A reverse osmosis faucet is faucet that is specifically designed to be used along with a reverse osmosis water treatment system, sometimes called an RO system. Reverse osmosis faucets are used in rooms where you want access to filtered water, like the kitchen, where they channel the filtered water from the water filtration system to your glass. They can be used with a whole house reverse osmosis system or, more commonly with an under sink reverse osmosis filtration system.
A reverse osmosis system consists of several parts that work together to produce clean, purified water. The process is sometimes called “ultra filtration.” First, unfiltered water is passed through a pre-filter. The pre-filter prolongs the life of the reverse osmosis filter, known as the reverse osmosis membrane, by removing larger particles before they come into contact with it.
Next, the water is moved to the actual reverse osmosis membrane, where pressure is applied so that the water will pass through it. This membrane allows only the
