Virus Guardian Cutting edge filtration technology removes submicron pathogens and inorganic contaminants through electro-adhesion and ion exchange. Proven in tests to remove up to 99.99% of viruses, bacteria and cysts. (*For added protection on chlorinated water, we recommend using an appropriate pre-filter If you’re on unchlorinated water, consider a UV system or the correct pre-filter for optimal filtration.) Filter Pads One Micron Filter Pads between each layer separate filter medias and protect against carbon ‘fines’ leaking into your water. Please note: Due to higher sediment in SA and WA water and in some rainwater tanks it is strongly advised to install a Mini Paper Pre-Filter  prior to your UltraStream Please note: if you have bore water (well water) please contact us before you purchase.

Frequently Asked Questions   Can the UltraStream remove fluoride? Yes. Through lengthy research and development the UltraStream uses the world’s best activated alumina media, removing 78% of fluoride throughout the life of the filter. See our lab test results here. Can I adjust the pH of the UltraStream water? All of the attributes of UltraStream water can be controlled by flow rate. The faster the water flows through, the less Hydrogen potent it is. We recommend a flow rate around 1.0 L/min for the best performance. You can easily adjust the flow of the UltraStream by adjusting a small tap underneath the base of the UltraStream.  You can then just turn on the kitchen tap and the UltraStream regulates the flow. What are the major reasons why people want to drink UltraStream’s pure, alkaline, antioxidant and hydrogen rich water? It helps people feel better, perform better and enjoy a healthier life. It is easy to install, operate and replace filter. It is affordable, costing 17c/litre initially and then down to 7c/litre after 1 year. Can I connect the UltraStream to my existing Reverse Osmosis? Yes, the UltraStream can be connected in series with an RO system. It will add powerful alkalizing and ionizing abilities to your acidic and aggressive RO water. You could also remove the RO system completely and replace with the UltraStream. How well does the UltraStream improve pH? Independent laboratory tests used a water sample that was a ‘witches’ brew’ of pesticides, volatile organics, fluoride chlorine, and minerals. The UltraStream changed an input pH of 6.5 to an output pH 9.5 in these tests. We’ve pushed the lab much farther than the normal lab tests by asking for performance statistics beyond the normal lifespan of the filter. Most filter tests are taken from the first water out of the filter, and disregard possible reduction in performance as the filter is continued in service. Here are our results. The UltraStream’s pH performance is directly related to the input water. Tap water is the only regulated water in the US and is around 7.0 for most homes. The UltraStream performs wonderfully in this environment and will consistently produce water ranging from 8.5-9.5. Most commonly, the water starts at 9.5 at installation, and by the time the filter needs to be replaced, it measures closer to 8.5. The bottom line; more acidic input water will have a lower pH, more alkaline input water will have a higher pH but both may be adjusted using the Twist’n’Flow control.There are a couple of other advantages as well. In hard water with excessive levels of alkaline minerals (like an over abundance of calcium), the UltraStream uses a special patented media that alters the form of the calcium and prevents it clogging the filter. It also re-infuses input water with healthier levels and proportions of alkaline minerals (as well as ionizing the water). We’ve used our decade of filter experience to ensure this lasts the life of the filter, so you have excellent purity and performance from start to finish.Those who utilize well water should also expect great performance. Very often, well water starts a bit above 7.0 and this can also translate to higher pH outputs from the UltraStream as well. Why is hydrogen so important? It is a selective antioxidant. It targets cytotoxic free radicals. Scientific studies have concluded that hydrogen may help and prevent a range of diseases including cancer, diabetes, carsio-vascular, arthritis, gout and other inflammatory related degenerative diseases. What other contaminants does the UltraStream remove? Heavy metals including mercury, lead, aluminum, and copper, as well as bacteria, pesticides, algae and fungi. For more details, see our lab test results here. How long will the UltraStream filter last? An UltraStream filter will last a year – depending, as always, on source water conditions and use. Our one year recommendation is based upon a family of 4, who use about 2 litres each a day (8 glasses) for drinking. If you use less, your filter may last longer. More – and you’ll need to replace sooner. (or contact us for some suggested pre-filter options). Filter life always depends on input water quality. The more unwanted stuff in the water, the harder the UltraStream has to work. For the vast majority of users, 9 months of protection and performance is no problem.           When the filter is replaced (a 3 minute job) your UltraStream returns to full filtration, pH, antioxidant and ORP power. How do I install the UltraStream? Are there any precautions before drinking UltraStream water? The only “negative” consideration is for those taking pharmaceutical medicine or suffering from kidney disease. We recommend you consult with your doctor. UltraStream water may be delivered to the cells more efficiently than tap or bottled, so we recommend not taking any medications with it. We suggest you stop drinking 30 minutes prior to popping the pill(s) and then wait until at least 30 minutes after. We have no evidence of adverse results but give this advice for legal purposes only. How much UltraStream water should I drink? This depends on a number of variables. As a general guide is to drink about 1/2 of your body weight in ounces a day. So if you weigh 68 kgs (150 lbs), you should drink ruffly 2 Litres (75 oz) of water. If you work out, if it’s hot and you’re sweating more, if you fly, if you have a soda/coffee/tea, then you can choose to drink more. All of those things speed up the elimination of water and therefore, we need more. The minimum recommended by science is half our pound weight a day (in ounces). Will my UltraStream be out of date in a year or so? Unlike electric water ionisers, the UltraStream’s filter cartridge actually contains the media that ionizes, alkalizes and infuses hydrogen. So when you change a filter, you get a brand new one, which will incorporate any updated technology we have implemented. That’s why we call it an ‘eternal’ system. Exactly how is hydrogen generated by the UltraStream? It reacts with water to produce magnesium hydroxide and hydrogen gas. Mg 2 H2O —> Mg(OH)2 H2 How long is the AlkaWay UltraStream warranty? The warranty for the UltraStream is THREE years for parts and labour under normal use. Unless otherwise approved by AlkaWay we offer exchanges rather than refunds. Warranty does NOT cover filters as there are too many variables in source water.
