Recommendations for choosing a reverse osmosis system
When choosing a filter, it is important to focus on 3 main indicators: the initial water quality, the availability of space under the sink for installation and the pressure in the water supply. The dirtier the water, the more purification steps should be in the system you choose. If you plan to install a filter in an apartment, then the best option would be an installation with 3-5 steps.For a private house, it is better to purchase six-stage models or additionally install a pre-filter that will trap large fractions of rust, sand, and metal.
Most reverse osmosis systems are installed under the sink. Don't have much space under your sink? Then take a closer look at compact direct-flow filters without storage. They occupy a minimum of space, while they have good performance.
It is better for owners of private houses and apartments with a pressure of 2-2.5 atm or less to purchase systems complete with a pump. Such installations quickly filter water and provide consistently good pressure.
Having bought a reverse osmosis filter, strictly follow the manufacturer's recommendations for maintenance / replacement of cartridges. Then the system will serve you for at least 10 years.
