ADVANCED FILTRATION TECH: RO VS. NANO

When selecting a water purifier, understanding the difference between filtration technologies is crucial. Two of the most advanced options available are Reverse Osmosis (RO) and Nanofiltration (NF).

Reverse Osmosis (RO) automatically strips your water of all harmful impurities such as rust, micro-organisms, lead, fluoride, odors, and chlorine while also implementing a mineralizer to add back critical healthy minerals. CUCKOO’s patented “Natural” filter enhances the process by restoring essential minerals, ensuring water that is not only clean but also fresh-tasting.

Nanofiltration (NF) automatically removes harmful impurities such as rust, micro-organisms, lead, fluoride, odors, and chlorine. Powered by NASA technology, NF delivers clean, mineral-rich water with its tankless, direct-flow purification—no waste, just pure efficiency. It’s a hygienic, eco-friendly solution trusted worldwide.

CUCKOO offers a range of products that fit your needs. Understanding the difference between RO and NF filtrations can help you make the best choice for your home, ensuring that your drinking water is suitable for consumption while also enriched with essential minerals.
