Does reverse osmosis remove MTBE?

Reverse osmosis systems, such as the Elite Series 3 RO Filter, are highly effective at removing MTBE (methyl tertiary-butyl ether), a harmful volatile organic compound. By trapping these substances in its semi-permeable membrane, the system ensures safe, clean, and contaminant-free water for your household. Regular maintenance helps sustain the system’s high performance in eliminating such toxins.
