Q. Why is Water so essential in everyone’s life?

A. Pure drinking water is a basic need of all human. Life cannot sustain without it. Food we take is converted into soluble material before their absorption in the intestines and is transported to various parts of the body as aqueous solution. Due to this fact it is essential for us to have adequate pure drinking water. Access to pure drinking water is the most important aspect which every human being should have in their life. In order to overcome health hazard caused by contaminated water, people purify water by traditional sources. With technological advancement and innovations, we have achieved success in creating the purest form of water no matter what condition the supply water is.

 

Q. What is Antioxidant Alkaline drinking water?

A. Ionized or alkaline antioxidant water is a carbonated type of mineral water. Pure alkaline antioxidant water has properties of most natural drinking water on earth which are normally found on high mountains. It greatly hydrates your body by giving the best ability to absorb nutrients and eliminate toxins.

 

Q. What does Alkaline water do for our body?

A. Alkaline gets rid of the acid wastes produced by the body. These wastes enter your body from various food and beverages you consume. It also helps to eliminate other harmful toxins from your body which will have impact on your health in long run. Alkaline makes your body more immune and helps in cleansing your internal organs.

 

Q. How maintaining the pH level help in maintaining a healthy life?

A. Alkaline antioxidant water helps body to maintain the desired pH level. PH level gauges the acid and alkaline in your body. The main reason of quick fatigue is because of irregular pH level in one’s body.

 

Wrong pH in the body also leads to weight gain. Too much acid can create unsettled stomach and heartburn. By consuming Alkaline antioxidant water, pH level is set at the desired level and you will be also protected against the above issues too.

 

Q. How can one increase the Alkalinity of Water?

A. The most common method is by using home water distillers, purifiers or ionizers which will provide us water to a certain degree of alkalinity. To have more alkaline water you can either squeeze lime into water, use alkalizing pH boosting supplement to the water.

 

Or by using ASTRADA antioxidant alkaline drinking water purifiers which are designed and engineered to make people’s lives better.

 

Q. What are the benefits of drinking Antioxidant Alkaline Water?

A. Alkalinity eliminates waste acids, by doing so body balance gets restored and they become more immune. Alkaline water makes peoples body resistant to indigestion, diabetes, headaches by stress, high blood pressure, constipation, obesity and rheumatism. The presence of Alkalinity restores the acid balance lost by acid wastes. Ionized water lubricates the joints making them stronger and also this speeds up injury recovery process.

 

Another benefit is the improvement in hydration. Compared with normal pure water, Alkaline water relays the vitamins, minerals and other essential nutrients to various parts of the body more rapidly. Ionized water has lesser molecules compared to normal pure water, which allows in better hydration of the body, which improves the detoxification capabilities of water.

Alkaline water will have strong Antioxidant properties. Antioxidants are vital to the human body. Apart from making body more immune, ionized water also has the anti-aging capability. There are also several factors in the antioxidant capability of water which resists cancer. Antioxidant water is absorbed by the body quicker.

 

Alkaline drinking water can clean various organs; it is been very effective in cleansing the colon. This property is very important for health as the unclean colon is always left with fatal elements and ionized water effectively cleans these elements. Ionized water can remove elements that are weeks or months old more effectively. Taking Alkaline antioxidant water daily will render the body more resistant to flu and other common diseases.

 

Consuming Alkaline antioxidant pure drinking water daily rejuvenates the skin. It replaces the skin tissues so it becomes more soft and elastic. It keeps the skin from drying up. It detoxifies the skin making it smoother. By keeping the pH level right food nutrients are absorbed more effectively, because of this the skin will start looking younger.

 

Alkaline antioxidant pure drinking water will help in losing weight and make one feel healthier and rejuvenated.

 

Alkaline antioxidant pure drinking water gets rid of toxins from the blood flow and thus increases the oxygen level in blood. This will in turn again support in the body to absorb nutrients more effectively and will help the body to hydrate easily. Alkaline water helps in steady the blood flow which helps you lead a healthier life.

 

Alkaline water can also help in maintaining the blood pressure. Consuming Alkaline antioxidant pure drinking water for over 3 months will help in maintaining the correct level of blood pressure for all ages.

 

There are several benefits of cooking in Alkaline water too. Soaking Rice in Alkaline water for 30 minutes will improve its taste. Cooking in alkaline water helps in retaining vitamins and mineral content in our food which sometimes get lost during the washing process. It also improves the flavor of food. Washing fruits and vegetables in alkaline water help to maintain its freshness.

