Reverse Osmosis Equipment - Are You Overpaying and Does it Under Deliver?

Reverse osmosis equipment may be getting quite a bit of press right now

, but as soon as people understand just how inadequate this type of system is for purifying their drinking water, all of the publicity will die down. These machines are excellent if you want to ensure that minerals in the water will not be present to possibly scratch the paint on your car when you wash it. They aren't very useful for many other purposes however.

All that you are getting when you purchase these overpriced appliances is a demineralization tool, with a chemical reducing activated granular carbon pre-filter. An activated carbon filter is a useful tool to have, because it blocks a large number of the toxic and carcinogenic chemical agents present in your water. Demineralization is not something you need however; particulates were removed from the water before it left the treatment facility.

The activated granular carbon filter is the only redeeming quality that reverse osmosis equipment has, and even this filter cannot purify your water by itself. You will need three other filters in addition to the activated carbon unit in order to remove all of the chemicals, surviving microbes, and toxic heavy metal traces from your water. Let me tell you exactly what to look for in a water purifier.

In order for you to ensure that your water is as free of chemicals as possible, your purification system will have to incorporate a multi media block. Between this filter and activated granular carbon, up to 99.99% of the chemical contamination will be eliminated from your drinking water. You will just need one more filter for microbes, and one more for toxic metals.

You will never find a piece of reverse osmosis equipment that features a sub micron filter, and an ion exchange. Yet these filters are invaluable for the prevention of waterborne diseases, and for removing toxins such as copper and lead. An ion exchange is also effective in keeping the pH level of your water in balance, and it adds healthy electrolytes.

Reverse osmosis equipment simply doesn't offer you the protection you need in order to feel safe about drinking your water. With a real purification system featuring the four filters I described, you are guaranteed the purest water possible.
