OSMINION® Direct Flow | 1 liter/min (600 GPD) reverse osmosis system with remineralization & pH increase

Is the Aquavolta® Osmoveda H2 not so good? Power of Osminion Direct Flow the water alkaline & antioxidant with H2?

Hello H.Akgün

What's not so good about the Aquavolta Osmoveda? Or better yet, the other one? I think the mineralization is good and that the pH value increases because the water becomes alkaline. But I would like to have a filter that you don't have to install underneath and an extra tap, etc.

Isn't the water in the Aquavolta alkaline? And the water is probably not mineralized, is it?

I haven't read through and I think it's very good, but then you read something else and you discover new things that are also very good. I would prefer a device that you don't have to plug in and that filters the best water for the whole family healthy is.

Thanks in advance, best regards, Anna

Answer from Yasin Akgün to the good questions, including whether the Aquavolta® Osminion Direct Flow really recommended:

Hi Anna,

Thanks for your questions. So the Osmoveda H2 hasn't been that interesting to us for a long time because the H2 content leaves a lot to be desired at around 1,2 ppm H2. The included H2 Turbo Booster has a H4 content of 5 to 2 ppm. And the H2 shuttle filter after that Osminion Direct Flow Even after 4 months it still has more than 1,2 ppm H2 content. When it's new, over 2 ppm!

In addition, after a lot of back and forth, we have now determined that the cold water is not enriched with H2 gas at all.

It's also big and sits stupidly on the sink and takes up a lot of space. The tank version in particular is even larger because of the tank

And the tank of the Osmoveda H2 with the small waste water tank in it is still a tank, even if tap water and drinking water are separated. There are also 3 water tanks in the device: 1x osmosis water tank, 1 x cold osmosis water tank, 1 x H2 rapid osmosis water tank, which is what you see at the front.

The whole thing with the hot and cold complicates things too. We've been fighting with the manufacturer since last summer to adapt the nonsensically programmed software for the cold water especially for us, and now we can say that the cold function is suitable for the summer. From the factory and worldwide everyone has the same bug: When summer, i.e. warm ambient air, the cooling sometimes does not stop automatically if the tank with the cold water is cool enough. This means you constantly hear a fan noise, which is not only annoying, but also warms up the H2 water tank with room temperature water.

Therefore, if possible, it is better to consider the Osminion Direct Flow, which is cheaper and has many more advantages and makes the water more antioxidant, H2-rich:
www.aquacentrum.de/produkt/osminion-direct-flow-600gpd-umkehrosmose-anlage-mit-reminerisierung-ph-wert-anzieh-h2/

If you have hard water and want to reduce minerals, then the Osminion is great. All customers, without exception, are very happy with it.

But if the tap water is not that hard, then the water filter or Mini H2 Rocket, even if it seems a bit more complicated, is the best choice because the Mini Rocket has a higher H2 content and is also quite invulnerable, except for that H2 Turbo, which you need:
www.aquacentrum.de/produkt/aquavolta-wasser-filtrator-wasserfilterung-ph-wert-erhoehung-h2-gas-anreicherung/

The water filter / Mini Rocket and the Osminion Direct Flow work with this magical H2 Shuttle pH+ post-mineralization cartridge:
www.aquacentrum.de/produkt/nachmineralisation-kartusche-minerade-h2-shuttle-ph-wasserstoff/
It makes it alkaline, but it has to be replaced about every 5 months

Both waters are much healthier than anything else on the market, but the filter is more so because it produces higher H2 values, making the water very antioxidant, but does not reduce limescale, but even increases it minimally.

The healthiest thing for the family would be that before someone gets sick, you deal with it immediately and never stop, it's just magic:

I look forward to your further questions. See you soon, Yasin

Hallo,

I've been looking for a reverse osmosis water filter for a long time.

Unfortunately, there are many manufacturers with different technologies. As a result, I created a small list of questions. I would be very grateful if you could answer this with confidence!

Is tap water molecularly filtered using reverse osmosis?

Who is the manufacturer of the membrane?

