Refresh your water supply with Reverse Osmosis

Refresh your water supply with Reverse Osmosis

Humans are born to drink water.

At birth, our bodies are 75 percent H20! At every age, water transports nutrients and oxygen to cells throughout the body, regulates temperature, protects organs and tissues, and keeps organ systems operating smoothly.

Replenishing our personal water supply is an act of constant care, so water must be convenient and clean. Untreated or undertreated water can expose us to contaminants that accumulate in our bodies over time, such as lead, PFAS, volatile organic compounds, arsenic, bacteria, and viruses.

Drink well, live well.

The best water is better for you: contaminant-free, accessible, and refreshing.

Reverse Osmosis systems are an increasingly popular and powerful way to treat your water (and your body). A Reverse Osmosis (RO) system combines pressure and processing to treat water at any point-of-use in the home: a bathroom or kitchen sink, refrigerator icemaker, or water dispenser.

  • Under pressure - RO forces water through a semi-permeable membrane (or filter) before it leaves your faucet or tap. Filtered water is separated into two streams, each moving in a different direction.

  • Permeate - Splashes down into your sink as treated drinking water. Enjoy!

  • Reject water - Flushes into your sewer system. Goodbye contaminants!

Martens Plumbing & Heating technicians and plumbers treat your water with the utmost seriousness and expertise. We service all makes and models of water systems and water heaters. These include new and long-running water heaters/RO systems. Over time, most RO systems will cost less than a monthly supply of bottled water. All RO systems minimize plastic waste, which is excellent for the environment.
