Second, choose according to the installation method
Since the practical environment is not used, you should consider what kind of installation method is suitable before purchasing a water purifier. This can prevent the purchased water purifier from being unsuitable for home use, and can also improve the user experience to a greater extent. From the perspective of installation, there are mainly the following.
1. Front-mounted water purifier
The front-mounted water purifier is usually installed in the front of the inlet pipe, so this water purifier can not only provide drinking water, but also provide water for water heaters, washing machines, etc., and can effectively filter out impurities such as rust and sediment . This type of water purifier is easy to install, but the purification capacity is average.
2. Faucet type water purifier
The faucet type water purifier is to install a water purification device on the faucet, so as to effectively filter out the large molecular particles in the tap water and achieve a water purification purpose. This type of water purifier is also more convenient to install, but the filtering effect is general and cannot meet the standard for direct drinking
3. Desktop water purifier
The desktop water purifier is the water purifier placed on the kitchen cabinet. It only needs to be connected with the faucet during installation without additional modification of the water inlet pipe. Moreover, desktop water purifiers generally have a multi-layer filtration system, so the filtration effect is better, and they can be directly drunk.
However, because it needs to be placed on the cabinet, it is required to leave a certain area on the kitchen countertop, so as to avoid buying it and having no place to put it. Secondly, desktop water purifiers also have water storage buckets, which should be cleaned regularly to avoid secondary pollution.
4. Under-kitchen water purifier
That is, the water purifier installed in the cabinet under the faucet. Usually this water purifier has also undergone multiple filtration technology, which can effectively filter out most impurities in the tap water. It has strong purification ability for water quality and can be directly consumed. However, the internal filter element needs to be replaced regularly to avoid weakening the filtering effect.
【Shopping suggestions】
The difference in installation method is not only related to the area of the kitchen space, but also the filtering effect of the water quality is not the same. From the perspective of space area, it is recommended to choose a front-mounted water purifier and a faucet-type water purifier. From the filtering effect, it is recommended to choose a kitchen-type water purifier and a desktop water purifier.
