The Most Effective Way to Remove Contaminants From Your Drinking Water
Improve Your Drinking Water With A Reverse Osmosis and Alkaline Drinking Water System from American Aqua
Get Your QuoteWith a American Aqua RO system you get:
- Three or four-stage water filtration.
- Semi-permeable membranes to reject solids.
- Specially formulated pre-and post-filters to reduce contaminants, eliminate odors, and improve taste.
- Automatic shut-off to conserve water.
- Optional electronic monitor to alert you when filters need changing.
- Space-saving designs.
- Bottle-quality water at your tap.
Here is how a Reverse Osmosis Drinking Water Purifier works:
- Household water is directed through a pre-filter for filtration to remove sediment, chlorine taste, and odor, and particulate matter.
- The water is then forced, by pressure, through a semi-permeable membrane where a high percentage of the dissolved solids and other contaminants are rejected and flushed to the drain.
- The final polishing of the water is accomplished by an activated carbon absorption block filter removing tastes and odors. The water passes through this final filtering process immediately before going to the faucet whether it comes directly from the unit or from the storage tank.
- The automatic shut-off control shuts down the system when the storage tank is filled and water is not being drawn. This “demand production” feature conserves water by eliminating the constant running to the drain found in some units. The control also depressurizes the membrane when not in service extending the membrane life and reducing the need for maintenance of your reverse osmosis water purifier.
American Aqua offers a broad range of reverse osmosis purification systems. These products reduce substances such as chlorine taste, sediment, nitrates, lead, cysts, and detergents.

How does water become contaminated?
Industrial dumping, farming, pollution, and water plant pipe deterioration have taken a toll on local water systems.
Poor Home Drinking Water
Many households live with poor drinking water from their municipal or well sources.
Hard Water
A whopping 85% of Americans live in an area with hard water. Hard water is water that has accumulated “hard” minerals that can affect a home’s water quality.
Environmental Crisis
Many people turn to bottled water as a solution, contributing significantly to plastic pollution.

Bottled Water Facts
- 38 million plastic bottles go to the dump every year in America
- It takes plastic bottles 700 years to begin composting.
- The price you pay for bottled water is 90% due to the bottle itself.
- To produce a billion plastic bottles, 24 million gallons of oil are needed.
- Not to mention bottling and shipping water are not energy efficient methods either to supply your water.
- What’s the second most popular beverage in the US? You got it.
Ratings and Certifications
- Tested and Certified to NSF/ANSI Standard 58 by NSF International.
- Rated at 50 psi, 77F, 750 ppm/TDS, product to storage tank.
- Product water produced, amount of waste water and percent rejection will vary with changes in pressure, temperature and total dissolved solids.
- Tested by Spectrum Labs, Inc. a state certified testing laboratory.
What About Alkaline Water?
Many people have heard the growing buzz around the potential health benefits of drinking alkaline water. After going through the alkaline filter, minerals are placed back into the water, right from the tap!
Why Are People Drinking Alkaline Water?
Everything you eat and drink has a pH level of O (very acidic) to 14 (high alkalinity). Typical drinking water usually has a pH of 7. Alkaline water typically has a pH between 7.5 and 9, our filter has reached as high as 10. Enthusiasts of consuming alkaline food and beverages advocate for added minerals.
According to the Mayo Clinic, “Alkaline water has a higher pH level than that of plain tap water. So proponents say that it can neutralize acid in your bloodstream. Some say that alkaline water can help prevent diseases, such as cancer and heart disease.”
How Does An Alkaline System Work?
Water is directed through the post-filter where it dissolves minerals to add flavor and raise pH. Chlorine taste odor and sediment are reduced, and the only thing left behind is pure, great-tasting water and minerals that help improve the taste of filtered water.
