New and Improved Water Ionizer Comparison Chart

As some of you might have noticed we have recently updated our water ionizer comparison chart. The new and improved Alkaline Water Plus Water Ionizer Comparison Chart includes many common questions about the various water ionizers that are regularly asked by water ionizer customers. This chart is made for YOU, to enable you to make a water ionizer choice that you are happy with. After all we are very motivated to ensure our customers are very happy. For one, we’re trying to help you, but because we pay your restocking fee, if you’re not happy with your water ionizer purchase it’s in our financial best interest as well to make sure you are satisfied with your water ionizer once you get it.

In this video I give a thorough and clear overview of the comparison chart. I clarify most if not all questions you might have concerning the water ionizer comparisons being made in each section of the chart. I also give insight into the key points that water ionizer customers would or should be looking for in any water ionizer they’re going to buy.

Before startiing the video I suggest you click this link to pop up a new window with the new and improved Alkaline Water Plus Water Ionizer Comparison Chart on it. http://www.alkalinewaterplus.com/water-ionizer-comparisons. You can then read the chart and follow along with the video.

Keep in mind that I don’t sell the Enagic water ionizer at Alkaline Water Plus. I do sell all other water ionizers featured on this chart. I only include the Enagic water ionizer for comparison purposes.

Some Key Things to Pay Attention to When Thinking About Getting a Water Ionizer are:

How Thoroughly is the Water Ionizer Ionizing the Water at Drinking Levels? [ORP at the Lower Levels]

ORP Per Unit of pH: ORP [antioxidant levels] in water is an important water ionizer comparison feature. At an 11 pH, though, the ORP is irrelevant, because it is too high of a pH to drink. Regardless of this fact, most water ionizer comparison tests are done at the highest settings for each water ionizer. Alkaline Water Plus believes that the ORP should be tested and compared at each level of pH, especially the lower levels. That way the various drinking levels of ionized water are checked for their ORP levels. Some water ionizers are great at getting a good ORP at their highest settings [such as the Enagic] and not at the lower [drinking level] pH settings.

Do the Water Ionizer’s Plates and Electrolysis Chamber Design DO the JOB?

Plate Design Quality: Many water ionizer companies brag about the size of their plates and/or number of electrodes in their water ionizer brand, when the real test of quality in a water ionizer is the ORP per unit of pH [as described above], and that has more to do with the efficient use of electricity than the plate size or quantity. It’s not particularly good to put too much electricity through your plates, however whenever you increase the size or mass that the electricity must go through, it requires more power to do it.

How Well Will the Water Ionizer Perform into the Future?

Plate Cleaning Quality: Very clean platinum coated plates are very important to any water ionizer design. What happens in a water ionizer is the hard minerals in the water want to stick to the plates in the alkaline side of the water cell. Continuous cleaning is the best design for a water ionizer, because it keeps any hard minerals off the electrodes. Platinum is necessary for efficient electrolysis. It catalyzes it [speeds it up]. If the plates are continuously cleaned, the platinum can then touch the water and do its job of catalyzing [speeding up and making more thorough] electrolysis.Mesh plate designs on a water ionizer is a newer, more efficient design, but beware of any water ionizer which does not have continuous cleaning [in which case the mesh would be a bad idea, because there would be more grooves for hard minerals to clog up.]

How Well will the Water Ionizer Clean the Water?

Overall Filtration Quality: With all of the junk in our US water today it is an important feature that every water ionizer offers pretty good to great filtration. Chlorine, for instance, is filtered out by every water ionizer I sell. Some water ionizers, however, offer better filtration than the others. A good example is the Jupiter Biostone Plus filter, which has over 9 layers of filtration with sophisticated [and expensive I might add] filter media which gets out tricky things, such as chloramine [a compound of chlorine plus amonia...very hard to filter out], fluoride [which reports are coming in droves of the health risks of consuming fluoride] and pharmaceuticals [

As you can see this chart is very comprehensive and thorough. Keep in mind that we, at Alkaline Water Plus, are REALLY testing each water ionizer. We are not a fake water ionizer review site. Each point on the new water ionizer comparison chart is something important for a water ionizer customer to know, especially the above four points, which I think are the qualities most important to look for in a water ionizer.

After over 16 years of drinking alkaline ionized water, I can say with conviction that the very best thing I could give to myself or a loved one is a WATER IONIZER! Give yourself and your family the gift of health this year!

The Athena water ionizer and the Tyent Turbo water ionizer are both very high quality alkaline water ionizers.  I have tested these two great water ionizers against each other many, many times. Just this past week I did some more extensive water ionizer comparison testing, and you can see the videos and brief summary of each water ionizer’s performance verses the other below.  When it comes to choosing the best water ionizer for you and your family, who best to do the looking and deciding than YOU?

In any case, both of these water ionizers are far superior in performance than many other water ionizers on the market.  I say this based on personal tests and evaluations of water ionizers for many years.

