Overview of Features
Although the APEC Water Systems ROES-PH75 RO Water Filtration System may look very intimidating when it comes to installation and maintenance, it’s actually quite simple. There might be quite a few components to deal with, but when it comes down to it, all you need to do is plug it into a power source, insert all the filters into the proper housings, connect the water, and you are good to go.
That said, there is a reverse osmosis faucet included, which was designed to work in conjunction with this system. If you are not a plumber or a handy person in general, you may need a bit of help with installation. All of that said, the filter cartridges are very long-lasting and straightforward to replace when needed. All included components do not contain lead and are all food-grade for safety.
In terms of filtration types and capacity, the APEC Water Systems ROES-PH75 RO Water Filtration System is one of the best systems out there, hands down. It comes with six stages of filtration that leave your water clean, clear, and odor-free. Let’s take a quick look at the six stages and what they can do.
- Stage one is a high-capacity polypropylene sediment filter that removes dirt, dust, rust, and other particles from the water; it also helps improve the lifespan of the rest of the system
- Stages two and three consist of a premium activated carbon block that will remove chlorine, tastes, odors, cloudiness, and colors. It can also remove volatile organic compounds
- Stage four features high rejection TFC reverse osmosis that can remove 99% of TDS or total dissolved solids, as well as toxins such as arsenic, lead, fluoride, chromium, radium, and more
- The fifth stage consists of a coconut shell refining carbon filter for TCR or total contaminant removal (helps to remove residual waste from the tank)
- The sixth stage consists of a PH+ alkaline re-mineralizing calcium filter to help add beneficial minerals to the water
The APEC Water Systems ROES-PH75 RO Water Filtration System adds beneficial minerals to the water; you get a healthy remineralization process. Keep in mind that about 85 psi is nearly as much pressure as you get, and being realistic, this unit should be able to handle about 75 gallons of water per day.
