While there are alternatives like water cans and water bottles, these aren\u2019t long-term solutions. Not to mention that water bottles are single-use and tend to contribute to a higher carbon footprint. And water in 20-litre plastic cans tends to come from questionable sources.

It should be able to perfectly purify water at all times.<\/p>\n<p id=\"259c\" class=\"pw-post-body-paragraph iw ix ho iy b iz ja jb jc jd je jf jg jh ji jj jk jl jm jn jo jp jq jr js jt hh et\" data-selectable-paragraph=\"\">After all, it does concern your health and your family\u2019s well-being. So, here are some factors you absolutely need to consider before investing in a water purifier:<\/p>\n<figure class=\"li lj lk ll fq ip fe ff paragraph-image\">\n<div class=\"iq ir cj is dq it\" tabindex=\"0\" role=\"button\">\n<div class=\"fe ff il\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"dq iu iv aligncenter\" role=\"presentation\" src=\"https:\/\/miro.medium.com\/max\/1400\/0*-_ud8BFwcCD2aWxZ\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"364\" \/><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<h3 id=\"304f\" class=\"lm kf ho cg kg ln lo lp kk lq lr ls ko jh lt lu ks jl lv lw kw jp lx ly la lz et\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Input_water_quality\"><\/span><strong class=\"ba\">Input water quality<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p id=\"f502\" class=\"pw-post-body-paragraph iw ix ho iy b iz lc jb jc jd ld jf jg jh le jj jk jl lf jn jo jp lg jr js jt hh et\" data-selectable-paragraph=\"\">As mentioned earlier, the input water quality tends to fluctuate based on the source of the water. For example, two households in the same locality may have completely different water qualities. One household may be using municipal water whereas the other might depend on borewell for their water needs.<\/p>\n<p id=\"7c57\" class=\"pw-post-body-paragraph iw ix ho iy b iz ja jb jc jd je jf jg jh ji jj jk jl jm jn jo jp jq jr js jt hh et\" data-selectable-paragraph=\"\">So, before you decide to invest in a water purifier, ensure that you at least check the water\u2019s TDS, turbidity, and chloride levels.<\/p>\n<p id=\"bfe2\" class=\"pw-post-body-paragraph iw ix ho iy b iz ja jb jc jd je jf jg jh ji jj jk jl jm jn jo jp jq jr js jt hh et\" data-selectable-paragraph=\"\">While you do get DIY kits, it\u2019s best to reach out to a professional lab if you notice certain characteristics like intense odour, colour, scales, or even changes in the taste. The recommended TDS level of water:<\/p>\n<table dir=\"ltr\" border=\"1\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" data-sheets-root=\"1\" data-sheets-baot=\"1\">\n<colgroup>\n<col width=\"224\" \/>\n<col width=\"193\" \/><\/colgroup>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>TDS<\/td>\n<td>Level Quality of Water<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>0-200<\/td>\n<td>Good<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>201-500<\/td>\n<td>Fair<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>&gt;500<\/td>\n<td>Bad<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p id=\"88c9\" class=\"pw-post-body-paragraph iw ix ho iy b iz ja jb jc jd je jf jg jh ji jj jk jl jm jn jo jp jq jr js jt hh et\" data-selectable-paragraph=\"\">Metro cities in India tend to depend on at least three types of water sources:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"\">\n<li id=\"6ff6\" class=\"ma mb ho iy b iz ja jd je jh mc jl md jp me jt mf mg mh mi et\" data-selectable-paragraph=\"\">Municipality water that reaches your home via rivers, lakes, and other sources.