Here are some of the general features of each water ionizer:

Tyent Water Ionizer vs. Athena Water Ionizer

Tyent Water Ionizers:

7070T Water Ionizer – The 7070 Turbo is the water ionizer we are testing in the video, below.  It is a 7 plate water ionizer.

9090T Water Ionizer – The 9090 Tyent Turbo water ionizer is the next step up from the 7070T water ionizer.  The main difference is that it is a 9 plate water ionizer.  It will get slightly better readings because of that. You can see an earlier blog post comparing the two main Tyent water ionizers [7070 vs 9090] here: http://alkalinewaterplus.info/blog/2010/12/18/is-the-new-nine-plate-water-ionizer-an-improvement-or-not/ .

9000T Water Ionizer – This is the under-sink version of the 9090T.  It will get very similar results as the 9090T.

Jupiter Water Ionizers:

Athena Water Ionizer – The Athena Water Ionizer is the top of the line water ionizer at the Jupiter company.  It has continuous cleaning (it cleans continuously, behind the scenes, with no wait time).  It also has mesh plates so it allows for more thoroughly ionized water (hence the great ORP ratings.) The Delphi water ionizer is essentially the same machine as the Athena water ionizer, save one filter port, but it is the under-sink version.

Melody/Isis Water Ionizer – The Melody/Isis water ionizer is the next step down from the Athena.  The cleaning system is very good, but it’s not continuous.  It reverses polarity [cleaning the plates thoroughly] with every use though, and this is done behind the scenes…so there is no wait time for the consumer.  It also gets pretty good ORP readings.  They aren’t as good as the Athena [because the plates are solid], but the pH and ORP are pretty impressive with the Melody/Isis water ionizer. Here’s an article that will demonstrate the quality that is typical of the Melody/Isis water ionizer: http://alkalinewaterplus.info/blog/2010/11/04/kyk-vs-jupiter-melody-water-ionizers

Venus Water Ionizer – This is the next step down.  It is a good machine and will get the range of pH.  However, the ORP readings are not as great as the Melody or Athena.

Below, I have included several videos and charts comparing the Athena Water Ionizer versus the Tyent 7070T Water Ionizer.  In all videos, I use a moderate flow rate for both water ionizers, between 1.5 and 2 liters per minute.  I try to eliminate the flow rate variable and keep both water ionizers at the same flow rate.

Test Number One

Test Number Two

In this video, I slowed down the flow rate for both water ionizers.  I also assured that the flow rate for both the Athena Water Ionizer and the Tyent Water Ionizer were the same before starting the testing.

Conclusion

The Athena Water Ionizer gets a really great ORP at all pH levels, even the lower level alkaline pHs!  The Tyent Water Ionizer doesn’t start to get good ORP until level three. The Tyent water ionizer gets a lower acid pH [2.3 vs. the Athena's 2.6 in St. Louis water]. The lower the acid water, the better the acidic water is for use as a germicidal cleaner [killing germs], although any pH lower than 4 will kill germs.

rH

There is another method to evaluate these test results.  We could measure the rH (relative hydrogen).  The formula is:

(ORP + 200)/30 + (2 x pH)

The closer the number is to zero the better.  The scale goes from 0 to 48.  If it is below 28 it is antioxidizing and if it is above 28 it is oxidizing.  The Athena water ionizer beats the Tyent water ionizer on this, but the Tyent water ionizer is still exceptional.

Tyent and Life water ionizer companies have now come out with 9-plate water ionizers. Is a 9-plate water ionizer better than a 7-plate water ionizer? It has been a long, long time since I’ve completely trusted what water ionizer companies say about themselves. Even when I think their water ionizers are great, I have found that all too many times the “facts” I am given by the companies, themselves, are exagerated. I do my own testing, because only then can I see for myself what really is the truth about any particular water ionizer. I did a series of tests on both the 7070 Tyent Turbo and the 9090 Tyent Turbo Extreme, to determine if the 9090 Turbo Extreme was actually better than the 7070 Turbo. My prediction was that there would be noticable differences and that those differences would be in the area of the ability of the 9-plate water ionizer to get a faster flow rate. However, what I found was…

There is negligible, if any difference between the performance of the two water ionizers.

Here are the videos… [Note: I was unable to test the 7070 Tyent Turbo directly against the 9090 Tyent Turbo Extreme, because I only had one set of filters. So, I tested each against the Athena...to improve the accuracy and reliability of the testing.

In this first video, I'm testing the Tyent 7070 Turbo water ionizer against the Jupiter Athena water ionizer.

In this 2nd video, I'm testing the Tyent 9090 Turbo Extreme water ionizer against the Jupiter Athena water ionizer.

In this 3rd video, I'm testing the Tyent 9090 Turbo Extreme water ionizer against the Athena water ionizer at a fast flow rate.

Analysis:

Tyent 7070 vs Athena Water Ionizer Comparison

 Tyent 9090 vs Athena Water Ionizer Comparison

 Tyent 9090 vs Athena Water Ionizer at Fast Flow!

