What is the difference between Filtered Water & Reverse Osmosis purified water?
The main difference between reverse osmosis and filtered water is the technique used to make water cleaner. Filtered water removes contaminants and sediments using physical barriers or chemical processes. Reverse Osmosis removes impurities by exposing water under pressure to a semipermeable membrane. This will help you in identifying that there is a big difference between filtered water and purified water.
A conventional filtration system, will give you nice tasting water, but it will not remove most of the Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) for example: SODIUM, MANGANESE, CALCIUM CARBONATE, to name a few, that are present in all municipal tap waters systems.
A lot of different forms of bacteria and viruses are so small that filters can’t remove them from the water supply. However an RO membrane can remove these along with many other impurities in your water.
