Reverse Osmosis Drinking Water Systems
Typical reverse osmosis units reject 96 to 98% of lead and more than 90% of sodium salts by pressing water through a semipermeable membrane at the molecular level. Central Florida Water Management installs reverse osmosis drinking water systems in Pinellas County, Florida, placing PuROMax units under kitchen sinks with a dedicated faucet, storage tank, and optional refrigerator or ice maker connection. We size prefilters for local chloramine, so the membrane stays protected and every glass tastes crisp, clean, and consistent.

BOTTLED WATER QUALITY WITHOUT THE BOTTLES.

Cases of bottled water are expensive, heavy to carry, and surprisingly inconsistent in quality. Many families buy them because the tap tastes off, then end up storing plastic in the garage and hauling it home every week. A reverse osmosis system replaces that routine with purified water available whenever you turn the faucet handle.

The cost per gallon drops to pennies, and the water comes from your own kitchen. Coffee, tea, soups, and baby formula all start with cleaner water every single day.

REVERSE OSMOSIS DRINKING WATER SYSTEMS

PURE DRINKING WATER FOR THE RECIPES, ICE, AND COFFEE YOU MAKE EVERY DAY.

Coffee and tea are about 99% water, so they can only taste as good as the water used to brew them. Reverse osmosis removes dissolved minerals, salts, and many contaminants that cloud flavor and leave residue in kettles. Ice comes out clearer, pasta water stops leaving white rings, and pets and plants benefit too. We install the system neatly under your sink, preserving cabinet space wherever we possibly can.

DRINKING WATER SYSTEMS SUITED TO CHLORAMINATED SUPPLIES.

Chlorine and chloramine can damage thin-film membranes, so the carbon prefilter in front of the membrane matters as much as the membrane itself. We pick prefilters that hold up to local disinfectant levels and set replacement schedules around your household use. That attention protects your investment and keeps rejection rates high long after installation day passes. It also prevents the bitter, chemical taste a spent prefilter lets through.

30+ YEARS OF FILLING GLASSES ACROSS TAMPA BAY.

We have installed and serviced reverse osmosis systems throughout our 30+ years in water treatment, and the lesson is consistent: families drink more water when it tastes great. Our technicians take time to explain how the system works, what each filter does, and when it needs attention. As a veteran-owned, family-owned company, we keep our recommendations honest and our service local. Ready to taste the difference in your own kitchen?

WHAT A REVERSE OSMOSIS SYSTEM DELIVERS

Trash can, hanging tag, and wrench icon indicating maintenance or recycling.
Crisp, Clean Taste
Removing dissolved salts and minerals eliminates the flat or metallic notes that make tap water unappealing. Most people notice the difference with the first glass, and many stop buying bottled water within the first week.

Broad Contaminant Reduction
Typical membranes reject 94 to 96% of arsenic, 92 to 95% of nitrate, and more than 99% of bacteria. That broad reduction gives families confidence in the water they drink and use for cooking at home every day.

Lower Sodium in Softened Homes
Water softeners add a small amount of sodium during regeneration. Reverse osmosis at the kitchen sink removes most of it, so you enjoy soft water throughout the house while drinking water stays low in sodium.

Savings Over Bottled Water
Once installed, purified water costs pennies per gallon compared with store-bought cases. Families who drink plenty of water, brew coffee daily, or cook often recover the expense of their system faster than they expect.

Clearer Ice Cubes
Minerals trapped in freezing water create cloudy cubes with a chalky aftertaste. Connecting your ice maker to reverse osmosis produces clearer ice that melts cleanly into drinks without leaving residue at the bottom of the glass.

Less Plastic Waste
Eliminating bottled water keeps hundreds of plastic bottles out of your recycling bin every year. Refillable glasses and water bottles become the easy choice when great-tasting water flows directly from your own kitchen faucet.

our services

OUR REVERSE OSMOSIS WORK

From the first installation to routine filter changes, we handle every part of owning a drinking water system. These are the reverse osmosis services homeowners request most often from our team.
Template premium 99
UNDER SINK

PuROMax System Installation


We install PuROMax reverse osmosis units beneath kitchen sinks, mounting the filter housings, membrane, and storage tank securely. A dedicated drinking water faucet goes on the countertop or sink deck, matched to your existing fixtures when possible.
Template premium 99
APPLIANCE LINES

Refrigerator and Ice Maker Connections


Running purified water to your refrigerator dispenser and ice maker extends the benefits beyond the faucet. We route tubing safely through cabinets and walls and test each connection carefully for leaks before finishing the job.

