WESTON · UNDER-SINK RO

Under-Sink Reverse Osmosis in Weston

An under-sink reverse osmosis system gives your Weston kitchen a dedicated faucet of filtered drinking water. Weston's water comes from the City of Sunrise with a chloramine residual, so the RO's carbon pre-filters need to be up to that job before the membrane reduces dissolved solids. Living Water's alkaline RO then adds minerals back for taste. It is the most common drinking water upgrade for Weston homes and townhomes.

Why RO works well with Weston water

Weston's water is membrane-softened at Sunrise's Sawgrass plant and disinfected with chloramines, listed at a highest annual average of 3.2 ppm in the 2025 report. That means your kitchen RO is not fighting heavy hardness. Its two main jobs are dealing with the chloramine before it reaches the membrane, and polishing what is left after the water has traveled through city mains and your home's pipes.

Pre-filters matter more with chloramine

RO membranes are sensitive to chlorine-based disinfectants, and chloramine is harder for ordinary carbon to remove than free chlorine. A well-designed system for Weston uses carbon stages chosen for chloramine and changed on schedule. If you also have a whole-home chloramine filter, the RO pre-filters see less load.

What Living Water's alkaline RO includes

  • Sediment and carbon pre-filtration.
  • A reverse osmosis membrane.
  • An alkaline stage that adds minerals back after the membrane, for taste.
  • A dedicated faucet at the sink.

Product details: compact alkaline RO. For any contaminant reduction, check the exact model's NSF/ANSI 58 listing. Compare styles in alkaline vs. standard RO.

Before install: a quick kitchen check

  • Cabinet space for the unit and any tank, alongside disposals and pull-out trash bins common in newer Weston kitchens.
  • Faucet location on the sink deck or countertop; stone countertops may need drilling.
  • Drain connection for the RO's reject water.
  • Fridge line, if you want RO water for ice and the dispenser.
  • Water pressure, which affects how fast the system produces water.

Upkeep

Pre-filters and post-filters are changed on a schedule, the membrane less often, and the alkaline cartridge on its own interval. Ask for the full schedule in writing. See RO maintenance and operating costs.

RO for home offices and gyms

If you run a home office or a small home gym, a second compact RO at a wet bar or utility sink is sometimes simpler than carrying water across the house. Living Water's under-sink systems are designed for homes, offices, apartments and gyms, so the same unit fits those spaces. The same checks apply: cabinet room, a drain connection and enough pressure.

Common questions

Does RO remove chloramine?

The carbon stages in an RO system handle the disinfectant before the membrane. Choose carbon rated for chloramine and change it on schedule.

Can RO water feed my fridge?

Often yes, with an extra line. Jorge checks the route and pressure first.

Why alkaline?

RO removes most minerals; the alkaline stage adds some back for taste. It is a taste preference, not a health claim.

Will it fit in a Weston townhome?

Usually. Compact units fit under most kitchen sinks.

What does it cost?

It depends on the model and installation. Jorge gives you an itemized quote after the free test.

How much water does RO send to the drain?

It depends on the model and your water pressure. Ask for the ratio when comparing systems; it affects your water bill slightly.
