How to purify water to make it healthy?

Right from the days of having water from wells and rains, to purifying it with cloth, boiling it and carbon cleaning, we have come a long way in water purifying techniques. With every era passing by, we have reached a point where great innovations of its time, in water purification, have failed to reach satisfactory results. Not that the innovations were poor, but the quality of water in the ecosystem is deteriorating by the day. Advanced water purification technologies like UF filtration, UV filtration and RO technology have been in trend. However, every technology has its pros and cons.

So what is to be done to have safe drinking water, one may ask? Everyone has a water purifier at their homes, work places, etc. and almost everyone is under the impression that it is enough. Well, actually it is! Nothing more than having a water purifier can be done on daily basis to have safe drinking water. The matter of concern is that which kind of technology your purifier uses. If it’s on just carbon cleaning, then you have to realize that this technology is well past its prime. It is however effective if you use it in combination with other water purification technologies.

Since then, advanced water purification technologies like UF filtration, UV filtration and RO technology have been in trend. However, every technology has its pros and cons. UF helps in getting rid of bacteria and cysts but has no effect on viruses. UV eliminates bacteria, cysts and viruses but can do nothing about dissolved impurities. RO technology is so potent that it not only removes microbes and dissolved impurities but also takes away the essential minerals of water. So if your water purifier is working on one of these or more techniques, you probably are not getting healthy water to drink.

Some may argue that if a water purifier is functioning on all the techniques mentioned above, we are getting purified and clean water. But what good is a glass of water that only quenches your thirst deriving you from it essential minerals? The application of a purifier should not be just to make it fit for drinking; it should be to make it healthy for drinking.

Kent, a leading brand in water purifiers has to their name a technology that completes all the short comings in water purification segment. With raw water passing through sediment filtration and carbon cleaning, they also go through UF, UV and RO. But the concept of TDS (Totally Dissolved Solids) control which they follow, they manage to retain the minerals of water required for our body. TDS are basically all the minerals, ions and metals present in water. But by ‘TDS Controller’ they eliminate all the heavy metals and control the retaining of minerals. Which makes their technology an apt way of purifying water. So keep up with the pace of this modern world and choose the best for your health.
