If you’re using municipal water or having source water TDS below 300 ppm and you’re using R.O. or UV water purifiers for drinking water then the below information is useful for you.

We must choose a water purification system based on our source water quality. However, in India, most of us are using RO or UV systems regardless of considering our source water quality. For better understanding let us go through it in depth.

What is RO Purifier?

Reverse Osmosis (RO) systems is a very commonly found option for water purification system in India. Reverse Osmosis (RO) is a water purification process that uses a semi-permeable RO membrane to separate unwanted molecules and larger particles, mainly salt, salination, and hardness like calcium from the water. Water is passed through the semipermeable RO membrane with high pressure, removing around 95% to 99% of reduction of Total dissolved Solids (TDS) from the source water while generating drinking water.

RO systems are useful, where the water TDS is more than 500 ppm or has more salination & hardness.

However, RO systems have certain limitations as well.

1) RO systems remove natural minerals from the water, making it almost demineralized or less mineral water while using with low TDS source water.

2) It wastes more than 60% water.

3) RO systems cannot remove heavy metals like arsenic, Iron(rust), aluminum, etc.

4) It cannot remove micro-organisms like bacteria and viruses and chlorine as well

6) It is a time-consuming process for water purification. It alters the taste of water.

What is UV Purifier?

UV water filters are those filters that use UV-ultraviolet rays to disinfect water and make it free from any bacteria or viruses. It uses unique lamps to emit light of a wavelength between 240 nm to 280 nm. These ultraviolet light rays kill microorganisms such as viruses, bacteria, cysts, etc.

UV Water filters are suitable for the source water which is chemical and heavy metal free.

UV water Filters also have certain limitations.

1) UV filter cannot remove impurities like heavy metal iron (rust), arsenic, aluminum etc. it can only kill viruses and bacteria.

2) It is not effective for muddy water or water which has high turbidity.

4) One compulsory has to install a pre-filter system before UV Filters which is not much effective.

5)It Requires electricity consumption

What is KITZ Micro Filter?

To resolve all the limitations of RO and UV water purification systems, KITZ Microfilters Corporation Japan has introduced innovative drinking water filters as per JIS and JWPA Japan Drinking water standards. The KITZ Micro-Filters are mechanical water filters. It’s the latest Japanese technology that specializes in purifying municipal water. It has 3 models Purifree, OSS-T7, OAS-9. These filters have advanced four-layer filtration capabilities. Kitz Micro Filters are the best water purifier for municipal water or where the source water has TDS of Less than 300 ppm.

HOW KITZ MICRO FILTERS ARE DIFFERENT THAN CONVENTIONAL RO AND UV FILTERS

Kitz Micro filters are tested as per JIS and JWPA Japan Standards and manufactured by passing all the strict quality standards. It can remove 19 types of contamination as listed on our website.

It does not remove useful minerals from the drinking water.

It’s a quality product by global brand KITZ CORPORATION JAPAN.

It does not require electricity.

It does not generate any Water Wastage.

There is no moving part that’s why it does not require frequent expensive Service or maintenance.

Kitz Microfilters are made to produce safe and pure drinking water.

It generates drinking water with high water output of 2.0 to 5.0 liter per minute.
