Alkaline Water Systems in Ithaca, MI

Most home alkaline water systems are a mineral cartridge added after reverse osmosis. The RO membrane strips out dissolved solids. The alkaline stage, usually a granular media of calcium and magnesium, raises pH to somewhere around 8 to 9.5 depending on contact time.

Bear Water Purification connects Ithaca, MI homeowners with plumbers who add alkaline stages to existing RO systems or install complete 6 and 7 stage units with the stage built in. The plumber checks flow direction and fitting sizes, since many alkaline cartridges use 1/4 inch quick connects that are easy to fit backward.

Set your expectations honestly. pH reads highest on the first glass after water has sat in the cartridge and lower on long draws. The health claims around alkaline water are thin. Taste is the real reason to want it, and plenty of people prefer it to plain RO water, which can taste flat.

Electric ionizers are a different product with a different install, and they need an outlet.

Call Bear Water Purification at (833) 879-3600 to set up an alkaline water system.

Reverse osmosis FAQs

Questions about reverse osmosis system installation

Questions we hear most often about Alkaline Water Systems in Ithaca, MI.

Talk to a real person
How often should RO filters be changed?
Sediment and carbon prefilters usually need changing every 6 to 12 months. The membrane typically lasts two to four years, and a TDS meter tells you when it is due.
Does an RO system remove nitrate?
Yes, reverse osmosis reduces nitrate and nitrite, which is why it is common on farm-area wells. Look for an NSF/ANSI 58 certification that lists nitrate, and retest the treated water after install.
What water pressure does a reverse osmosis system need?
Most under-sink systems need at least 40 psi and work best at 50 to 60 psi. Below that, a booster pump or permeate pump restores output.
How do I know if my RO membrane needs replacing?
Compare a TDS reading from the regular tap with one from the RO faucet. If the membrane is removing less than about 80 to 85 percent of dissolved solids, it is time to replace it.
Do I need UV with my reverse osmosis system?
On treated city water, usually not. On a private well, a cistern or after a positive bacteria test, a UV stage adds protection that RO alone does not give.
