Reverse Osmosis Drinking Water Systems in Edmonton

Water enters a sediment filter that catches grit and rust, then one or two carbon blocks that strip chlorine — critical, because chlorine destroys an RO membrane. The membrane itself does the real work, separating dissolved solids and sending them down the drain while clean water fills the storage tank.

On the way to your faucet, water passes a final polishing carbon filter that removes any tank taste. Good systems test at 95–99% reduction of total dissolved solids, and we measure yours with a meter on install day.

RO membranes scale up on hard water. Feeding an RO system softened water dramatically extends membrane life and keeps rejection rates high, which is one reason the softener-plus-RO pairing is the setup we install most often.

If you already own a softener, an RO system is a straightforward one to two hour add-on with no change to your existing plumbing.

Pre- and post-filters get changed roughly once a year; the membrane lasts three to five years on softened water. We’ll either set you up to do it yourself in ten minutes or add you to our service schedule and handle it.
