Homemade UV + UF (4 stage) water purifier for tap water- very effective & cheap
Вставка
- Опубліковано 12 вер 2024
- This is video tutorial to make very effective & cheap 4 stage water purification system to purify municipal water (tap water). You can also add pre- filter as 5th stage, this will increase life of other filters. Pre- filter can be easily clean.
You can find all the material at local spare part shop. Or you can purchase it online using links at the end.
I recommend to purchase the material from local store because prices are little high online.
Materials:-
1x Sediment filter (standard 12 inch filter)
1x Carbon filter (standard 12 inch filter)
1x UF Membrane
1x UV barrel / bowl 8”
1x UV lamp 11 watt (Philips make)
1x UV Choke / adapter 220v AC
1x Teflon tape
6x Elbow (1 side push fit & 1 side threaded)
3x I-connector
12x Push fitting locks
4x C-Clamps
4x X-Clamps (1 side large and 1 side small)
4x 1” Nut bolt
10 feet RO filter Pipe
Double sided tape
2-3” piece of ½” water tube (pipe)
23 x 15 cm piece of plywood
1x Cooler pump (optional)
Note : replace the filters ( sediment, carbon & UF) every 12-18 months based on water uses. Do not drink 1st 10 liters of water during 1st use as it may contain residual dirt etc.

@@howtoStuti give me rply papaa
First of all Thank you dilse as your video make me believe that it's also possible. I was worried after seeing those heavy rated water purifiers available at market. But now with your video guidance i had assembled a purifier and from last 9 months it's running successfully. Thank you once again.
Hello. I have a query. Does it make water taste better ?
I made the purifier and it is working absolutely fine. it is also removing chlorine test from municipal corporation water and improving test of water. thank you soo much.
I think this is by far one of the best method of diy drinking water filter i found on youtube.. uf+uv sytem=perfect. thank you sir i see you're very knowledgable in these subject.
Absolutely Brilliant job... thanks for posting to help other DIYers too...Keep up ur great spirits of sharing ur knowledge..!!
Excellent stuti. My uv filter aquasure brand is under repair for pas15 days. Service men not interested in repairing nor responding to calls. Got fed up. Saw your post now. Excellent inspiration to try it out myself.
I very much appreciate your dear you are so kind and so patiently replying to all questions.God bless you...amin...and it will go and help in many millions of life with cheap pure water...
+Arctic Circle thanks
howto: Stuti /You are most welcome ma'am
The video was a worth watching, Excellent presentation!
Hardik Mevada bhi ye jo aap logo ne banaya he uska waste water kaha jata he
isme waste water nahi niklta h pura water purify ho jata h.
Raja babu, Hardiik isn't the uploader or creator!
in home use/ retail systems only RO type does _susu_
agar video dekha hai tou samjh paoge, sab connect karne ke baad sirf ek inlet aur ek outlet

@@rajapatel-hh2vb esme waste water nahi niklta,sirf kachra chhan aur bacteria mar jata hai.
Definitely this is the best video showing how assemble a UV UF purifier, but only challenge here is getting genuine and trust-able parts.
Amazing video , find this useful video after so many searches. Thank you so much 😀😀😀
Hi mam
Pani ki tanki teres par he to kya muje cooler motor ki jarurat he ya fir chalega?
Please mam tell me..
Nice way you have presented and also you have given the links for the material .Thank you .
thanks for appreciation, i suggest you to purchase the material from local spare part shop if you want to make the same. cost of materials are bit higher online.
UF membrane or sponge - when i purchased the UF membrane from the link you given for 150/-, cut opened - found a sponge in the name of UF membrane. You should be ultra cautious when making these great videos.
Alkaline and mineral catridge ko add
Kah kar sakte hatke side me agle vid me bataye ,by the wy,
Nic presentation sort and simple
स्तुति जी आपकी विडियो मेरे लिए बहुत काम आई मैंने भी MCD Water supply के पानी को purify करने के लिए 4 stage purifier बनाया है आज, लेकिन मुझे shopkeeper ने बताया कि UF लगाने का कोई fayda नही ऊसमे फोम hota है बस I
मुझे stainless steel का UV बैरल खरीदना है
ओर आच्छे क्वालिटी के फ़िल्टर कुछ filters का नाम बता दो जो सस्ते मिले ओर बड़िया वर्क करेंआई
800 rupay की लागत लगी मैंने खुद भागीरथ प्लेस मार्केट , चाँदनी चौक से सारा समान खरीदा
+Dhiraj Kumar i am verry happy ki video aapke use aya. ajkal market me saste form wale UF mambrane arahe h. Jisse kuch khas fayda nahi hota. Real UF mambrane bacteria removal ka kaam krta h.
