Unlike electric water ionizers, the UltraStream’s filter cartridge actually contains the media that ionizes, alkalizes and infuses the water with molecular hydrogen. So when you change a filter, you get the brand new version, which will incorporate any updated technology we have implemented. That’s why we call it an ‘eternal’ system.
FAQ Category: UltraStream
How much UltraStream water should I drink?
This depends on a number of variables. As a general guide for medium weight people is to drink about 1/3 of your body weight in ounces a day. So if you weigh 150 lbs (68 kgs), you should drink roughly 50 fluid oz (1.47 Liters) of water. If you work out, if it’s hot and […]
How long is the AlkaWay UltraStream warranty?
The warranty for the UltraStream is 3 years (Conditions Apply) for parts and labor under normal use. Warranty does NOT cover filters as there are too many variables in the source water.
How exactly is Hydrogen generated by the UltraStream?
The special magnesium O-Dobi beads react with two water moclues to produces magnesium hydroxide and hydrogen gas. Mg + 2H2O → Mg(OH)2 + H2 The Hydrogen gas isn’t very water soluble so it’s a good idea to drink the water quick to get the maximum amount of molecular hydrogen. KEY Mg = Magnesium Metal H2O = […]
Do you have a vegan filter that will filter out fluoride?
Yes, the UltraStream is vegan, the fluoride reduction media in the UltraStream is not bone char.
Will the benchtop UltraStream fit my kitchen tap/faucet?
The standard adaptor kit that is included with the UltraStream will fit most kitchen sinks The flow diverter and adaptors are designed to fit taps with male and female threads with a diameter of 21 – 23 mm. Four adaptors are included with every new benchtop UltraStream to connect the flow diverter to different sized taps. […]
Why does the UltraStream spurt or splutter when I first use it in the morning?
This is NOT air, it is the Molecular Hydrogen which is a gas. The spurting happens because Molecular Hydrogen has built up in the UltraStream overnight and/or when it hasn’t been used for a while. The first water that comes out of the UltraStream is the best as it will have the most of this […]
Why has the water slowed or stopped coming out of my UltraStream?
It is likely you have accidentally turned off the water flow at the blue and white tap on the bottom of the UltraStream. To check to see if this is the problem: Turn your UltraStream on it’s side. On the bottom you will see a base plate with two holes. Put your fingers into these holes and […]
What happens if I run hot water through my UltraStream?
This is not a problem although we wouldn’t recommend it on a regular basis. The UltraStream was not made to put hot water through it. However… When hot water runs through the filtration media in a cheaper filter it creates tunnels. When tunnels are created the water can run through without contact with the media […]
Can you drink this water just like tap water… regularly or only a few litres a day?
Yes, you can drink UltraStream water as you would drink regular tap water. We have observed that the amount of water people can drink once they install their UltraStream will increase because it seems to not bloat people as many ordinary tap waters do. We aim for 8 250ml glasses per day. Try to drink […]
