EVObooster

What is the difference between the EVObooster and ionizers?

In general, the concentration of minerals in acidic or alkaline water is the same as in the original water. Many claim that the "beneficial minerals" are increased in alkaline water and that all the "bad minerals and toxins (e.g. fluoride, THMs, lead etc.)" are eliminated in acidic water. This is of course not true! No minerals are added, the ions are merely sorted according to their charge (+ / -). This imbalance of positive and negative minerals is more harmful than beneficial for the human organism. Last but not least, toxins such as heavy metals, pesticides, hormones, microplastics etc. are only partially filtered out, depending on whether the charge is positive or negative.

 

It was not until 2007-2010 that scientists and researchers discovered that the therapeutic property in alkaline ionized water is the molecular hydrogen and not the alkaline minerals.

 

Some ionizers do not contain sufficient quantities of dissolved hydrogen gas or at least their concentration is below the detection limit of 0.01 ppm.

 

Other water ionizers can produce sufficient amounts of hydrogen, but due to their production of alkaline water, the electrodes tend to scale quickly, which prevents the hydrogen gas from dissolving in the water. Therefore, without cleaning the systems with citric acid or vinegar, the concentration of hydrogen can also fall below 0.01 ppm within a few days to weeks, depending on the source water and use.

 

Undissolved hydrogen gas can also be detected in some cases with conventional water ionizers, where the water looks "milky" or "foggy" due to all the large hydrogen bubbles. So just because a water looks milky, or you can see a lot of bubbles in the water, does not mean that the water has a high concentration of molecular hydrogen. In fact, the concentration may even be below detection.

 

From a chemical point of view, H+ is responsible for the acidic pH value in water. In our EVObooster, H+ immediately turns into H2 and thus balances out to a neutral pH value.

Wir arbeiten mit unserem EVObooster aber nur mit der Produktion von reinem molekularem Wasserstoff. Ohne Mineralien-Verschiebungen oder eine Änderung des PH-Wertes.

 

In summary, the American FDA warns against drinking ionized hydrogen water. Also, the concentration of over 1600 PPmol is not even possible, as propagated by Elyson, for example.

 

This is because the natural saturation limit here is 1200PPmol. Otherwise you would have to work with pressure.

Why is hydrogen water the scientifically best possible water to drink?

Hydrogen is a selective antioxidant, unlike other antioxidants, so it can be used without concern for antioxidant accumulation and at best in place of other non-selective antioxidant compounds. The use of hydrogen in sports is a new field and about 30 human studies confirm its efficacy in sports, with only a few studies finding minimal or no effects in athletes.

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32015786/

 

Even the publisher "Nature" published a significant study on molecular hydrogen. Nature is the world's most cited interdisciplinary journal according to the Journal Citation Reports and the journal with the highest impact factor in its category. Alongside the US journal Science, it is the world's most highly regarded journal for the natural sciences.

 

However, it is important to distinguish that hydrogen acts as an antioxidant in a different way. We are talking here about the morphological properties of hydrogen. We separate the hydrogen atom from the oxygen atom, which means that a large number of free electrons enter the body via water (since molecular hydrogen is negatively charged). Typically, these enter the cells and pair up with the hydroxyl radicals (the most harmful free radicals), which are responsible for our oxidative stress, so they are no longer harmful. Reducing oxidative stress has endless benefits. Oxidative stress à inflammation à disease and injury.

 

Several studies have shown that regeneration is reduced by up to 50% (half) of the time. In addition, far less lactate or even none at all can form during exercise and the legs remain stimulated for over 90 minutes (stimulates blood circulation). It also leads to a significant increase in cognitive ability and brain function. To give an example, 1 liter of hydrogen water has the same antioxidant effect as 10 squeezed lemons (for comparison: H2 has a weight of 2 g /mol, vitamin C on the other hand 176.2 g /mol). Hydrogen penetrates both aqueous and fat-rich environments: Even areas of the body that are otherwise difficult to access are reached by hydrogen: brain, eyes, cell nucleus, cell organelles such as mitochondria and Golgi apparatus (hormone formation).