FILTER CHANGES

Prefilter and Postfilter Replacement


Sediment and carbon prefilters protect the membrane, while the postfilter polishes taste. We replace them on a schedule matched to your water quality and usage, keeping the system performing like new for many years.
Template premium 99
MEMBRANE CARE

Membrane Replacement


Membranes gradually lose rejection capacity over time. We test output quality, replace worn membranes, sanitize the housings, and restore your system's purification performance without the expense of replacing the entire unit or its storage tank.
Template premium 99
SYSTEM REPAIR

Reverse Osmosis Repair


Slow production, constant draining sounds, leaks, or a faucet that sputters all point to fixable problems. We diagnose valves, tanks, and tubing on any brand of system and repair the issue rather than pushing replacement first.
Template premium 99
SYSTEM UPGRADES

Older System Replacement


Systems older than 10 years often lack efficient components or have cracked housings. We remove the outdated unit, install a modern PuROMax system, and reuse sound plumbing connections to keep the changeover quick and tidy.

Our home builder installed our first system but it wasn’t working well, so we replaced that with a new water conditioner system and added reverse osmosis. What a difference! The water tastes great, my coffee is better, and my “sensitive” skin feels soft after a shower. Also glad to replace plastic water bottles with the reusable variety.

Huge thanks to Jim and Dave for the outstanding service! They recently installed a water softener and Reverse Osmosis system at my home, and the entire process was flawless. The system is performing wonderfully, and it’s clear that Jim and Dave are true professionals who work in perfect harmony. I highly recommend their top-notch work!"

I found that the company’s personnel to be professional and courteous. My install was done on time and I couldn’t be happier with both the equipment and service. Our water has never tasted better!! Plus the cost was more than 30% lower than the 2 other companies that I got an estimate from. Go with Central Florida Water Management and they will do a great job at a fair price.

Common questions

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS.

Reverse osmosis systems are simple to live with once installed. These answers address common questions about how they work, what they remove, and what ongoing care looks like.

    How does reverse osmosis work?

    Household water pressure pushes tap water against a semipermeable membrane that lets water molecules pass while holding back dissolved salts and many contaminants. Rejected impurities are rinsed down the drain, and purified water collects in a storage tank.

    Does reverse osmosis remove fluoride?

    Yes. Typical reverse osmosis membranes reject roughly 93 to 95% of fluoride. Families who prefer to keep fluoride for dental reasons can discuss that with their dentist before deciding on a drinking water system.

    How often do reverse osmosis filters need changing?

    Prefilters and postfilters usually need replacing every 6 to 12 months, while membranes commonly last 2 to 3 years. Water quality and household usage determine the exact schedule for each home and filter stage.

    Why is my reverse osmosis faucet running slowly?

    Slow flow usually means clogged prefilters, a worn membrane, or low air pressure in the storage tank. Replacing filters often restores flow quickly, though tank pressure and membrane condition should be checked at the same visit.

    Does reverse osmosis waste water?

    Some water rinses impurities from the membrane and goes down the drain. That rinse keeps the membrane clean and working, and modern systems with automatic shutoff valves stop production once the storage tank fills completely.

    Can Central Florida Water Management add reverse osmosis to a softened home?

    Absolutely. Central Florida Water Management regularly installs reverse osmosis alongside softeners in Pinellas County, Florida. Softened water actually helps protect the membrane from scale, while the system removes most of the added sodium from drinking water.

    Will reverse osmosis remove minerals my body needs?

    Reverse osmosis removes dissolved minerals, but most dietary minerals come from food rather than drinking water. A balanced diet supplies calcium and magnesium, so purified water fits easily into a healthy routine for most households.

    Why trust Central Florida Water Management with my drinking water?

    Central Florida Water Management's veteran-owned, family-owned team in Pinellas County, Florida tests your water for free, recommends the right system for your household, and installs it neatly. We also handle filter changes and membrane service on every make and model.

    HOW WE WORK

    FROM TAP WATER TO PURE WATER, HERE IS HOW.

    STEP 01

    WE CHECK YOUR WATER
    A free test measures total dissolved solids, chlorine, hardness, and other factors that affect membrane life. Those numbers guide prefilter choices and show you how much improvement purified drinking water will bring to your kitchen.

    STEP 02

    WE PLAN THE LAYOUT
    We look under your sink to plan space for filter housings and the storage tank. If you want refrigerator or ice maker connections, we map the tubing route before any holes are drilled.

    STEP 03

    WE MOUNT THE SYSTEM
    Filter housings and the membrane mount securely inside the cabinet, and the storage tank sits where it stays accessible. Every component is positioned for easy future filter changes without emptying your cabinet of supplies.

    STEP 04

    WE INSTALL THE FAUCET
    A dedicated drinking water faucet is installed on the sink or countertop. We connect the drain saddle and supply valve, then route tubing neatly so nothing interferes with your garbage disposal or storage.

    STEP 05

    WE FLUSH THE MEMBRANE
    New membranes and carbon filters need flushing before the water is ready to drink. We fill and drain the tank, check pressure, and confirm the automatic shutoff valve is working correctly before handing it over.

    STEP 06

    WE TEST THE OUTPUT
    A final dissolved solids reading compares purified water with your tap water, so you can see the improvement in numbers. We explain filter change timing and leave you with clear guidance for routine care.
