Most reverse osmosis systems do one thing - they filter water. The Kent NL7 goes further. Seven specialized filtration stages remove dissolved contaminants, chemicals, and heavy metals - and then two remineralizing stages add back essential minerals and activate the water through bioceramic technology - delivering balanced, great-tasting drinking water that is noticeably different from both tap water and bottled water.

Made in the EU using NewLine patented technology - professionally installed under your kitchen sink across Southern Ontario and the GTA.

From $14.95/month - flexible purchase and rental plans available. Professional installation included.

Quick Answer: What is the Kent NL7 Reverse Osmosis System?

The Kent NL7 is a 7-stage under-sink reverse osmosis drinking water system that removes dissolved contaminants - including chlorine, lead, chemicals, and organic compounds - through five advanced filtration stages, then restores essential minerals and activates the water through two remineralizing stages including a bioceramic activator. Built using NewLine patented technology from the EU, the NL7 delivers crystal clear, great-tasting drinking water on demand from a dedicated faucet at your kitchen sink. Every system includes professional installation, a choice of faucet finish, and manufacturer warranty coverage.

What the Kent NL7 does for your home?

What the Kent NL7 does for your home

  • Removes Dissolved Contaminants: Five filtration stages remove chlorine, lead, chemicals, and organic compounds that affect taste, smell, and water safety.
  • Restores Essential Minerals: Unlike basic RO systems that strip everything from water, the NL7's remineralization cartridge adds back essential calcium and magnesium for balanced, better-tasting water.
  • Bioceramic Activation: The bioceramic activator in the final stage enhances water quality through infrared activation - improving taste and the overall drinking experience.
  • Crystal Clear Water On Demand: Purified water is available instantly from the dedicated faucet - no waiting, no filling jugs, no running out.
  • Eliminates Bottled Water: One NL7 system replaces hundreds of plastic water bottles per year - saving money and reducing plastic waste.

The 7 Stages of the Kent NL7

The Kent NL7 uses seven specialized stages to transform your tap water into balanced, mineral-rich drinking water:

The 7 Stages of the Kent NL7

Stage 1: Sediment Pre-Filter Removes sand, silt, rust, and fine particles that can clog downstream filters and the RO membrane - protecting the system and extending filter life.

Stage 2: Carbon Block Pre-Filter Removes chlorine, chloramine, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and chemical residues from city water - protecting the RO membrane from chlorine damage and improving overall water quality before the membrane stage.

Stage 3: NewLine Patented Pre-Filter The NL7's proprietary NewLine cartridge provides an additional stage of advanced prefiltration using patented technology - delivering increased filtration capacity compared to standard pre-filter designs.

Stage 4: RO Membrane The high-precision reverse osmosis membrane removes dissolved impurities including lead, heavy metals, nitrates, arsenic, PFAS, and total dissolved solids - reducing contaminants that pre-filters and carbon filters cannot address. Membrane life: 8,000-20,000 gallons.

Stage 5: Carbon Post-Filter A final activated carbon post-filter removes any residual taste and odour after the RO membrane - polishing the water before the remineralization stages.

Stage 6: Remineralization Cartridge The remineralization cartridge adds back essential calcium and magnesium minerals in balanced proportions - improving taste, solubility, and the overall drinking experience. Cartridge life: 2,000 gallons.

Stage 7: Bioceramic Activator The bioceramic activator uses infrared ceramic technology in the final stage to further enhance water quality and taste - delivering finished water that is noticeably smoother and more refreshing than standard RO water.

Smart Faucet

How it works - from tap to glass

Step 1: We test your water

Kent's team conducts a free professional water test, measuring TDS levels, chlorine, and other parameters to confirm the NL7 is the right solution for your drinking water needs.

Step 2: We install everything

Kent's licensed technicians install the NL7 under your kitchen sink, connect it to your cold water supply line, mount the dedicated faucet, and configure and test the system - all in a single visit.

Step 3: Your water is purified

Tap water passes through all 7 stages - sediment pre-filtration, carbon pre-filtration, NewLine pre-filtration, RO membrane, carbon post-filtration, remineralization, and bioceramic activation - and is stored in the pressurized tank ready for instant on-demand dispensing.

Step 4: Pure water on demand

Turn the dedicated faucet and mineral-balanced, purified water flows immediately - for drinking, cooking, coffee, and any other use where water quality matters.

Is the Kent NL7 worth it

Is the Kent NL7 worth it?

