You shouldn't. Kidney problem people only can take pure water like RO/Distilled. I think you should aware of this.

Point of Use is priority need. Get that one first.

hi guys
recently my elken RO water filter broke down so im surveying a new 1 now
prefer indoor juz need to filter room temperature water
and any sifu noe whats the different between RO water and those alkaline water, which 1 better for everyday usage, any brands suggested?

Thank you for your reminder, yes drinking pure water reduce burden of the kidney. What I actually don't like is the not-so-true claim of sellers like "RO water is good for health", "the amount of minerals in water is actually low that it doesn't make a difference" etc. These statements are not completely false, but neither true (some controversy here) ; however taught to many sellers until they thought the statements are completely true.

If really need to choose between RO and alkaline, I'll go for RO. In short:
RO: really able to filter contaminants esp. the inorganics, the controversy is that minerals eg. calcium and iron are also filtered away from the water
Alkaline: no proven health benefits & expensive, the manufacturer might focus on the "alkaline" part and neglect the "filter" part (so it might just simple and low cost filter technology, however become expensive because the "alkaline" part)

For suggested brand... I sell eSpring - the carbon-UV filter type, it's carbon filter to remove impurities, then use UV to kill bacteria & viruses.

More about alkaline water:
The mucus in our mouth, nose, esophagus, down to our stomach are acidic. The acidity kills any bacteria trying to enter our body, keeping us healthy. Imagine if we drink alkaline water, it passes through our mouth, esophagus and to our stomach, making the mucus less acidic / neutral. Bacteria will be able to enter our body much easier, causing us to be prone to sickness.

Plus, the majority of water is absorb in our small intestines, which needs to pass through our stomach. Our stomach must be acidic (pH 1.5 to 3.5) to digest food and again, kill bacteria. Drinking alkaline water will cause our stomach to produce more acid to maintain the pH level, giving more work to our stomach.

So think twice whether you want to drink alkaline water or not!

hmm so my elken today fully malfunction today
called their service centre to check

ive not sure im going to change or repair since we are drinking RO water 10 yrs+, if im changing these came up my mind

Change to new elken (K-100) (RO)

Which area are you based at? If you are in Klang Valley, can go to Amway HQ and try.

I can provide demo to you without obligation also, bring my demo unit, install at your home, let your whole family try + fill up 2 x 1.5 bottles for you to try.

Then you can experience why it is best source of water.


At the moment, there is a new standard by NSF - 401 Emerging Compounds/Incidental Contaminants

401 is a new standard that come out few months ago - read here


It covers all the pharmaceutical by products that enter the water sources and certify whether water treatment system can effectively filter these chemicals.


Espring was the first (Dec 2014) to pass the standard and at the moment (march 2015) only Espring & i-Water (from Taiwan's INOVA Green Tech) pass the standard.

Full report - here



PM me for more details / demo

Cheers

guys what is the recommended amway water filter?

dont want so expensive one, anyone know ma?

now i using the hexagon 8 stage filter, but not sure is ok to drink straight or not.

plus the filter already old, dunno wan change the filter or change new set.

Amway only have one water treatment system, which is eSpring.

Hexagon filter is a normal / basic water filter. There is no certification which states what contaminants it can filter. So no one can be sure whether the water is clean / safe to drink or not.

If your Hexagon is old, it is recommended to change.