Does the device comply with DIN 1988 T 2?
Is the entire production monitored by TÜV (important due to the risk of water damage)?

Does the manufacturer offer a “lifetime” guarantee (30 years) as well as a 10-year exchange guarantee (e.g. for further developments)?

Does the system have product liability insurance for water damage?

Have all plastic parts and the removal tap been tested by the Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing (BAM)?

Is there a BAM certificate that the plastic material used is free of plasticizers?

Is there a BEWAG test report for the system?

Is there a germ-free certificate for the system?

Is there a test report on the surface tension of the water for the system?

Are check valves installed in the various systems?

Is the sampling tap made of clinical stainless steel?

Is there a test report on the shock resistance of the system that it can withstand 120.000 pressure shocks of 15 bar?

Are the parts assembled without toxic solvents?

Is the system equipped with a water stopper with an electronically controlled shut-off valve?

Is the system equipped with John Guest connectors?

Is the activated carbon in the pre-filter made from highly absorbent coconut shell?

Are the sediment pre-filters wound (no foam block filtration on the surface only)?

Is the cluster structure of the water also optimized after purification?

Is the system manufactured in Germany?

Can you take a look at the factory where the systems are produced?

Are there official testimonials for the systems?

How long has the manufacturer been on the market?

Is the system protected against viruses and bacteria?

Can you change the filter yourself without additional manual costs?

Is the cluster structure of the water optimized after purification, and by what process?

It should be noted that there are a lot of unscrupulous suppliers of water filters and reverse osmosis systems on the market who put their customers at risk of serious poisoning and even endangering their lives by selling products that have not been tested for phenols, plasticizers and heavy metals hand over!

It is therefore very important that reverse osmosis and water filter systems are thoroughly tested by state authorities. You should not rely on mere advertising claims from providers, but also request the relevant evidence and certificates.

You can now see that I have been dealing with the topic of water treatment systems for a very long time!

Unfortunately, I also had to pay a lot of tuition fees, both in terms of my health and finances!

So I hope for your understanding and for your questions to be answered. Kind regards

Andreas S.

Answer from Yasin Akgün to the many questions about our best reverse osmosis system

Hello Mr. S.,
So those are too many questions, and most of them can be answered with no
This is all standard, FDA tested, world market, large quantities, in other words, other “manufacturers” or rather sellers have misled you and scared you about everything
The Osminion Direct Flow is from the largest manufacturer in the world, half of the systems online come from them, only ours also has an internal after-filter, and if desired an external mineralization filter with H2 gas infusion:
www.aquacentrum.de/produkt/osminion-direct-flow-600gpd-umkehrosmose-anlage-mit-reminerisierung-ph-wert-anzieh-h2/
www.aquacentrum.de/produkt/nachmineralisation-kartusche-minerade-h2-shuttle-ph-wasserstoff/

This is a filter that will certainly not introduce poisons into the water, and all osmosis systems are like this, with the same standard hoses etc.

In terms of health, you can't have paid the price for a water filter, because health lies somewhere completely different:
www.aquacentrum.de/videosammlung-neue-germanische-heilkunde-neue-germanische-medizin/
Listen to the first video
If you find just one hypothesis on the site, you will receive a 50% discount on the Osminion Direct Flow. If you don't find one, you have a very, very exciting new hobby for life.

Included water stopper is mechanical:
www.aquacentrum.de/shop/leckage-stop-mechanisch-leak-stop/

Yes, I have product liability insurance

Nothing is made in Germany, everything is made in China, even if other manufacturers claim so, they only made the housing in Germany...

You can never guarantee freedom from germs, I can't see everything in your kitchen, but I can send you a sterile filter: www.aquacentrum.de/produkt/mini-inline-sterilfilter-mit-1-4-stutzen-ultrafiltration-filterfeinheit-002- µm bacteria filter

You have a free trial period and satisfaction guarantee and 4 year warranty:
www.aquacentrum.de/satisfactionguarantee/
Even after the warranty, everything can be repaired

The tap is made of stainless steel, others don't have that, whether clinical or not, since you let the water drain first, it doesn't matter.

Yes, you can easily replace the filters yourself.

