Alkaline Water Benefits

Samsung and Emco Tech Water Ionizer

IonWays has answered – with the help of Samsung and Emco Tech.

It’s no mystery that the ionization market has moved toward models with more plates.  Our beloved  Athena has remained the top performing ionizer available and in side-by-side testing has not been outperformed. However, it has become increasing difficult to explain the Athena’s efficiency in light of the seven and nine plate ionizers. Simply put, there are customers who are convinced an ionizer works better just by virtue of the number of plates.

• Samsung engineers wanted to collaborate to create the very best, new water ionizer. In the end,  they chose to partner with Emco Tech, the manufacturer of the world’s most efficient, powerful, and durable ionizers. The result is the next generation 9-plate Vesta GL ionizer. Samsung design, new cutting-edge AutoAdjust™ and other exciting technology combined with Emco Tech durability and performance. What could be more powerful?

Advanced Technology. Ultimate convenience. High Performance.

• AutoAdjust™ Ionizer performance always varies depending on the minerals present in your water. In other ionizers, this fluctuation in mineral content creates unstable results from day-to-day and from place-to-place. The Vesta GL is the only ionizer that overcomes this for you – automatically. The Vesta GL’s AutoAdjust™ technology consistently creates the ultimate pH and ORP at each level by adjusting the way power is applied to the plates to match the amount of minerals present in your water. The Vesta GL is the first and only ionizer that offers this level of advanced sophistication along with easy to use convenience.
• More Activated Alkaline Water! AutoAdjust™ automatically varies the electrical pulse time (or pulse widths) based on the mineral content in your water. This causes the electrodes to act in a more excited and energetic way, creating more active production of oxygen and therefore more activated water. The result is a bigger change in pH and better ORP. With AutoAdjust™ technology, you always get optimal performance and benefit, no matter where you live or what your water quality. Every time. Easy. Automatic. Only from IonWays.
• Smart Switch™ next generation SMPS. The Vesta employs the most-advanced Switch Mode Power Supply technology in order to operate it’s unique AutoAdjust™ feature. Current generations of SMPS offered by other ionizer companies cannot automatically adjust voltage on demand to match varying water conditions. The advanced SMPS used in the Vesta GL is able to deliver that functionality.
• BioStone dual filtration.  The Vesta GL offers you dual filtration with our industry leading BioStone filter. Dual BioStone filtration gives you the peace of mind of knowing that your water is not only alkaline and ionized, but BioStone-clean.
• Automatic post-use cleaning. Unlike other ionizers, never worry about the cleaning cycle. With AutoClean you don’t have to wait for your alkaline water. It also protects your investment.

 Other Key Features:

• 9 high-efficiency, platinum titanium electrodes deliver more power per square inch than larger, less sophisticated electrodes requiring large wattage. Think small. Think efficient. Think long-term reliable.
• Compact size – smaller than other 9 electrode ionizers
• Sleek mirror faced elegant design by Samsung
• Aesthetic touch screen sensors
• Advanced self-diagnostic “Smart” circuitry system
• Real-time screen display of estimated pH and ORP

Energy-saving, advanced water flow sensor.

The Vesta GL Water Ionizer will be live on the website tomorrow morning (2/7) at 9 AM PST, including the video. We have inventory in the warehouse ready to ship!

Ionways elita Phd. Portable Ionizer

The IonWays elita Line has launched. Many of you are now enjoying clean and healthy water on the go! If you have missed the excitement, the elita bottles filter the water up to 99.99% clean, then alkalize and ionize the water as you draw water through the straw / filter assembly in the bottle. Don’t miss out on the peace of mind they can give you when you are away from your ionizer!

For less the $130 you can have alkaline, ionized, and super clean water wherever you go with the elita PHd!  A portable water ionizer that you can enjoy healthy alkaline water everywhere!