 

Excessive oxidative damage is an important factor as the mitochondrial respiratory chain is a significant source of damaging reactive oxygen species; however, despite the clinical importance of mitochondrial oxidative damage, antioxidants have had limited therapeutic success. This may be due to the fact that antioxidants are not selectively taken up by mitochondria [55-57]. Since H2 effectively reaches the cell nucleus and mitochondria, the protection of nuclear DNA and mitochondria suggests a preventive effect on lifestyle-related diseases, cancer and the aging process [12]. In addition, H2 crosses the blood-brain barrier, which most antioxidant compounds cannot; this is another advantage of H2.

 

Despite their cytotoxic effects, low concentrations of ROS, such as O2- and H2O2, function as signaling molecules and regulate apoptosis, cell proliferation and differentiation. Unexpectedly and remarkably, as mentioned above, recent studies indicate that excess antioxidants increase mortality and cancer rates [9, 11, 59-62] because they may impair some essential defense mechanisms [13, 60, 63-67]. At higher concentrations, H2O2 is converted to hypochlorous acid by myeloperoxidase to ward off bacterial invasion [68]. In addition, NO acts as a neurotransmitter and is essential for vasodilatation [69].

 

In contrast, H2 has more advantages in terms of toxicity: H2 has no cytotoxicity even at high concentrations. In addition, safety standards have been established for high concentrations of hydrogen gas for inhalation, as hydrogen gas is used under high pressure in gas mixtures for deep divers to prevent decompression sickness and arterial gas thrombi.

Based on stoichiometry, one molecule of vitamin C can theoretically neutralize two free radicals, which is identical in quantity to molecular hydrogen.

 

But if we drink 2dl of hydrogen-rich water at a concentration of 1000 ppb, we ingest the same number of "antioxidant molecules" (hydrogen gas) as ingesting 1 liter of the "antioxidant" (vitamin C) or 10 squeezed lemons.

 

Molecular hydrogen strengthens antioxidant enzymes in the body; with an increased vitamin C intake, the vitamin C will even noticeably prevent this strengthening.

 

How does molecular hydrogen differ from antioxidants in food?

 

  • Molecular hydrogen promotes the stomach's own hydrogen production.
  • Molecular hydrogen only attacks the harmful free radicals (hydroxyl radicals), whereas antioxidants also attack the beneficial free radicals
  • Molecular hydrogen leaves no residue after the neutralization of free radicals
  • Molecular hydrogen increases our body's own antioxidant system, antioxidants do not
  • Molecular hydrogen also acts as a signaling molecule, so many other benefits are achievable
  • Molecular hydrogen is the smallest molecule and can easily enter the cell (note: H2 weighs only 2g/mol, whereas vitamin C, for example, weighs 176.2g/mol)
  • Molecular hydrogen has no known toxic effects, not even at high doses like antioxidants

 

However, it should be noted that almost all antioxidants are also radicals and not selective. Selective antioxidants explicitly neutralize the harmful free hydroxyl radicals. H2 is such a selective antioxidant and that is why it is so valuable.

Why is hydrogen water from ionizers dangerous?

A water molecule (H2O) consists of oxygen and hydrogen. In the liquid, these particles are present in a dissociated (separated, from the Latin dissociare = to separate) form, as H+ and OH- ions.

 

The water molecule dissociates (from the Latin dissociare = to separate) into a hydrogen ion (H+) and a hydroxide ion (OH-)
H2O= H+ + OH-

 

These ions have certain properties: The hydrogen ions (H+, ions with a positive charge) act as a strong acid, the hydroxide ions (OH-, ions with a negative charge) as a strong base. In pure water, these ions are present in the same concentration at 25 °C, i.e. in a ratio of 1:1. The pH value is 7, so the water is neutral.

 

If this ratio changes, the pH value also changes:

 

  • More hydrogen ions and fewer hydroxide ions
    → Solution becomes more acidic
    → pH value decreases
  • fewer hydrogen ions and more hydroxide ions
    → solution becomes more basic/alkaline
    → pH value increases

 

The hydroxide (OH -) is higher in alkaline water according to the definition of pH, but it is not a biological antioxidant. The therapeutic agent in ionized water is clearly dissolved molecular hydrogen gas (H2).

 

Those unfamiliar with chemistry often use hydroxyl and hydroxide interchangeably - even though they are completely different species. The hydroxide ion is not radical reactive at all, as it contains stable paired electrons.

