Water Filtration
What is the difference between a water purifier and a water filtration system?
Water purifiers serve a similar function as water filters, as both remove impurities. However, water purifiers go a step further by killing biological contaminants and removing minerals from water.
What is a water purifier?
​​Water purifiers function similarly to water filters, as both remove impurities. However, water purifiers go a step further by killing biological contaminants and removing minerals from water. This is done via two methods of purification:
-
Reverse osmosis (RO)
-
Distillation
-
UV Treatment
Reverse osmosis works much like a filter, but instead of using contaminant-grabbing media, it forces all water particles through a very small semi-permeable membrane (think of the whites of an egg). This semi-permeable membrane screens out all particles that are too big to follow the water's pathway.
