Reverse Osmosis: This technology removes many inorganic contaminants from drinking water supplies. The removal effectiveness depends on the contaminant and its concentration, the Reverse Osmosis membrane used, the water pressure (psi) and way of RO installation. Purchase and Operating Costs need to be considered when comparing competitive RO and other Drinking Water Purification systems, and when making purchase or rental decisions.

Ultra Violet: UV Disinfection technology was mainly used for applications in wastewater treatment, however it’s now being used in drinking water and Well Water treatment. Once they thought that Ultra Violet disinfection was more effective for bacteria and viruses, which have more exposed genetic material, than for larger pathogens which have outer coatings or that form cyst states that shield their DNA from the UV light. However, it was recently discovered that ultraviolet radiation can be somewhat effective for treating the microorganism Cryptosporidium.

Water Distillers: Water Distillation involves heating the water to boiling point and condensing the steam. Pollutants with a boiling point near that of water is difficult to remove, however, distilled water is generally of top quality. This method does requires a large amount of energy. Some people will also complain that the distilled water tastes flat (this is due to less dissolved oxygen). Many units use post-carbon filtration to enhance it’s taste.
