FAQs
QCRO is a very efficient and simple to use Reverse Osmosis (RO) System. Its innovative Quick Change (QC) twist and lock design makes service simple. Replace cartridges without having to shut off the water supply or to screw sumps off and on.

This is ideal for anyone, especially those on municipal water systems. It has a small profile and is easy to maintain.
Water entering any home—rural or municipal—contains a level of Total Dissolved Solids (TDS). The QCRO System will reduce TDS levels by 90 – 95%. This includes the significant reduction of contaminants such as arsenic, chromium, copper, fluoride, nitrates, sulphates, chlorides, lead, and even PFOAs & PFOSs.
Note that pre-treatment of certain water characteristics such as hardness, iron, and potability is recommended.
It is important for water to meet certain characteristics before passing through the QCRO System. It is recommended that hardness < 7 grains per gallon (gpg) and iron < 0.2 parts per million (ppm). Influent chlorine should not exceed 3.0 ppm.
To ensure filter cartridge lifespan, a water softener is strongly recommended for water > 7 gpg.
The QCRO System is intended for use on potable water supplies or disinfected water containing cysts. Do not use where water is microbiologically unsafe or with water of unknown quality. If bacterial contamination is present, a recognized method of water disinfection is required (such as UV filtration).
The QCRO System is a perfect addition to any home on well or municipal water.
If a high efficiency RO system that wastes minimal water during production and/or if you have TDS levels > 2000, we recommend the Aqua Flo HERO RO drinking water system.
Yes, the QCRO System works in homes with municipal water. Enjoy RO water on tap while knowing many of the undesirable impurities found in municipal water have been removed.
While it can be installed under the kitchen sink, most prefer it be installed in a basement or a more out-of-the-way place.
Most have a dedicated RO water spigot installed at the kitchen sink to give you RO water on-tap for drinking and cooking.
Yes, the QCRO System can be hooked up to a refrigerator or a pot filler at the stove in addition to having a spigot at the kitchen sink. Refrigerators with water dispensers and icemakers typically use a carbon filter to remove unpleasant tastes and odour. Running RO water through the refrigerator will dramatically improve the quality of its water and ice.
No more having to replace those expensive refrigerator water filters!
Note: depending upon household usage of RO water, you may want to consider the addition of a larger tank or a demand and/or booster pump to ensure adequate flow rates from all RO dispensing devices.
The QCRO System comes with a 3.0 gallon (14.36 L) stainless steel storage tank. Because the system works on pressure, about half of that volume is taken up by an internal air bladder. If you use more than 7 or 8 litres of water at a time—such as filling a 20 L jug to take to the cabin, you may want to consider adding a larger storage tank. We have 11 L and 20 L stainless steel tanks available.