 

The FDA recommends only 500-1000ml as daily consumption! Excessive drinking can cause ulcers, gastrointestinal disorders, skin rashes and dizziness!

Where is the EVObooster installed?

The EVObooster is connected after the EVOfilter or a similar high-performance filter. The treated water is then dispensed from a separate or reusable tap.

Can I install the EVObooster myself?

The EVObooster is easy to install and can be installed by yourself. However, we recommend having the installation of the combination package, including EVOfilter and EVOcharge, carried out by a specialist.

Does the EVObooster require maintenance and how much does it cost?

Maintenance is not absolutely necessary, but after approx. 20,000 liters (approx. 10 years) the efficiency of the hydrogen enrichment starts to decrease. From then on, the appliance can be replaced with a new one for maximum performance. You will receive a CHF 400 discount on the price of a new appliance.

Why is drinking hydrogen water recommended?

Drinking hydrogen water is highly recommended because hydrogen is the most powerful selective antioxidant for eliminating free radicals, reducing oxidative stress, which in turn is the cause of most diseases and premature ageing. As the smallest element in the universe, hydrogen also penetrates where other antioxidants cannot, such as nerve cells, the cell nucleus and the brain barrier. A glass of Evodrop hydrogen water has the same antioxidant power as ten squeezed lemons. Many independent studies worldwide prove that hydrogen water has a preventative effect on many symptoms of illness and also has an anti-inflammatory effect. This shortens recovery times and ensures maximum performance.

 

What happens to the excess molecules?

This is where the EVObooster also differs from conventional hydrogen generators/ionizers. Although these separate water and oxygen, the oxidative or oxygen component is not discharged, but paradoxically left in the same water. This results in compounds such as brown gas, oxyhydrogen gas and ozone, which are harmful to cells instead of promoting them. The EVObooster, on the other hand, removes excess molecules that are harmful to cells so that you can enjoy the purest hydrogen water.

How much hydrogen water should I drink per day?

In general, we should drink between 1 and 3 liters of water. It is recommended to drink only hydrogen-treated water, but even one glass a day would be very beneficial for regulating our oxidation levels.

Can babies, pregnant women and old people drink water containing hydrogen?

Yes, the hydrogen-treated water simply helps us maintain the right level of oxidation for good health, without any side effects.

Can pets drink hydrogen water?

Naturally. The water is also beneficial for the animals. Give it a try!

Why do you need to take antioxidants?

Every time we breathe in, 2 % of the oxygen entering our body is converted into bad oxygen, the so-called "free radicals". This bad oxygen can be converted into good oxygen by an electrical charge of antioxidants. If we do not supply it with this charge through antioxidants, it absorbs it from our cells, causing them to become diseased or die, a process known to us as "oxidation". In addition, the lifestyle in industrialized countries increases the level of oxidation due to poor diet, pollution, stress, etc... As we age, we also need to take more antioxidants because our body produces fewer antioxidant enzymes.

When does hydrogen work?

From the very first moment you can feel more energy, hydration, general well-being, better digestion, a better feeling of recovery. But as far as important improvements are concerned, we only experience them after a few weeks or even months if we manage to reduce oxidative stress, the cause of most illnesses and premature ageing.

Can I use any water for the EVObooster?

No. There is bottled water with an excess of minerals. It is recommended to use water with less than 100 mg/l of dry matter content, which corresponds to less than 100 ppm or less than 150 µS/cm. We therefore strongly recommend using our EVOfilter or a similar high-performance filter. Since hydrogen is very small and easily gets everywhere in the body, it is also an optimal transport medium for pollutants. We therefore strongly recommend that you first filter all harmful substances out of the water and use the purest water possible. Basically, care must be taken with the so-called Lourd water ionizers. A small amount of hydrogen can only be detected in the container. As soon as it has been in the glass for a few minutes, the hydrogen decreases immediately. With Evodrop, on the other hand, you can leave the glass for 48 hours. This is a comparison to show you how much more effective the hydrogen from the EVObooster is.

Does the EVObooster filter?

No, which is why we should use "water suitable for human consumption with a low mineral content" to protect the appliance and our health.