Thank you. I loved the idea of using a sub pump . Thanks.
Hi, it was a Good Presentation, easily understanding, Thanks for your effort I will try this for my home...
where did you got the parts
Most useful and to save money to all if they make themselves
Very well described and helpful as total quantity of individual parts written.
Good project, I would like to comment on some points
1. Uf filters are advertised for delivering 99.99% of pathogen removal, I think there is no need for UV ?
2. Filtering lot of dirty water will get your filter to saturation in no time, this kind of filters are used for clean water, for raw water you need a cleanable filter with backwash.
+Seif Eddine B yes UF removes pathagens but there are still other viruses which are not removed by UF. Also there are lots of duplicate UF mamberane available in market which are not as much effective hance UV is used for
extra protection.
2. I add the pre filter before this filter. Whicg can be celan manually. I posted pre filter video saperatly.
Thanks for feed back
Useful & low budget furifier.Thanks.
Great idea, I think the design is what most commercial 4 stage filtration systems use, but for a lot more money than this DIY setup. But I have serious reservations about your electrical work. The way you've connected the power supply to the mains is VERY DANGEROUS and ILLEGAL in most countries !!!!! The flimsy electrical connections shown in this video where wires were twisted together, then electrical tape wrapped around them, could result in serious electric shock or death to anyone using this water filter. If unsure how to do the electrical work safely, ask an electrician.
Very simple presentation. Everyone can understand easly. May i know the difference between UF Filter and RO Membrane. Thanks in advance !!!
thank you!!! there are several differences between them but the main difference is -
UF filter can pass salts dissolved in the water along with the water molecules .it can kill and remove bacteria and viruses from the water.
RO membrane kills bacteria and viruses and removes dissolved salts from the water.It allows only water to pass through it.that is why the water we get at the outlet of RO is slightly bitter.
hope this help.
Great job Madam. My salutes to your efforts
Nice work. I have few questions,
1) Is there any waste water drain in ur setup ? if so where is that ?
2) Instead of using DC motor can I connect the inlet to the tap directly ? If yes, How will the system work. Will the system keep purifying the incoming water until I close the tap ?
This filter doesnt have RO Mamberen hance no waste water.
Whole water will be filtered
@@howtoStuti Thank you. What abt the second question ?
Very good job done thanks for sharing this information and demonstration
Dear Sir / Madam You make a very good UV UF filter. I m planning to make it my home, but I have one doubt, मेरे घर के पानी मे कई बार झाग और बदबू आती है, क्या ये फ़िल्टर झाग ओर बदबू दूर कर पायेगा, या मुझे इसमे झाग बदबू दूर करने के लिए कोई और फ़िल्टर इसमे लगाना पड़ेगा ।
This is a very nice solution. Thanks for posting. Could you please provide the Amazon/Ebay link for the motor you have shown in the video ? Also, is the filtered water directly drinkable without boiling ?
The water should be potable directly after going through this purifier. The first two filters will remove particulates like heavy metals and this water is considered "filtered" (almost safe to drink). Make sure you use a GAC or RO carbon filter to remove nasty man-made chemicals like PFOAs [2]. The UF and UV steps are considered "purifiers" or "disinfectants" which kills any remaining bacteria or viruses [1]. The addition of the UV light makes this purifying very robust since UF filters can filter down to 0.001 microns [2]. For reference, the COVID-19 virus is about 0.12 microns across.

Thanx for this video. I'll try to make one for my rain water .
I'm confused why you include an ro filter/membrane link for Amazon since you didn't utilize an RO membrane in your video or your list of materials. Did you just decide to throw that in for good measure? Also does that Ultra filter require you to back flush it periodically?
Hello. Super video! 1st ever diy on water purifier.which branded purifier in the market do you suggest to buy our tds is around 150 to 200.
Just use any UF+UV system there is no need for RO.
OK Thanks...I will check my home filter
Thanku dear friend very USEFUL INFORMATION
Very good Job.Excellent
Very useful and money saving idea thanks a lot for sharing this video. Please let us know where can we buy these filters and attachments locally in Mumbai
Andheri East
Excellent presentation.
