(57) Abstract :
A water treatment system includes a filter module and a reverse osmosis module secured to the filter module. The filter module
contains two filter cartridges. The modular structure of the components enables the filter module to have the two filter cartridges
connected as separate pre and post filters or connected in series as a single two-stage filter. Similarly the modularity permits multiple
reverse osmosis modules to be connected is a daisy chain manner for increased treatment capacity. A novel bracket structure aligns
ports of the filter module with corresponding ports on the reverse osmosis module.
