You are what you drink…


As with the surface of the Earth, water makes up over two-thirds of the human body. And if you’re like most people, you’ll consume over 16,000 gallons of water during your lifetime. It’s obvious, then, that the purity of the water you drink can have a great impact on your overall health. Contaminated water can contaminate your body. 


How Reverse Osmosis Works

Reverse osmosis (R/O) uses no chemicals or electricity to purify water. Instead, the water pressure already in your house is used to force water through a series of filters and membranes. First, raw water goes through a 5-micron filter that removes solid sediments like rust and sand. This filtered water then passes through a semi-permeable membrane to remove dissolved contaminants like asbestos, arsenic, mercury, chloride, bacteria, nitrates, sodium and lead. The membrane removes particles so small they can’t even be detected with most microscopes!

Contaminants blocked by the membrane are flushed out of the system and down the drain. Most reverse osmosis systems stop there. But the Aquarius Reverse Osmosis System goes two steps further. First, a prolonged contact filter absorbs any gases remaining in the processed water. The water then goes into a holding tank. When you turn on the tap, your water goes through yet another filter. This final post-filter refines the water one more time to help ensure you get the best-tasting, most odor-free water available.



How Reverse Osmosis Benefits You
The Aquarius Reverse Osmosis System makes an average of fifteen gallons a day of sparkling, clean water – up to three times as much as many competing systems! Because the system uses pressure from your water lines, treated water can be fed to your refrigerator’s ice maker, any hot and cold water dispensers you may have, and even built-in coffee makers.
