How it works

Certified purification at the tap

Reverse osmosis is the most thorough way to purify drinking water at home. It pushes your water through a semipermeable membrane that blocks dissolved contaminants down to the molecular level — things a pitcher or fridge filter can’t touch — then delivers clean, crisp water to a dedicated faucet at your kitchen sink. It’s ideal for drinking, coffee, ice, cooking and baby formula.

Our Puronics Micromax systems are independently tested and WQA Gold Seal certified to reduce contaminants that matter to Florida homeowners: lead, arsenic, nitrate, chromium and cysts — and the flagship 8500 is also certified to reduce PFAS (PFOS and PFOA, the β€œforever chemicals”) and emerging compounds like BPA. That’s certified, third-party proof — not a marketing claim.

Reverse osmosis pairs perfectly with a whole-home softener: the softener protects your plumbing and appliances at every tap, and the RO perfects the water you actually drink. We’ll help you decide between our tank, tankless and flagship options based on your water and your kitchen.

Straight answers

Reverse osmosis FAQs

What does reverse osmosis remove?

RO reduces dissolved solids and a long list of contaminants that carbon alone can’t — depending on the system, that includes chlorine taste, lead, nitrate, cysts, arsenic, fluoride, and (on our Micromax 8500) PFAS/PFOA-PFOS and VOCs. Each system is independently certified to NSF/ANSI standards for exactly what it’s rated to reduce.

Do I need a softener too?

Not required, but recommended on hard water. A whole-home softener protects the RO membrane from scale so it lasts longer and tastes better. Many homeowners do both — softener for the house, RO for drinking.

Which reverse osmosis system is right for me?

It depends on your water and your goals — everyday value (Micromax 7000), maximum reduction including PFAS (Micromax 8500), or space-saving (tankless). Start with a free in-home water test and we’ll match it to what you actually have.

Is a “drinking water system” the same as reverse osmosis?

Yes. “Drinking water system,” “RO system” and “reverse osmosis” all describe the same under-sink setup that purifies the water at your kitchen tap. People search for it different ways, so you’ll see both names on this site — it’s one product.

Does reverse osmosis remove PFAS?
Yes β€” our Micromax 8500 is NSF/ANSI 53 certified to reduce PFOS and PFOA, the two most common PFAS β€œforever chemicals.” You can verify it in the WQA Gold Seal database.
Is reverse osmosis water better?
Yes. RO removes contaminants along with dissolved minerals, but tap water is not a meaningful source of nutrition β€” you get minerals from food. If you prefer mineral taste, we add a remineralization/alkaline stage.
How much water does reverse osmosis waste?
Older systems sent several gallons to drain per gallon produced; modern systems are far more efficient, and we can spec the most efficient setup for your home.
Reverse osmosis vs. a pitcher or fridge filter?
Pitchers and fridge filters mostly improve chlorine and taste. Certified RO reduces lead, arsenic, nitrate, chromium, cysts and (on the 8500) PFAS β€” a completely different level of protection.
Which RO is right for you?

We’ll match it to your water

Certified PFAS reduction, everyday value, or a tankless setup — we’ll help you choose.

β€œWow I can definitely feel a difference in my hair, skin, and when I wash my hands. I knew getting a water softener was a priority and I’m so glad I decided to go with Hydrology. I’m thoroughly impressed with the company and the product!”

β€œI cannot say enough amazing things about this company and system! We had three companies come out and Hydrology stood out on every level. This company is very professional, answered every question we had and even gave us time to think without β€œpressuring” us to buy! Our water is fabulous the taste and feeling it leaves on skin I am wondering how I have went so long without this system! ”

β€œWe’ve had our system now a month and absolutely love it and we can see and feel the difference immediately. My wife is a hair beautician with over 30 years of experience and definitely can tell the difference with the water which is important for hair and skin. Highly recommend this company and look forward to many years of clean, soft and healthy water!”