Can hydrogen-water from the EVObooster explode?

No. The vaporizing hydrogen from the EVObooster water is always mixed with air and is not flammable in this concentration!

Can hydrogenated water replace antioxidant foods?

No. Even if we drink hydrogen-treated water, the antioxidant vitamins and minerals in food are necessary, as they have other vital functions in addition to the antioxidant ones mentioned above.

Why does the oxidation-reduction potential (ORP) say nothing about the quality?

It is important to note that just because something has a high ORP (negative or positive) does not mean that a reaction will occur. Just like in the illustration with the ball at the top of the hill, it has the "potential" to roll down the hill. But something still has to give the ball the initial "push" (this is called activation energy (Ea)). If the required activation energy is too high, the reaction may never take place. It is also important to note that if something has a negative ORP, this does not mean that it has a physiological antioxidant value. It is the chemical species responsible for generating the ORP value that determines whether or not it can act as a biological antioxidant. For example, a negative ORP can be generated by the addition of vitamin C, molecular hydrogen or aluminum in water, but only vitamin C and molecular hydrogen have physiological benefits. In fact, aluminum can even act as an oxidizing agent and cause exactly what you are trying to prevent. This is an important consideration for many commercial products. So the question should be: "Which chemical species is responsible for generating the negative ORP, and does it have physiological value?" 

Is alkaline healthy and acidic unhealthy?

The misconception is often that acidic foods or water are oxidizing and alkaline foods or water are antioxidant. This raises the question of what about ascorbic acid (vitamin C), which is the epitome of both an acidic and an antioxidant. In fact, most fruits that are high in antioxidants are quite acidic (pH 1-5). The fact is that pH and free radicals are really different chemical reactions. One is acid-base chemistry, the other is oxidation-reduction chemistry. To summarize, the following can be said: If something is acidic, that means it has a higher concentration of H+ ions. Basically, it is important to understand that if we drink alkaline water for several weeks, we destroy our own pH value in the stomach. Water is only ever a weakly buffered acid or base. Its pH value therefore changes very easily and very quickly with the pH value of the environment it enters. The first environment that water enters after drinking is the stomach. The pH value there is between 1.0 and 1.5. If a lot of alkaline water is drunk, this can buffer the stomach acid. This can lead to the stomach producing even more stomach acid. Digestive problems and heartburn can be one of the consequences. The task of modern water research is to develop devices that correct the values of tap water through treatment and return it to the "milieu of health" (≥6000 Ohm, 24-28 rH2, pH 6.4-6.8). According to the laws of human metabolism, water does not have the task of alkalizing the body's environment through high pH values. This effect is caused by metabolic reactions that produce alkalizing foods (which, however, have an acidic pH value per se!). They promote an environment in which metabolic waste products such as uric acid are easily dissolved. Water, on the other hand, has a transportation and cleansing function in the body. If the ohmic resistance of water is below 6000 ohms, its osmotic ability to load itself with metabolic waste products (dissolved from the tissue) is close to 0. It is recommended that you only drink alkaline water for a maximum of 2-3 weeks. As with any cure, it is important to understand that short intervals are most beneficial to the body. It is also important to understand that fruit and vegetables have an alkalizing effect, but have a maximum pH value of around 7 and not over 8 like alkaline water. 

Why is the hydroxide ion (OH-) not an antioxidant?

This misconception probably stems from the following four perspectives: The common fallacy that antioxidants are negative while free radicals are positive, combined with the fact that hydroxide (OH-) has a negative charge. Alkaline ionized water has a high pH and therefore contains more hydroxide (OH-) ions, which are negatively charged. Alkaline ionized water has a negative oxidation-reduction potential (ORP) and has antioxidant activity. The fact that molecular hydrogen (H2) was not recognized as the reason for the -ORP, antioxidant activity and therapeutic effect until around 2007 means that ionized water was introduced to the market decades before H2 was detected. Another thing to consider is what would happen if hydroxide (OH-) acted as an antioxidant and donated an electron. It would turn into the most cytotoxic oxygen radical: the hydroxyl radical (OH).

Alkaline water or hydrogen water - which is better?

