Water purifiers and water filters are very common in our lives. Do you know the difference between them? What should I pay attention to when using a water purifier?
The difference between a water purifier and a
water filter
1. Different appearance and structure. Due to its simple principle, water filters are generally composed of activated carbon and ordinary non-woven filter materials, and can be used without plugging in electricity; while household water purifiers are often combined with a variety of materials, and their water purification functions and effects are also good. The water purifier not only contains the materials in the water filter, but also has the core filter element:
RO reverse osmosis membrane, pressurized solenoid valve, etc., with complete functions and complex structure.

2. The principles and materials are different. The water filter mainly uses the principle of activated carbon to filter out the macromolecule harmful substances in the water, but the virus, bacteria and heavy metals still cannot be removed. The water filtered by the water filter is usually used for industrial production or other commercial purposes. use. In comparison, the water purifier is a relatively high-tech product. The special feature of this water purification technology is that it is composed of a polymer permeable membrane with a pore size of only 0.0001 microns. Under the action of water pressure, water molecules smoothly pass through the membrane, while harmful substances such as microorganisms, heavy metals, and viruses in the water are blocked.

3. The price is different. Water filters used for washing water or breeding water can be purchased for about 100-300;
water purifiers used for making tea and drinking directly cost about 1000-4000.

Precautions for the use of water purifier
1. Replace the filter element in time. Water purifiers are different from ordinary household appliances. After purchase, they cannot be done once and for all. Instead, the internal filter element needs to be cleaned or replaced on a regular basis. Because no matter what kind of material is used, the filter element will absorb a lot of organic matter after a period of work, and it is easy to become a breeding ground for bacteria.
1. Avoid direct sunlight. No matter what kind of water treatment machine, please avoid direct sunlight during use, because sunlight will breed blue algae. The water purifier must be properly protected. If it must be placed on a balcony or a place where it may be exposed to direct sunlight, it is recommended to build a shade cover or baffle near the water purifier, which will prevent algae.
2. Keep away from heat sources. If the water purifier is too close to the water heater, long-term baking will affect the life of the plastic parts. After installation, the users who used the bottled water make their own bottled water, so that drinking water is safer, more convenient and cost-effective. But here we should pay attention: First, drink often to ensure the water quality is fresh. The second is to clean the bucket with the first effluent before water production.
After the above introduction, everyone knows what to pay attention to when using the water purifier, right? There is a big difference between a water purifier and a water filter in terms of working principle and price. You can buy it according to your actual economic situation.
