Description

Reverse osmosis is a water treatment process that forces water through an extremely fine membrane to remove dissolved minerals. Purified water passes through the membrane and collects in a storage container. Small household reverse osmosis systems will produce 1 to 5 gallons of water per day. If total dissolved solids is greater than 2,000 ppm, or more than 5 gallons of water per day is required, a booster pump will be required.
