Hi, Is water purifier safe? Some people say drinking water from purifier is not safe and it leads serious illness in longer term. They also suggest that boil the water and drink, which is much safer than water from purifier. Could someone clarify?

Suggestion: I do not think Boiling is better than Water Purifiers. Boiling do not completely make water clean and safe to drink . It only kills bacteria but not the dust. Boiling is an old way which is used in old days when there was no other way. Now these days there are so many Water Filters, Portable Water Filter available in the market which are better than than Boiling. But always choose best Water Filters which actually gives Pure and clean water. I recommend Pureit Drinking Water Filter .
