3 misconceptions about pure water purifiers

The concept of water purifiers as many cores as possible

Not the filter with many filters, the better the water filter. Because, normally an efficient water purifier has a maximum of 5 filter cores: 3 raw filters, 1 RO or Nano filter and 1 Cation core for calcium or limestone.

Water after the membrane will become pure water, beneficial minerals are also lost. Therefore, the filter is equipped with upgraded cores 6, 7, 8, 9 . to supplement minerals for the body. The user must distinguish the filter or mineral filler to be able to choose a good water purifier product.

Boil the water after filtering before drinking

Many people believe that boiling water is the safest, so even if it is filtered, it must still be boiled to be assured of drinking. But in fact, this is absolutely not true.

The outlet water of the household water purifier has removed all substances, contaminants, heavy metals, bacteria . meeting the direct drinking water standard of the Ministry of Health, so the output water can be taken directly. without boiling. Users can be assured of drinking this water immediately after taking out from the tap water filter.

If the water after filtering still contains minerals, when boiled on these minerals can be lost, making water no longer as good as drinking directly after taking out from the tap. Besides, water after being boiled must be preserved carefully and used immediately. Otherwise, the bacteria will invade and make us sick when we drink it.

Do not replace filters periodically

This is the most common mistake of families when using water purifiers. Water purifier core filter has a certain lifespan. Failure to replace it periodically will greatly affect water quality and machine life.

The first is water quality. When the filter is due but not replaced, the contaminants accumulate in the cores and can be recycled back to the water. This makes the output water quality unsecured, sometimes even more polluted than the input water. This in turn directly affects the health of users.

The second is the life of the water purifier. Filters not replaced periodically will affect the operation of the whole machine. Because this is a system related to each other. The filter that is due to be replaced but cannot be replaced can cause water clogging, slow flowing water, causing the water filter to become unstable.

Notes you need to know when using a water purifier

1. Do not install the tap to get water from the machine into a hot water pipe

Source water pipes of water purifiers are made of plastic and rubber materials. Installing the tap of the machine's water into the hot water pipe will cause the quick drain hose to be broken or very likely to be drained by the heat of the water.

2. Keep the water filter system from freezing

This phenomenon may be less likely to occur in Vietnam due to the hot and dry climate, but you should not be too subjective about this.

3. Keep the pipes that drain sewage out of the machine always open

Always pay attention to the sewage path to prevent clogging or clogging that will cause the waste water to not be discharged, the machine will not be able to automatically flush the filter system after the water filter. This not only reduces the lifespan of the water filter core but also makes the water quality after filtering will not be pure.

4. It is advisable to leave the washing machine for 3 hours for the new machine and the long machine for use

To ensure safety, remove water, mold, and other harmful bacteria from the water filter that has not been used for a long time, or clean the newly purchased machine, you should install it in the water line and the machine. run continuously for 3 hours.

5. Do not let the inlet water pressure be too large

In high-rise buildings, input water sources often have great pressure. So when using a water purifier, you should install 1 water source into the water filter and turn it down. When you are away from home for a long period of time, you should lock the water and turn off the power to avoid excessive water pressure to turn on the faucet and break the lock.
