Reverse osmosis for many contaminants that pollute your water.

A water purifier is the only source to pure drinking water. Though 70% of our planet constitutes of water, yet there’s only 1% of fresh water that can be used for drinking purposes. But with increased levels of pollution, this one percent water is also unfit for direct consumption. Hence, installing a water purifier is the only possible remedy that can ensure safe water in every house.

The current scenario of impure water is already alarming. Basis a research of WHO over 80% of diseases are water borne and amongst the top causes of concern is the high levels of Total Dissolved Solids (TDS). All chemicals, metals and minerals put together form TDS that vary in density from area to area. Amongst the many water purifier technologies available in the market, reverse osmosis filtration is said to be the most effective one. Initially used at large scale, reverse osmosis filters were found in industries to treat saline water from the sea. However, a much simplified 6 stage purification methods is what determines thorough cleaning of water in an RO water purifiers. These stages are:

• Sediment stage to remove rough particles, sand and rust
• Carbon stage for chlorine and chemicals removal
• Reverse osmosis that eliminates dissolved solids larger than the water molecule itself
• Remineralization stage that infuses the purified water with calcium and magnesium to balance pH levels
• UV filter stage that destroys microorganisms
• 2nd carbon stage to remove any residual acidic taste or odour

Just one purifier with its many levels can help you bid adieus to your drinking water woes.