The tee is John Guest: www.aquacentrum.de/produkt/t-stueck-john-guest-winkel-absperrventil-38-x-14-mit-rueckfluss-verhinderer-din-norm/
The rest isn't, but everything is now standard and very, very reliable

Surface tension is a different area, I will measure all the water with a tensor this year, it goes in the direction of:
Hexagonal water is elusive, feel free to take a look here:
www.aquacentrum.de/faqs/hexagonal-structure-water-messbar-microscopic-belegbar/

Below on the top page are the studies on hexagonal water, but they are all rather unimportant compared to these studies on hydrogen:
www.molecularhydrogeninstitute.com/studies
And an even bigger one: https://e-miz.co.jp/english/file/documents3.1_en_black.pdf
And an older one:
http://aquavolta.de/euromultimedia/pdf/studies/Nicolson_H2_Review%202016.pdf

I've been in the industry for over 16 years and I get emails like the ones you send me, so you can trust me. There is no danger from the systems, except that if you leave them for a long time, strange bacteria that smell like rotten eggs could develop, in the past when people didn't work with silver activated carbon and antifouling membranes, but today everything is standard, so no worries..

Hope this helps you
I look forward to your answer

Sincerely,
Yours, Yasin Akgün

Mr. Asenbaum How do you rate reverse osmosis systems from Hpreiss and Truu Water?

Dear Mr. Asenbaum,

I have been dealing with the topic of water for a long time out of personal interest.

This email is simply to thank you for all your actions, your commitment, sharing your interview, preparing the topic, for example in the form of short videos, so that I can understand everything too.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for that.

Now I'm not a professional like you, I just know that there are various cleaning systems out there, of which if you want to spend some money, the reverse osmosis process with subsequent swirling/activation if necessary is a good choice. That's the technology. There are many providers, some of which are probably very similar, but others offer rather inferior products.

I find enrichment with hydrogen very exciting and have been able to learn a lot about it through your videos, among other things.
I would be pleased if you could tell me - more as a water expert than as a representative of a specific brand - how you rate the products from hpreiss and truu water, although in my opinion truu does not currently offer a variant with hydrogen enrichment.

(Oh...since you don't really live around the corner, I was hoping to be a little closer to the lots of interesting information you keep sharing by connecting via your Facebook page. So I had one for you Short message sent via Facebook/messenger. But I think you spread the information about water through other channels. Therefore the connection request may not seem appropriate.)

Thank you very much for your help and your time.
Sunny greetings from Düsseldorf
Ulrike K.

Dear Ms. K.,

Thank you very much for your great praise and your questions. I recommend that you work through my link list in advance, as I can only go into it very briefly here. https://aquavolta.eu/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Linkliste-Asenbaum-aktuell.pdf

Reverse osmosis is the most complex filter process and removes both pollutants and useful dissolved substances such as minerals from the water. It only makes sense if the water contains pollutants that cannot be removed by the first 3 stages of a reverse osmosis system (sediment/activated carbon/ceramic filter). In Germany this is necessary in around 10% of cases. The osmosis membrane as the 4th filter stage then creates almost pure water, which does not meet any standard for drinking water because it has the property of filling up with anions and cations like a sponge and thereby demineralizing the body. As a result, people start eating more than is required in terms of calories to compensate for the missing minerals from water intake. Drinkers of pure osmosis water are therefore usually overweight. In my opinion, the fact that in areas where the natural water is almost as soft as osmosis water, more coronary diseases occur, especially in men, is not a direct effect of the water, but rather the urge for over-calorie nutrition that arises there.

I therefore strongly advise against long-term drinking of reverse osmosis water that has not been re-mineralized.
By activation I only mean the activation measured electrically in millivolts by dissolved hydrogen gas, which leads to a very low redox potential. Turbulence, on the other hand, has the exact opposite effect because it creates oxygen. i.e. high redox potential introduced into the water.
The two never fit together.