Alkaline water is growing in popularity, with sales rising from $47 million in 2014 to $427 million in 2017. According to marketers, alkaline water can correct tissue acidity, preventing or reversing cancer, arthritis and other degenerative diseases.

 

However, there is virtually no evidence to support such claims, and I regularly warned people against drinking alkaline water over eight years ago. Molecular hydrogen, on the other hand, has a number of health benefits, some of which mirror the claims about alkaline water - and for a really good reason.

 

So here I will review these two types of water and the scientific support (or lack thereof) for each, and examine how the benefits of molecular hydrogen have been falsely transferred to alkaline water - mainly out of ignorance.

What is alkaline water?

Alkaline water is water that has been separated into alkaline and acid components by electrolysis. The theory behind alkaline water is that alkaline (ionized) water is a powerful antioxidant with excess electrons that can soak up dangerous free radicals. As reported by Arwa Mahdawi in The Guardian:

 

"Dr. Tanis Fenton, associate professor at the University of Calgary and evidence analyst for Dietitians of Canada, told me that the marketing claims behind alkaline water are based on an old idea called the acid-ash hypothesis.

 

This assumes that eating certain foods such as meat, dairy products and eggs leads to so-called acid ash in your body, which increases your acid levels and causes adverse health effects, including osteoporosis.

 

In 2002, a naturopath named Robert O. Young developed the acid-ash hypothesis into an alkaline diet, with a popular book series called pH Miracle.

 

According to these books, an alkaline diet could treat all kinds of ailments, from poor digestion to cancer. Incidentally, Young was sentenced to three years in prison in 2017 for practicing medicine without a license."

 

According to Fenton - author of a systematic review of the link between alkaline water and cancer - the few studies that show positive results with alkaline water are poorly designed, leading her to conclude that "there is no stringent evidence" that alkaline water provides health benefits.

 

This view is shared by Randy Johnson, who has a Master of Science in Molecular Genetics and whose assessment of the evidence is published on his website Cyber Nook under "Drinking Water Resources: A Review of the Evidence Purportedly Supporting the Health Benefits of Alkaline Water."

Why alkaline water does not work

One of the main reasons why consuming alkaline water may not provide the health benefits associated with alkalinity is that you cannot change the pH of your blood and body this way. As noted by Fenton:

 

"Your body regulates its [blood] pH in a very narrow range because all of our enzymes are designed to have a pH of 7.4. If our pH varied too much, we wouldn't survive."

 

However, your diet, including the water you drink, can change the pH of your urine. Urine is usually acidic and has a pH of 6, which is actually a sign that your kidneys are functioning properly. Regarding the benefits people report when drinking alkaline water, Fenton suggests that the placebo effect plays a role.

 

Initial improvement can also be attributed to detoxification and/or improved hydration in general by simply drinking more water. Finally, alkaline water is often associated with higher mineral concentration, which is known to have beneficial effects, especially when food intake is low.

Understanding the pH value

The concept of the acidity or alkalinity of your body - or water - is based on the pH scale. What is pH? It is simply a measure of the concentration of hydrogen ions. In fact, the acronym "pH" stands for "potentia hydrogenii", or "strength of hydrogen".

 

The higher the pH value of a liquid, the fewer free hydrogen ions (H +) it has; the lower the pH value, the more free hydrogen ions (H +) are present. One pH unit reflects a tenfold change in the ion concentration, so that at a pH value of 7 there are ten times as many hydrogen ions available as at a pH value of 8.

 

The pH scale ranges from 0 to 14 and a pH value of 7 is neutral. Anything with a pH value below 7 is considered acidic, and anything with a pH value above 7 is alkaline (or basic).

 

The real reason alkaline water is a scam is that it contains no buffers to maintain its pH. Once the alkaline water hits your very acidic stomach, the pH is neutralized because there are no buffers. Truly alkaline water would have an alkaline buffer like baking soda (sodium bicarbonate), which is also our body's natural alkaline buffer.

 

Some have claimed that when the alkaline water is neutralized by the stomach acid, the bicarbonate ions are released into the blood and thus have an alkalizing effect. This would be the case if the alkaline water effectively neutralized all of the stomach acid (like baking soda), but alkaline water does not neutralize any significant amount of stomach acid; the stomach acid completely neutralizes the alkaline water. So there is no "net alkalizing effect".

