What is Reverse Osmosis?
Simply put, it’s a very effective method of water purification. It employs a slightly permeable membrane that traps ions, minerals and unwanted organic matter to filter out the bad and leave behind clean water. In reverse osmosis, pressure is applied in order to overcome osmotic pressure. On one side of the membrane, you have non potable water and when the pressure on the other side is reduced, the non-potable water naturally moves from high to low pressure to achieve equilibrium whilst leaving behind unwanted contaminants. Reverse osmosis is a very successful method of removing dissolved or suspended chemicals and biological material such as bacteria from water. This makes it particularly useful in industrial applications. It is an effective method of creating potable water.
Hospitality
Adding a reverse osmosis water system to your hotel or hostel is a really good look for your business. When your customers check in and find they can drink cool, clean water right out of the tap, it leaves an impression. You get the added benefit of reducing both costs and waste at the same time. It is also a great money saver in the restaurant industry, providing fresh drinkable water for both cooking and your clientele.
Hospitals and Doctors’ Offices
It goes without saying that clean water is imperative in the healthcare industry. It’s needed in virtually every level of care applied to the patient. Hospitals often use a high quality reverse osmosis system to meet their needs for clean water. It’s an efficient way to have top quality water on demand.
Car Washes
Do you ever wonder how car washes achieve the “spotless wash”? The answer is in a reverse osmosis water system. By filtering out minerals, heavy metals, chemicals and other impurities it makes the water soft – therefore leaving your car without those pesky white water spots.
Grocery Stores

Your local grocery store most likely uses a reverse osmosis water system. Why? If you want your fruits and vegetables to have a longer shelf life, you don’t want to be washing them with tap water. The chemicals used in the plant to treat the water as well as the impurities and heavy metals that find their way in along the way wreak havoc on organic material. So, when you take a bite of that fresh butter lettuce or carrot in your salad, reverse osmosis has played a role in keeping it fresh to your table.