Hydrogen-rich water occurs naturally in a few healing springs, but is extremely rare and the hydrogen content is practically impossible to bottle, as hydrogen-rich water is very sensitive due to rapid degassing into the atmosphere. Therefore, over the last 17 years, while I have been working on this topic full-time, processes for increased enrichment and preservation of hydrogen water have been invented. Why hydrogen-rich water is the most interesting variant of drinking water treatment (besides filtering) can be found in detail in my book “Electroactivated Water – from healing water from the socket to hydrogen therapy” mentioned in the links.

I have been involved in some new techniques for production and preservation in the form of the “Aquavolta” brand I developed, which is sold worldwide through licensing partners such as www.aquacentrum.de. Please forgive me if I generally give cautious assessments of other brands or distribution systems. The colleagues in question certainly put a lot of effort into their products. However, I am usually one of the first to find out about new technologies, and in fact we always develop a new Aquavolta product as soon as a sensible technological leap in water treatment becomes apparent. However, the two systems you asked about, hpreiss and truu, are actually neither new nor interesting to me.
hpreiss has 2 hydrogen devices on its website: The Hydron, a Koranic device with which I was able to measure a hydrogen concentration of 1300 ppb maximum. Today's systems achieve significantly more than 2000 ppm. As well as the Hydrogen Mini, which I haven't been able to test myself yet. However, hpreiss states the following: “Concentration of dissolved hydrogen ions: 700 – 1100 ppb”. From today's perspective, this is downright ridiculous for a hydrogen booster. Apart from the fact that the company apparently has no idea about the technical terminology: Because “hydrogen ions” are H+ ions. Chemically, they have about as much to do with hydrogen gas as the name “Gustav” has to do with the word “inn”.

The scope of truu products is not described in more detail on the website. It seems to be pure filters. In any case, it is a multivel marketing structure sales, which explains the prices of over €3000. I think these prices are misleading customers. As with the structural distribution of the Kangen devices, which are also far overpriced, there are indications of a connection with Scientology organizations. https://www.swr.de/swraktuell/baden-wuerttemberg/karlsruhe/truu-wasserfilter-scientology-100.html

Water ionizer after a reverse osmosis system: Can osmosis water also be ionized?

Hello Mr. Akgün
Here in Paraguay I have to reckon with residues from agriculture in the groundwater.
Since I have my own well, I filter my groundwater with a reverse osmosis system.

Hence the question; Do your devices, e.g. the EOS, work? www.aquacentrum.de/shop/eos-genesis-wasserioniser/ even if I connect a reverse osmosis system in front of it?

The water that comes from such osmosis systems conducts electricity very poorly due to the lack of salts.
Best Regards
Harald Fenger

Answer from Yasin Akgün | Mineralizing reverse osmosis water before ionizing it in the water ionizer

Hello Mr F.
I'm sorry that the email has only now come to my attention.
Of course you can also use the EOS devices with RO water, the manufacturer has even made a mineral filter for this case:
www.aquacentrum.de/shop/mineralisationkartusche-1-eos-genesis-revelation-platinion/

What kind of RO system do you have?
With or without tank.
We need a minimum flow of 1 liter/minute, with back pressure through the internal filters of the EOS Genesis.

Hope this helps you
All the best
Yours, Yasin Akgün

PS: This filter is enough to filter out almost all chemicals, wherever they may be. Every reverse osmosis system only filters with the same filter media, namely activated carbon:

Hope this helps you. All the best, Yasin Akgün

Answer | Reverse osmosis is the only useful filtering/filtering of water

Hello Mr Akgün,

I can't completely agree with you about reverse osmosis, I measure my ppm value and pH value in the finished water before H2 gassing. In addition, there are correctly several filters and a germ filter, this is not questioned in any system, not even in yours. Germs arise in every system, which is why a germ filter is the last stop for me, although in theory this can also germinate again. :-)

I used to drink distilled water, nothing happened and it no longer contains any minerals.

You know that when water enters the body, osmosis and other exchange processes begin immediately. For me it doesn't matter how high the mineral content in the water is, because we definitely don't live on these tiny amounts. Water is a source of basic building materials, which you also emphasize, and improving it with H2 meets this requirement.

