Reverse Osmosis Systems in Commerce City, CO

Drinking Water Filtered Down to the Molecule

A reverse osmosis membrane removes up to 98 percent of total dissolved solids, which is a level of filtration no carbon cartridge approaches. That includes the minerals, salts, and dissolved contaminants that shape how water tastes and how ice looks. JAC's Plumbing installs and services reverse osmosis systems throughout Commerce City, CO alongside Northglenn, Thornton, and Denver, from compact under-sink units to whole house configurations for households that want it everywhere. Taste is the first thing people notice.


Local supply from South Adams County Water and Sanitation District is softened at the Ennis facility to roughly 7 grains per gallon, which still leaves dissolved solids that reverse osmosis addresses directly. We size the system to your usage, plumb the drain saddle and storage tank correctly, and set a filter schedule you can actually keep. Our 23 years in the trade means the equipment gets installed for serviceability. Contact us through our website to talk it through.

Reverse Osmosis Systems We Install

  • Under-Sink Reverse Osmosis Installation

    A compact three to five stage unit fits in the cabinet and feeds a dedicated faucet at the sink. We mount the manifold, plumb the storage tank and drain saddle, and sanitize the system before handing it over ready to use.

  • Whole House Reverse Osmosis

    Treating every fixture requires larger membranes, a storage tank, and a repressurization pump. It is a significant system and we size it honestly, including the drain water it produces. Not every household needs this, and we say so.

  • Remineralization Stage Installation

    Reverse osmosis removes beneficial minerals along with everything else, which some people find makes water taste flat. A remineralization cartridge adds calcium and magnesium back after filtration, restoring balance without reintroducing the contaminants that were removed. Taste preference decides whether you want it.

  • Refrigerator and Ice Maker Connection

    Routing filtered water to the refrigerator gives you clear ice and better tasting cold water without a second filter. We run the line, install a proper shutoff, and secure the tubing so nothing gets pinched behind the appliance.

  • Membrane and Filter Replacement

    Prefilters typically last 6 to 12 months and membranes 2 to 5 years depending on usage and feed water. We handle scheduled changes, sanitize the housings, and verify output quality with a meter so you know the system is performing.

  • Water Testing and System Sizing

    Total dissolved solids, hardness, and pressure all affect which system suits your home. We test first, then specify. Feed pressure in particular determines whether a booster pump is needed for the membrane to perform properly. Booster pumps solve low pressure easily.

Why Choose Us for Reverse Osmosis Systems

Water That Genuinely Tastes Different

The change is immediate and obvious in drinking water, coffee, and ice. Households usually stop buying bottled water within the first month, which quietly offsets a meaningful share of what the system cost to install. Tea and coffee change noticeably too.

Sized to Your Actual Consumption

An undersized storage tank means waiting for the faucet to refill during dinner prep. We ask how much filtered water you actually use before specifying capacity, so the system keeps up with your household rather than limiting it.

Installed for Easy Servicing

Cartridge changes should take ten minutes, not an afternoon of contortion under a sink. We position the manifold with clearance for filter removal and label each stage. Maintenance you can perform is maintenance that gets done. Replacement cartridges are easy to source.

Honest About Drain Water

Reverse osmosis sends some water to the drain, and any installer who does not mention that is not being straight with you. We explain the ratio for your system upfront so there are no surprises on the water bill.

Testing Before and After

A meter reading before installation and another afterward shows exactly what the system removed. That number turns a claim into a measurement, and it gives you a baseline for judging when the membrane needs replacing. The reading goes in your file.

No Pressure to Oversize

Plenty of households are well served by an under-sink unit and do not need whole house treatment. Recommending the smaller system when it fits the need is how we would want to be treated ourselves. Smaller systems suit most households.

Reach out through our contact page and we will start by finding out what is actually in your water. A meter reading takes minutes and tells you more than any brochure.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What does reverse osmosis actually remove from water?

    The membrane rejects up to 98 percent of dissolved solids, including salts, lead, nitrates, fluoride, and many dissolved organic compounds. Prefilter stages handle sediment and chlorine before water ever reaches the membrane itself. A meter reading confirms the reduction afterward.

  • Does reverse osmosis remove healthy minerals too?

    Yes, it removes calcium and magnesium along with contaminants, which is why some systems include a remineralization stage. Dietary mineral intake comes overwhelmingly from food, though many people prefer the taste of remineralized water. Remineralization cartridges are inexpensive to add.

  • How much water does a reverse osmosis system waste?

    Older systems sent several gallons to drain per gallon produced, while modern efficient units are considerably better. The exact ratio depends on feed pressure and membrane design, and it is worth knowing before you choose a system. We explain your system's ratio upfront.

  • How often do reverse osmosis filters need changing?

    Sediment and carbon prefilters generally last 6 to 12 months, and the membrane 2 to 5 years. JAC's Plumbing sets a schedule for Commerce City, CO households based on measured output rather than on a generic calendar reminder alone.

  • Do I need a separate faucet for reverse osmosis water?

    Under-sink systems use a dedicated faucet, since the production rate cannot keep up with normal sink demand. Whole house systems feed everything, which is one of the practical reasons they cost substantially more to install. The faucet mounts in an existing hole.

  • Is reverse osmosis better than a water softener?

    They solve different problems. Softeners address hardness and scale throughout the plumbing, while reverse osmosis polishes drinking water at one tap. JAC's Plumbing frequently installs both in Commerce City, CO homes for exactly that reason. They complement each other well.

  • Will reverse osmosis water damage my pipes?

    Treated water is slightly aggressive, which matters in industrial settings more than residential ones. Under-sink systems feed only a dedicated faucet, so the effect on household plumbing is negligible. Remineralization stages address it as well. Residential concerns here are minimal.

  • How long does a reverse osmosis system last?

    The housings and faucet commonly last well over a decade with routine cartridge changes. Membranes and prefilters are consumables replaced on schedule. Storage tanks occasionally need a bladder recharge, which is a quick service item. Sanitizing the housings extends everything.
