General Product Information

Relax and enjoy the benefits of great tasting water supplied by a reverse osmosis drinking water system. Remember that good quality water is important to maintaining a healthy lifestyle. You can also feel good about the money you have saved by installing your own drinking water system instead of dealing with the expense and hassle of bottled water delivery.

Although this product is described as a 'Drinking Water System', the purified water produced by the reverse osmosis (RO) process can be used for many purposes around the home.

  • Drinking Water - keep container of RO water in the fridge to be able to enjoy the clean, fresh taste. Alternatively, take it directly from the tap.
  • Ice Cubes - use RO water to fill ice cube trays. Ice cubes made from RO water are typically clearer and better tasting than ice made from plain tap water.
  • Automatic Ice Makers - a water line from the RO system can be plumbed to refrigerators with automatic icemakers. Additional accessories required to complete this connection are not included. Please consult the refrigerator's owner's manual on this installation.
  • Kettles & Coffee Makers - plain tap water eventually causes films and scale in these devices that is difficult to clean. RO water is very low in dissolved minerals content, greatly reducing the chance of scale buildup.
  • Cooking - use RO water for boiling pasta, rice or any other recipe that calls for water in the instructions.
  • Washing Fresh Fruit & Vegetables - prevent tap water minerals from being deposited onto food to maintain freshness.
  • Family Pets - allow your dog or cat to enjoy the same purified water you do.
  • Irons, Steamers & Humidifiers - prevent mineral buildup in household appliances that use water and eventually build up with scale when using plain tap water.
The AWP RO-4S is a 4 stage RO system with NSF 42 component filter housings. This system is rated to produce 50 gallons per day (GPD) of product water, provided that the water going into the RO system meets the outlined water quality parameters.

The RO-4S comes with a sediment pre-filter, a carbon pre-filter, a 50 GPD TFC filmtec membrane, with a 98% rejection rating, and a carbon post-filter. This system can be used on chlorinated or non-chlorinated water as it does have a carbon pre-filter which can remove chlorine concentrations that will be present in municipal water.

Product Specifications
 
Model Number RO-4S
Membrane Production Rate (1) 50 US GPD (US gallons per day)
Rejection 98 %
Storage Tank Capacity 4.0 US Gallons

Notes: The performance of a reverse osmosis membrane is highly dependent upon pressure, temperature and TDS. The actual volume of product water and rejection percentage will vary with differences from the test conditions that membrane ratings are based upon. Nominal product water ratings are based on the following conditions: Supply TDS of 250 ppm softened tap water, 60 psi (4 bar), 77° F (25° C), pH 8, and 15 % recovery with outlet to atmosphere.

These drinking water systems are not intended to be used for the treatment of water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality.

Functional Description
Feed water enters the 5-micron pre-filter which filters out suspended particles such as dirt or sediment. The filtered water then enters the pre-carbon filter which contains granular activated carbon and removes any chlorine from the water.
The water then enters the reverse osmosis membrane. The membrane will only allow permeate (product water) to pass through. The brine (waste water) goes to the drain.
Permeate then flows through a hydraulic shut-off valve to the storage tank. When the tank fills and the tank pressure reaches 2/3 of the inlet feed water pressure, the shut-off valve closes which turns the system off.
When water is drawn from the faucet, permeate flows from the storage tank through the post carbon filter. This filter contains granulated activated carbon, removing any taste and odor that has accumulated while stored in the tank. When the tank empties, the shut-off valve opens, turning the unit on.