There is no system that can select. Depending on the filter, I either filter more or less to almost nothing at UO or I leave everything in and edit it. These are two fundamentally different philosophies, both of which have their justification and are both successfully represented on the market. Unfortunately, there is no one who examines everything together 🙂

The RO water itself is dead, that's true, but it is treated afterwards, which can also be measured. This is also why I think H2 gassing is great.

You can't tell a membrane what it filters out. From my understanding you are physically wrong, there is a physical pore size and that determines what goes through or not in a completely physical way. You can determine the size of every atom, molecule or compound, then you know what gets through. In principle, almost only water and very small substances pass through the UO and if you look at the molecular structure of drugs and toxins, they are all large molecules and I would like to have them all out and not ionized or electrically changed or bombarded with electrons or something whatever an ionizer does. But I think ionization only makes sense if the water is clean beforehand, because I don't want to imagine what else could be created from potentially toxic structures through electrical changes.

And I've tried several activated carbon filters, but they never come close to a UO in terms of measurement.

Unfortunately, your claim is not physically correct (I am a natural scientist and live from facts and am very critical :-) that the UO basically only filters with activated carbon. These are pre-cleaning measures to protect the membrane. You also rinse off the coarse dirt before loading the dishwasher so as not to load the system with all the dirt and wear it out. The actual filtering process is just the UO through the membrane and this happens in every body cell membrane with biological membranes. I use the membrane to determine which size goes through or not. You shouldn't claim such false things, as a dentist I'm too meticulous and it's not for nothing that I completed advanced physics and chemistry courses with A grades each in my Abitur :)

I'm happy to listen to all the arguments and am very open and open-minded, but the devices all cost a lot of money so you can quickly change them for a few thousand euros and throw them away. In addition to water, there are completely other things that you have to pay attention to, believe me…

But you could explain to me exactly what happens in the ionizer, what filtering and what ionization means, that would be nice.

I'm very excited about the booster and am looking forward to it, especially if it delivers the same results as my other device for a significantly lower price.

Greetings and thank you

Answer from Yasin Akgün about reverse osmosis and reverse osmosis water or distilled water

Hello Mr. H.,
Thank you for your long email and the clarification.
I just want to mention:
Do you think that after 2 activated carbon filter units in the typical reverse osmosis system, major pollutants, apart from mineral salts, still come through?
Shall we have a little bet? We wanted to have puddle water from the street analyzed anyway, before and after a can filter:
www.aquacentrum.de/shop/kannenfilter-aquaphor-prestige/
So a very simple filter.
Do you think it will filter stay etc or not?

I'm not saying that you will experience any health harm from distilled water or reverse osmosis water, but it won't help you either and is simply unnecessary.

Exactly the same game with table salt or crystal salt.
According to your philosophy, you would also have to eat table salt from the supermarket and then try to make it natural, i.e. re-mineralize it with minimal minerals, etc.

It really doesn't make sense, as activated carbon filters out almost all pollutants, especially chemicals.
Only heavy metals are not filtered out reliably, but there are activated carbon filters that can:
www.aquacentrum.de/shop/aquaphor-modern-auftischfilter/
www.aquacentrum.de/shop/wasserfilter-set-aquaphor/

I'm also a scientist, and I just realize that there's a reverse osmosis conspiracy going on around the world.
If you want to filter water, everyone thinks that reverse osmosis systems are the only systems.
But that's not correct!
All filter systems, including reverse osmosis systems, pre-filter with 1-2 activated carbon filters. Why please?
If the RO system is so great, why do the activated carbon filters have to be installed beforehand?
This applies to ALL RO systems and distillation systems.
That does make sense.
The chemicals are filtered out by the activated carbon filters, and very reliably.

But no matter how written, our body can even survive on just Coca Cola, so it's not an issue if the minerals are outside and you're trying to play God to make it more natural again, or upgrade it with hydrogen from a hydrogen booster .
For everyone, what they like best and what convinces them.

So how is your water with the hydrogen booster?
It tastes even softer, doesn't it?

