Water Purifier Buying Guide
Before we dive deep into our report first understand the technical jargon used in water purification :-
Reverse Osmosis(RO) :- Semi permeable membrane having extremely tiny pores in micron are used to filter remove ions, unwanted molecules and larger particles.
Ultra Filtration (UF) :- Pressure or concentration gradients is used to a separate solute of high molecular weight by allowing water and low molecular wight solutes to pass through a semipermeable membrane.
Ultraviolet Filtration(UV) :- Water is passed through a UV lamp chamber where the microorganism and bacteria gets killed.
Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) :- Dissolved organic and inorganic solids in water is known as TDS. It is the presence of minerals, metals or salts in a given volume of water which is is expressed as parts per million (ppm).
TDS Level(mg/ltr) | Rating |
Less than 300 mg/litre | Excellent |
300 to 600 mg/litre | Good |
600 and 900 mg/litre | Fair |
900 and 1200 mg/litre | Poor |
Greater than 1200 mg/litre | Unacceptable |
