Pros and Cons of Reverse Osmosis Filtration Systems
With all the fuss surrounding the reverse osmosis filtration systems, most people assume this must be a fancy system that delivers the best water it possibly could. Some immediately want to look into it further, and others perhaps even run out to purchase one. But of the types of filtration systems available, is this really a filtration system the average homeowner should be buying? Let's see how it works and how it rates on the safety scale...
A reverse osmosis filter uses an extremely fine semi-permeable membrane inside the unit, with a drainage hose attached to the unit. The drainage hose is where the contaminated water is disposed off once it is filtered, while the 'pure' water travels through the membrane. High pressure is used to force the water through the membrane, leaving behind any impurities that are larger than a water molecule.
The advantage of the reverse osmosis system is that it will easily filter out most organic contamination, bacteria, and heavy metals...and all without raising your electricity bill, as none is used.
The cons of the system, however, are hair-raising. Not all of the contaminants are smaller than water molecules so the filtration membrane allows a few of the smaller microbes to escape thorough to your drinking tank. Keep in mind that chemicals such as herbicide and pesticide molecules are both smaller than water molecules, so most reverse osmosis filtration systems cannot, and should not work alone.
They must work in tandem with a carbon filter to keep those smaller contaminants out of your water. They are also slow, producing only around a gallon of water per hour, so the unit will also come with a storage tank, allowing it to keep working even when you aren't around to ensure you have an adequate supply.
The disturbing aspect for those that are environmentally conscious is that for every gallon of water you are purifying with a reverse osmosis filtration system, you are using up to four gallons. With water shortages a viable threat when river and lake levels drop, most do not want to waste such a valuable natural resource. It's scary to think that in making your water safe for consumption, you might be doing just that.
And last but not the least; the system's major defect is its inability to differentiate between what is good for your health and what is not. So while the pesticides can pass through into your glass of water, the minerals so essential for your body will be filtered out every time, leaving the water in an acidic form that actually harms the body tissues in the long term more than a bout of diarrhea would! In the end, it is your personal health which may cause you to choose something that does more than just give us fancy words and unsafe water, and rightly so.

Reverse Osmosis Filters Do Not Remove Chlorine
A reverse osmosis water filter is not the right choice, if you are hoping to improve the quality and taste of your tap water. The water from your tap has probably already passed through a reverse osmosis filter, but that does not mean it's completely safe or good to drink.
The reverse osmosis water filter was designed to remove salt, minerals and larger molecular particles from public drinking water. The portable devices were designed for people travelling or living in areas where public water is not available.
The reverse osmosis filter that companies are promoting for in home use is basically a sales pitch gone wrong. Most of us need to filter our tap water because of the chemicals that the water treatment facilities add to disinfect it, namely chlorine.
In addition, news reporters have let us know that some of our water contains drugs and hormones. Stuff that we do not want our kids to drink. This type of water filter will not remove chemicals or the pharmaceuticals.
One of the reasons that the treatment facilities add chlorine is to protect the membrane in the reverse osmosis filter from rotting. If it protects the membrane, then obviously chlorine and other chemicals with a similar molecular size will pass right through.
Not to mention the fact that a reverse osmosis water filter removes the trace minerals in the water that are actually good for us. That's why fancy car washes use them. The low mineral content keeps the cars from spotting and speeds the drying process.
If your water comes from a public source and you buy a reverse osmosis filter for your home, you will still need an activated carbon filter to remove the chlorine and improve the taste. The carbon filter also works to remove the drugs and chemicals that you cannot see, taste or smell.
If you have well water, you really need a micron filter to remove things like acanthamoeba and other bacteria that live in fresh water. A reverse osmosis water filter will only remove the minerals from your well water. Again, that's why the government adds chlorine to public drinking water. It's the cheapest way to kill the bacteria. It's not the best way.
In order to get the safest, best tasting drinking water, a water purifier that includes both a micron filter and a carbon filter is the right choice. You probably do not need a reverse osmosis filter, unless your drinking water comes straight from the ocean or a river.
In order to be effective, they need high pressure water coming in, but the pressure coming out is reduced. They produce waste water that can only be used to water the plants. Low pressure in the home and wasted water are just two more reasons that a reverse osmosis water filter is not the best choice for your family or the environment.
