the big problem is system efficiency and $$$$. an RO system will do the job, but it waste alot of water. It highest recovery rate is 70% and that is with a good pretreatment. The product water will have a very low PH level and now you will have another concern with acidic water. That is treatable too. So how much is your budget.


If my water is not too hard and I want good drinking water that taste good, no smell, no sediments, and no chlorine and some other VOC that might be in the water, then a backwashable carbon system is my choice
