Can Flow 2 replace my existing system or reverse osmosis setup?
Short Answer
Flow 2 can replace many standard filtration systems, but it does not replace reverse osmosis (RO) where dissolved salts or TDS removal is required.
Flow 2 is a whole-property ultra-filtration system designed to remove bacteria, microorganisms, and suspended particles — not dissolved minerals or salts.
Can Flow 2 Replace My Current Filtration System?
In many cases, yes.
Flow 2 can replace:
Basic sediment filters
Carbon-only filtration systems
UV-only systems
Entry-level multi-stage domestic filters
Because Flow 2 combines:
Pre-filtration
Ultrafiltration membrane
Activated carbon
UV sterilisation
It provides full-property microbiological and particulate protection in one integrated system.
Can Flow 2 Replace Reverse Osmosis (RO)?
Not in all cases.
Reverse osmosis systems are designed to remove:
Dissolved salts (TDS)
Nitrates
Arsenic
Fluoride
Dissolved heavy metals
High salinity
Flow 2 does not remove dissolved ions or salts.
If your water source contains high TDS, salinity, or specific dissolved contaminants, an RO system may still be required — either separately or in combination with Flow 2.
When Flow 2 Is Sufficient
Flow 2 is suitable when your primary concern is:
Bacterial contamination
Microorganisms
Suspended particles
Chlorine and odour compounds
Microplastics
Surface water or well water contamination
It is engineered to produce clean, safe water throughout the entire property without a storage tank.
Can Flow 2 Be Added to an Existing System?
Yes.
Flow 2 can:
Replace older systems
Be installed before or after an RO system
Work alongside a softener
Integrate into existing pump systems
Final configuration depends on:
Water test results
Existing plumbing
Property size
Usage demand
How Do I Know If It Can Replace My Current Setup?
The best approach is to provide:
Your latest water lab report (if available)
Photos of your current system
Property size and number of bathrooms
Any known water issues
We will confirm whether Flow 2 can fully replace your system or whether a combined solution is recommended.
Important Clarification
Flow 2 is not:
A desalination system
A salt removal system
A hardness removal system
A TDS reduction system
If hardness is your issue, a Softener is required.
If dissolved contaminants are present at high levels, RO may be required.
