How a Reverse Osmosis System Works?

Prefiltration: When water first enters the RO system, it flows through a prefilter that protects the automatic shut-off and the membrane from clogging with debris. The job of the prefilter is to filter out larger particles such as silt, rust or scale, extending the life of your R.O. membrane and allowing it to tackle the smaller contaminants.

In a higher output T.F.C unit, the prefilter also has activated carbon in it. Not only does the porous activated carbon remove chlorine particles, (which is necessary to protect the refined T.F.C. membrane), it serves to filter out other contaminants as well.

The Membrane: Water then travels to the operational center of the system - the membrane. Here, most particles too small to be trapped by the prefilter are removed from the water stream and rinsed to the drain.

The membrane's microscopic pores allow Hydrogen and Oxygen molecules through, (and water is H2O). The majority of the dissolved solids and other contaminants are flushed into the drain's water stream and exit the system.

The "Final Polish": After the membrane, the R.O. water is routed to the holding tank. The automatic shut-off tells the system when it's time to make more water. When you turn on the faucet and draw water from the holding tank, it then goes through its final stage of filtration, a carbon filter, to remove any remaining tastes and odors before reaching your glass. This adds a "Final Polish" to your water.

How a Water Softener Works?

The performance of a water softener is dependent on two key components; a resin bed that cleans the water and precision equipment that cleans the resin. The two most significant elements that differentiate one softener from another is the volume of resin and the type of control valve.

The resin tank: contains media called resin. The resin attracts and collects minerals from hard water. Once the resin is saturated with hardness minerals it must be cleaned and regenerated. Once regenerated, the resin is ready to remove more minerals from the water.

The control valve: routes the water flow through the system and controls the operating cycle. Hard water passes through the resin bed to become soft. During regeneration, water flow is reversed to clean the resin bed. Brine is pulled in and then rinsed out to regenerate the resin, preparing it to soften more water. The brine tank is then refilled with fresh water for future cycles.

The brine tank: stores salt and water to make brine which is used for regenerating the resin. Resin can be regenerated with sodium from salt or potassium from potassium chloride.
