In the past few years, there were many people who bought water purifiers, and merchants were touting how good the water purifiers were, and even advertised that after installing the water purifiers, tap water could be drunk directly.
These are all business routines, and they are all selling anxiety. In fact, you can drink tap water when you boil it, and the water purifier is installed to have a good taste and improve the taste of life.
Now that the water purifier has "fallen off the altar" and is gradually being left out in the cold, there are fewer and fewer people installing water purifiers. I know a boss who sells water purifiers, and he told me about five disadvantages of water purifiers.
First, the installation and maintenance is troublesome
The water purifier should be installed and repaired by professionals, and there is no way to install and repair it yourself, and it is easy to leak and install it incorrectly.
Second, the cost of replacing the filter element is high
It is not recommended to buy a water purifier, the filter element is too expensive, change the tube once, you can buy a new water purifier, you need to replace it frequently, the price is too high, a filter element is a few hundred yuan, it is better to buy pure water and mineral water to drink.
In my opinion, direct bottled water is the most trouble-free, maintenance-free, quality guaranteed, and low price.
Third, it is not practical
Unless the tap water quality in your home is very poor, there is no need to install a water purifier. I've been boiling water for decades with tap water for cooking, and I've had no problems. I think it's better to drink boiled plain water. The water purifier is at most to deodorize the water and improve the taste, which has no effect.
The main thing is that it is not practical. Tap water is also not toxic, why a water purifier?
Fourth, waste of water
If the wastewater cannot be reused, it can only be discharged from the sewer pipe, wasting water resources.
It does cost a lot of water to use a water purifier, and a pot of clean water will produce three to four pots of wastewater. In the past, my family used to use about 20 yuan a month for water, but since I used a water purifier, it is about 40 yuan a month.
Fifth, the routine is deep
There are hundreds to thousands of water purifiers on the market, and the quality is uneven, and it is not that the more expensive the price, the better. The water purifier has a deep routine, and the entry threshold itself is very low, all of which are processed and assembled by the foundry, and then use their own accessories to lure you into the pit with a cheap price, and then make money for your accessories. What is not plugged in, no waste water, wipe it, can drink directly, isn't this an ultrafiltration machine? Isn't the ultrafiltration machine a trick for people to drink directly? Anyway, people will bet that you will drink tap water.
I don't think you should blindly follow the trend to install water purifiers, the tap water is up to the national drinking standards, and there is no need to spend thousands of dollars to buy a water purifier.
