The system we install
Every price on this page is for the same 5-stage system we install on every residential job. Here is how it compares with many other systems.
| What we install | Many other systems | |
|---|---|---|
| Filter stages | 5 stages: sediment, two carbon blocks, the membrane, then a polishing filter | Many systems are 4 stages, often with a single, lighter carbon filter |
| Membrane output | 100 gallons a day, NSF-certified, so the tank refills quickly | Often rated 50 to 75 gallons a day, so the tank refills slowly |
| Water to drain | As little as about 1 litre to the drain for each litre you drink (1:1) | Many basic units send far more water down the drain |
| Storage tank | 3.2 gallon NSF-certified tank with an automatic shut-off valve, ready when you open the faucet | Often no certification listed |
| Warranty | 5-year equipment, 1-year labour on residential installs | Varies |
Hard water wears out RO membranes. The manufacturer recommends a water softener ahead of the system when hardness is over 10 grains per gallon. Low water pressure or high dissolved solids? A booster pump version of the same system raises the pressure to the membrane for better performance; ask us about it. More detail on our reverse osmosis installation page.
Upkeep
The four filters are changed once a year. The membrane lasts 3 to 5 years, or until the flow drops.
On hard water, a water softener ahead of the RO helps the membrane last.