 

Q. How do I know what’s in my water?

A. If you receive water from a municipal water supplier, then you can review your local "Consumer Confidence Report" (CRC) to learn what is in your water. Each year, public water suppliers are required to provide a CRC. If you are on a private well, you can send off for a water analysis from a certified laboratory.

 

Q. Which type of water treatment product should I purchase?

A. Once you know what is in your water, then you can better determine what you want to remove. This is accomplished through a water analysis. Next, investigate and learn about what type of systems are available that address your specific needs. There are a number of resources that you can use to make a good buying decision. Never ever buy a product that is sold to you via scare or alarm tactics, and check with several sources before you buy to make sure you're getting a high-quality system or replacement part.

 

Q. Once installed does water treatment equipment require any service or parts?

A. Yes, All in-home water treatment equipment needs occasional attention and may require replacement filters & membranes. Follow the manufacturer's recommended service and maintenance instructions.

 

Q. My water taste bad? What may be the cause and can it be corrected?

A. If you want to treat the drinking and cooking water at your sink with a POU (point of use) system, a reverse osmosis system is a great option. Reverse Osmosis can remove lead, iron, fluoride, nitrates, and dozens of other contaminants. In addition, an RO system can greatly improve the taste and the quality of your water by removing chlorine and other offensive tastes.

If you elect to treat the whole house, a system that is installed at the point where the water enters the home POE (point of entry) system, then your first step is to identify what is causing the problem (have a water analysis done). Once you have identified what is causing the taste problem you can then research what type of water treatment equipment is designed to address your specific needs.

 

Q. My well water tested positive for coliform bacteria. What does this mean and what can I do about it?

A. Coliform bacteria can be an indicator that the well may be susceptible to bacteria contamination. There are several options that you have. One is to disinfect the well and retest for coliform. If this second test also shows positive for coliform, then a whole house water treatment system should be considered. The most common system for treating waterborne bacteria is Ultraviolet (UV) water disinfection.

 

Q. What is a reverse osmosis system?

A. Reverse osmosis systems produce pure water by forcing untreated water or tap water through a semi-permeable membrane. The membrane lets only water molecules pass through directing it to the units storage tank, the impurities that are separated from the water molecules are forced down the drain. The system consists of both pre and post filters which add additional contaminant removal. 

 

Q. What is an ultraviolet system? How does it work?

A. An ultraviolet (UV) system uses UV to inactivate certain bacteria, viruses, and cysts that may be present in the water source that flows through the systems UV chamber. The effectiveness of UV depends upon the dose of disinfectant received by the organism, which is the combination of UV intensity times the contact time involved. It is advisable to always pre-treat the water entering the UV system. 

 

Q.What is Water Filtration?

A. A process in which water passes through a water system that may include one or more filters for the purpose of removing turbidity, taste, color, iron or odor and certain chemicals such as chlorine. The design can be loose media tank-type systems or cartridge devices. In general, the process may include mechanical, adsorptive, neutralizing and catalyst/oxidizing filters.

​

Q. There is chlorine in my water. Is chlorine bad for me?

A. Chlorine in itself does not appear to be a problem other than the aesthetic concerns of undesirable taste and odor it creates. There has been a lot of research on the effects of chlorine with evidence showing that the biggest concern being its reaction with natural organic materials like leaves and humus forming disinfection by-products, which are considered carcinogens. Installing a point of use water treatment system that incorporates the use of carbon filtration can be very effective in correcting this problem.

 

Q. What is activated carbon and what does it do?

A. Carbon used in filtration applications is produced by grinding a carbon source - like bituminous coal, peat or coconut shells and heating the material in the absence of oxygen to 1000 degrees to bake off impurities. The material is then subjected to 1600-degree steam to “activate” the carbon. The steam leaves carbon granules filled with cracks and pores, enabling them to store large amounts of chemicals. One pound of activated carbon (the amount in a standard ten-inch filter cartridge) has the equivalent surface area of a 160 acre farm. Carbon removes contaminants in two ways: through adsorption, contaminants are attracted to the surface of the activated carbon and held to it in much the same way a magnet attracts and holds iron filings; and by acting as a catalyst to change the chemical composition of some contaminants. Activated carbon is ideal for removing chlorine, organic chemicals such as many kinds of pesticides, THMs like chloroform and many VOCs that are components of gasoline, solvents and industrial cleaners.
