Useful information ! Thanks
From my experience of using RO filter (IonExchange) for several years:
- The life of the main filter (which is the costliest - around Rs 3000) depends on the TDS count of the water that is flowing in. In our apartment the TDS initially was around 500 and we had to change the filter almost once in a year.
- Need to be careful with the after sales service provided by IonExchange. We didnt have an annual contract which they were forcing. You can buy a TDS measuring meter and check for yourself the TDS count, to decide when to change the main filter. This is more effective than relying on IonExchang service. The TDS of the treated water should be around 40