At Ionways, they are working right now to enhance to the lineup through incorporating ideas and suggestions received as well as the launch of the next round of products. One major goal is to broaden the design appeal and functionality of the Brita-style pitcher, including eliminating the flush kit requirement. The upgraded Biostone filter incorporating the elita technology is also still on track. I cannot promise any dates yet, but we can expect both to be ready near the end of the first quarter of 2012, give or take a month.

The redesign of the elita QL100 is also still in progress, but due to some major upgrades, will not be ready until the third quarter this year. To remove any confusion about the availability, we are removing the elita page from the Ionways website.

Last, but not at all least, Ionways will be announcing a new ultra high-end electric ionizer next week. This new model was the result of a collaboration between our manufacturer (Emco Tech) and engineers from a major name brand electronics manufacturer. It will clearly set a new standard for our industry. We already have inventory in our Reno warehouse and are working on finishing up the behind-the-scenes details and marketing.

Stay tuned for next week’s Flow – you will not be disappointed!

Cloudy Water from the Ioniser

“The water coming from my ionizer looks cloudy! Why?” This is a common question at IonWays and it has an easy answer!  Water from an ionizer can look cloudy for a few reasons, but with IonWays ionizers it’s usually just one – alkalinity. Also called turbidity, this cloudiness is caused by fine particles of calcium and magnesium suspended in the water. These particulates are drawn from the existing calcium and magnesium in your source water and added to your healthy stream of alkaline, ionized water. This condensing of alkaline minerals in your drinking water is supremely beneficial to your health!  It’s a permanent alteration and, even though the heavier-than-water, alkaline minerals will sometimes settle to the bottom, they will not dissipate with time.

Turbidity can also be caused by tiny pockets of air bubbles created during the process of ionization. These come from separating the acidic water from the alkaline and the micro-clustering that takes place. The air bubbles fill in the negative spaces in some source water but are not always present. This depends primarily on the amount of dissolved oxygen in the source water.  These little pockets of air are harmless and will usually go away after several minutes of letting the water sit.

If your water looks unusually cloudy after ionization or you see a white film at the bottom of a glass because the water has completely evaporated, you should obtain a water report and find out if there are hard water concerns that need addressing. Once you obtain your report, please feel free to contact IonWays with any questions you may have and one of our wonderful Technical Service Reps will be happy to help you!

Running Hot Water Through Your Ioniser

The electricity produced by an ionizer always generates a certain amount of heat.   In order to cool down its internal, electrical components, IonWays ionizers must have cold source water to use as a coolant.  Of course, no one ever intends to run scalding, hot water through their water ionizer – but it can happen.  Fortunately, Ionways ionizers are designed with a hot water sensor, which works like the temperature gauge in your car – if the engine gets too hot, the temperature gauge goes up and it’s time to pull over and let your engine cool down.

Just as the dashboard on your car alarms you when your engine is overheating, the hot water sensor installed in your ionizer will alarm you with bells and flashing lights if its source water is hotter than 86°F. This is your warning that damage to your ionizer is about to occur.  If this happens with your Athena or Isis model ionizer, you can save your unit from a trip to the repair shop by following the process outlined below.

Start by turning off the source water. Then, power down the unit by turning off the main power switch located on the back of your machine. After getting your source water as cold as it can be, open the flow control valve on the front of your unit as far as possible. While keeping the power off, let the cold water pass through your ionizer.

IonWays‘ under-sink model, the Delphi, is installed directly to a cold water line. If the hot water sensor sends off an alarm, the water was made hot by plumbing exposed to high, atmospheric temperature. In this situation, you should switch the ionizer to the purified water setting and let the water pass through. After just a few moments, the tap water will get colder. Usually, water in household plumbing will only heat up if it sits and has time to collect heat. Switching your ionizer to the purified setting will not put electricity to the cell, preventing more heat from accumulating.

In all cases, you should run the coldest possible tap water through the ionizer’s system for several minutes.  Once this is done, the unit should be allowed to rest for at least a few hours. This will give it time to cool down completely and is the best way to prevent sending it in for repairs. If, after following the outlined procedure, the lights continue to flash, it will be necessary to contact Technical Services at Ionways and begin the process for repair.
