💧 Water Purifiers

TDS-based selection between RO+UV+MTDS, UV+UF municipal purifiers, and under-sink systems, with transparent annual filter maintenance math.

Choosing a water purifier without first testing your input water’s Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) and source type often leads to paying for unnecessary Reverse Osmosis (RO) stages that strip beneficial minerals—or worse, drinking inadequately filtered borewell or tanker water. In this subcategory, we teach you how to match an inexpensive digital TDS meter reading to the exact filtration architecture your household requires: UV+UF or gravity carbon filtration for low-TDS municipal tap water (under 200–250 ppm), or multi-stage RO+UV+UF with alkaline/copper mineralisation for high-TDS borewell and mixed supplies. We also scrutinise water-wastage recovery ratios, food-grade ABS plastic versus 304 stainless-steel storage tanks, microchip filter life lockouts, and true yearly sediment, carbon, and RO membrane replacement costs before you commit to a brand.
