Common RO Repair Problems We Fix in Delhi

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does RO repair cost in Delhi?
RO water purifier repair in Delhi starts from ₹199 for minor fixes. Filter change costs ₹300–₹800 depending on filter type. Membrane replacement costs ₹800–₹1,800. Pump repair or replacement costs ₹500–₹1,500. Annual maintenance contract (AMC) typically costs ₹1,500–₹2,500 per year and covers all filter changes and service visits.
How often should RO filters be changed in Delhi?
In Delhi, due to high TDS water, filters need more frequent changes. Sediment filter (PP filter): every 3–4 months. Carbon block filter: every 4–6 months. RO membrane: every 18–24 months. UV lamp: every 12 months. Post-carbon filter: every 6 months. Ignoring filter changes leads to contaminated water and motor damage.
What does TDS level in RO water mean?
TDS (Total Dissolved Solids) measures the amount of dissolved minerals in water. Delhi tap water typically has TDS of 300–700 ppm. RO purified water should have TDS between 50–150 ppm for best taste and health. TDS below 25 ppm is too pure and strips essential minerals — a TDS controller or mineralizer is recommended.
Why is water coming slowly from my RO purifier?
Slow water flow from an RO purifier is caused by: clogged pre-filters (most common), a worn-out RO membrane, low water inlet pressure (below 40 psi), a faulty booster pump, or a full storage tank. A technician can diagnose the exact cause in 30 minutes.
Why does my RO water taste bad or smell strange?
Bad taste or smell in RO water is usually caused by an expired carbon filter, bacterial growth inside the tank, or a degraded RO membrane. Flush the system thoroughly and replace the carbon filters. If the problem persists, the storage tank may need sanitisation.
Which RO brands do technicians in Delhi repair?
Our directory includes technicians who repair Kent, Aquaguard, Pureit (HUL), Livpure, A.O. Smith, Blue Star, Eureka Forbes, TATA Swach, Zero B, and all other RO water purifier brands.
Can an RO technician install a new purifier at home?
Yes. RO installation typically takes 1–2 hours. The technician will mount the unit under the sink or on the wall, connect to the water supply, set up the drain line, and test water quality. Standard installation charges range from ₹300–₹600.
What is the difference between RO, UV, and UF purification?
RO (Reverse Osmosis) removes dissolved salts, heavy metals, and most bacteria — best for high TDS water. UV (Ultraviolet) kills bacteria and viruses but does not reduce TDS. UF (Ultrafiltration) removes bacteria and some particles without electricity. Most modern purifiers combine RO+UV+UF for complete purification.
Is it normal for RO to waste a lot of water?
Traditional RO systems waste 3 litres of water for every 1 litre purified. Modern high-recovery RO systems waste only 1–1.5 litres per litre. If your RO wastes excessive water, the membrane may be damaged or the reject ratio may need adjustment — a technician can fix this.
