Looking at a water purifier with cheap maintenance plans. My Aquaguard AMC is due next month and balked at prices of service. Aquaguard is charging Rs 2400 for 1 year, Rs3800 for 2 years and something like Rs5700 for 3 years. This is like half the cost or more for the unit itself. I think I paid 4x times the unit cost till now in AMC charges.
The technician hardly does anything besides cleaning the filters, the two times he visits in a year. He changes the filters just once a year when he feels like it.
I saw a lot of videos on youtube, and seems the original company product filters of Aquaguard cost upwards of Rs 450 for a dual filter cartridge. Don't know the price of carbon block, but its probably around 900.
Looking at costs of original filter and carbon block, amc looks way too costly to me since they don't even change the filters that much. If they changed the filters 4 times a year it would still cost them just Rs 1800 tops since the carbon filter last a long time like 2-3 years.
Searched on Amazon and could not find original Aquaguard filters. The nameless ones, cost 250 for just the 5 micron filter. Carbon block is around 1k. Problem is quality and taste of water. I've seen Amazon and YT reviews saying water does not taste that good from these cheap filters.
Where can I find original Aquaguard filters online?