 In some further testing [I'll have to find the video], I found the following: The Athena water ionizer’s performance fell off at the “Fast” flow rate [when it reached over a 2 liters per min.] The Tyent 9090 fell off too, but not as much. So, I suppose that if you were looking for a faster flowing water ionizer, it would be better to have the Tyent 9090. Here are the results:

Tyent 9090 vs Athena Water Ionizer at Level 3 with Slow, Medium and Fast Flow Rates!

So, what can be learned?

When it comes to water ionizers… Bigger is not necessarily better & more is not necessarily better either.

However, it is clear that all three of the water ionizers tested were of exceptional ability to ionize!

After over 16 years of drinking alkaline ionized water, I can say with conviction that the very best present I could give to myself or a loved one is a WATER IONIZER!  Give yourself the gift of health this year! And…  

Have a great holiday season!

A Good Explanation of the Melody and Athena Water Ionizers’ Internal Cleaning Systems is in the video, below.

I came across this video yesterday, and thought I’d share it with you. It’s over a year old, but just as applicable today as it was when it was made!  It’s amazing to me how much better the Melody and Athena are than any other water ionizer for their water ionizer water cell internal cleaning systems. I’ve seen this kind of thing in action with real-live electrodes and the amazing difference this kind of internal cleaning, flow-chamber-switching system makes!

When doing water ionizer comparisons, don’t forget to look at each water ionizer’s internal cleaning system!

It is so important to clean your water ionizer’s electrode plates, that I’m surprised so few water ionizer companies are taking this point seriously enough. I’d imagine that competitive pressure will eventually force all water ionizer manufacturers to address this issue. But in the meantime, we do have the Jupiter water ionizers which have adequate cleaning of electrodes…along with adequate everything, really! It appears that KYK is also a close runner-up or equal…now with their automatic clean-as-you-use electrode cleaning system and new draining system!

Actually KYK has another feature I think beats out the Jupiter ionizers, and that’s the fact that their filters get rid of the fluoride! That’s something that all water ionizers do up to 85% or 90%, but to get more than that, you usually need to prefilter or do RO…which just adds another thing buy and attached to your line.

Chanson has an exceptional looking product that all water ionizers can use, and that’s the “Ionizer Armor“. It’s a strong magnet that puts a temporary charge on the input water, so that when the hard water passes through the water ionizer it won’t tend to stick to the insides of the plumbing and film up the plates with what is called scale build-up.

With the big deal people are making these days about making sure they purchase the water ionizer with the best pH/ORP/rH on testing, I think it will be only the next evolution for all the companies to jump in there and do what it takes to prove their cleaning systems will keep those pH/ORP & rH scores high well into the future with consistently well-cleaned plates.

Lots of testing has been done on brand-new water ionizers. I say it’s time to start testing older models …after months or even years of use! Good idea!

Water ionization is the first (and probably most important) step toward achieving an alkaline diet. It’s so satisfying and healthy to drink nice, fresh, alkaline ionized water straight from a fantastic water ionizer [such as a Jupiter Melody water ionizer, an Athena, a Life 7500, an Enagic, a Tyent 7070 or a Venus water ionizer]. But there are other things that you can also do to make your diet more alkaline.

Grapes are Good!

Grapes, apples, LEMONS, limes, strawberries, grapefruit, mangoes, melons, pears, papayas, pineapple, peaches, lettuce, spinach, broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, cucumber, tomatoes and cabbage are all fantastic foods for many reasons. First of all, they are full of wonderful alkaline water! They’re also bursting with enzymes! They can be eaten fresh! You should eat a certain percentage of fresh fruits and vegetables daily…because cooking destroys enzymes and vitamins.

When you eat alkaline forming foods, the food, prior to digestion, could be acidic, but the result after digestion is an alkaline effect on your body. So there is some truth to that old saying, “An apple a day keeps the doctor away!”

There are several videos on You Tube with Rob Gray concluding that Tyent is the best water ionizer. Rob doesn’t list his web-store, and maybe he doesn’t have any affiliation. Rob tests several water ionizers and concludes that Tyent is the best in each of his several videos. The Tyent is a good water ionizer, but not better than the Athena, Melody or Life water ionizers. I’d say, it’s about the same, because it produces about an equal rH (relative Hydrogen, see below).  These are all great water ionizers!

I always appreciate knowing who I’m talking to, though, and what their stake is in it (if they’re proclaiming themselves to be objective they still have a reason they’re producing this video). Rob appears objective, but I wish he would tell us who he is (i.e. which water ionizers he sells and what the name of his webstore is).

In this video, Rob is obviously trying to show the Tyent as the winner, when in fact all three water ionizers in this video are winners. And, if you look at the rH (relative Hydrogen: the actual health value of the water [omitting the effect that jacking up the pH has on your test results), you see how close all the water ionizers in this test group came to each other. When compared with regular tap water as ranging between 32 and 38, the ionized water at a level of 21 rH is very good. Here’s the results:
