In our years of experience, we have learned many things the hard way.  To borrow a saying: “We know a thing or two, because we have seen a thing or two.” We have built and installed thousands of whole house reverse osmosis systems, and over the years, we made a lot of mistakes… which we learned the hard way. We still see consumers making the same mistakes we did ten or twenty years ago, so we thought we would share our experience to save you from making mistakes that you may not know about.  In the long run, doing it the right way will save  

This system will use all NSF, WQA, and FDA Compliant American Made Components. These systems are manufactured in our Indianapolis, Indiana Plant with 100% American Made Components.

The short answer is that you don’t need to use Reverse Osmosis ahead of a DI system… unless you prefer to spend a lot more money than you need.  Then by all means, just use DI.  In fact, there are many companies out there who’s revenue streams count on you not using Reverse Osmosis.

More often than not, when a company installs a commercial reverse osmosis system, they start with a system that really doesn’t fit their needs for a variety of reasons. Most times, the reason is that they simply don’t know what they don’t know.

When we think of Canada, we think of vast expanses of forests and beautiful lakes and mountain streams. We think of it as a beautiful natural setting... and it is... except when it isn't! It was recently reported by AP Writer Martha Mendoza, that there are high concentrations of lead in the water. In fact, in some areas, the lead level is consistently higher than in Flint, Michigan. Mendoza re...

If you happen to believe that, you probably better stop reading this right about now.  Many Americans don't even think twice about drinking a glass of water. However, a report recently released by the Environmental Working Group found more than 270 harmful contaminants in local drinking water across the nation. These substances are linked to cancer, damage to the brain and nervous system, h...

Whenever a natural disaster strikes, it's human nature that we want to help, whether it be an earthquake, fire, tornado or hurricane. So, as in the case of the devastating Hurricane Dorian that recently decimated the Bahamas, many non-profits, churches, and NGO's are quick to help and one of the first things they do is send about a hundred trillion plastic bottles of water to the people who need ...

278. that is the number of zip code areas with lead poisoning levels twice that of Flint Michigan. This number will continue to increase. As of 2019 The American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) estimated the total cost of water infrastructure repairs needed is 3.6 trillion dollars by the year 2020. According to the American Water Works Association there are approximately 240,000 water main brea...

I just came back from the Craft Brewer's Conference called Brew Expo America in Denver, Colorado this past weekend, and while I was extremely excited by all of the craft brewers I met and the quality of prospects that we generated, I was somewhat frustrated at times by some Craft Brewers beliefs about the role water plays in their products. Here's an actual conversation I had with a craft brewer...

Question: Hi. I have well water. The TDS in the tap water is 700. I have a 3 stage RO system. Number 1 is the sediment filter. Number 2 is the TFC membrane. Number 3 is the carbon post filter. I have added a permeate pump. The water coming out of the RO is 200 ppm. Is this too high? Is there anything else that I can add to the system to reduce the ppm even more? Thanks in advance, Paul A...

Question:  Hi read through the info you have about RO systems and how they strip the minerals. You don’t talk about putting them back and only state you really don't have to anyway. OK, but the water tastes bad, tea tastes bad. So what am I to do learn to live with the taste or is there something that will actually add some safe amount and type of minerals back to adjust the taste? Thank...
