ABSTRACT:
There is disclosed a device adapted to provide water purified to human consumption level, and arranged for connection to a water supply. The device comprises a water purifier, a container for purified water and connections between the water purifier and the purified water container, The water purifier includes a filtering system that removes particles present in water to be purified as well as any undesirable adsorbable material, The filtering system is in fluid communication with the water supply on the one hand, and the container, on the other hand. The device also includes an ozone generator and a venturi for injecting ozone into filtered water downstream of the filtering system, but before introduction of the purified water into the container. A pump is arranged to draw water from the water supply, to feed same to the filtering system, and thereafter to the container. The container includes a bottle adapter imperviously mounted on the container and adapted for introducing purified water into the container as well as for recycling purified water to the water purifier, back to said container. An ozone destruction unit is provided to remove excess ozone that may escape from the purified water and controls are provided to operate the device.
