• White standing iron stand - Jumbo system (20 inches), not a small kitchen filter • 3 large housings: two dark blue (closed) and one transparent so you can see the cotton filter's dirt • High-pressure pump above: The device on the left has two pumps (meaning higher productivity - usually 600-800 gallons per day), and the device on the right has one pump (400 gallons per day).
Expected filtration stages for this type:
1. Transparent filter (5 micron cotton): Removes sand, rust, and large impurities.
2. Granular Activated Carbon (GAC) filter: Removes chlorine, odors, and chemicals.
3. Carbon block filter: Finer purification for chlorine and taste.
4. RO Membrane (the silver piece on top): This is the heart of the device - removes 95% of salts, bacteria, and heavy metals.
5. Post-carbon filter (usually behind the device): Improves the final taste.
So, it's a 5-stage RO jumbo system with high production capacity.
2. Benefits:
Health:
• Removes excess salts (high TDS) which cause kidney stones, very important for Riyadh's water and areas with high salinity.
• Removes chlorine, rust, bacteria, and chemicals.
• Better and cleaner water taste for drinking, tea, and coffee.
Practical:
• Protects water heaters, washing machines, and mixers from calcification and clogging.
• Much more economical than constantly buying water bottles.
• The transparent filter allows you to know when to change it without disassembly.
The difference between the two devices in the picture:
The one on the left with two pumps is for heavy use - a large villa, a small restaurant, or a filling station, it fills a tank quickly. The one on the right is sufficient for an average home or a rest house.
If you are using it for a home, you will need a 12-20 liter tank + a small kitchen faucet, and change the cotton filters every 3-4 months, and the membrane approximately every two years depending on your consumption.
