The present utility model provides a water dispensing device for providing output water in a constant Total Dissolved solids (TDS) range, the device comprising: a. a feed water inlet in fluid communication with a water storage chamber; b. a reverse osmosis unit positioned downstream of the water storage chamber, the treatment unit having a treated water line and a reject water line; wherein, the reject water line is split by a multichannel connector into at least two lines, a recycle line and a drain line; wherein either a multi- way valve is positioned at the multichannel connector or one valve corresponding for every split line, a drain line valve on the drain line and a recycle line valve on the recycle line downstream of the multichannel connector; c. a TDS sensor positioned on the treated water line, adapted to measure TDS of the water flowing out of the treatment unit; d. d. an outlet positioned downstream of the treated water line for dispensing water; e. a control circuit configured to: i. store a threshold TDS value; and ii. drain water from the reject water line of the treatment unit through the drain line, when TDS value sensed is higher than the threshold TDS value, and alternately when the sensed value of TDS is less than or equal to the threshold value of TDS, directs water from the reject water line of the treatment unit into the recycle line and into the water storage chamber; when the device is in operation. The present invention also provides a process for providing output water from a water dispensing Device in a constant Total Dissolved solids (TDS) range and uses thereof.
