Due to the increased popularity of ionized alkaline drinking water, TrueSpring has developed the all-new Calcium and Magnesium Mineralizing Cartridge / pHPlus™ module to raise the pH of ultra-pure BEV-quality drinking water to an average of 9.5, with overall water quality remaining medically pure. This module* is designed to be attached to the remarkable TrueSpring Kitchen CounterTop System/BEV-100 series water purification system and can be pre-ordered with a system or added at a later date.
Ionized alkaline water conditioners, imported primarily from Japan and Korea, pass tap water through an electrolysis process that separates and concentrates the positively and negatively charged mineral ions, producing alkaline (pH > 7) or acidic (pH < 7) water. Many health claims are made by promoters of these devices, primarily related to water consumption with an elevated (alkaline) pH.
Unfortunately, alkaline water conditioners fail to adequately purify tap water before subjecting it to the electrolysis process. At TrueSpring, we see this as a significant oversight—one cannot possibly expect to receive the proposed health benefits if the water contains toxic impurities and heavy metals.
Alkaline water conditioners typically use only small activated carbon pre-filters, similar to those found in gadget water filters that attach to the kitchen faucet. Activated carbon can be an effective method to remove organic impurities from drinking water, but only if water has adequate contact time with the carbon. When water passes through too quickly, impurity levels are only slightly reduced. Further, activated carbon has no capacity whatsoever to remove dissolved heavy metals and inorganic mineral salts. In fact, it is impossible to separate extremely pure water into acid or alkaline components.
At TrueSpring, we believe any level of contamination is unacceptable. There is no single method of water purification capable of separating harmful dissolved salts from the supposed beneficial minerals. Only a combination of technologies, like those found in the TrueSpring Drinking Water systems, can ensure the complete and total removal of all harmful contaminants.
With the new Calcium and Magnesium Mineralizing Cartridge / pHPlus™ module, those wishing to explore the proposed benefits of drinking alkaline water can do so knowing the source water is 100% pure. And with prices of alkaline water machines ranging between $500 and $1200, a TrueSpring Kitchen CounterTop System/BEV-100 series water purification system with the Calcium and Magnesium Mineralizing Cartridge / pHPlus™ add-on module represents a safe and affordable investment. (The module can be easily removed at any time.)
