Reverse Osmosis Drinking Water for Reno Homes
Cleaner drinking water at one tap for drinking and cooking. Under-sink and tankless reverse osmosis systems, with alkaline and remineralization options sized to your free water test.
What Reverse Osmosis Does
Reverse osmosis is a point-of-use drinking water system. Instead of treating all the water entering your home, it filters the water you drink and cook with at a single tap, usually the kitchen sink. Water is pushed through a fine membrane to reduce many of the things that affect taste and quality at the tap.
Because it works at one tap, an RO system is compact and lives under your sink. We base what we recommend on your free water test, and we can pair reverse osmosis with a whole-house system or a softener if your water calls for it.
Who reverse osmosis is right for
- Reno homeowners who want cleaner drinking water right at the kitchen tap
- Households tired of buying and storing bottled water for drinking
- Homes where city water taste or odor bothers them at the drinking tap
- Well owners who want an extra layer of filtration for the water they drink
Options at the Tap
Reverse osmosis is not one size fits all. These are the options we help you choose between, based on your water test and how much under-sink space you have.
Under-Sink RO Systems
A traditional reverse osmosis system installs under your kitchen sink with a small storage tank and a dedicated drinking water faucet. A reliable choice for steady filtered water at the tap.
Tankless RO Systems
A tankless system skips the storage tank, so it takes up less space under the sink and frees up cabinet room. A good fit for tighter kitchens.
Alkaline and Remineralization Add-On
Some reverse osmosis systems can be paired with an alkaline or remineralization filter that adds minerals back into your drinking water. We can show you whether this option fits what you want.

How Reno Water Guy Approaches It
Every recommendation starts with a free water test, and you work with one local specialist from the test through follow-up.
Free In-Home Water Test
We test your water on site at no cost and explain what we find in plain English, with no pressure.
Personalized Recommendation
Based on your actual results, we recommend the right system for your home, never a one-size-fits-all package.
Professional Installation
Installation and ongoing service are handled by our local installation partner, Pure Water Systems of Nevada.
Why Pair RO with a Whole-House System
A reverse osmosis system handles your drinking water at one tap. A whole-house system treats every tap in the home. Many Reno homeowners pair the two so the water they bathe in is filtered and the water they drink gets an extra step.

What Northern Nevada Customers Say
Real feedback from homeowners who worked with Reno Water Guy.
We bought the Reionator Plus Ultra from Pure. Can't believe the difference in taste and quality of our water! Kawika was great to work with and answered all of our questions. Jose did the installation in a most professional manner. Over all we found it to be an exceptional experience!

What a great experience with Kawika at Pure Water Systems of NV! We're new to the area and have never had a water softener before. I got a couple of quotes, but it was pretty clear that this was the company we wanted to go with. Kawika was so thorough explaining everything, testing our water, and sharing the various options. And coming back after a couple of weeks to check in and test our water to make sure everything was working properly, and re-explaining maintenance. It's great to have options for DIY maintenance or full service. And now we love our whole house system and reverse osmosis in the kitchen for drinking water. Highly recommend!

I had a great experience with Pure Water Co. in Nevada. From start to finish, Kawika and Zack were professional, knowledgeable, and took the time to explain the different options available without making the process feel overwhelming. I especially appreciated their knowledge of water quality and their willingness to answer my questions thoroughly. The service was professional, the installation was handled well, and I felt confident that I was getting a system that was appropriate for my home and our water conditions here in Nevada. Zack, thank you for your help with the spigot.
