Assessing Your Household Water Usage
The initial step in selecting an appropriately sized reverse osmosis system involves understanding your household’s daily water consumption. Consider the number of residents and their typical water use for drinking, cooking, and other household needs. For instance:
- Average daily water intake per person for drinking and food preparation: roughly 3-4 gallons
- For a family of four: around 12-16 gallons per day

Evaluating Water Quality and Contaminant Levels
Understanding the quality of your source water is essential for choosing the appropriate system size and capabilities.