Wow you doing great job 😲👌✌👍
Thanks
Thanks for your effort ...
is it suitable for bore & well water ??
Should check first your bore or well water if your water tds is high above 2000 u need to install water softener before installing RO Ro gives good taste to water
can you tell me from where we can all these parts Ib Delhi and from which shop also please specify the shop name pls
nice video, is there any connection option if we install a 50 liters bladder tank
since you are using the UF and carbon filter, don't you think you need a backwash cycle to remove filtered contaminants, which may cause for filter chocking in future.
Brother Can You please Increase by Ratio , I mean I want to make Big one you have did Small. Can You please Tell the increased Sizes of that...
Good informative video.
It is excellent, great work.
Very easy to understand and make it at home after watching your video. I have also watched the Pre-filter video.
We use the borewell water and so could I request you to also give some tutorial on how to go about fixing RO mambrane and high pressure pump to the same and the link to buy. I am surly going to make one. Thank you.
Thanks Dear. i will try to upload tutorial to add RO membrane ASAP.
Hi Stuti, can I put the pre-carbon filter before sedentary filter and then run the water through UF and UV?? or is there a specific reason why sedentary filter is put first. Note that I have two stage pre filteration as well..
Excellent video. What is the cost for all the spare parts? Pls tell us
I am in chennai. Do you have any idea about the availability of spares in chennai?
Very excellent narration.
Thank you.
Nicely done. If the flow is slow after the latter filters, how about ditching the UV stage? Say, hav the prefilter, sediment, precarbon, and UF only. Let the output water drip into a tank. Or fit those RO pumps after the sediment filter (and before precarbon); then u can hav the UV at the end, and a flow restrictor after the UV.
so we dont need any motor to suck the water in the container or tank that we gonna put water?
Excellent diy video.. thank you
Excellent video. Can you please tell me more about the kit u used and uv kit
haa ek baat or kya tds down to nhi ho jayenge isse aap tds meter se chek krk bhi dikhao plzz
Very good job I will try this
how much ml water can be purified in a minute ?
Hi very nice presentation, may I ask how much PSI does your pump do?
Good job broo... Iam also working with this field
Up to how much TDS this type of puffier will work...? For municipal water this type of puffier is enough....why not RO puffier is required...?
thnx for video..
can u upload new video with mineral cartridge and ro set,if possible.
very effective and helpful tutorial
[though it wouldn't hurt to replace the music with voiceover, the fastforward text and video isn't easy for everyone to follow]
thank you for the links but on-line is all hotch-potch
could rather give a ball-park figure of materials cost back then?
especially with the optional accessories like 5th stage and this baby motor
and overall project cost/time??
thanks
Queries:
1] any disadvantage pf replace ply with a steel plate/ sheet cutt to same dimensions.
2] the connections of UV adapter looked dangerous as water may splash, any risk to humans or equipment or better to have them semi-closed in a plastic housing?
3] all our life we were told the chemical properties of activated charcoal wear out with tie and then that six months or N litres of water is what needs replacement. you mention 12 to 18 months for UF and carbon?
any technical stuff i as a common person do not know or understand?
dhanyawaad
+Spock * thanks for the suggetion. Here is the answer to your quarry-
1) you can use steel plastic or ply doent matter. I used ply bcoz i have ply.
2) connection to uv must be properly seald with electrical tape. Though There is no direct water contact to the joint, but coution must be taken.
3) considering small family of 2 -4 mamber and average consumption of water per person 12month -18 month is mention. As the water usage increases filters must be change in 6-9 month or 3000 ltrs of water
thank you so much Stuti ji/team for meticulously taking the time to respond.
noted and will definitely try this once i'm in hometown.
might use acrylic sheets (like in bathroom to keep tooth paste/brush) to try and 'box' the parts with the wiring or electical junctions/machines.
3000 litres.. with say 2 litres minimum for cooking/washing and two two litre for drinking for a family of 3-4 gives us 8-10litres per day.. so got it now. 300-365 days.
i assume it will depend on the size or brand of those parts too. thanks again
[the suggestion was, because even though i know english, as a lay person i often paused to read or rewind, as humans.. a voice.. even robot voice feels like hmm some ease or connection]
ye mcd water supply k liye best hai, pr ek baat batao, water tank ka pressure kaafi hai, ya motor pump lagana padega, qki kuch or dosto ne vdo banayee hai, jisme pump use .nahi kia, response plzzzz.
kya isme membrane add kr skte h without motor membrane kam krega k nhi? ??
