ALKA UV - Alkaline Filter System
The ALKA UV Underbench System with Alka Spring post filter Cartridge, specifically the Aquapro UV Undersink Filter system, is a highly regarded solution for addressing rural water issues directly at the point of usage, promoting tranquility in water consumption, particularly in the kitchen. This system incorporates UV technology to effectively kill bacteria, E. coli, and cysts inside the water, providing peace of mind and eliminating the need for boiling or concerns about water safety.
To further enhance the quality of the water, the UV system is combined with the ALKA SPRING cartridge, which offers alkalization and ionization of the water, promoting revitalization, and rejuvenation. This combination provides several health-promoting properties for daily drinking water, offering vitality and nourishment. The cartridge supplements the water with essential minerals, increases magnesium and trace elements, and offers hydrogen as a powerful antioxidant, bringing radiance to each sip. Moreover, it raises the pH to approximately 9.5, making the water alkaline and promoting organic and biological harmony in water consumption.

Alka Spring Specification
The ALKA SPRING is a revolutionary antioxidant composite cartridge that ionizes and enhances tap water using Far-Infra-Red (FIR) Energy Beads and Mineral balls. This system raises tap water pH to 8.5-9.5, infuses it with negative ORP antioxidants, and restructures water molecules for better hydration and absorption. It also increases oxygen uptake and retains essential minerals, supporting daily health and vitality.
Distinctive features of the ALKA SPRING include its use of FIR beads, made from natural maifanshi stone and seabed minerals, to emit beneficial infrared energy, and its capacity to enrich water with up to 90 trace minerals like strontium and lithium for improved bodily functions.
The ALKA SPRING is particularly effective with different water sources. Rainwater, often acidic and mineral-deficient, benefits from remineralization, especially when stored in concrete tanks which naturally alkalinize the water. Conversely, Reverse Osmosis water, which is free of contaminants but also stripped of minerals, requires demineralization to enhance pH and antioxidant presence effectively.
Installation may require additional accessories like a FILTER ATTACHMENT KIT or a FILTER TAP, with several types available to meet user needs.
The cartridge also features Maifenite, or "Wisdom Stone", packed with a broad spectrum of minerals and trace elements, renowned in Asia for its health-promoting properties.
