Best Reverse Osmosis with UV Light
What does reverse osmosis with UV light remove?
Most RO UV water purifier systems are available in different stages. Each stage involves a specific filter that removes specific contaminants. The stages include:
- Stage 1 sediment filter
- Stage 2: carbon pre-filter
- Stage 3 reverse osmosis membrane
- Stage 4: carbon post-filter-final polishing before the filtered water is delivered to the faucet
- Stage 5: UV filter –this is the last stage of the RO system. The water passes through the UV light before dispensing to the faucet to eliminate bacteria, viruses, and protozoan cysts.
Pre-filters help remove particles and chlorine.
Ro membrane help reduce total dissolved solids (TDS), turbidity, asbestos, lead and other toxic heavy metals, radium, and many dissolved organics.
Post filter to polish
UV light eliminates bacteria, viruses, and protozoan cysts (specifically giardia lamblia and cryptosporidium in the water).
A UV light is installed after any other water treatment system.
Do you need a reverse osmosis system with UV light?
Yes!
Most people know the RO system as the finest method of water purification. It is known for removing 99.99% of contaminants in both well water and tap water, including bacteria and viruses.
Then what is the work of the UV system that removes bacteria and viruses, the same contaminants the RO membrane removes? Continue reading to get the answer.
The reverse osmosis system purifies water through various stages, and the RO membrane takes time before it produces purified water. The whole process is very slow and takes time before you fill a glass of water. Unless you are using a tankless reverse osmosis system, the slow process requires you to utilize a storage tank so that you can filter water and store it for the future while you wait.
This storage tank poses a lot of danger because it is dark and warm. This is the right environment for bacteria, viruses, and algae to multiply. Also, chlorine is eliminated in the process, which can help protect bacteria growth.
The growth of bacteria in the storage tank is one of the drawbacks of the reverse osmosis system. Before water is dispensed from the faucet, UV light is required to eliminate bacteria, viruses, and algae.
Hoping you have a good reason to buy reverse osmosis with UV light.
