Whole-Home RO FAQs

What people ask before they buy

How much does a whole-home reverse osmosis system cost installed?
Aqua Cat Plumbing installs the Charger AEC-2000 light-commercial whole-home reverse osmosis system for $14,999.99 flat in Prescott AZ. That price includes the AEC-2000 system (stainless steel, Goulds pump, dual TDS meters), permeate storage tank, booster pump, all parts, and up to 8 hours of loop plumbing. Anything beyond 8 hours is billed at $179 per hour. The system produces 1.39 GPM (about 2,000 gallons per day) of RO water at every tap in the home, removing up to 98.5% of total dissolved solids.
What size home does the AEC-2000 RO system fit?
The Charger AEC-2000 is sized for large residential homes (typically 4,000 sq ft and up), or any home with high water demand — 4 or more bathrooms, large family, hot tubs, or filling pools and ponds. It produces 2,000 gallons per day. For homes under 3,500 sq ft with normal use, the under-sink HydroSplash RO at $950 installed delivers RO drinking water at the kitchen sink for much less.
What does the AEC-2000 actually remove?
The Charger AEC-2000 reverse osmosis system removes up to 98.5% of total dissolved solids including arsenic, lead, fluoride, chromium-6, nitrates, sulfates, sodium, and most pharmaceuticals and PFAS compounds. The 100-Series 4040 thin-film composite membrane is rejection-rated at 98.5% nominal. For best results, install a softener and catalytic carbon pre-filter upstream — Aqua Cat configures the whole stack.
Does the Charger AEC-2000 come with a warranty?
Charger backs the AEC Series with a manufacturer warranty on the system. Aqua Cat adds our standard 2-year installation warranty on top — if anything plumbing-related fails during the first 24 months, we fix it free. Charger membranes are typically 3-5 year service life depending on water quality; we include a complimentary annual check-up for the first 2 years to monitor TDS and pressure.
How long does installation take?
Most whole-home RO installs in Prescott take 1 to 1.5 days. Day one we install the AEC-2000 system, permeate storage, booster, and tie in the loop plumbing (most jobs fit within the 8-hour included labor). Day two if needed for electrical inspection or final calibration. We coordinate with you on a date that works around your household schedule.
What if my loop plumbing needs more than 8 hours?
Older Prescott homes with complex routing, slab penetrations, or finished-basement work occasionally need 10-14 hours total. Anything beyond the 8-hour cap is billed at $179 per hour at standard Master Plumber rates. We give you a written estimate of expected hours before any work starts, so you'll know if your job is likely to exceed the cap before we begin.
Do you service Phoenix and Scottsdale for whole-home RO?
Yes. The AEC-2000 install travels well — we serve Phoenix, Scottsdale, Glendale, Surprise, and Sun City for whole-home RO installs in addition to our Prescott home base. Travel beyond a 90-minute radius adds a one-time travel fee; we'll quote it transparently before booking. Call (480) 228-8282 with your address.
What ongoing maintenance does the AEC-2000 need?
Pre-filters need replacing every 6-12 months ($85-$120 each, depending on size). The RO membrane lasts 3-5 years depending on incoming water quality — replacement runs $450-$650. Annual TDS check and pressure calibration take about 30 minutes. Aqua Cat offers a yearly maintenance visit at $189 that covers pre-filter swap, sanitization, and full system check.
