The UV-light for further purification has also been placed at the bottom of this storage tank so that the purified water remains clean.

The RO is the third stage, which Xiaomi claims will remove all heavy metals, scales, and organic matter with a filtration precision of 0.0001 micron.

Xiaomi is also applying a DIY or Do it yourself approach with the Mi Smart Water Purifier. The device will connect to the Mi Home app and show users the TDS (Total Dissolved Solids) levels in the water after purification as well as the life of each filter. Users will be able to purchase the filters and replace these on their own. This is in contrast to existing water purifiers, where the concerned company has to send a service personnel to replace the filters after a year or so.
