The REOS HOME system is primarily designed for the filtration of tap water. Here are the details of the different types of water that can be filtered:
Tap water: The system is ideal for filtering municipal tap water. It effectively removes contaminants such as chlorine, heavy metals, uranium, calcium, sodium, nitrate, medical residues and microorganisms up to 99%.
Well water: The system can also filter well water, provided it meets the basic requirements for raw water for reverse osmosis systems. Well water can contain varying amounts of sediment and contaminants, so it is important to test the water quality before installation. A coarser pre-filter and in some cases an iron filter may be necessary before the system.
Rainwater: With appropriate pre-filtration, the system can also filter rainwater. However, it is recommended that the water is first pre-treated using sediment and carbon filters to remove larger particles and organic contaminants. Please note, however, that with rainwater, the filter replacement intervals can vary greatly (depending on the level of contamination).
Spring water: The system can also be used to filter spring water if the water is first tested for gross impurities and pretreated if necessary.
For all of the water types mentioned, it is important to ensure that the water quality meets the requirements of the reverse osmosis system to ensure optimal performance and service life of the filters. If there is any uncertainty about the water quality, a water analysis should be carried out and additional pre-filters installed if necessary.
