Reverse Osmosis Systems in Calgary, AB

What Is a Reverse Osmosis System?

The whole-house reverse osmosis system is a technological development that allows a home to have powerful filtration far exceeding the capabilities of standard water filters. The conventional water filter uses carbon activated charcoal that catches pollutants in small nooks across the charcoal surface. But many chemicals, heavy metals, and organic pollutants can still escape this filtration system.

What a reverses osmosis system does is use differences in water pressure to force the water supply to move through a gas permeable membrane that extracts minute contaminants. On one side of the membrane, the incoming water is placed under high pressure. The difference in pressure between the two sides pushes the water through the membrane—the process of osmosis.

Professional Reverse Osmosis Installation

We can spend all day telling you about how effective a reverse osmosis system is at cleaning water of most pollutants. It’s even helpful working in tandem with a water softener system so the water softener doesn’t place too much sodium into the water supply. But a reverse osmosis system won’t mean much to your home if it isn’t selected and installed by professionals. These are complex systems, and they must be accurately matched to a household’s plumbing. If installed correctly, a reverse osmosis filter may not stop pollutants, or it might be so powerful that it causes water pressure to fall. You can trust our experts to handle your reverse osmosis system installation correctly.