The price remains stable and low for you so that you can distribute it easily among your friends, etc.
And I would be happy to send you a water ionizer for testing.
They have one or two activated carbon filters integrated into the water ionizer.
So make sure you filter cleanly enough.
Even cleaner with the Aquaphor model (see above)
I look forward to your feedback, which may be shorter this time too.

All the best
Yours, Yasin Akgün

FAQ quote from »RW« from your forum about osmosis water | Only drink reverse osmosis water when it is mineralized

“I did a blind test with my dog. Since the water from the “gravity filters” mentioned above, he has been drinking more anyway. I now placed three glass bowls of the same size, one with regular water, one with tap water and one with energized, mineralized reverse osmosis water. I swapped the position of the bowls several times - my Wauwi always slobbered out of the bowl with the osmosis water."

 

Answer k. H. Asenbaum | Minerals in reverse osmosis water

This passage could be very misleading. Because an “energized, mineralized reverse osmosis water” it's not reverse osmosis water, but a pollutant-free, artificially produced table water. No dog I know would drink pure reverse osmosis water without any minerals if given an alternative.

The question still remains as to what “energized” means. Many people throw this term around. Some are the swirl fans. It's about more oxygen in the water, because the turbulence with the 21% oxygen atmosphere causes more oxygen to get into the water. Butter the fish – but is that of any use to us gillless humans?

The scientifically proven trend towards healthy water for lung-breathing non-fish seems to be due to its content of molecular hydrogen H2 and is accompanied by a conscious reduction of the oxidative combustion gas O2.

The Tyler Le Baron Foundation provides the best overview. www.molecularhydrogenfoundation.org/ Unfortunately only English.

The basics are also in my book about electro-activated water. (419 pages) free to download here:

Reverse osmosis system with mineral waste

Reverse Osmosis System > Reverse Osmosis Water > Water Ionizer – Isn’t that the best!

I have a question for the water expert 🙂 I'm from Saarland and our coal mining pits were flooded and we now have bad water from the tap.

That's why I decided to build a filter system and read up and came up with reverse osmosis, which basically distills the water.

I thought this was the best water and then found out through reading that alkaline water was even better than just pure water. Using the last filter stage, you could enrich the water with minerals and make it alkaline with a mineral cartridge, but this would mean that you would be constantly supplied with minerals and I think that could also be bad because even good things can be bad if too much is administered.

Through further reading I found out that there are water ionizers and, based on your video, that they can cause calcification.

The idea of ​​first purifying the water using reverse osmosis and then ionizing it. Wouldn't that be the optimal solution???

Answer Yasin Akgün about Reverse osmosis water from a reverse osmosis system in front of a water ionizer

Hello, thanks for the question. Yes, you think so, but that's not the case. Analogy:

Can you convert table salt from the supermarket, pure NaCl instead of almost pure NaCl, and 90 other salts back into rock salt?

Impossible to imitate in just a few million years, so simply keep the minerals in the water, or if necessary, use a special reverse osmosis system in which the mineral content can be adjusted. From pure reverse osmosis water to pure filtered water, or mixed water, I like to call it a mishmash.

www.aquacentrum.de/shop/100-wasserwerk-umkehrosmose-anlage-mit-einstellerem-ph-wert-und-mineraliencontent-und-hydrogencontent/

In addition, water that is low in minerals is less suitable for improving its value through electrolysis because it contains very few minerals or mineral salts, i.e. ions. Water that has lots of minerals is best.

Therefore, it is better to just pre-filter with an activated carbon filter, which is already installed in every filter system, including water ionizers, and your distiller. Because they mainly filter out the chemicals. The rest is more about stripping the water of its minerals, as in the case of your distillation apparatus or a reverse osmosis system, or with the water ionizer, optimally solving only the minerals that do not taste good and are also rather undesirable: The acidic mineral salts, the anions. More about that in this one Short video about our opinion about reverse osmosis water and reverse osmosis systems.

Answer about which water ionizer Karl Heinz Asenbaum uses at home:

“I am constantly testing new devices. I'm currently finding it AquaVolta® Moses preferably."

