Reverse Osmosis
Reverse osmosis?
What are peoples experience of domestic reverse osmosis plants at the kitchen sink. is this good drinking water
Reverse Osmosis Drinking Water System
Reverse osmosis: Mechanical pressure is applied to an impure solution to force pure water through a semi-permeable membrane. Reverse Osmosis is one of the most convenient and economical methods of reducing dissolved solids in potable drinking water. That means drastic reductions in salts, sugars, proteins, particles, dyes, and bacteria.
Ultraviolet (UV) Treatment
When combined with your RO system, UV light treatment offers an inexpensive and efficient way of disinfecting your family’s water supply.
How it works:
The Ultra Violet light ray penetrates the outer membrane of the bacteria, viruses, yeast, mold and algae, and it destroys the DNA that is responsible for the reproduction and survival of the organisms.
The high germicidal output assures 99.99% reduction of bacteria and viruses…without leaving anyharmful residues in the treated water. The systems design makes it very manageable for installation and maintenance.
READ your bottled water label….. Most bottled water is run through the RO process however:
Cost
The next time that you fill up your gas tank and grab a bottle of water, compare the price! A 16 ounce bottle of water sells for $0.69 or $5.52 per gallon, probably more than twice as much per gallon as gas! Calculate that cost at a bottle a day and you could end up paying as much as $248.00 a year for bottled water!
Convenience
Using bottled water as an alternative source requires storage and handling. A five gallon bottle weighs 40lbs!! Imagine dropping that bottle, compromising the valve, and ending up with a large mess on your hands!!!!
Environmental Impact
Unless you recycle, the bottled water containers create an environmental disposal issue. If you feel that you are environmentally conscious consider using the internet to research the time it takes for plastic to “breakdown”.
Keep it Clean
The following information was taken from: The University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, College of Agriculture, Cooperative Extension Service:
“If you choose bottled water after careful investigation, keep in mind that all of your hard work will go to waste if you aren’t careful about keeping your bottled water clean. You have to be faithful in maintaining the hygiene of your bottled water, or you may increase your exposure to bacteria. Bacteria grow best in warm, moist areas. The wet, warm, threaded cap of an unrefrigerated bottle of water is a perfect place for bacteria to grow; they will begin to grow as soon as you break the seal. If ingested, these bacteria can cause gastrointestinal problems and other health risks. The key is to maintain the cleanliness of your bottles and store them properly. Follow these hints:
1) Store the bottle in a refrigerator at a temperature above freezing but less than 50 degrees Fahrenheit.
2) Wipe the seal with a clean cloth after each use.
3) Avoid any type of buildup in the bottle cap.
4) If your bottle is refillable, make sure it is well-cleaned and rinsed before refilling. If possible, recycle the old bottle and obtain a fresh, sterile, sealed bottle. 5 gallon water dispensers must also be kept meticulously clean to prevent bacteria from growing in the reservoir area and bubbling into the bottle.”
It is clear that bottled water is cumbersome, expensive, wasteful, and could harbor bacteria if handled improperly. Reverse Osmosis would eliminate the bulk of these issues for your family and be very cost efficient. Providing your own washable, reusable containers could eliminate the need for bottled water on the go!
