What sources can a ROWPU treat?

• A. Lakes only
• B. Well water only
• C. Rivers and streams only
• D. Lakes, wells, rivers, oceans, streams, ponds, and ice

Answer: (D)

ROWPU is a versatile water purification system built to handle a wide range of feedwater sources, from fresh surface and groundwater to seawater. It uses pretreatment, desalination via reverse osmosis, and disinfection, which allows it to produce potable water from lakes, rivers, streams, ponds, and from groundwater drawn from wells, as well as from seawater. If you have ice as a source, melt it first to liquid water before feeding it into the ROWPU, and it can purify that as well. This breadth of capability is why listing lakes, wells, rivers, oceans, streams, ponds, and ice covers all realistic inputs the unit can treat.
