FAQs
How does an advanced reverse-osmosis (RO) system work and what contaminants does it remove?
Our RO systems force household water through a semi-permeable membrane that has microscopic pores roughly 0.0001 microns wide. Dissolved solids, heavy metals (lead, arsenic, chromium), nitrates, fluoride, chlorine by-products, PFAS, and up to 99.9 % of bacteria and viruses are rejected and flushed to drain, while pure H₂O molecules pass through to the storage tank. Post-carbon polishing then removes any residual tastes or odors, so you get bottled-quality water straight from your tap.
Why choose an advanced RO system over a standard pitcher or faucet filter in Grandview?
Pitcher and faucet filters use granular activated carbon that mainly targets chlorine taste and odor. They leave most dissolved solids, fluoride, and emerging contaminants behind. Our multi-stage RO units add a sediment pre-filter, high-rejection membrane, carbon block, and optional remineralization cartridge, giving you up to 10× cleaner water and verified removal of contaminants common to Grandview’s municipal supply, including agricultural runoff nitrates from surrounding farmland.
What maintenance is required and how often?
1) Sediment & carbon pre-filters: replace every 6–12 months to protect the membrane. 2) RO membrane: replace every 2–3 years, depending on incoming water quality (we test TDS at each service visit). 3) Post-carbon polishing filter: annually. 4) Storage tank sanitization: once a year. We offer an affordable service plan that schedules filter shipments or technician visits, keeps your warranty active, and records all maintenance for real estate disclosure purposes.
Will installing an RO system waste a lot of water or lower my home’s pressure?
Modern high-efficiency membranes use a 1:1 or 2:1 recovery ratio—only 1–2 gallons are sent to drain for every gallon of purified water, far better than older 4:1 systems. We can also route reject water to a garden or gray-water line if local code allows. Because the system dispenses from its own pressurized tank, it has no noticeable effect on whole-house water pressure; only the dedicated RO faucet draws from the tank.
Can the system connect to my refrigerator ice maker or coffee machine?
Yes. During installation we can tee the RO line to supply refrigerators, free-standing ice makers, espresso machines, or humidifiers. We use ¼-inch NSF-certified tubing, quick-connect fittings, and a pressure regulator where needed to ensure consistent flow and to protect appliance warranties.
How much does professional installation cost in Grandview and are rebates available?
Complete turn-key installation—including site inspection, drilling the countertop/faucet hole, plumbing the drain saddle, and leak-testing—typically ranges from $375 to $550, depending on cabinet access and any additional appliance hookups. The City of Grandview currently offers a $50 water-conservation rebate for systems with a 2:1 or better recovery ratio, and some utility districts grant a further $25 credit. We prepare all paperwork to make sure you receive every available incentive.
