"RO" means Reverse Osmosis. What is a reverse-osmosis water filter, you ask? A complete reverse-osmosis filter system is an incredible obstacle course for contaminants in your tap water. RO units force water through coarse filters that strain out sediments of increasingly smaller micron thicknesses and then through a cellophane-like reverse osmosis membrane that screens out the smallest pollutants. The now-clean water gets one last scrubbing from an activated carbon filter that removes any lingering chemicals picked up along the way. You simply cannot get purer water than this. These systems have uses beyond plant growing. They create pure drinking water, and are very good for aquatic and semi-aquatic pets - especially if you have troubles with your city's water around certain times of the year when they flush the lines.
Simply hook this filtration system up to your household water system and get 99.999% pure water that is cleaner than purified spring water.
