(2) BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Drinking water, also known as potable water or improved drinking water, is water that is safe to drink or to use for food preparation, without risk of health problems. Globally, in 2015, 91% of people had access to water suitable for drinking. Nearly 4.2 billion had access to tap water while another 2.4 billion had access to wells or public taps. 1.8 billion people still use an unsafe drinking water source which may be contaminated by feces. This can result in infectious diarrhea such as cholera and typhoid among others (see: http://www.who.int/mediacentre/factsheets/fs391/en/ ).Water is essential for life. The amount of drinking water required is variable. It depends on physical activity, age, health issues, and environmental conditions. It is estimated that the average American drinks about one litre of water a day with 95% drinking less than three litres per day. For those working in a hot climate, up to 16 liters a day may be required. Water makes up about 60% of weight in men and 55% of weight in women (see: http://www.who.int/water_sanitation_health/dwq/nutrientschap3.pdf ). Purified water is water that has been mechanically filtered or processed to remove impurities and make it suitable for use. Distilled water has been the most common form of purified water, but, in recent years, water is more frequently purified by other processes including capacitive deionization, reverse osmosis, carbon filtering, microfiltration, ultra filtration, ultraviolet oxidation, or electrode ionization. Combinations of a number of these processes have come into use to produce water of such high purity that its trace contaminants are measured in parts per billion (ppb) or parts per trillion (ppt). In recent times, though market has been flooded by variety of stored water purification devices that can be placed at either overhead tanks or sumps where water will be stored and used for domestic purposes in the housing unit. Disadvantage of existing device is that they are very costly for both installation and maintenance. Also, there is no indication for the user regarding the quality of water that has been stored in his/her overhead tanks and sumps. The technology and membranes used for the purpose of purification is very costly and cannot be used by rural people. Also, in existing systems water purification is done at 1:2 ratios.

A number of different type of the devices and methods for water quality monitoring and purifications are available in the prior art. Prior art document, US6753186 discloses a water quality sampling system and method in which compact water impurity detector and monitoring units intended for domestic use are installed in a residential environment while detected values are electronically transmitted to a Central Monitoring Station (CMS), where customers can register and pay over the Internet. Using the impurity detector units, a portion of an incoming water stream is passed to an analyzer for detection of chlorine and various contaminants. The detector analyzes related data for determining the condition and extent of impurity in the water elements. This data is transmitted from a compact control box, known as the wall unit which translates the data for output to the CMS, located in another geographic locale, via a common data acquisition network. Another prior art document, WO2008075861 discloses an apparatus for measuring optimum water-quality and informing quality of water measures an amount of impurities of water, keeps to renew an optimum value by a lowest amount of the impurities until the present use, compares the optimum value with the present amount of the impurities measured in the water and informs the result. Yet another prior art document, US8256989 discloses a water-storing and water-cleaning system. The said system is designed in such a manner that it can be used irrespective of location. It is used, inter alia, in agriculture, in horticulture and in reforestation. Said system comprises a reservoir (2) that is filled with a porous material (3), into which the water is seeped. Yet another prior art document, US5646863 is directed to the detection of contaminants in water supplies of municipal utilities, industrial processes and surrounding water supply systems. Ground, surface or industrial water is pumped into a storage chamber and preconditioned for analysis. The water analysis structure is highly complex, including such elements as hydraulic module, fuzzy logic correlator and controller, neural network, etc., and does not represent a system that may be easily and effectively implemented within the household environment of a typical consumer for immediate tap water quality verification and which enables the consumer to receive feedback through a centralized monitoring station over a distributed computer network. Yet another prior art document, , WO 2005/123597 A1 discloses an aquitransistor which contains a multiplicity of perforated pipelines which are embedded in a matrix of porous materials. For filtering and storage purposes, water is guided with a hydrodynamic potential through the porous material of the aqua transistor before it flows into the perforated pipelines from where it is siphoned off by a pump device. Non-patent literature (NPL) prior art document discloses a survey of patents published in the area of new technologies for water and wastewater treatment (see: http://www.aimme.es/archivosbd/observatorio_oportunidades/new_technologies_for_water_and_wastewater_treatment_-_Patents.pdf ). Another non-patent literature (NPL) prior art document discloses a fact sheets on a chlorination of drinking water. This fact sheet discusses the requirements of a disinfection system, how to test the biological quality of drinking water, how to calculate the amount of chlorine needed in a particular situation, chlorination equipment, by-products of disinfection, and alternative disinfection methods.

However, above mentioned references and many other similar references has one or more of the following shortcomings: (a) costly devices and/or methods of water purification and/or water quality monitoring; (b) having complex features; (c) not easy to use; (d) with improve water purification ratios; (e) not continuously monitoring water quality; and (f) not used for stored water.

There remains a constant need in society for a device and method that supplies purified water to the entire housing unit, continuously monitors the stored water quality, and further which is cost effective and user-friendly.
