Ground water (water for bore wells, tube wells) typically has high TDS unlike surface
waters (water from rivers, lakes, reservoirs, ponds), which have low TDS but may
contain suspended and microbiological impurities. Groundwater with high TDS can
be effectively treated with reverse osmosis water filtration system a.k.a the RO
water purifier while surface waters can use a well-designed 3 stage UV water purifier
system for effective purification.
However, the question is how do you select the best water purifier for home use in
India?
Once you determine the type of water, it becomes easier to make a choice and ensures
that you pick the best First Drink RO water purifier or UV system based on your
specific requirements. One can’t stress enough on the importance of drinking clean
and purified water in order to stay away from harmful diseases. Also, the health
benefits of drinking water that are devoid of all contaminants are numerous and
as such, it is important to do your research before picking a water purifier.
Water purification systems, be it First Drinkb RO water purifiers or UV based purifiers,
is a cost-effective and best solution for treating the ever-present impurities and
harmful contaminants present in the tap water. By installing a UV or RO water purifier
for home and commercial use, you would also be able to eliminate the risk of serious
illnesses in the long-run, thus keeping your family and staff safe, healthy and
protected from life-threatening ailments.
Apart from the type of water, another consideration is the quality of water, i.e.
its TDS level. This is one of the other things to look for when buying a water purifier.
Total Dissolved Solids (TDS):
TDS is composed of inorganic salts & small amounts of organic substances which are
dissolved in water. For example, an excess of calcium, sodium, potassium and magnesium
salts in water make it hard. These organic matters while being naturally present
in water can damage your health if consumed more than the acceptable level and it
is for this reason that one needs a robust UV or RO water purifier.
As water from diverse sources like rivers, lakes, waterfalls, wells etc travels
through the land or ground it picks up sediments, minerals, salts deposits and other
by-products that get dissolved in water, making it unhealthy for consumption without
treatment. These dissolved solids in drinking water can be organic as well as inorganic.
However, they can also include radioactive and microbial contaminants.
Apart from heavy metals, chemicals and minerals, water can also be contaminated
with human waste materials and other bacteria and viruses. Mostly, one of the easiest
ways to identify if a water contains high TDS is to check whether the taste of the
water is salty or metallic or if it exudes repugnant odours.
Safe levels of TDS for a human body is under 500 PPM(this can be checked with a
simple TDS meter). If TDS is above 500 PPM, then there is a need to use RO water
purifier to bring the levels down, to safer levels. High levels of TDS over prolonged
periods (several years)may create health problems such as gall bladder and kidney
stones. On the contrary, it’s important to know that drinking water devoid of any
TDS and mineral content is also harmful to the body and creates health issues in
the long run.
Now, based on the TDS level, you can either choose a reverse osmosis water purifier
or a UV water purifier. For those who need a UV water purifier check out this Ewater

Reverse osmosis water purifier is by far the best technology that is able to remove
90-99% of dissolved solids from water. It does this by making use of a synthetic
RO membrane which contains microscopic pores that allow only water molecules to
pass through rejecting all dissolved metals and salts. Most RO water purifier comes
with pre-filters that not only removes harmful solids from water but also protects
the membrane from fouling.
