BWT MO6500: High-Capacity Reverse Osmosis System

Question 1

Question:

What's cheaper a reverse osmosis filter or bottled water?

Answer

Over time, a reverse osmosis filter proves to be more economical compared to purchasing bottled water, particularly for heavy users. While the upfront cost of a reverse osmosis system might seem steep, it quickly pays off. For instance, if you use 10 liters of water daily for drinking and cooking, that totals 3,650 liters annually. This amount would equate to approximately 2,433 one-and-a-half-liter bottles, costing over 1,000 euros per year. By investing in a reverse osmosis filter for 450 euros, you save 550 euros in the first year alone and over 800 euros annually thereafter. Additionally, you'll eliminate the hassle of carrying water packs from the store and reduce plastic waste by avoiding 2,433 plastic bottles.

Question 2

Question:

How often do I need to change the cartridges (filter elements) in my reverse osmosis filter?

Answer

The filter elements in a reverse osmosis system are divided into two categories:

Standard Filter Cartridges (excluding the reverse osmosis membrane):

These cartridges need to be replaced annually if the daily water consumption is around 5 liters. The cost for a set of these cartridges ranges from 80 to 110 euros.

Reverse Osmosis Membrane:

The membrane cartridge requires replacement every two years. The cost for this cartridge is between 60 and 80 euros.

Question 3

Question:

What is the difference between a reverse osmosis filter and a conventional filter?

Answer

A reverse osmosis filter differs from a conventional filter in that it uses a semi-permeable membrane to remove finer particles and impurities from water. This process allows only water molecules to pass through, effectively filtering out minerals, salts, organic contaminants, bacteria, viruses, and other dissolved substances. In contrast, conventional filters typically work by passing water through a filter media that captures larger particles and sediments but may not effectively remove the smaller dissolved contaminants that a reverse osmosis system can.

Question 4

Question:

How to improve the taste of water after reverse osmosis?

Answer

There are several ways to improve the taste of your water after your reverse osmosis filter:

Use a remineralization cartridge: the reverse osmosis system we offer comes with a remineralization cartridge that adds minerals back into the water.
Add flavor: you can add pieces of fruit, herbs or spices to your water to give it a natural flavor.
Use a carbon post filter: the reverse osmosis system we offer comes with a carbon post filter that helps remove any remaining unpleasant tastes or odors from the water.
Chill your water: chilling your water can help improve its flavor and make it more refreshing.
Drink water from glassware.

Question 5

Question:

Do I need to boil the water after the reverse osmosis filter?

Answer

Boiling water after it has been filtered through a reverse osmosis system is usually unnecessary because the reverse osmosis process is quite effective at removing harmful pathogens, bacteria, viruses and other impurities from the water.

Question 6