Is the UV light tube retaining water long enough to ensure the water is properly sanitized? If water is flowing to fast through the light housing the water will not be properly sanitized. Have you checked your flow rate to see if it is within the recommended ranges for the UV housing?
+bpetnoi since we have already used uf for bacteria removal uv stage is providing additional protection. Yes water needs to be in contact of uv rays for enough time to kill the becteria.
Very good, nice demo.
Mere ghr k Pani m TDS lgbg 300,500 k bich m h to kya Kru agr m isme RO membrane lagau to Shi rhega TDs km krne k Liya ya nhi agr ha to konsi stage k bad lagau ro membrane plz tell m
Thats great.. have you tested the same for borewell water or do we need any additional steps to be done
+Raghavendra T this purifire is suitable for tap water ( low TDS water). borewell water contains high salts ( high TDS water). you need to add RO mambrane and high pressure pump for borewell water purification. you may use this purifier for borewell water but salts will get deposite inside the purifier resulting in low efficiancy or complete choking of purifier.
A paper filter at the start would protect rest of the filters , But still a great video...
very nice video. hi I am drinking water from bore well which have TDS very high. so please make video for us which gives Ro+UV+uf+TDs controller mineral water.
+Rupesh Phutane will try to upload asap
Sir kya ro + uf ko uv + uf me convert kiya ja sakta hai? Agar han to kya kya kharidna padega
Dear Mam,
If I know pump amps...then...How can l calculate Smps Amps..?
Truly well done Stuti! What is the final cost of making this?
+Ajeya Mehta it cost me around 1100. I purchased materials from local spare part shop. Cost of material is bit higher online.
Hi Stuti, do you have an email address? thanks!
Brilliant job... Thanks bro.🙏
Hi, Stuti great job done.Can you please let me know if I can convert RO into. UV and UF normal water purifier
Good way to get filtered water.
my doubt is that for municipal water less tds bellow 200 uf water purifier is cheaper but why people are buying costly uv water purifier instead of uf water purifier is there any advantage in uv purifier than uf water purifier? plz suggest
Hi Miss stuti, referred to tap water, what minimum pressure need to be able water flow to flow normal
Nice video about uv filter. 👍👍
Is there any need to add post carbon filter, if yes please tell where should it would be attached.
Sir Uv choke ko kent me Smps adaptor ko kaisa connect lagana hai
How much did you end up spending altogether on this project?
1000 ₹ (approx 15 USD)
Hi , where we get the materials from online, please send us the web address or link. We not able to find.
A better option for safe water.
I wanna make this for my school project but I've never done anything like this. Any tips? (I will keep making updates on what happens)
Superb..good job
Acche filters ke bare me bathayiye quality wise good
UV Chowk kyun nehi lagaya?
SMPS ki jarurat hogi ya nehi?
Reply please
👍👏 viedio. Do let us know where these parts are available. Interested guys can assemble one.
Superb video very informative
Kya hum uf ki jagah par mineral cartage bi use kar sakte hai ????
Can I add a mineral cartridge or alkaline cartridge along with this, to neutrilise the ph?. My well water is with 100 tds and 5.5ph
excellent ! where did you buy the filtters?, even the prefiltter please?, doest it filter sea water too?
links are given for purchasing materials. Sorry, can't say, haven't tried sea water yet.
hey when u say u can buy at local stores...what kind of local stores sell these items? also will this work without the solenoid valve or float switch?
Stuti....apane uv k bad uf q lagaya...uska kya kam hai??
Please add the link for the water pump. Does water pump cause lead leaching?
even i want to do this for some of the village chowkiey , where i can get the materials
What is total cost per package? Can provide a rough estimate, before shipment cost?
bro superb presentation...
Thanks for reply... Plz tell us sequence of all filters like precarbon, postcarbon, sediment, mineral, ro, and uv.I am confused in if uv is last or mineral is lastly used.???
ya sure.due to lack of time I am unable to post a separate video for RO , will try to upload it soon .till then hope this works for you.
the sequence follows as -
1 prefilter 2 sediment filter 3 carbon filter 4 UV Barrel 5 UF filter 6 RO 7 Mineral cartridge
Automatically pouring water at uf water purifiers filter through tap water.
Is it possible? videos on it.plz.
Excellent job
Thanks
Tku very much for this suggestion.. please reply for my earlier question...
this filter will not produce any waste water?
