How does the Waterite Vectapure™ Residential Reverse Osmosis System differ from an ordinary water filter?
Ordinary water filters use a screen to separate only particles of dirt and sediment from the raw water source. Reverse osmosis employs a semi-permeable membrane that removes not only particles but also a very high percentage of dissolved contaminants, molecule by molecule, from your raw tap water. Your system will deliver pure, bottled water quality water to a faucet conveniently located at your kitchen sink or any other designated area. Q: What is the membrane and how does it work? The membrane element consists of several thin layers or sheets of film that are bonded together and rolled in a spiral configuration around a plastic tube. As the raw water passes across the surface of the membrane, only pure water molecules are allowed to pass through and collect in the tube, while all other mineral and contaminant molecules are rejected and washed from the surface of the membrane to the drain.
