Reverse osmosis is the optimum way to rid your water of these impurities. The RO system will remove approximately 95% of the contaminants in water, such as chlorine, lead, fluorides, bacteria, viruses and unpleasant tastes and odours. RO water is used in many different applications from Dental surgery to smear free window cleaning.

                                     If you separate a solution of salts from pure water using a basic semi-permeable membrane, like a sausage skin, the pure water passes through the membrane and tries to dilute the salt solution. If the salt solution is connected to a vertical pipe then the progressively diluted solution will fill the pipe until the ‘osmotic pressure’ drawing the pure water through the membrane is the same as the head pressure of the diluted solution. This process can be reversed hence ‘reverse osmosis’ by applying a higher pressure to the salt solution. Pure water will then pass the other way through the membrane in a process that is easy to visualize as filtration where the filter will only let through the small water molecules and retain almost all the other molecules. This means that water containing a high level of natural salts can be purified without the need for chemical regenerates, such as acid or caustic. Filterclean supply and install reverse osmosis systems for home users, pubs, restaurants, window cleaners and larger industrial concerns.
