How Much Does A Well Water Whole House Reverse Osmosis System Cost?

 

Key Factors Influencing Cost

  1. Water Chemistry: The complexity of your water’s composition affects the system needed. High Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) and specific contaminants require more sophisticated and thus more expensive systems.

  2. Pretreatment Needs: Well water often contains impurities that necessitate additional pretreatment, adding to the cost.

  3. System Efficiency: Efficient RO systems reduce water waste. Most traditional systems waste up to 5 gallons for every gallon of filtered water, whereas high-efficiency systems like RainDance’s can achieve recovery rates of 50% to 70%, significantly reducing waste.

  4. Materials and Components: Systems with stainless steel frames and high-quality membranes and control boards tend to be pricier but offer better durability and performance compared to cheaper alternatives with aluminum frames.

  5. Custom Design: Tailoring the system to your specific water needs, based on thorough water analysis, ensures optimal performance and efficiency. Customized systems are often more expensive but offer better long-term value.

Importance of Water Testing

  • Initial Testing: Before purchasing, it’s crucial to test your water to identify contaminants and their concentrations. This ensures that the system you choose will be effective.

  • Customized Solutions: RainDance offers customized solutions based on detailed water analysis, which can be critical for dealing with high levels of specific contaminants like chromium-6, arsenic, or sulfates.

Performance Metrics

  • Recovery Rate: Look for systems with higher recovery rates (50%-70%) to minimize water waste. Lower recovery rates (33%) indicate more wasteful systems.

  • TDS Reduction: Systems should be able to significantly reduce TDS levels. For instance, RainDance has successfully treated well water with TDS ranging from 2,200 ppm to 14,714 ppm, reducing it to very low levels.

  • We specialize in high recovery & high rejection home reverse osmosis systems for TDS (salty water) removal from brackish well water. Our most recent whole house RO projects include: Nebraska Well Water TDS 14,714ppm, after our RO System 188ppm - Montana Well Water TDS 5,866ppm, after our RO system 79ppm - California Well Water TDS 10,200ppm, after our RO system 175ppm - Wyoming Well Water TDS 6,304ppm, after our RO system 149ppm - Nevada Well Water TDS 2,200ppm, after our RO system 52ppm - Texas Well Water TDS 8,485ppm, after our RO system 122ppm - New Mexico Well Water TDS 3,600ppm (mostly Sulfate at 2,100ppm), after our RO system 36ppm - Maine Well Water TDS 3,500ppm, after our whole house RO system 95ppm - Colorado Well Water TDS 6700ppm (mostly Sulfate 4090ppm & Sodium 1550ppm), after our RO system 83ppm.

Recommendations

  • Tailor-Made vs. Off-the-Rack: While off-the-rack systems might be cheaper, a tailored solution ensures that the system meets your specific needs and performs efficiently over time.

  • Manufacturer’s Expertise: Consider manufacturers with a strong track record in handling high TDS levels and complex water issues, as their expertise will be critical in designing a system that works effectively.