 

The natural water on our planet has a pH value between 6.5 and 8.5, depending on soil and vegetation, seasonal fluctuations and weather conditions, as well as the time of day, which reacts to sunlight. Human activities also affect the pH of our water as toxic industrial pollutants are released.

 

In particular, the pH value appears to have a major influence on your mitochondria. Studies have shown that normal cells die under extremely alkaline conditions as a result of a change in mitochondrial function.

 

As Fenton states, "alkaline water is a solution to a problem that doesn't need to be solved". In fact, it makes sense to drink water that occurs naturally. This excludes alkaline water with a pH of 9.5 and higher.

The beginnings of hydrogen water production shed light on the myth of alkaline water

Interestingly, in addition to Young embracing and endorsing the acid-ash hypothesis, there is another piece of history that explains why the alkaline water myth has gained validity. The Molecular Hydrogen Institute explains the history of electrolyzed reduced water or ERW (the term most commonly used for alkaline water in the scientific literature):

 

"Studies on ERW began in Japan in the 1930s, and in 1965 the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare approved ERW as a medicinal substance with potential to improve gastrointestinal symptoms...

 

In the decades that followed, anecdotal and scientific evidence accumulated showing many other benefits of ERW, such as protecting DNA from free radical damage, increasing glucose uptake, improving diabetes, preventing premature cell death, protecting the liver, preventing lipid oxidation, and others. However, it was uncertain how ERW produced these benefits."

 

Unfortunately, this is the reason for the misunderstanding about the pH value. However, as the Institute states, "It is now well established that the main active ingredient responsible for the benefits is attributed to dissolved molecular hydrogen gas." In short, the benefits, if any, are actually due to the presence of molecular hydrogen and have nothing to do with the pH of the water. Dr. Kyu-Jae Lee, a hydrogen gas researcher, says:

 

"In the 1990s, I began studying alkaline ionized water and published scientific articles about its antioxidant, anti-cancer and anti-diabetic effects, but didn't really understand why the water worked. It was hard to believe. After further research, I have now confirmed that the benefits of alkaline ionized water are due to the hydrogen gas produced during electrolysis."

 

Another researcher, Dr. Mami Noda, adds:

 

"When testing all the variables of water (e.g. minerals, pH, H2, etc.), it was clear that only H2 had a benefit... Our 2009 publication of an MPTP-induced mouse model of Parkinson's disease also showed the beneficial effects of H2.

 

We later discovered that the benefits in this model were mediated by H2-induced gastric ghrelin secretion via an ss1-adrenergic receptor-dependent pathway. Although the effect of hydrogen in Parkinson's disease has now been confirmed in a human clinical trial, further investigation is required to uncover the molecular mechanisms responsible for the therapeutic benefits of H2.
Due to the high safety profile of hydrogen, its ease of administration and its promising medicinal effects, as a pharmacologist I feel compelled to further investigate H2 as a novel medicinal gas."

Alkaline water is unlikely to prevent cancer

One of the purported health benefits of drinking alkaline water is cancer prevention. However, much of the research is against alkalinity in the treatment of cancer.

 

According to Robert Gillies, who has studied tumor formation and acidification at the Moffitt Cancer Center, tumors naturally produce their own acidification, even in an alkaline cell structure.
Scientists developing anticancer drug prototypes that selectively kill tumor cells by interfering with the regulation of intracellular pH also report that alkaline treatments do not have the desired effect, whereas highly acidic treatments do!

 

Even more interesting is a 2005 study by the National Cancer Institute that re-examined the use of vitamin C (ascorbic acid) to treat cancer. They found that ascorbic acid in pharmacologic doses administered intravenously successfully killed cancer cells without harming normal cells.

 

This is another example of cancer cells being susceptible to acidity as opposed to alkalinity. So it seems clear that the link between alkalinity and cancer has been oversimplified by those who jump to conclusions.

EVOdrink

How does the EVOdrink's filtration differ from conventional activated carbon filters?

