5 Simple Checks for Choosing the Right RO

Water is a natural resource and nature has provided us unlimited access to it. But with passing years and increase in manmade activities, access to clean drinking water is no less than a luxury. Water bodies are often polluted with contaminants that are harmful for humans and therefore the water from these bodies should be filtered before consumption. While there are many filtering systems available in the market, reverse osmosis (RO) is the most trusted technology.

This article will discuss 5 simple steps that will help you choose the right RO for your home or office complex.

  1. Check the Type of Contaminant: Each water contaminant is different and might require a different type of purification system. You can do a total dissolved salt (TDS) test at home or get a water testing kit to understand what kind of impurities are you dealing with and select your purifier accordingly.
  1. Combination: Depending on the type of water contaminant, you might need to opt for an RO with UV technology which takes care of microorganism that can cause fatal infections and discomfort. The cost of RO and UV combined water purifier is higher but then ROs are a long-term investment and you should not mind spending a little more if you are getting a great deal.
  1. Capacity: This is the third step that you should consider when you select an RO. If you have a small family, then 5 liters should be good but if you have a commercial requirement, then reverse osmosis plant manufacturers offer customized solutions depending on your requirement. Major brands available in the market offer diverse capacity.
  1. Maintenance: Installing an RO is a one-time affair but annual or bi-annual maintenance will be a regular affair. So, while selecting your reverse osmosis plant manufacturers, make sure you consider whether they provide installation and maintenance service in your area. Try to work out a deal where at least some of the initial maintenance are free or discounted.
  1. Cost: This is the last step because of a reason. We usually tend to give a lot of importance to cost and overlook the other important aspects. When it comes to narrowing down ROs on the basis of the above steps, your major work is done. You would already have a few options in mind and now all you need to do is select the one that best suits your budget.

The water purifier market is flooded with multiple brands both renowned and local that claim to purify the water and provide great services. The best way of selecting is to rely on customer reviews and testimonial. Some companies arrange camps and roadside kiosks to give you a demo of the water purifier. In these kiosks, you can actually taste how different the purified and impure water tastes. These are also a great way to test the filter system hands-on and check the speed of the purifier. Follow these steps to select the best.
