How to Choose the Right Water Purifier for Your Home
Clean drinking water is not a luxury-it’s a necessity. With increasing water pollution and varying water sources across cities, choosing the right water purifier for your home has become more important than ever.
But with options like RO, UV, UF, and alkaline purifiers, making the right choice can feel confusing. This guide will help you select the best water purifier based on your home’s needs.
1. Know Your Water Source
The first step is understanding where your water comes from:
Borewell water – usually high in TDS (salts & minerals)
Municipal water – treated but may still contain bacteria
Tanker water – quality varies and may carry impurities
Testing your water’s TDS level helps determine the right purification technology.
2. Understand Water Purifier Types
RO (Reverse Osmosis) Purifier
Ideal for high TDS water
Removes dissolved salts, heavy metals, and chemicals
Best for borewell and tanker water
UV (Ultraviolet) Purifier
Kills bacteria and viruses
Suitable for low TDS municipal water
Does not remove dissolved salts
UF (Ultrafiltration) Purifier
Removes suspended particles and bacteria
Works without electricity
Suitable only for low-contamination water
RO + UV / RO + UV + UF
Comprehensive purification
Suitable for mixed or uncertain water sources
3. Check TDS Levels
Below 300 ppm – UV or UF purifier is sufficient
300-600 ppm – RO with mineral retention is ideal
Above 600 ppm – RO purifier is necessary
Choosing the wrong purifier can either under-purify or remove essential minerals.
4. Look for Mineral Retention
RO purification removes impurities-but it can also remove beneficial minerals. Choose purifiers with:
Mineral cartridges
TDS controllers
This ensures safe, healthy, and great-tasting water.
5. Capacity & Family Size
Select a purifier based on daily water usage:
Small family (2–3 members): 7–8 litres
Medium family (4–5 members): 8–10 litres
Large family: 10+ litres
Adequate storage ensures uninterrupted supply.
6. Maintenance & Service Support
Regular maintenance is essential for purifier performance.
Filter replacement cost
Availability of service technicians
Brand reliability
Choosing a trusted provider like Superior Solar ensures long-term peace of mind.
7. Power & Water Efficiency

Choose purifiers with low water wastage or reuse options
This saves both electricity and water in the long run.
