Question 1

Why is my PUR2o Alkaline Plus water sometimes cloudy and full of tiny bubbles?

Accepted Answer

When you grab a drink of water delivered by your PUR2o Alkaline Plus Water System, you’ll see a whole lot of tiny bubbles in your glass. These bubbles are negative hydroxyl ion oxygen bubbles. '
 
They are created by the process of ionization and show the NEGATIVE Oxidation Reduction Potential (-ORP), or the anti-oxidant power of your water. The higher the -ORP, the more oxygen bubbles you’ll see in your water.
 
The oxygen bubbles quickly dissipate, so drinking the water before the bubbles float away is extra beneficial. If you bottle and cap the water, over time you may not see any bubbles, however the water remains ionized. As there are minerals in the water, the hydroxyl ions will also be there.
 
As blood cells carry oxygen for use throughout your body, those oxygen bubbles are important. The oxygenated water helps increase energy and boosts your immune system. Low levels of oxygen in the blood can result in dizziness, fatigue, and lack of energy.
 
Remember, all those tiny oxygen bubbles mean the greatest -ORP levels, which go a long way to improving your health and wellbeing.

Question 2

How often do I have to change my filters on the PUR2o Alkaline Plus drinking water system?

Accepted Answer

Changing your filters depends on the amount of water consumed and the quality of tap water coming in. On average, filters must be changed once a year or 1500 gallons, whichever comes first.

Question 3

On average, how long until the PUR2o Alkaline Plus System pays for itself?

Accepted Answer

This depends on the amount of water you currently purchase and consume for drinking and cooking, not counting the savings when it comes to your overall health!
 
Did you know?…. If you drink eight glasses of water each day, it will cost approximately $55 per year; vs $1,700 if you were to drink the same amount of bottled water instead. The PUR2o system pays for itself in only one year by one person's water consumption.
 
In the first year after buying the system, your water will cost you on average $1.13 per gallon, 
​
In the second year after buying the system, your water will cost you on average $0.57 per gallon.

Question 4

Why is this system good for the environment?

Accepted Answer

The PUR2o Alkaline Plus System does not use electricity and eliminates the need to purchase plastic bottles of water. Only 1 in 5 bottles are recycled, the rest end up in landfills. The oil used each year to make plastic water bottles in the U.S. could run more than 100-thousand cars!

Question 5

Why is re-mineralizing a good idea?

Accepted Answer

Because drinking RO water is like drinking “dead water”. Reverse Osmosis technology removes everything from the water, including essential minerals. The PUR2o re-mineralizing filter adds calcium, magnesium and potassium to your drinking water, raising the pH, enhancing its health benefits, quality and taste.

Question 6

What’s the difference between a standard re-mineralizing cartridge and the PH BOOST re-mineralizer?

Accepted Answer

The PUR2o re-mineralizing cartridge restores minerals to the purified and de-min realized water and brings the water’s pH back up to 7.0 – 7.2 or NEUTRAL.

Our body’s natural pH hovers around 7.0.
 
The PH BOOSTER and IONIZER goes a very important step further. It restores calcium, magnesium, and potassium to the water, therefore the pH of the water delivered is now between 8.5 – 9.0, making the water ALKALINE and IONIZED with great ANTI-OXIDANT properties.

Alkaline and anti-oxidant water has been proven effective in preventing and treating cancer, diabetes, aging, auto immune and other diseases. Most diseases, except those caused by pathogenic bacteria, are linked to pollution of the blood.
 
Since the human body consists mostly of water, when we drink poor quality water, where pollution has weakened the cohesive power of the molecules, we risk disease.

Alkaline and anti-oxidant water is believed to activate those enzymes that remove harmful free radical oxygen in the body.
 
Alkaline and anti-oxidant water is not “medicine” but is an effective deterrent against certain diseases. It boosts our immunity and has natural healing properties.

When comparing two healthy adults, studies show significant differences between the one drinking tap water and the one drinking alkaline and anti-oxidant water.

Question 7

Should I use the PUR2o Alkaline Plus water for cooking?

Accepted Answer

Yes, always use PUR2o water to cook! Boiling city water to ensure safety is a myth! While it’s true some bacteria and viruses are killed (municipalities adding chlorine and ammonia already take care of bacteria), it is also true that boiling tap water results only in a higher concentration of those harmful chemicals and contaminants found in the water, making the water more dangerous upon consumption. Municipal water supplies are treated through chlorination. That chlorine – a known carcinogen – does not completely evaporate and it is just one of the many chemical contaminants concentrated when boiled.

Question 8

Does the PUR2o Alkaline Plus System remove fluoride?

Accepted Answer

YES! PUR2o Alkalin Plus removes fluoride.
