Methods and methods of purification (filtration) of water in a private home, useful advice

Everyone knows from childhood that water is a source of life. Unfortunately, the water to which we now have unhindered access requires compulsory purification. Ways of water purification are very different: very simple, proven by generations and time, and modern, representing a multistage filters for water purification. Everything depends on the source of the water supply system at home.

Filtration of water in a country house

The main three sources of water supply to the household plot:

  • this well,
  • well,
  • centralized water supply.

All three sources do not guarantee the availability of water in them that is usable without cleaning. Before buying the system for filtration, it is necessary to make certain analyzes that will show which components and in what quantities are contained in the liquid. Then, having carefully read the result, you can go and choose the appropriate system. If the composition of microelements is complex and diverse, one filter can not cope with cleaning and do not give water of proper quality. In such cases, install mixed filtration systems.

Water purification systems at home are created from filters connected in a certain sequence. Each layer of the filter eliminates the specific type of trace elements. Therefore, before the final choice of the filtration system, all must be carefully considered.

The requirement for a system that must be observed without fail: the productivity equal to the volume of the fluid consumed by all tenants is neither more nor less.

Methods of water purification - installation of stations for high-quality cleaning

Many manufacturing companies advise using whole stations for the most high-quality filtration. They are located permanently, in separate premises, exactly where the water is brought to the building. They are connected to the mains. Installation of such a system will save water from:

  • turbidity
  • excessive rigidity
  • excess iron
  • heavy smell of hydrogen sulphide
  • microorganisms.

Drawing conclusions, it should be emphasized that in order to select the most highly efficient and cost-effective filter cleaning system, the exact consumed amount of liquid is calculated first by all the tenants of the house, then the water from the source is given for certain analyzes to find out exactly what and how much of the water needs to be removed and that how many to add, in other words, to determine what filters and with what fillers are necessary for the purification of this water.

Based on the basic rules of choice, the buyer will receive not only the maximum effect from the system, but will preserve the health of the organism to himself and his loved ones.

Water purification system according to the principle of reverse osmosis

Filter systems for water purification are different:

two-stage
  three-stage
  multistage.

All of them are endowed with reverse osmosis.

Multistage filters are recognized as the most expensive and most cost-effective. They are equipped with automation and computer control. The system fully controls

  • water quality,
  • necessary pressure,
  • washing the membrane,
  • set in a container,
  • and also signals the need to replace the cartridge.

A filter with three protection stages specializes in cleaning water from impurities larger than 5 microns - clay, sand, rust and so on. The first layer of coal present removes chlorine and other elements. Cleaning coal in briquettes gives the best, the deepest result of filtration.

The presence of a second layer in the form of a back osmotic membrane ensures the elimination of 99% of existing impurities, viruses and bacteria. Such a membrane is arranged as follows: its "holes" are of this size and shape, which allows only water molecules to pass through. The molecules of other microelements (metals, salts, iron) have a different shape and size, so they do not pass through the membrane, but settle on it.

The final stage of purification is a layer of granular, coconut, activated carbon. Excellent removes foreign odor and improves taste.

Filtration of drinking water in the filter-pitcher

In the event that water is supplied from the centralized water supply system, it is pre-cleaned at the site of its extraction and treatment with disinfectants. In this case, you can resort to less serious methods of filtering the water intended for drinking, such as those usually used by residents of urban apartments.

Before buying a water filter, it is necessary to calculate the exact amount of purified liquid and how many people will be consumed. For example, one person will have enough of a filter pitcher. This is a fairly simple design that cleans the water well. Cartridges in it easily change. One is enough for cleaning up to 400 liters of water.

The volumes of the jug are different. The maximum reaches 3 liters. The main positive point of such filters is that it does not need to be connected to a centralized water supply system.

It is enough to pour the liquid into a container with a filter and wait for a while. The water will seep through the filter and enter the bottom of the tank.

Filtration of water - nozzles for the crane

There are a variety of filters presented in the form of nozzles, put on the tap of the water pipe. They put on only when there is a need. The volume of water to be purified per minute is approximately 1 glass. This is the main disadvantage of such a filter - the process is very slow, the volume of purified water per unit of time is very small.

If you want to avoid problems with filter nozzles, experts advise you to buy a stationary filter that is attached directly to a water pipe. This cleaning option is most often used and in demand. In specialized stores, products of this kind are presented quite widely. You can choose products from different manufacturers, most suitable for their characteristics and cost.

The difference between the filters from each other is as follows:

  • productivity and effectiveness of purification
  • methods of purification
  • type of material intended for cleaning
  • efficiency
  • external characteristics.

Filters of this type well purify water of all kinds of impurities and most importantly chlorine. For one minute, approximately 3 liters of water are cleared. The quality of this filter is designed to clean approximately 15,000 liters.
