prefilters

Another disadvantage is that chlorine in municipal water supplies is corrosive to the RO filters, so activated charcoal prefilters must be changed fairly often if your tap water contains chlorine.

Our house is on an in-ground pump system, so our well water does not contain chlorine, which extends the life of the charcoal prefilters.

Raw water conditioned by prefilters and roughing filters will usually meet slow sand filter requirements.

The treatment plants, monitored for about half a year, revealed a good performance of the prefilters and enabled slow sand filter runs of several months [34].

However, biochemical reactions might also occur in the prefilters, especially if the raw water contains high organic loads.
