Pureit Eco Water Saver Mineral RO+UV+MF Water Purifier
Pureit Eco Water Saver Mineral RO+UV+MF Water Purifier Review
Over the years, multi-stage RO purifiers have become very popular. This popularity can largely be attributed to their ability to treat almost all sources of drinking water.
But there is one big disadvantage of using RO purifiers. The biggest drawback is, one that makes them look like villains, they waste a lot of water. You’ll be shocked to know that ordinary ROs can waste as much as 75% of the input water.
Drinking water is a scarce natural resource, and such a huge wastage of drinking water is a cause of great concern.
HUL Pureit recently launched a new RO purifier ‘Eco Water Saver Mineral’. Ranked high in our latest list of best water purifiers for homes, this RO water purifier comes with some unique features.
As the name suggests, this water purifier gives you pure and sweet RO-purified water, with one of the highest water savings.
The Eco Water Saver minimizes water wastage by recovering up to 60% of water. Normal RO purifiers recover only 25-30% water. This means the Eco Water Saver from HUL Pureit reduces water wastage by over 100%.

Feature Review
7-Stage Purification with RO+UV+MF
Pureit Eco Water Saver features an advanced 7-stage RO+ UV+MF purification that removes harmful viruses, bacteria, chemicals, and heavy metals. This gives you a 100% guarantee of clean and safe water.
Pureit Eco Water Saver is designed to treat multiple water sources be it Borewell, Tanker or Tap water.
Worried about de-mineralized water? Worry not, because this water purifier comes with a mineral cartridge. The mineral cartridge enriches the purified water with essential minerals like calcium and magnesium.
Advanced Filter Change Alerts and Auto Shut-off
Like most RO water purifiers from Pureit, the Eco Water Saver also features an advanced alert mechanism. The purifier automatically alerts you 15 days before the life of Germkill Kit (filters & membrane) gets over.
The purifier also features an intelligent Auto Shut-off mechanism. This advanced feature automatically stops the water purification if the Germkill Kit (filters) is not changed in time. This ensures 100% purity of the water at all times.
Storage and Purification Capacity
Pureit Eco Water Saver features a large, well not large but very large, storage tank of 10-litres. A large storage tank comes in very handy in the absence of electricity as it stores sufficient water to meet the daily drinking water requirements of your family.
This large storage tank is complemented by a high-speed purification of up to 24 litres per hour. This is probably the highest among the leading RO purifiers.
Pureit Eco Water Saver only takes about 30 minutes to fill an empty storage tank. That’s quite quick if we keep in mind the big size of the storage tank.
“A big storage tank and high purification capacity make it an ideal purifier for even big joint families.“
Design Review
Pureit Eco Water Saver features a shiny black exterior with a very detailed and elaborate LED panel.
The front-facing LED panel consists of 4 LED indicators that lend a sophisticated look. The LED indicators provide real-time alerts when the tank is full, when the filters need to be replaced, or when there is an electrical fault in the purifier.
The size looks a little bulky, but that is understandable as it features a large storage tank.
While the design may not be as attractive as the Pureit Copper Plus, it is still visually appealing and functionally brilliant.
“Pureit Eco Water Saver is visually appealing and functionally brilliant.“
Water Recovery Rate
There is a valid reason why this purifier is called ‘Eco Water Saver’.
Let’s see why.
You must have heard that ‘RO purifiers waste a lot of water.” Yes, that’s true, because most ordinary RO purifiers feature a recovery rate of just 20-25%.
This means, for every 1 litre of purified water, an ordinary RO would produce nearly 3 litres of wastewater.
Shocked? Yes, that’s the unfortunate truth.
HUL Pureit, with the latest Eco Water Saver Mineral, has made great technological advancements by increasing the recovery rate to up to 60%.
This purifier is powered with Eco Recovery™ Technology that minimizes the reject water to less than 1 glass for every glass of purified water compared to ROs that waste up to 3 glasses.
If you are a family of 5 members and every member consumes 2 litres of purified water daily then Pureit Eco can save nearly 80 glasses (glass quantity of 200 ml) of water daily.
This RO purifier is a great choice not only for homes facing water shortage but for anyone and everyone who considers saving water as their duty.
“Pureit Eco Water Saver features a high recovery rate of approximately 60%. That is almost three times the usual RO purifiers.“
Pureit Eco Water Saver – Maintenance Cost
We contacted the Pureit team, this is what they have to say on AMC for RO “Pureit doesn’t operate on an AMC model. We believe in providing the utmost transparency to consumers by necessitating a filter change only when the filters have run past their tested life. Electrical failures are rare and hence we don’t offer an AMC, as the fixed cost of an AMC can become very high. We ask consumers to change & pay for filters only when the filters have exhausted their life.”
Filter change schedule?
The filters have a long life of 260 pumping hours. This means under normal test conditions, the device will give 6000 litres of purified water before displaying a filter change alert. Unlike other brands, Pureit filters are not mandated to be changed based on time or AMC. However, the filter change is directly dependent on the usage and consumption of water.
Assuming a family size of 5 with an average consumption of 10 litres per day (2L consumption/member), the device will run for 520 days* i.e. 18 months.
* Purification capacity is 24 litres/hour, which means the purifier would take roughly 30 minutes to produce 10 litres of purified water.
Cost of GKK (GermKill Kit or Filter Kit) – Rs. 4500 + Rs. 300 for delivery & installation.
So, the maintenance cost for Pureit Eco Water Saver RO over 18 months is Rs. 4,800 approximately.
“The average annual maintenance cost of Pureit Eco Water Saver is appx. Rs. 3,200.“

I want to install at Alibag, Raigad District, Maharashtra-402209. Please contact me.
The Pureit Eco water purifier is not satisfactory in water taste, it tastes like tap water. Children feel like they are drinking tap water.
My Pureit water saver took 80 minutes to fill 10 ltrs. And only after 5 months, it indicates changing GKK. GKK cost is 5000……oh my God….it is too much to spend 5000 for 5 months.
