Can a reverse osmosis system filter softened water?
I am planning to soften my water for all round benifit in the home.
I also want to purify my drinking water through a reverse osmosis system.
Can these 2 things be used together or can only 1 system be used?
If they can be used together can a reverse osmosis system purify softened water safely for drinking?
Short answer is Yes
You can use the RO to filter the softened water. A decent RO system will also have pre and post filters.
A 5 to 10 micron prefilter protects the RO filter membrane from being plugged up by particulate matter in the water. An activated carbon post filter improves taste and polishes the RO water.
Treated RO water is then stored in a small accumulator (pressure tank with a bladder in it) .
Treating water with an RO filter tacks some time and uses water in roughly a 5:1 ratio. Send 5 gallons of water to the RO to get 1 gallon of treated water the remaining water is then sent to a drain.
As a result you use RO water for drinking and maybe supplying water to an Ice maker. The unit will treat a gallon or two and store it for use once the accumulator is topped off the RO unit stops treating water. So no water is used when the RO is in standby.
