Osmio PRO-II-XL Advanced Whole House Water Filter System - All Questions
I will be fitting a Pro-11-XL plus a non salt softener in line. Can you tell me what space is needed to accommodate the above so that the plumbers can prepare the position in advance.

Each Housing has the following dimensions (there are two housings in total) 23-7/8" x 7-1/4" (606 mm x 184 mm)
You will also need to allow approx 100 - 150mm for the fittings, to connect the two housings and one on each end. The housings do not have to be mounted inline they can be mounted vertically one above the other or around a corner if space is tight
You should also allow room below to be able to drop the filter housing when changing filters, you will need another 50mm in height to allow this.
We also recommend that you fit a bypass to the system to allow maintenance. (See the installation manual on the product webpage for indication of a typical by-pass installation
The Maxi-soft dimensions are Height 210 mm, Width 90 mm, Depth 140 mm, and again 50mm needs to be allowed to remove the bowl for refilling and an allowance needs to be made for fittings
The filter system is usually installed before the Maxisoft

Does this model filter out hormones and micro-plastics?
Am I right that this model also remineralises the water?
Presumably it doesn't need an electricity supply?

It has not been tested for this, but we would suggest having RO at point of use to ensure this reduction happens.
It has active ceramic which has one ball with has a ionising ph effect to more alkaline and it does not use electric, only water pressure

My house - and 2 other houses - are supplied from a relatively shallow well. The water is now high in nitrates and nitrites and is very hard water. I have installed a UV light at the pump so should not be getting any coliforms now. My water pressure is not great - between 1 and 1.5 bar.
Will any of your systems eliminate nitrates and nitrites and cope with the pressure that I have?
I would also wish to install a no-salt softener, with very hard water how long will cartidges for this last?
If the system could work all three houses would be interested to install the system.
I look forward to hearing from you.

You can use an Osmio Zero in the kitchen for Nitrates and Nitrites. Non salt media lasts the same amount of time for everyone, since it doses 5ppm per litre of water running through it. If you have a private supply, it is better that you don't just order products but contact us to go through the process, we need to know your water analysis and other specifics before deciding how to tackle problems.
