12-Step
Water Filtration Process
Sediment Filter
This is the first stage. It's a pre-filter that removes large particles like dirt, rust, and sand from the water. This step protects the subsequent, more sensitive filters from clogging.
Activated Carbon Filter
This filter uses activated carbon to trap and remove chlorine, chloramines, pesticides, herbicides, and other volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that affect the taste and odor of the water.
Reverse Osmosis (RO) Membrane
This is the main purification step. Water is forced under pressure through a semi-permeable membrane, which removes up to 99% of contaminants, including heavy metals, nitrates, fluoride, and other dissolved solids.
Post-Carbon Filter
A final carbon filter after the RO stage to remove any residual tastes or odors that might have been introduced by the storage tank or other components. This is also known as a polishing filter.
Ion Exchange
This stage helps to soften the water by reducing hardness minerals like calcium and magnesium. It replaces these "hard" ions with "soft" ions, preventing scale buildup in the system
Alkaline Filter
This filter raises the water's pH level by using a media containing minerals like calcite and tourmaline. This is the primary stage responsible for making the water alkaline.
Ionizer
Using a process called electrolysis, an ionizer separates the water into alkaline and acidic streams. The alkaline water is rich in negatively charged ions, which are believed to have antioxidant properties.
Antioxidant media
This type of media primarily works by changing the water's Oxidation-Reduction Potential (ORP). ORP is a measure of a substance's ability to either gain or lose electrons.
UV Sterilization
This stage uses ultraviolet light to disinfect the water. The UV light kills any remaining microorganisms, including bacteria, viruses, and parasites, without using chemicals.
Taste & Odor Filter
A final polishing filter that ensures the water has a crisp, clean taste and no unwanted odors. This may be a second activated carbon filter to catch any final impurities.
Monitoring System
The system is equipped with sensors and a display to continuously monitor the water's quality, including its pH and total dissolved solids (TDS) level, to ensure the filtration is working effectively.
Freshness Guarantee
The "Freshness Guarantee" step is a quality assurance measure that uses technology and a final filtration stage to ensure the product you receive from the filter is consistently clean and refreshing.
