The Contaminants That Propur ProOne G2.0 Filter Element Removes

This is what is impressive about the Propur.

An independent lab tested and showed the following result that the filter removes all or almost all:

• volatile and semi-volatile organic contaminants
• pesticides
• heavy metals
• disinfectants
• inorganic non-metallic contaminants (including fluoride, chlorine, and chloramine)
• bacteria and viruses
• herbicides
• microplastics – very small pieces of plastic that pollute the environment
• microcystins – a class of toxins produced by certain freshwater blue-green algae
• radiological contaminants
• blue-green algae (parasites)
• pharmaceuticals

It is tested that it removes 100% of lead. – That’s very impressive!

Well, the filter reduces calcium about 81%, but it does not remove magnesium and only 2.5% of potassium.

So the nutritional value of the water remains intact.

And it also helps in removing bad tastes and odors making the water great!

Disadvantages

Pro Pur Countertop Water Filter System With Promax

Single Point Filtration

The countertop water filter only filters the water that flows through the tap they are installed on

Aesthetic Considerations

The filter sits on the kitchen sink.

Some might not like it.

They might prefer an under-sink filter instead.

Size

Bigger in size thus requires more space.

Expensive

Not that affordable.

Pro Pur Under Counter Water Filter System With Promax

You Must Check If a Tap Is Provided

Since the water comes from the external tap, if you do not get a tap provided with it you have to but it separately.

You cannot use the kitchen tap.

This may cause extra costs.

Fixed Setting

It only filters the water at the water outlet where it was installed.

If you need filtered water in the shower, then you have to install there separately.

This might cost extra.

Maintenance

You cannot keep the sink underneath wet.

You have to make sure that it is dry.

Must avoid the dirt or water leakage from the sink.

If Not Installed Properly

If it is not installed properly, issues like wastage of water drain may cause problems in the purifier.

So you must call a technician to connect the drainpipe of the water purifier to the sink drain pipe.

Again, you must make sure that the faucet hole is provided or else you have to take the burden of creating an alternate hole during installation.

Pro Pur Traveler

Might Get Rust

Although it’s supposed to be stainless steel, the lid might begin to get rust after a few months.

Filter Process Is Slow

Some might find the filter slow.

Some say it does not drain the water completely.

Pro Pur Nomad

Leaked Filter

The filter might get leaked after using it for a few months.

Water Might Have Some Odor

The water might not taste so good after some use.

Although these complaints are infrequent.

How Does The Pro Pur Water Filtration System Work?

The system consists of two containers—upper and lower.

The filters are on the upper part.

Customers can choose according to their requirements.

The filtration capacities are functional.

No add-on filters required.

People are praising their ease of maintenance.

These are portable and come with optional upgrades.

The contaminants like chlorine, aluminum, etc. are correctly filtered.

Again the nutritional value of water is retained since the filtration system does not remove the necessary magnesium and potassium from water.

People are complaining about the high price of the products.

Anyways, the Pro Pur products are a mixture of pros and cons.

The choice is in the customer’s hand which one they prefer.
