What is Reverse Osmosis?

Reverse osmosis filtration is a water treatment process in which water is forced through a membrane that has very small holes. Clean water passes through and impurities that are too big to pass through the membrane are left behind and flushed away. Reverse osmosis can remove dissolved minerals that cause hardness, toxic chemicals and other impurities. It can improve the taste of your water; plus, treated water will not produce a mineral build-up in kettles and coffee makers. Reverse Osmosis units may also remove contaminants such as chromium, mercury and nitrates. Reverse Osmosis also removes fluoride.
