Do water purifiers waste water, especially in the case of reverse osmosis systems?
RO systems can produce wastewater during the purification process. However, some modern models are designed to be more water-efficient. Look for water-saving features when choosing a purifier.
Can water purifiers remove all types of contaminants, including heavy metals?
Different purifiers have varying capabilities. RO systems are effective against heavy metals, while activated carbon filters can remove organic impurities. Check the specifications of your purifier for details.
What types of water purifiers are available, and how do they work?
Common types include activated carbon filters, reverse osmosis (RO) systems, UV purifiers, and gravity-based purifiers. Each works differently to eliminate specific contaminants.
