Which filter system will filtrate better water the waterchef u9000 or Reverse Osmosis Water Filter System???

Well I had the reverse osmosis water filter system for years and I decided to try out the waterchef u9000. Well the taste of water is definitely different between the 2. I prefer the reverse osmosis taste, this is in addition to a whole house water filtration system, since we live in an area where they use well water/hard water.

I got this filter system specifically because I did not want to go the RO route. Too many unreliability problems with that system. My wife and I think this filter works great, and the water has never tasted better. The fittings are top quality so I'm not too worried about leakage. And this was incredibly easy to install and get working. Just my opinion. Good luck with your choice.

RO systems may be able to remove the flouride from water whereas the Waterchef 9000, which is no an RO system, is not designed to do. Other than flouride, the waterchef 9000 is very good with filtering the water. It is certified by the NSF. We are very happy with our model and chose not to do RO because it lowers the PH of the water.

I think it doesn't. My filtration system has the reverse osmosis system embedded in the system so it doesn't need it. I've had this faucet for a long time now and it is excellent. Just in case. Hope this helps!!!!

Not sure I bought this for my sister's above ground pool and I don't know what kind of filter system they have.

I have a water filter that uses a reverse - osmosis filtering system. To the best of my knowledge it is a precess which removes absolutely everything out of the water except the water itself. It is purified, free of all chemicals, bacteria, viruses and any other kind of contamination that can be found in water. I use it because I have it conveniently located under my sink. I guess if that were not the case I would have to buy it in bottles. I love my mop and I would consider it worth the trouble to keep it running smoothly.

Hi, These 2 units use the same filter, and they are not listed on the Multipure web site. They use the most common filter. The countertop unit on the Multipure site is plastic now not stainless. They must be older models, but I would prefer the stainless over plastic. The filters will always be available, and if you get on the auto ship program from Multipure, you can save $$. Which ever one fits your fancy. They are sold by 2 different companies and neither has free shipping. Definitely buy one. You will be doing yourself and whoever else drinks the water a huge favor. Sorry about the delay. I was caught up in the flooding in Colorado. I was not directly affected, but friends were.

ONLY filter system that gets rid of viruses and bacteria are reverse osmosis systems and one other but i forget the name. This filters just sediment. Amazon has some really affordable reverse osmosis systems. ispring is a popular one. I have yet to get around to buy one for myself but it is on my list of ones. MAKE sure you boil the water to be safe. You maybe find with not doing it but is it really worth it?This filter is only 5nm, which is nothing when you look at the size of viruses. there are some cool interactive websites that shows the sizes of planets people Bactria viruses and plank (smaller than atoms) ONLY filter system that gets rid of viruses and bacteria are reverse osmosis systems and one other but i forget the name.

Yes. That is what I use. I love this product. I use to have a Reverse Osmosis system but it wastes way too much water. The water from this tastes great. If you want you can also put it on an electric water cooler but I chose not to.

I believe it is a 5 micron filter. An RBC (red blood corpuscle) diameter is 7 microns (to give a size comparison). You may be able to find filters at amazon that filter more finely. I think 5u is probably sufficient (it's not as efficient as a reverse osmosis unit, but is much cheaper and easier to install); the water tastes pretty good. If you're worried about things like viruses, then look elsewhere.

The manufacturer of the reverse osmosis unit most likely recommends it. Check the paperwork that came with the original unit.

I really don't know. The filters look similar but I would just buy the one that the Aquavie system uses.

Not sure, but we have reverse osmosis system and it works fine. It's a really nice faucet, with a single water line.

If it's like mine (and it looks like it is), this is compatible with MOST water filter systems, quite easily. That includes most RO (reverse osmosis) systems. I called the company before ordering and asked them, and would suggest you call this company too, to make sure.

You can buy the filters for the big blue system on the website of ispring watersystems. They let you sort by big blue.

The membrane cartridge looks the same as does the entire reverse osmosis unit, but I really don't know if there are differences or not. You might want to take an old cartridge to Lowes or Home Depot and compare it with the Whirlpool units they sell.

Hi Kenny: For fluoride reduction we recommend a reverse osmosis system. Thank You, WaterFiltersOnline
