequently when there is a high level of dirt and rust present in the water). Carbon Pre-Filter – It is best to change a carbon filter every 6 months to a year. Proper pre-filter maintenance will […]
