Catalogue listing — not a hands-on review

We have not tested this unit. The specifications below are parsed from the manufacturer's own listing, the features are their wording, and the score is calculated from those specifications rather than assigned by an editor. For models we have examined in depth, see our ranked water purifiers guides.

About this model

The AO Smith ProPlanet P4 Pro is a UV water purifier listed by AO Smith at ₹24,900. That is above the ₹17,990 median for the purifiers in this catalogue.

AO Smith publishes little machine-readable specification for this model beyond the purification technology, so the specification table here is deliberately short rather than filled with estimates.

Every figure here is AO Smith's own published specification, read from www.aosmithindia.com on 20 September 2026. This is a catalogue listing, not a review — nobody here has used this purifier, and the score is calculated from the published specs by the method printed on the water-purifier hub. Running cost is a category estimate, not the maker's figure. Check the Amazon and Flipkart links before buying.

Manufacturer's stated features

  • UV stage inactivates bacteria and viruses that a membrane alone can let through

Worth noting

  • No RO stage, so it removes microbes but NOT dissolved solids. Check your TDS before buying this
  • AO Smith does not publish a storage tank size for this model
  • AO Smith does not publish a purification rate, so throughput cannot be compared directly
  • AO Smith does not publish rated power, so running cost here is a category estimate

When this is not a good choice

Every condition below is derived from this product's published specifications and from how it compares with the water purifiers we track — so you can check each one against your own room, supply or budget rather than take our word for it.

  • Your supply runs above 200 ppm TDS

    It is suited to supply up to about 200 ppm. Above that this technology removes nothing dissolved, so the water will be disinfected but not desalinated.

    Purifiers for high-TDS supply
  • Your area has documented arsenic, fluoride or nitrate contamination

    There is no reverse-osmosis stage. UV and UF deal with bacteria, viruses and cysts, and remove nothing dissolved — so against those contaminants this offers no protection at all, whatever the TDS reading says.

    Book a NABL lab water test
  • You live outside a metro or a major service town

    AO Smith's service network is rated good rather than excellent. Filter availability and callout times are what decide whether a purifier is still running in five years, and they are worth checking for your pin code before you buy.
