The On The Go RO system also includes a stainless steel suction pick up screen for use on natual water sources. You can draw water from almost any source, rivers, streams, lakes, etc.
Since natural water sources typically include significant contaminants, if you intend to use the system regularly on this type water source, we recommend you add onto our system an external 5 micron filter. This filter will remove a significant amout of the larger contaminants, and extend the life of the internal Sediment+CTO filter, saving you money since basic 5 micron filters are often just a few dollars each.
We have also built in special features to extend the RO membranes useful life when used with more contaminated water sources:
Our Flow-thru valve when opened allows additional membrane cleaning water flow.
Our Flush/purge valve when opened allows full pressure & volume water flow across the dirty side of the RO membrane, blasting out contaminants that have collected.
