Crystal Quest® Alkalizing Water Filtration System

Commercial Alkalizing Water Filtration Systems for Healthier, Better-Tasting Water

These systems are designed to provide the benefits of water that is properly balanced in both minerals and pH. An alkalizing water filtration system not only helps neutralize acidity but also infuses water with essential minerals like calcium and magnesium.

Why Choose an Alkalizing Water Filter?

Maintaining the correct pH in a water supply is crucial for both health and the longevity of plumbing hardware. Water that is too acidic can corrode pipes and fixtures, while overly alkaline water may have an undesirable taste. Crystal Quest's water enhancers and neutralizers are designed to effectively stabilize water’s pH, improve its taste, and protect plumbing systems.

Recommended Applications

These enhancers and neutralizers are recommended for raising pH and alleviating acidity in both residential and commercial settings. For anyone suspecting their water is too acidic, an alkalizing filtration system can help create a healthier water profile suitable for drinking, cooking, and general everyday use.

Ideal for Various Settings

Whether for a restaurant, an office building, or simply for optimal home drinking water, an alkalizing water filtration system aims to ensure consistent water quality across all taps, addressing issues like corrosion, unwanted tastes, and excessive acidity.

Key Advantages of Alkaline Water

• Improved Taste: Balanced minerals can help soften the flavor of water and reduce any metallic or sour notes.
• Mineral-Rich Hydration: The presence of minerals like calcium, magnesium, and potassium can support overall wellness.
• Corrosion Reduction: Stabilizing pH minimizes the risk of damage to pipes and water-using appliances.
• Potential Health Support: Some believe alkaline water may help balance acidity in the body, though individual results can vary.

How These Alkalizing Water Filtration Systems Operate

The filtration process typically involves the following stages:

• Stages 1 & 2 – Special Blend of Natural Minerals and Infrared Balls: Water initially passes through a unique blend of natural minerals and infrared balls. This step begins the filtration process and introduces beneficial minerals that help condition the water before it undergoes further treatment.

• Stages 3 & 4 – Natural Carbonate Media for Alkalizing and Ionizing: Next, the water is treated with a special blend of natural carbonate media. This media alkalizes, ionizes, and mineralizes the water, raising its overall pH level. This process is intended to help reduce acidity in the body and produces essential calcium, magnesium, and potassium ions that are easily absorbed. By the end of Stage 4, the water is cleaner, better-tasting, and more balanced.

Understanding pH: Acidity vs. Alkalinity

• Acidity (Low pH): Water with a low pH (below 7, typically below 6.8 in this context) is considered acidic, often soft, and can be corrosive. While generally odorless and nearly tasteless, acidic water usually lacks buffering minerals and may contain dissolved carbon dioxide, leading to corrosion of fixtures and pinhole leaks in plumbing. It can also leach metals such as copper, iron, and lead from pipes, causing a metallic or sour taste and issues like blue or rust staining on fixtures and laundry. The recommended solution is to use a neutralizer to raise the pH, reducing corrosion and potential health risks.

• Alkalinity (High pH): Alkalinity refers to water's capacity to neutralize acids and helps protect against sudden changes in pH. However, excessively high alkalinity can give water an unpleasant taste and may lead to mineral buildup in pipes. Crystal Quest filters contain a media blend of calcium and magnesium carbonates that dissolves slowly to naturally boost pH, making the water less corrosive. Additionally, alkaline water can help lower Oxidation Reduction Potential (ORP), which some proponents believe offers additional health benefits. (Note: pH, or “potential hydrogen,” measures the amount of hydrogen mixed with water. The scale ranges from 0 to 14, with 7 being neutral, values under 7 acidic, and values over 7 alkaline.)