For Southern Ontario homeowners who want the highest quality drinking water at home, the Kent NL7 is a compelling long-term investment. City water across the GTA - while safe to drink - contains residual chlorine, chloramine, and varying levels of dissolved solids that affect taste and odour. The NL7 addresses all of these at the point of use, producing water that is consistently better-tasting than tap water and comparable to or better than premium bottled water - at a fraction of the per-litre cost. The remineralization and bioceramic stages set the NL7 apart from basic RO systems - providing mineral-balanced water rather than stripped, flat-tasting purified water.

At $14.95/month it is the most affordable way to have genuinely premium drinking water on demand from your kitchen tap - without the cost, inconvenience or environmental impact of bottled water. For well water homes, the NL7 is typically installed as a final point-of-use stage after whole-home filtration and softening, providing the highest level of purification for drinking and cooking water.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is the difference between the Kent NL7 and a basic reverse osmosis system

    The Kent NL7 uses 7 specialized stages compared to the 5 stages found in most basic RO systems. The key difference is the two remineralizing stages - a mineralization cartridge and a bioceramic activator - that restore essential minerals and enhance water quality after the RO membrane. Basic 5-stage RO systems remove contaminants but also strip beneficial minerals, leaving flat-tasting water. The NL7 delivers balanced, mineral-rich drinking water with noticeably better taste. It also uses NewLine patented technology from the EU with quick-connect cartridges that require no tools to replace.
  • Does the Kent NL7 remove PFAS from drinking water?

    Yes - the RO membrane in the Kent NL7 is effective at removing PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances), also known as forever chemicals. PFAS are increasingly detected in drinking water supplies across Ontario and Canada, and reverse osmosis is one of the most effective residential treatment methods available for their removal.
  • How often do the filters need to be replaced in the Kent NL7?

    The NL7's pre-filters, post-filter, remineralization cartridge, and bioceramic activator have a service life of approximately 2,000 gallons - typically once per year for an average household. The RO membrane has a significantly longer life of 8,000-20,000 gallons - typically every 2-3 years depending on your water quality and usage. Kent provides filter replacement reminders and service support for all installed systems.
  • Can the Kent NL7 be installed if I already have a water softener?

    Yes - the NL7 works excellently alongside a water softener. The softener treats all water entering your home for hardness and scale prevention. The NL7 then provides a final point-of-use purification stage specifically for drinking and cooking water - removing any residual dissolved solids and the small amount of sodium added by the softening process. This combination is one of the most common whole-home water treatment setups for Southern Ontario homeowners.
  • Where is the Kent NL7 installed?

    The NL7 is installed under your kitchen sink - connected to the cold water supply line with a dedicated faucet mounted on the sink or countertop. It can also be wall mounted or placed on the cabinet floor next to the storage tank. Kent's licensed technicians handle the complete installation including faucet mounting.
  • Does the NL7 require electricity?

    The standard NL7 operates without electricity - relying on household water pressure to push water through the filtration stages. An optional booster pump can be added for homes where water pressure is insufficient for optimal RO performance - this pump does require a standard electrical outlet.
  • What faucet finishes are available?

    Every NL7 installation includes a choice of four faucet finishes - Brushed Gold, Chrome, Black, and Brushed Nickel - allowing you to match your kitchen décor. You can also upgrade to the Smart Digital Display Faucet which shows real-time TDS levels and filter life status directly on the faucet display.
  • How does the automatic shut-off valve work?

    The NL7 includes an automatic shut-off valve that closes when the storage tank reaches capacity - stopping water flow through the filtration stages and preventing unnecessary water waste. When you draw water from the faucet and tank pressure drops, the valve opens automatically to begin refilling and filtering.
  • Can the NL7 be used with well water?

    The NL7 can be used as a point-of-use drinking water system in well water homes - but it is most effective when installed after whole-home well water treatment systems (iron filter, sediment pre-filter, UV disinfection) that address the higher contaminant loads typical of private well water. Kent's free water test assesses your well water conditions and recommends the appropriate combination of treatment systems.
  • Is the NL7 suitable for apartments or condos?

    Yes - the NL7's compact design fits under most standard kitchen sinks, making it suitable for apartments, condos, and smaller homes where under-sink space may be limited. The quick-connect cartridge system also makes annual maintenance straightforward without requiring a plumber.
  • What is the Smart Digital Display Faucet upgrade?

    The Smart Digital Display Faucet is an optional upgrade available for the NL7 - and compatible with most existing RO systems. It displays your water's real-time TDS level and tracks pre-filter and RO membrane life automatically - alerting you when filters need replacing. It runs on AA batteries with no electrical wiring required. Contact us to add this upgrade to your NL7 installation.
