FINEEGG Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 Hello all, I was wondering, that for long term residents of Bangkok, what does one do for drinking water, mineral water bottles? Or like in Hong Kong or Singapore, can one use a water purifier that's attached to the kitchen tap, is the tap water good enough for that? Thank you!

Ratakhun Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 I've been using a purifier connecting the kitchen's tap and for many years now and I can say I haven't gotten sick or anything from it. It's safe if you are going with a purifier, but make sure you are using a decent purifier though, just for good measures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smileplur Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 I also use a purifier that I bought at Big C. The woman and I have never had a problem. The water tastes clean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rics21 Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 Lots of water purifier these days even those with the UV filter and stuffs. Sent from my XT910 using Thaivisa Connect App Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seismic Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 I have a reverse osmosis unit with filters, the water looks and tastes fine. Or you could go with a non-reverse osmosis unit but make sure it has a UV filter as well. Just stay away from anything that is made by Fujika, i have had way too many problems with that company's products. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FINEEGG Posted September 22, 2012 Author Share Posted September 22, 2012 Thanks so much for the help everyone, much appreciated! 1) So I should go in for a reverse osmosis unit with UV filters, is that combination the best? 2) What's the cost in Thai Baht for a good quality unit? Thanks you again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks you again! Mine cost around 10k. Pure - classic UV. It is sold in the mall, home pro, etc. They call us yearly to change the filters n stuff.

thaigold Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 (edited) Years ago, if you drank the BKK water, you'de get Ho Chi Minh's revenge within 24-hours. Now BKK water is as safe as Los Angeles juice.. Edited September 23, 2012 by thaigold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
