Nearly every surface in your house is a haven for germs and bacteria. Every day, we touch any number of these surfaces and spread the germs and bacteria to other areas of the home – cooking utensils, dishes, toys and more. How can you keep your home clean without using harsh, dangerous cleaning chemicals?

If you own a whole house water filter system, you already have in your possession one of the best products that can be used to combat this daily onslaught of bacteria and germs: the acidic water produced by this unit.

Shining Kitchen

Acidic water is a great green cleansing product that works on nearly every surface you can imagine within your home. Beginning with the kitchen, this water can safely clean and sterilizes cutting boards, counter tops, and cabinet doors. Any surface within the kitchen that is exposed to raw meat absolutely needs to be cleansed and sterilized to prevent the possibility of food poisoning.

Cooking utensils can easily be cleaned with acidic water to keep them germ and bacteria free as well. Toss some acidic water and soap into a mop bucket, and the kitchen floor can be sanitized easily.

Beautiful Bathroom

Moving onto the bathroom, this room is one of the most likely candidates for germs and bacteria. All surfaces within the bathroom would benefit from a spray of acidic water and cleanser. As this is the one room where bare feet are most often present, washing the floor with a combination of soap and acidic water would be prudent.

Another very useful and healthy trend to start in the bathroom is soaking toothbrushes in an acidic water solution. This will effectively kill bacteria and stave off any future bacterial infections.

Keeping Children Safe

Small children are very good at putting things into their mouths. Toys are the biggest culprits of germs and bacteria. Going through the toddler’s room and cleaning all surfaces and plastic toys with an acidic water solution can keep germs from attacking your little one. Bedposts and crib rails are other fascinating chew toys for many children in the teething stage. A quick wipe with a cloth moistened with acidic water will keep the bacteria at bay.

Other Uses

The usefulness of acidic water doesn’t stop with general surfaces. Windows and mirrors will be streak-free when cleaned with acidic water.

In addition, acidic water is perfect for keeping your car’s paint shining. Most tap water can prove to be very caustic to automobile paint jobs. Instead of filling up that bucket with soapy tap water, substitute with acidic water, and that paint job will thank you for years to come.

Don’t forget about your pets. Their water and food dishes can also be little hiding places for germs and bacteria. A daily cleaning with acidic water and soap, and you keep your pets healthy too.

If you have a whole house water filter that produces alkaline and acidic water, instead of tossing out the acidic water that your ionizer produces put it to good use. Clean your house from top to bottom with it, killing germs and keeping bacteria from spreading.

What exactly is reverse osmosis and how is it applied to our drinking water? Will drinking water processed via reverse osmosis have any impact on our overall health? Is reverse osmosis processing of our drinking water any better or worse than ionization of our drinking water?

These are a few questions that are asked when pursuing the healthiest and purest water we can put into our bodies.

Reverse Osmosis Process

The reverse osmosis process involves applying pressure to a liquid, such as water, to force it through a membrane. The result is particles that left on the one side of the membrane, while the pure liquid resides on the other side of this membrane. To go even further in explaining how reverse osmosis is applied to drinking water, we can look at how a drinking water purification system in the home works.

These purification systems contain a sediment filter that traps elements such as rust and calcium carbonate. Occasionally, the system may contain a secondary sediment filter with smaller pores that enables the system to trap even smaller particles. An activated carbon filter is also used to trap chlorine and other man-made chemicals found within tap water.

After the water passes through these filters, it is then processed through the RO or reverse osmosis filter, which contains a thin film membrane. Finally, this water can then be further filtered through a second carbon filter that traps any chemicals that may have been able to pass through the membrane. The end result is water that has been highly processed and cleaned to give the purest water possible for drinking.

Ionization Process

Ionization of water works differently, and the end results are different from that of reverse osmosis processing. When using an ionizing water system, tap water is first filtered in the same way osmosis systems work – an activated carbon filter traps sediment and chemicals. Next, the filtered tap water is introduced into an electrolysis chamber. Within this chamber, the water is charged electrically, and the ions within the water become negatively or positively charged. These ions then separate, and the result is alkaline water and acidic water. Ionization of tap water produces two types of water than can then be used, as opposed to one type of processed water produced by reverse osmosis.

Additionally, ionized alkaline water contains molecules that are much smaller in grouping than reverse osmosis water. These smaller molecules result in water that is much more easily absorbed into the body’s system. With the added bonus of acidic water from this process, not only does the recipient benefit from clean and pure drinking water, but will also have acidic water to use for cleansing and sterilization.

The Final Analysis

Both types of processing give the consumer a much cleaner and healthier drinking water.  However, ionization not only produces healthier water, but it also creates water that is much more easily absorbed by the body’s system. In addition, ionization also produces a second type of water that can be used in day to day cleaning and topical applications.

De-ionization of water is a process which removes all salts within water. This process involves passage of water through ion exchange materials to remove salt content. Another term for deionization is demineralization. Whichever term is used, de-ionized water is water with very little ions or minerals contained within it.

Industrial applications

De-ionized water has industrial applications. It is used in the production of semiconductors during the processing and cleansing of silicon wafers. Optical industries utilize de-ionized water to cleanse surfaces prior to coating. Tap water would be highly caustic to laboratory glass, and thus, de-ionized water is used to clean this glassware. Due to the lack of ions which would normally attract other ions or debris from the surrounding surface, de-ionized water produces spotless and stain-free surfaces.

Cosmetic and pharmaceutical applications

Because de-ionized water contains no impurities, it is used in cosmetics and pharmaceuticals. Normal water containing ions and other materials and contaminants would cause unwanted body and skin reactions. On many product labels, de-ionized water will show as “aqua”.

Automobile applications

Using common tap water to top off lead acid batteries in automobiles can drastically reduce the life of the battery. De-ionized water is the preferred liquid. De-ionized water can also be used in automotive cooling systems and is highly important in hybrid vehicles. Car washes also can benefit from the use of de-ionized water in their final rinse cycle. De-ionized water contains no dissolved solutes and enables the automobile being cleaned to come out spotless.

Household applications

De-ionized water can be used in freshwater and marine aquariums. The lack of copper and chlorine is essential to keeping fish disease free and will disable the buildup of algae commonly found on aquarium plants. The de-ionized water used should be re-mineralized before introducing fish and plant life, as it will not have the nutrients required by the aquarium dwellers.

Medicinal applications

Those suffering from sleep apnea and who require a CPAP machine need to use de-ionized water to ensure there are no impurities introduced into the machinery. Long term use of regular tap water causes high mineral build up and can shorten the life of the machine.

Emergency applications

Recent water fog fire extinguishing systems use de-ionized water. These systems are put into use where sensitive environments are prevalent, such as high voltage electrical areas and sensitive electrical equipment. The extinguishing systems use sprinkler-type nozzles and spray a fine jet of the specialized liquid. As de-ionized water is used, there is no conduction produced or present which helps prevent further damage to sensitive equipment. The downside to using de-ionized water in these systems is metals such as copper and stainless steel produce ions, which become introduced to the de-ionized water – effectively re-ionizing it. Another detractor to the use of de-ionized water in these cases is that it is highly corrosive, making it a very damaging element to the same sensitive equipment.

Conclusion

De-ionized water has many practical, industrial and every day uses. Many of these can be put into practice by everyone on a daily basis.
