FILTRATION OPTIONS
FILTRATION OPTIONS
Used to remove particulate from the rainwater line that may carry pathogens and increase water clarity. This is typically the first step to post-tank treatment.
Reduces discoloration, odor and volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Carbon filtering uses activated carbon to remove impurities by utilizing chemical adsorption along.
Ultraviolet lights are used to sterilize any pathogens and prevent reproduction, making rainwater safe for reuse.
UV dosage is quantified by millijoules per squared centimeter (mJ/cm 2 ).
US Public health requires 16 mJ/cm 2
NSF/EPA requires 40 mJ/cm 2
1. Self-Cleaning / Back-flushing Filters are used to remove large sediment particulate.
2. Cartridge / Bag Housings are secondary form of sediment filtration and remove particles larger than 5 microns in size.
3. Carbon Filtration reduces discoloration, odor and VOCs.
4. UV Lights are used to sterilize any pathogens and prevent reproduction.
5. Domestic Backup lines are integrated into the piping layout to allow for continuous water supply should the rainwater supply be depleted.
6. Flowmeters measure flow from both rainwater and domestic sources to record water usage.
7. Pressure Differential Transmitters determine when sediment and carbon filter elements need replacing. This increases the accuracy of when to conduct system maintenance.

*All RMS Standard Filtration Skids come with 1” flange drain line and are plumbed in copper pro-press unless otherwise specified.
If a different filtration design is required, contact RMS for a custom solution or use the product matrix when ordering. Flow rate and at least one form of filtration is required. RMS employs an experienced and knowledgeable team to custom build and plumb these skids. The filtration skids can be plumbed in copper pro-press, stainless-steel press, or Sch. 80 PVC.
