Micron Pure Water Solutions - A Division of Reilly's Reliable Restoration

STAGE 1 - 5 Micron Filter: Removes dirt sediments and other physical properties. STAGE 2 - Carbon Block: Reduces chemicals such as cholorine and ammonia. STAGE 3 - Carbon Block: Further reduces organics, ordours and other chemicals STAGE 4 - Reverse Osmosis Membrane 50 Gallons / day. Membrane removes 93-97% of dissolved mineral salts and other contaminants. STAGE 5 - Post Carbon Filter: Final polish process that enhances and clarifies your drinking water.

How does it work?
Reverse osmosis, also known as hyperfiltration, is the finest filtration known. This process will allow the removal of particles as small as ions from a solution. Reverse osmosis is used to purify water and remove salts and other impurities in order to improve the color, taste or properties of the fluid. It can be used to purify fluids such as ethanol and glycol, which will pass through the reverse osmosis membrane, while rejecting other ions and contaminants from passing. The most common use for reverse osmosis is in purifying water. It is used to produce water that meets the most demanding specifications that are currently in place.

Reverse osmosis uses a membrane that is semi-permeable, allowing the fluid that is being purified to pass through it, while rejecting the contaminants that remain. Most reverse osmosis technology uses a process known as "crossflow" to allow the membrane to continually clean itself. As some of the fluid passes through the membrane the rest continues downstream, sweeping the rejected species away from the membrane. The process of reverse osmosis requires a driving force to push the fluid through the membrane, and the most common force is pressure from a pump. The higher the pressure, the larger the driving force. As the concentration of the fluid being rejected increases, the driving force required to continue concentrating the fluid increases.

Reverse osmosis is capable of rejecting bacteria, salts, sugars, proteins, particles, dyes, and other constituents that have a molecular weight of greater than 150-250 daltons. The separation of ions with reverse osmosis is aided by charged particles. This means that dissolved ions that carry a charge, such as salts, are more likely to be rejected by the membrane than those that are not charged, such as organics. The larger the charge and the larger the particle, the more likely it will be rejected.

TFC membrane generally lasts longer than CTA but cannot take chlorine. If source water is chlorinated, TFC follows a carbon stage which removes chlorine.

Small RO systems range between 3 and 5 stages of filtration.

The hole size in an RO membrane is less than 0.0002 microns.

• Sediment filter vastly reduces dirt, sand, rust particles and other sediments
• The activated carbon filter reduces chlorine, fluoride, odor, tri-halo methane, gas additive MTBE, and organic pollutants such as pesticides, EDB, PCB, benzene and TCE.
• The reverse osmosis filter reduces cryptosporidium, giardia, viruses, tri-halo methane, ecoli bacteria, radioactive radon, ethylene glycol (anti-freeze), arsenic, copper, iron, lead, manganese, as well as dissolved chemical solids such as bicarbonate, cyanide, ferrocyanide, nitrates and nitrites
• RO membrane will stop viruses and bacteria. There is a possibility, however remote, that bacteria may grow in the post-membrane portion of the system, especially in warmer climate. If this is a concern, an ultraviolet (UV) stage is added. The UV light is designed to kill all living cells including viruses, bacteria, amoeba and protozoa.

Is our water safe to drink?
City officers have guidelines to follow re: how much chlorine or chloramines ( Ammonia and chlorine compounds ) must remain in the water as it travels through the miles of water lines to control recontamination.

They say the bacteria is under control; Not that all harmful pollutants have been removed! These disinfectant chemicals have side effects on humans. The toxic compounds that form by combining with the decaying matter can cause cancer and other serious health concerns.

In most cases water is safe to drink, but most people like to take added measures to ensure the safety of their water, as well as improve the aesthetics of their water.

A reverse osmosis systems uses a number of filters, and a reverse osmosis membrane to remove up to 99% of unwanted substances from your water.

Different people need different types of filtration systems. Ask our professionals for your water which is right for you.
