The AquaFX Dolphin (Platinum Series) is a premium, high-efficiency Reverse Osmosis system engineered specifically to tackle the challenges of low source water pressure. It is the perfect application for well water systems or municipal city water with poor water pressure.
Equipped with a built-in heavy-duty booster pump, this elite setup artificially ramps up water pressure to maximize pure water production speed and minimize waste. It comes fully loaded with a liquid pressure gauge to monitor system health, an installed backlit TDS meter for instant water quality verification, and an integrated manual flush kit to maximize your membrane's longevity.
Why You Need an AquaFX Dolphin Platinum System
Standard tap and well water are packed with invisible dissolved solids, heavy metals, volatile chemicals, and mineral hardness. Transitioning to ultra-pure RO water is essential for your home, pets, and specialized setups:
- Premium Drinking Water & Beverages: This system strips out up to 99% of impurities, heavy metals, and micro-contaminants, providing an ultra-clean base for your household. It is phenomenal for making coffee, tea, and crystal-clear ice cubes, allowing the true flavors of your beverages to express themselves without background chemical interference. (Note: Because it removes all minerals, you can add a post-mineralization filter if you prefer a traditional spring-water taste profile).
- Household Pets (Dogs & Cats): Just like humans, your pets benefit from cleaner water. Removing heavy metals, chlorine, and contaminants shields their kidneys and urinary tracts from toxin buildup, encouraging better hydration and overall health.
- Reptile Misting Systems: High mineral content in tap water leaves unsightly, stubborn white scale deposits on glass terrariums and clogs delicate automated misting nozzles. This system completely eliminates hard water staining, keeping enclosures pristine and equipment running smoothly.
- Freshwater Fish & Planted Aquariums: Tap water contains wild fluctuations in pH, hardness, and toxic disinfectants. This system removes excess calcium and harsh chemicals to give you a blank slate, making it a breeze to achieve the exact water chemistry required for delicate freshwater fish like Cichlids, shrimp, and live aquatic plants.
- Hydroponics & Indoor Gardening: Plants rely on precise nutrient absorption. Raw water contains background minerals that cause nutrient lockout and stunt growth. Using purified RO water ensures that every drop of liquid fertilizer you add is fully available to the root system for explosive yields.
- Farm Animals & Livestock: High levels of sulfur, iron, or nitrates in well water can cause digestive distress and refusal to drink among livestock. Clean, contaminant-free water ensures optimal hydration, better digestion, and improved health for farm animals.
The 3-Stage Filtration Process
Stage 1 — AquaFX 1-Micron Premium Sediment Filter: This acts like an ultra-fine net, catching physical debris floating in your lines—such as rust flakes, dirt, and sand—before it can clog the rest of the system
Stage 3 — AquaFX TFC RO Membrane: The powerhouse of the system. This advanced membrane screens water down to a microscopic level, separating pure water molecules from invisible dissolved solids, heavy metals, and hard calcium.
Tailor this stage to your exact needs with customizable options ranging from 50 GPD up to 300 GPD.- Membrane Performance Benchmarks: Please note that all AquaFX membrane flow-rate outputs are factory-rated based on ideal test conditions of 65 PSI water pressure, 77°F (25°C) water temperature, and 250 ppm input TDS over a 24-hour period. Lower supply pressure, cooler seasonal water temperatures, or higher baseline TDS will naturally reduce output—which is exactly why the Platinum Series features a built-in booster pump to guarantee peak performance!