 

Addition by Yasin Akgün:

I can also add that Karl Heinz Asenbaum uses IONIA® from the same manufacturer AquaVolta® ECA Plus water ionizer

The real question | Heavy metals and ionization of heavy metals in the water ionizer

Thank you very much, it is noted.

I know what you think about osmosis water and that this has degenerated into a kind of religious war. But I don't even want to identify with someone like that because I'm always open to new things. Since I value your opinion very much, I would like to give you a point of view that is not easy to ignore (at least for me) and that, if you want to look at it scientifically and strive for the optimum in quality, you inevitably has to deal with the topic.

I agree with you 100% with all of your arguments for and against RO technology. It is not necessary in itself, as dissolved minerals are also needed for the further processing process in the ionizer and they are actually very important.

However, this approval requires that the source medium must be uncontaminated in its original form, which cannot be achieved technically by the waterworks alone. We are talking here about an extremely increasing heavy metal particle load, which is in the nano range and neither from the waterworks nor from the filters in the ionizers (which only filter out the worst - particles of 1µ, while a membrane is capable of filtering out particles of 0,0001 micron) can be achieved. These nanoparticles pass through the blood-brain barrier without any difficulty and reach regions where they absolutely do not belong.

So at the end of the day you may not have quite as nice/high numbers or values ​​and also an increased effort due to the remineralization, but you still have the certainty that no, or a greatly reduced, heavy metal spectrum has ended up in the water, which is not belongs in the body and, as you yourself say, “could be made even more dangerous by ionization”.

I don't want to convert anyone or force an opinion, but I would find it interesting if you could briefly comment on these arguments, perhaps also pointing out whether additional minerals would be needed in addition to the mineral mixture to remineralize 80 mg of calcium and 20 mg of magnesium and whether This information refers to one liter of water.

Thank you for the exchange and your perspective

Kind regards
MS

Answer from Karl Heinz Asenbaum about water filtration and heavy metals and air quality

Dear Mr. Seifert,

If heavy metals are still found after filtration, you must use a stronger filter performance, if necessary reverse osmosis with calcium + Mg (magnesium) post-mineralization. In this case, I actually recommend reverse osmosis.
But I have probably seen more than 1000 analyzes that examined heavy metals after the filter of a water ionizer. Of these, less than 5% were such candidates.

I tend to only advise customers on the most necessary measures. Nobody should spend more money than they have to. In my experience, your statements about the heavy metal contamination of drinking water in Europe, even after normal filtration, only apply to 5% of water intake points.

I also generally warn against overestimating the danger at the wrong risk point. By far the greatest amount of heavy metal pollution comes from the air, and not from drinking water. With mercury, the worst of all heavy metals, it travels directly to the brain via the olfactory nerve. That's why I think an air ionizer is just as important as a water ionizer. I have one in every room.

With kind regards,

Karl Heinz Asenbaum

Answer from MS About air purification and heavy metals

Of course, I agree with you about overestimating the danger at the wrong risk point. If you were to adapt this sterile standard to other living conditions, you would have to live in a clean room and would no longer be allowed to leave it. I put 3 of the following products in my room:

www.aquacentrum.de/shop/zoomius-luftreiniger-auf-oel-bzw-wasser-waelzbasis/

But I don't really know yet whether they really get more than dust out of the air. Hence mixed feelings. I've read a lot of frightening things about air ionizers, which led me to buy oil-based air purifiers. For example, in Amazon “The device not only emits ions, but also the gas ozone. This gave me a strong dry cough... Smokers should definitely google thoroughly before making a purchase decision, as there is a study about possible additional lung damage.” Since this could of course just be targeted disinformation, I am open to new information here too.

Are there any videos or information material from you regarding air ionizers? From what I understand, you have probably looked into it intensively beforehand, so the question is which product convinced you?

Reverse osmosis water

Patricia G.: We were convinced of reverse osmos water for years and have a lot of money for such a system output. We have now realized our mistake. It's actually logical! But can't you use the existing system as a pre-filter for a water ionizer so that you can ionize particularly pure water?

What does microsiemens mean?

