the ro system can be purchased online for about $200 on amazon and can be easily assembled by anyone with basic knowledge of plumbing and tools. it comes with everything you need including the water tank, carbon filter and a tube that routes water from the faucet to the carbon filter setup in your bath tub or kitchen sink. when you buy an ro system its vital to obtain a reverse osmosis membrane that is rated to deal with your specific local water supply. in places like california, where we live, with high levels of chlorine or high salinity (such as the gulf stream waters) a 5 micron total membrane is recommended. for our purposes and for most people the 5 micron membrane would be sufficient and will be adequate.the ro system comes with two carbon filters made by RO filters inc which are rated to remove every impurity except water itself and therefore need to be replaced after about a year in most cases. in our case we are using a larger carbon filter rated for about 1.5 gallons of water but it can hold more.the purification system consists largely of piping and tubing and is ultimately made of a combination of 3 main components: the tank, the reverse osmosis membrane and the carbon filters. to purchase a reverse osmosis system from pureit you will be required to fill out an online consumer satisfaction questionnaire ( kind of like a warranty statement in some ways) and they will then send out an inspector to test your home's water quality before the system is shipped.
