Tag: RO Water Purifiers in India

Water purifiers have become an integral part of our lives.

Today I am going to talk about a type of water purifier that is not so common in Indian homes.

Unlike India, under-sink water purifiers are the preferred choice for homes in the U.S. and Europe.

However, these water purifiers are slowly gaining popularity in India too.

The biggest reason for their growing popularity is the fact that kitchens of the most newly constructed homes & apartments have a provision for under-sink purifiers only.

Under-Sink water purifiers do what other water purifiers do, the only difference being the fact that they can be installed below your kitchen sink.

Highly efficient, Under-the-Counter RO systems work hidden and out of sight, making them the best choice for all design perfectionists.

Apart from the looks, the best part is saving up on space. These purifiers don’t encroach onto your much-needed counter space. Instead, they can be fitted neatly below sinks, making your kitchen work space as tidy as can be.

And it’s not like you’re compromising on filtration strength. They perform just as skillfully as any other purifier out there.

All the while adding to the beauty of your Kitchen, two benefits for the price of one!

Now here are some suggestions for you to pick the best-of-the-rest when it comes to the Under-sink RO water purifiers market.

Reviews of the Top 3 Under Sink Water Purifiers in India

The innovator of the industry, AO Smith, never stops surprising. This time with their 6-Stage purification under-sink RO.

This water purifier purifies water using a Pre-filter, Sediment Filter, Pre Carbon Filter, RO Membrane, and SCM-TECH (Silver Activated Post Carbon) + MIN-TECH (Mineraliser Technology).

Giving out a storage capacity of 5 litres and a purification capacity of up to 15 litres per hour.

All this comes with WQA certification for their RO membranes and everything. Maintaining all ANSI 58 and NSF standards.

This Kent water purifier utilizes Kent’s patented Mineral RO purification technology to the fullest.

It’s suitable for all kinds of purification with its TDS controller, be it municipal tap, or borewell water. Providing 100% safe water by getting rid of even the finest impurities, such as chemicals, bacteria, viruses, and salts.

1. Sediment Filter

4. UV Disinfection

This purifier also saves you from the headache of keeping track of when to change the various filters and membranes.

The automatic filter change alarm alerts you when filters and membranes are due for replacement. There is a separate alarm that goes off automatically whenever the system detects any fault in the UV lamp.

The Excell Plus features a large 7-litres storage tank and is therefore ideal for large families. But you must keep in mind that it needs a lot of space for installation.

When it comes to certifications. The Kent Excell Plus comes with world-class certifications from NSF International (United States), and CE. Guaranteeing trust from the public as well as the professionals.
