CAN A REVERSE OSMOSIS SYSTEM TREAT ALL THE WATER IN MY HOME?
Yes it could, but, reverse osmosis is a slow process! Most household RO systems produce up to about 35 gallons of purified water per day. A very large system would be required to treat all the water required for daily household uses such as washing clothes, doing dishes, and showering. The complexity and expense of such a system typically limits its use to commercial applications. Also, the high quality of RO water is not necessary for most household chores. Softened water is often better suited to these uses.
