5 Stage Reverse Osmosis System

Enjoy purified drinking and cooking water straight from your tap with a reverse osmosis (RO) system. Learn how this advanced filtration process removes contaminants, delivering healthier, better-tasting water.

Understanding Osmosis and Reverse Osmosis

Osmosis is a natural phenomenon where a solvent (typically water) moves across a semipermeable membrane from a region of lower solute concentration to a region of higher solute concentration. This movement aims to equalize the concentration of solutes on both sides of the membrane. For example, in a sugar water solution, water will move across the membrane to dilute the more concentrated solution.

Reverse osmosis, as the name suggests, reverses this natural process. By applying external pressure to the more concentrated solution, water is forced through the semipermeable membrane, leaving the dissolved contaminants behind. In simpler terms, pressure is used to push the water through the membrane, filtering out contaminants.

A 5 Stage Reverse Osmosis System, such as the Puronics Micromax 8500, employs a multi-stage filtration process to ensure optimal water purity.

The Micromax 8500 offers a range of features designed for convenience, efficiency, and reliable performance:

1. Easy Filter Changes: Patented Easy Change sanitary filter cartridges make filter replacement quick and mess-free. The water automatically shuts off when you remove the cartridges, preventing leaks.
2. Efficient Operation: The system operates on your home's existing water pressure and doesn't require any electricity.
3. Space-Saving Design: The slim, low-profile design of the system requires minimal space, making it a great fit for tight spaces.
4. Simple Installation: A kitchen faucet adapter allows for easy connection to your cold water supply, eliminating the need for needle valves or specialized plumbing.
5. Stylish Faucet: The system includes a designer long-neck faucet that complements any kitchen decor.
6. Quality Assurance: Every system undergoes rigorous quality control and testing. The results of this testing are included in the packaging, so you can be confident in your purchase.
7. Durable Construction: High-quality fittings, valves, and durable construction ensure years of reliable, leak-free performance.

What Does Reverse Osmosis Remove?

Reverse osmosis systems are capable of removing a wide range of contaminants, including:

• ✓ Salts (e.g., sodium chloride)
• ✓ Metals (e.g., lead, chromium, copper)
• ✓ Arsenic: Naturally present in groundwater, arsenic can cause various health issues, including skin problems, cancer, and cardiovascular and nervous system damage.
• ✓ Cadmium: This contaminant can enter water supplies through industrial waste and pipe corrosion, potentially leading to nausea, vomiting, and long-term damage to the kidneys, liver, bones, and blood.
• ✓ Cadmium: This contaminant can enter water supplies through industrial waste and pipe corrosion, potentially leading to nausea, vomiting, and long-term damage to the kidneys, liver, bones, and blood.
• ✓ Chromium-6: An industrial chemical, Chromium-6 is a known carcinogen linked to several cancers and other health problems.
• ✓ Nitrates and Nitrites: These can come from fertilizer runoff, animal waste, and septic systems, posing risks to pregnant women and infants.
• ✓ Lead: Often entering water through aging lead pipes, lead is highly dangerous, especially for children, and can cause developmental issues and damage to the brain, kidneys, and nervous system.

* The Puronics Micromax 8500 is engineered to significantly reduce these and other contaminants, often achieving removal rates of up to 99%.

Is Reverse Osmosis Right for You?

If you are concerned about the quality of your tap water and want a reliable solution for clean, purified water, a reverse osmosis system may be an excellent choice. Whether for residential or commercial use, RO systems offer a proven method for removing a wide range of contaminants and improving water quality.

The Micromax 8500, 5-stage system effectively reduces the majority of contaminants such as pharmaceuticals, PFAS (potentially toxic chemicals), chlorine, dissolved metals, lead, waterborne cysts, and others that may be present in your water supply. The simple design fits easily under any kitchen sink. The Micromax 8500 will assure your family will benefit from the reduced risks associated with emerging manmade and other contaminants that may be in water supplies.
