About ORP

About ORP ORP  = Oxydation Reduction Potential.  The other way an ionizer alters the water is to turn it into a powerful antioxidant, measured as ORP (“Oxidation Reduction Potential”) –  It is a more complex concept and is an extremely difficult measure accurately. ORP is sometimes referred to as “Redox”. An ionizer’s alteration of the ORP of your drinking water is what causes the micro clustering, antioxidant and hydrating effects.   ORP is a “potential” energy that is stored and ready to be put to work. An analogous way to look at ORP would be to consider pressure. When you blow up a balloon you use energy that creates force. As long as the balloon remains closed, this force is a “stored potential energy” in this case measured as air pressure. When released, this “potential” energy becomes kinetic energy.   Potential electrical energy in liquid can be measured. It is measured with an ORP meter. These meters display extremely slight, and highly variable differences in the electri

About pH

pH stands for “potential hydrogen”.  It measures alkalinity or acidity  on the pH scale that runs from pH0 to pH14. A pH7 is neutral which means it is neither alkaline nor acidic.  Values below pH7 neutral are said to be acidic and values above pH7 are alkaline.   The scale is logarithmic (like the Richter Scale), meaning each full point increases or decreases by a factor of x10 rather than a single unit. For example a pH8 is  ten times  more alkaline than pH7, and a pH9 would be 10×10, or  one hundred times  more alkaline than neutral. Typical tap water runs at between pH6.5 and pH7.25 although extremes exist. neutral pH = 7,0    /    acidic pH < 7,0    /    alkaline pH > 7,0
