Maintenance of your best water purifier under storage category
If you think the best water purifier you have bought and installed in your kitchen will perform best for years together without maintenance, you are wrong. For this appliance to perform effectively, proper maintenance is a must. And then maintenance parameters differ from one water purification system to another. For example, if you are using a hybrid or UV or RO system, you will have to avail regular maintenance support from the company authorized technicians. For storage systems, you will have to maintain it regularly; you require no service support unless any major problem crops up.
So, you have bought the best water purifier available in the market under the storage category. Your appliance runs without electricity or running water. And it comes incorporated with four filter cartridges. Purification happens step by step in four different stages! What ultimately flows from the faucet is 100 percent pure and safe H2O. The question here now lies about your best water purifier performing best always round the year.
Generally a storage appliance comes in two containers – top and bottom. At the very start, i.e. once you assemble your appliance, do discard the first filling of the bottom container. You can continue consuming from the second filling. Cartridges come with a service life; get them replaced once their life gets over. Do ensure that after the replacement is done, the first filling of purified water in the bottom container of your best water purifier is discarded. This procedure should be followed every time you replace the filter cartridges.
The cartridges and the containers need to be cleaned once in every 15-20 days. How do you go about cleaning the containers and the cartridges of your water purification system? Here are a few instruction tips:
To clean carbon block (standard filter in most storage purifiers), get the bellow pump filled with water. Then get the carbon block immersed in water and use your thumb to close the opening at the bottom side. Insert the bellow pump from the other end, pressing it like an injection; repeat for three or four times to back flush.
