Filtration
Reverse Osmosis filtration (RO) is internationally proven to be the best way to purify drinking water, pulling out nearly all the contaminants. While this process produces clean water, it also removes all of the good elements our bodies need to function properly and makes it difficult for our bodies to absorb. Our post RO filters replace minerals by using natural elements and increase the pH of the water to an alkaline level. Research has shown that our bodies are in a better position to fight illness and disease if we are more pH Balanced or Alkaline. (link)
In addition to purifying and balancing the pH of the water our coolers add natural calcium, magnesium and other vital minerals and electrolytes into the water. According to the World Health Organization both calcium and magnesium are essential to human health. Calcium is needed to protect against osteoporosis, kidney stones and helps lower high blood pressure. Magnesium is an important mineral in the protection of one’s heart.
Total Dissolved Solids
Total dissolved solids or TDS are inorganic contaminants measurable within our drinking water sources. The most common examples are minerals, chemicals and harmful metals such as Lead, Mercury, Arsenic and Chromium.
Depending on the source of the water there can even be Bromide, Nitrates, Cadmium, Magnesium and many other elements that can have harmful effects to our health. Many of these things are found in our tap water.
Materials in our drinking water that don’t contain enzymes dare not usable in the physiological process of human cell.
Growth and accumulate in our bodies because we have no way to excrete or utilize them.
In-Line 9 Stage Process
Total dissolved solids or TDS are inorganic contaminants measurable within our drinking water sources. The most common examples are minerals, chemicals and harmful metals such as Lead, Mercury, Arsenic and Chromium.
The EPA has established the highest permissible level (parts per million) of contaminant allowable in water that reaches a consumer’s drinkable water supply. These levels are broken down accordingly:
- <10 ppm: Pure water
- 25-30 ppm: High quality bottled water
- <225ppm: Acceptable quality by EPA Standard
- >500ppm: Not recommended for consumption
- >1000ppm: Should not be consumed
Did you know?
It takes as many as 25-30 8oz glasses of alkaline water to balance the pH effect of one can of soda.
Alkaline VS Acidic
Alkaline water is rich in alkalizing compounds, including calcium, silica, potassium, magnesium, and bicarbonate making it pH balanced. These components are important to the total heath and wellness of the human body.
Acidic water has been stripped of most or all of these components.
To determine if water is alkaline or acidic is a matter of a measurement of pH with 7 being neutral. If it is less than seven it is acidic if it is higher than seven then it is alkaline.
In an acidic environment, many diseases such as cancer thrive. The typical American diet is high in processed food, sugars and starches, which contribute to the acidity in our bodies.
Phosphoric acid is added to many sodas to “enhance” the feel and taste of the beverage.
Antimicrobial Technology
All of our products are protected by antimicrobial technology keeping them clean and sanitary. Polar point of use coolers are equipped with one or more type of antimicrobial protection.
BioCote
This technology infuses silver ions into the unit’s materials. Silver is a natural anti-microbial that inhibits the growth of microorganisms. It provides long-lasting protection by creating a surface where bacteria simply cannot survive.
Agion
Antimicrobial technology keeps products clean and extends product lifespans using silver and copper for protection. It provides long-lasting protection by creating a surface where bacteria simply cannot survive
In Tank-UV
Ultraviolet light is emitted in the water holding tank in order to deactivate any microorganisms preventing them from reproduction and rendering them harmless.
Bio-sure
Bio-sure is in tank sanitization. This patented process uses slow release silver ions to provide the antibacterial protection. The additional contact time with the water insures a more consistent and effective in-tank sanitization.