So, it\u2019s always best to understand the level of contamination of your water source before you move on to the purification technology.<\/p>\n<p id=\"75cd\" class=\"pw-post-body-paragraph iw ix ho iy b iz ja jb jc jd je jf jg jh ji jj jk jl jm jn jo jp jq jr js jt hh et\" data-selectable-paragraph=\"\">When it comes to purification technology, the most common types of water purifiers are the RO or Reverse Osmosis water purifiers, Ultraviolet water purifiers, and Ultrafiltration water purifiers. Of course, there are additional components like activated carbon filters that work in tandem with the above technology.<\/p>\n<p id=\"b24e\" class=\"pw-post-body-paragraph iw ix ho iy b iz ja jb jc jd je jf jg jh ji jj jk jl jm jn jo jp jq jr js jt hh et\" data-selectable-paragraph=\"\">These filtration technologies essentially come with their own proprietary process to help purify varying levels of contaminants. For example, RO water purifiers use a permeable layer to filter out contaminants whereas UV water purifiers use ultraviolet light to kill microbes in the water. UF water purifiers, on the other hand, help remove larger particulate matter.<\/p>\n<p id=\"1f1e\" class=\"pw-post-body-paragraph iw ix ho iy b iz ja jb jc jd je jf jg jh ji jj jk jl jm jn jo jp jq jr js jt hh et\" data-selectable-paragraph=\"\">Some input water may even require a combination of two or all of these technologies.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"652d\" class=\"lm kf ho cg kg ln lo lp kk lq lr ls ko jh lt lu ks jl lv lw kw jp lx ly la lz et\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Storage_capacity\"><\/span><strong class=\"ba\">Storage capacity<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p id=\"5aef\" class=\"pw-post-body-paragraph iw ix ho iy b iz lc jb jc jd ld jf jg jh le jj jk jl lf jn jo jp lg jr js jt hh et\" data-selectable-paragraph=\"\">The storage capacity of the water purifier is another important factor that you need to consider when looking to buy a water purifier. The storage capacity is important as water purifiers are dependent on electricity and India has a ton of places with frequent power outages and fluctuations. So, you\u2019ll need a reservoir of clean water in the event of a blackout.<\/p>\n<p id=\"5a0d\" class=\"pw-post-body-paragraph iw ix ho iy b iz ja jb jc jd je jf jg jh ji jj jk jl jm jn jo jp jq jr js jt hh et\" data-selectable-paragraph=\"\">As a rule of thumb, an individual must consume 5\u20138 litres of water on a daily basis. So, for 2\u20134 member households, we recommended you buy a water purifier of up to 10\u201315 litres of storage capacity.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"ce60\" class=\"lm kf ho cg kg ln lo lp kk lq lr ls ko jh lt lu ks jl lv lw kw jp lx ly la lz et\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Cost_and_maintenance\"><\/span><strong class=\"ba\">Cost and maintenance<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p id=\"3dbb\" class=\"pw-post-body-paragraph iw ix ho iy b iz lc jb jc jd ld jf jg jh le jj jk jl lf jn jo jp lg jr js jt hh et\" data-selectable-paragraph=\"\">The price of the water purifier is something that you have to consider when you\u2019re looking to buy a water purifier. As mentioned earlier, it\u2019s best to focus on functionality rather than popular brand names with celebrity endorsements as these may be extremely expensive and it wouldn\u2019t necessarily provide perfectly purified water.<\/p>\n<p id=\"ae8c\" class=\"pw-post-body-paragraph iw ix ho iy b iz ja jb jc jd je jf jg jh ji jj jk jl jm jn jo jp jq jr js jt hh et\" data-selectable-paragraph=\"\">Additionally, maintenance is something you\u2019ll have to consider as part of your overall investment. Especially as the water purifier needs to be consistently maintained to provide safe drinking water. Most companies have an Annual Maintenance Cost (AMC) that can range from \u20b94000-\u20b95000. This cost can stack up over time and can really burn a hole in your wallet. So, choose wisely.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"a6a8\" class=\"lm kf ho cg kg ln lo lp kk lq lr ls ko jh lt lu ks jl lv lw kw jp lx ly la lz et\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Features\"><\/span><strong class=\"ba\">Features<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p id=\"b5b2\" class=\"pw-post-body-paragraph iw ix ho iy b iz lc jb jc jd ld jf jg jh le jj jk jl lf jn jo jp lg jr js jt hh et\" data-selectable-paragraph=\"\">Any additional features that make your life more convenient are always worth looking into. For example,\u00a0<a class=\"au lh\" style=\"text-decoration: none; color: #0606ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.drinkprime.in\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener ugc nofollow\">at DrinkPrime, we use the IoT(Internet of Things)<\/a>\u00a0to help us track your water purifier\u2019s health.

Well, ideally, you should buy a water purifier based on your source water quality. For example, if you live in a place like Whitefield, Bengaluru where the water is highly contaminated with TDS levels of over 500 ppm, then you should definitely look into getting the best of the best.<\/p>\n<p id=\"8cf3\" class=\"pw-post-body-paragraph iw ix ho iy b iz ja jb jc jd je jf jg jh ji jj jk jl jm jn jo jp jq jr js jt hh et\" data-selectable-paragraph=\"\">For example, a RO water purifier or a water purifier with a combination of technology depending on the level of toxicity would be your best bet.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"mo mp mq\">\n<p id=\"7b3d\" class=\"iw ix mr iy b iz ja jb jc jd je jf jg ms ji jj jk mt jm jn jo mu jq jr js jt hh et\" data-selectable-paragraph=\"\">However, not all water purifiers are perfect for you. In fact, the traditional water purifiers happen to purify all water in the same manner, resulting in under-purified or over-purified water. Both of which are bad for your health.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p id=\"fb19\" class=\"pw-post-body-paragraph iw ix ho iy b iz ja jb jc jd je jf jg jh ji jj jk jl jm jn jo jp jq jr js jt hh et\" data-selectable-paragraph=\"\">Most importantly, water purifiers are treated as commodities and home appliances.
