Introduction

Upgrading to a new Reverse Osmosis (RO) water purifier is a smart move for anyone seeking cleaner, healthier drinking water. As time passes, older RO systems may become less efficient, and newer models can offer advanced features and better filtration performance.

1. Why Upgrade Your RO System?

RO systems have a lifespan. Over time, filters become clogged, membranes lose effectiveness, and overall performance degrades. Consider an upgrade if:

• Water quality deterioration: If your water tastes bad or has visible impurities.
• Higher water wastage: Older systems waste more water, leading to higher bills.
• Increased maintenance costs: Frequent repairs and part replacements make upgrading cost-effective.
• Outdated technology: Modern systems offer UV sterilization, mineral enhancement, and better energy efficiency.

2. How to Choose the Right RO System

a. Water Quality in Your Area

Check for high levels of dissolved salts, heavy metals, or contaminants. The hardness or softness of your water supply can also determine the type of RO system you need.

b. Size and Capacity

Match the system’s size to your household’s water consumption. Standard residential RO systems range from 5-10 liters, but larger families may need higher capacity.

c. Additional Features

• UV filtration: Eliminates bacteria and viruses.
• Alkaline filtration: Adds minerals like calcium and magnesium.
• TDS control: Adjusts Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) levels.
• Leakage protection: Prevents water damage.

3. Preparing for Installation

a. Location of the Installation

Install the RO system under the kitchen sink or near the main water inlet with adequate space for maintenance.

b. Plumbing Considerations

Ensure compatibility with your water supply and drainage system. Some installations may require an additional faucet.

c. Electrical Requirements

Advanced RO systems with UV filters and TDS controllers need an electrical outlet nearby.

4. Cost Considerations

• System cost: Basic models start at INR 8,000, while high-end units cost INR 20,000 or more.
• Installation charges: Range from INR 500 to INR 2,000.
• Maintenance costs: Regular filter and membrane replacements should be factored into your budget.

“With the right installation and proper care, your RO system will provide years of reliable service, ensuring your home stays hydrated and healthy.”
