Although water purifiers are no longer niche household appliances, many people still lack understanding of water purifiers. Most people believe that the water purifier is used to filter tap water to improve the water quality, and it is very convenient to drink the filtered tap water directly. It’s really like a mountain, and the water purifier is not as simple as you think!
First of all, water purifier is just a general term, and it has many types. There are certain differences in the price, appearance and filtration effect of each water purifier! Although the two water purifiers,
faucet water purifier and pre-mounted water purifier : , are installed in different locations, but their effects are similar to those from here, and they can only be used as coarse filtration devices. They can only filter large particles of impurities such as silt and iron filings in the water, and have no effect on some small bacteria, microorganisms, etc.
Water softener : You will know by listening to the name. This water purifier is mainly used to soften water quality. The water quality in the northwest region is relatively hard because the calcium and magnesium ions are high, so after boiling water, a lot of scale will adhere to the inner wall of the kettle. And the water softener can deal with this problem well.
Ultrafiltration water purifier : A good water purifier . For areas where tap water is slightly contaminated, installing this water purifier can solve the problem.
reverse osmosis water purifier : The water purifier with the best filtering effect among all water purifiers is able to filter out almost all impurities in the water. Because of its high-quality filtration effect, many public places have also chosen to install this water purifier to facilitate drinking water.
After understanding the above content, everyone should have a preliminary understanding of the water purifier. Not all water purifiers have the same water purifier. Among the many water purifiers, reverse osmosis water purifiers have the best water purifiers, and are also the only water purifier that can achieve direct drinking effect. So, when we are choosing a water purifier, if the salesperson says that other water purifiers can also reach the direct drinking level, it must be lying to you! The difference between
water purifiers mainly depends on the composition of the internal filter element. Common filter elements inside the water purifier include PP cotton filter element , activated carbon filter element , super membrane filter element and RO membrane filter element. Generally speaking, if a water purifier wants to achieve good water purification effect, it must have an ultra membrane filter element or RO membrane filter element. If there are no these two filter elements, no matter how many PP cotton filter element and activated carbon filter element there are inside this water purifier, it will not achieve good water purification effect. Because PP cotton filter element and activated carbon filter element are basic filter elements, they can only intercept large particles of impurities in tap water and absorb odors in water. The filtering accuracy of the super membrane filter element and RO membrane filter element is 0.01 micron and 0.0001 micron respectively, which can effectively intercept colloids, microorganisms, bacteria, etc. in water. It can be seen that the water purification effect of the water purifier depends on the type of filter element rather than the quantity.
Conclusion:
For novice who installs a water purifier for the first time, only by mastering enough water purifiers can you avoid sales scams and choose a satisfactory water purifier. Therefore, you must do more homework before purchasing!
