We've included a list of FAQs for a wide variety of categories.
Are countertop water filters as effective as other filtration systems?
Countertop filtration systems are as equally effective at filtration as floor models, and levels of filtration vary in the same way. Models with 2-stage filtration reduce sediment, rust, chlorine, odors, bad tastes, pollutants, and more. Models featuring 3- and 4-stage systems with reverse osmosis remove dissolved solids, heavy metals, and other contaminants, including bacteria and viruses
How should I clean my countertop water dispenser?
Be sure to unplug your unit before cleaning. Wipe the exterior with a soft cloth and mild soap, paying special attention to frequently touched areas like the dispenser. Clean the reservoir with a vinegar, citric acid, or bleach solution every 3-4 months, and rinse thoroughly before use. Always follow your model’s care instructions to prevent damage.
Does a countertop RO system create wastewater?
All reverse osmosis systems produce wastewater as part of the filtration process. This water, known as brine or concentrate, carries away the contaminants removed during filtration. The ratio of filtered water to wastewater varies by model, but Brio RO systems are designed to minimize waste while maximizing efficiency. Be sure to check the product specifications to understand the pure-to-drain ratio for your system.
