FAQs
What is a reverse-osmosis (RO) tap system and how does it work?
A reverse-osmosis system pushes incoming water through several pre-filters and then a semi-permeable membrane that is fine enough to block dissolved salts, heavy metals, micro-organisms, and chemical molecules. Pure water molecules pass through to a storage tank and dedicated drinking-water tap, while the rejected contaminants are rinsed to drain. The result is exceptionally clean, low-TDS (total-dissolved-solids) water delivered straight from the RO tap.
Which contaminants will the RO system remove from Halls’ municipal or borehole water?
The multi-stage RO unit is designed to reduce 95–99 % of common dissolved substances found in the Halls area, including chlorine and chloramine, fluoride, nitrates, lead, arsenic, chromium, sodium, pesticides, micro-plastics, pharmaceutical residues, and water-borne bacteria or cysts. Sediment and rust are caught by the pre-filters, activated carbon removes taste and odour compounds, and the RO membrane handles the microscopic dissolved solids.
How is an RO tap installed in my kitchen, and how long does it take?
Our technicians mount the compact RO module under your sink, connect it to the cold-water feed and drain, drill (or reuse) a 12–14 mm hole in the sink or countertop for the dedicated faucet, and fit a 3–10 litre pressurised storage tank. Typical installation in Halls homes takes 2–3 hours with no major plumbing alterations. All fittings are food-grade, and we sanitize and pressure-test the system before hand-over.
How often do I need to replace the filters and membrane, and what maintenance is required?
Pre-filters (5 µm sediment, carbon block, and granular activated carbon) should be changed every 6–12 months depending on local water quality and usage. The RO membrane generally lasts 24–36 months. An annual service, which includes sanitizing the housing, checking flow restrictors, and testing TDS levels, keeps the system performing optimally. We offer reminder alerts and low-cost maintenance plans to simplify upkeep for Halls residents.
Does an RO system waste water, and can efficiency be improved?
Standard RO units create a concentrate (reject) stream to flush away contaminants. Expect roughly 2–3 litres of reject water for every litre of purified water produced. To reduce wastage you can (1) route the drain line to a storage container for garden or cleaning use, (2) install an optional permeate-pump or water-on-water (WOW) system that cuts the waste ratio to about 1:1, or (3) choose our high-efficiency RO models with built-in water recovery technology.
How much does an RO tap system cost in Halls, and what after-sales support is included?
A complete under-sink RO package—including 5-stage purifier, chrome faucet, storage tank, installation, and first-year service—starts from R4 800. Larger capacity or remineralising models range up to R8 500. All systems carry a 12-month workmanship guarantee and 2-year manufacturer warranty on major components. Our Halls service team provides free water testing at purchase, annual maintenance reminders, and 48-hour call-out support should any issue arise.