 

Great TV report about reverse osmosis water from Wassertankstelle / TRUU:

Yesterday I had a representative come and measure the water from my water ionizer. It actually has more ppm than tap water! I thought the filter took out all the pollutants!

Andrea G.: Yesterday I had a representative come and measure the water from my water ionizer. It actually has more ppm than tap water! I thought the filter took out all the pollutants! Now, the man says, there are even more and he advises me to get a reverse osmosis system.

• PPM means Parts Per Million. A conductivity meter is used to measure the number of all parts dissolved in the water. The conductance is often given in microsiemens. It says something about the quantity, not the quality, of water components. 5 ppm lead, mercury, uranium or cadmium can be catastrophic, but 1000 ppm calcium is perfect! Anyone who wants to assess the quality of water using a conductivity measurement is either completely ignorant or is purposefully telling untruths in order to benefit —> Reverse osmosis to advertise, which I will discuss elsewhere.

• Where does the increase in ppm come from even though the water is filtered before electrolysis and pollutants are thereby removed? Minerals from 2 liters of water collect in 1 liter of alkaline active water in the cathode chamber. In addition, some filters add —> Calcium added because it is good for us and the buffering of the activated water. That's why there are usually more ppm, but fewer pollutants, that can be measured in alkaline activated water.

• Last but not least, I have to point out that the conductance can only be used to measure electrolytes, i.e. ions in water, but not electrically neutral atoms.

• You should also keep in mind that the really bad pollutants such as lead, mercury or uranium, but also hormones and antibiotics, are harmful even in very minimal amounts. Heavy metals, for example, are measured in micrograms, while good metals such as calcium, magnesium or potassium are measured in milligrams, i.e. a thousand-fold order of magnitude. If filters remove ppm from the water, that doesn't mean that it's affecting “the bad guys”.

Which replacement filters and at what intervals are the filters of the Osminion Direct Flow 500 GPD reverse osmosis- system to exchange?

Hello Mr. Yasin Akgün,

We will now have our system in operation for 6 months and are very satisfied!

Think now is the time to change some filters. We have very calcareous water, 21 degrees of hardness. Unfortunately, I don't check which ones and at what intervals.
I think I can then order these filters from your webshop.

Enclosed is our order for your information.

Would be great to hear from you!

With kind regards,
Your insurance broker

Answer from Yasin Akgün: Filter change depending on discretion and stretchable...

Hello Mr W.

Thank you for your email and your questions, which I now have to clarify here because the topic is actually simple, but is still not clear to everyone.

Basically, tap water is NOT deadly toxic and full of contaminants or anything like that. It's quite clean. It is therefore sufficient to only replace the first filter every 1 months, as this does the main filter work.

It is not the 2nd filter, the reverse osmosis membrane, that filters pollutants, but the 1st and that. 3 filters, both activated carbon filters. For more information on the topic of osmosis, please listen to the audio video here on this FAQ page or here: www.aquacentrum.de/trinkwasseraufbereitung-was-du-wissen-solltest-podcast-mit-peakwolf-ch-und-yasin/

That's why the membrane filter can be changed after 2 years at the earliest, even 3 years wouldn't be an issue. The older the membrane, the more minerals will “flow through” it, but from my point of view this is more of a positive thing. After the membrane, it is filtered again through the third filter through activated carbon media, and also externally, with the H2 shuttle pH+, which brings even more advantages:

1. pH value increase to pH 9 or even up to pH10, in the first 2 weeks after changing the filter
2. including H2 content so antioxidant, more antioxidant than other flow H2 generators or electric water ionizers
3. The different ceramics also “energize” or “vitalize” the water, resulting in water that tastes softer.
4. Some ceramics also protect against germ contamination in the H2 Shuttle pH+ filter

This means you can change the filter Osminion Direct Flow 600 GPD carry out at the following intervals:

1. Filter, activated carbon pre-filter, change every 6 months
2. Filter, reverse osmosis membrane, every 24-36 months or later
3. Filter, activated carbon post-filter with pH neutralization, every 12 months
4. external filter, H2 Shuttle pH+, every 6 months if you want to continue drinking antioxidant and alkaline water above pH 9.
