Homemade UV + UF (4 stage) water purifier for tap water- very effective & cheap
This is video tutorial to make very effective & cheap 4 stage water purification system to purify municipal water (tap water). You can also add pre- filter as 5th stage, this will increase life of other filters. Pre- filter can be easily clean.
You can find all the material at local spare part shop. Or you can purchase it online using links at the end.
I recommend to purchase the material from local store because prices are little high online.

1x Sediment filter (standard 12 inch filter)
1x Carbon filter (standard 12 inch filter)
1x UF Membrane
1x UV barrel / bowl 8”
1x UV lamp 11 watt (Philips make)
