  • How do reverse osmosis and ultrafilter drinking water systems work?

    Reverse osmosis and ultrafilter drinking water systems use a series of filters to remove impurities and contaminants from well or city water. Reverse osmosis systems use a semipermeable membrane to filter out impurities, while ultrafiltration systems use a series of filters to remove particles and bacteria. According to Forbes, reverse osmosis works at the molecular level to eliminate up to 99% of common impurities and dangerous contaminants from water, such as chemicals, bacteria, metal, dirt, and other organic compounds.
