Process of water purification
Process of purification
Notice
Filter is vital to water purifier. If authentic filter is not used, or old filter is used
though it's authentic, then this can cause performance deterioration.
Step 1: Sediment filter
Step 2: Pre carbon filter
Step 4: Post carbon filter
Step 3: Membrane Filter(R/O)
This protects the part (or place) where water contacts by filtering
unseen dregs and contaminated substances.
Remaining Chlorine and volatile organic compound is removed at
this pre-carbon filter.
Smell left in water is filtered at this step,
and the taste of water is improved.
■Drained Water
- You can use drained water for daily
activities like dish wash, laundry,
cleaning etc.
- Please do not use this water for
drinking and cooking.
Heavy metallic substances, ionized substances and microorganism
is removed through this membrane filter.
At this step, drained water comes out along the drain hose.