It is important to understand that a supplier's claim to filter pesticides is normally based on the pore size of the filter. As a rule, this is a maximum of 0.1 micrometers. Pesticides or other pollutants smaller than 0.1 micrometers cannot be effectively removed from the water. Carafe filters can usually only filter up to 2 micrometers, which means that many contaminants are not filtered out. Some companies do not communicate this explicitly and do not specify the exact pore size. It is advisable to insist on appropriate proof. Conventional activated carbon filters can only filter particles down to a size of 0.1 micrometers. In comparison, Evodrop, in cooperation with the world's largest testing institute, SGS, has proven that pollutants can be effectively filtered out down to a size of 0.002 micrometers. Compared to conventional activated carbon filters on the market, the EVOdrink filters over 99% of all pollutants out of the water. With other well-known manufacturers, for example, only the closure is patented, while the filter performance is only a maximum of 60%. Normal activated carbon filters have to be replaced every 6 months at the latest due to contamination. The EVOdrink cartridge, on the other hand, remains germ-free thanks to its patented alloy and has a service life of at least one year. The EVOdrink is the only filter on the market that can be connected directly to the cold water system and guarantees filtration of over 99% of all contaminants at a flow rate of 4 liters per minute. It is important to note that manganese, iron and similar substances are not heavy metals and therefore cannot be removed by the filter. The greatest advantage of the EVOdrink is that no pollutants are released back into the water over time, as its structure is fundamentally different to that of activated carbon filters. With activated carbon filters, channels develop over time through which pollutants can re-enter the water.

What makes the EVOdrink so special?

Our high-quality activated carbon has a surface area of up to 1500 square meters per gram (competition 1000 square meters). This means that only a few grams of the highly porous material exceed the surface area of a football pitch. Thanks to our special modulation, we have a larger surface area, which prevents the formation of channels and ensures consistent filter quality. With conventional membranes, the filter quality fluctuates or is volatile, which can lead to a significant release of pollutants into the water under extreme conditions. The advantage of our EVOdrink is that it consists of 70% micropores, which have a pore size of less than two nanometers (0.002um). This larger volume of micropores creates more surface area for adsorption. Conventional activated carbon filters have only about 10% micropores. Unlike conventional activated carbon filters, the EVOdrink has a capillary effect, which enables it to filter quickly and efficiently by adsorption. Conventional activated carbon filters would not provide sufficient contact time or would restrict the flow too much to be useful. There are many products on the market that are prone to channeling. These clog the filter and consequently the effectiveness is significantly reduced. We attach great importance to sustainability. Our filter therefore prevents channel formation, which increases the service life of our system up to tenfold. 10-15 times higher adsorption rate 10-100 times higher mass transfer coefficient 10-15 times the amount of impurities removed at the same flow rate The practical test quickly showed that we obviously have an improved chlorine removal rate than conventional activated carbon. Even after 5,000 liters, we were at over 98% and conventional activated carbon filters at 80%. Our iodine value, the most basic parameter for characterizing activated carbon performance, is 1,800 mg/g. Competitor products are at a maximum of 1,200mg/g! Fact: One gram of our material has an adsorption surface the size of a football pitch.

Is it a type of osmosis filter?

No. Because the minerals remain in the water. Only the pollutants are successfully filtered out of the water. Only phosphates, fluorides and nitrates cannot be filtered because the molecules are smaller. Watch out for ionizers that energize the water. It's like sticking your finger in a socket when you're sick in the hope that the virus will die.

Does the filter need to be replaced? How often and how much does it cost?
  • The EVODrink filter must be replaced once a year. Costs 139CHF.
  • The EVODrink is guaranteed for five years.
Drinking water problems in Switzerland

Das Problem liegt darin, dass lediglich 50 Fremd- und Schadstoffe getestet werden in unserem Hahnenwasser. Mikroplastik beispielsweise wird nicht einmal getestet, somit liegt kein Grenzwert vor. Mikroplastik sowie Aluminium sind extrem schädlich, da sie direkt im Gehirn landen und entsprechend Krebserregend sind. Es gibt über 3000 Fremd- und Schadstoffe im Wasser. Hierbei muss man verstehen, dass z. B. die Produzenten in der Landwirtschaft nicht genau angeben, was für Mittel an Pestiziden und Fungizide gespritzt werden. Folglich ist es für eine Labor faktisch unmöglich, die entsprechenden Schadstoffe aus dem Wasser zu eruieren. Sie tappen wortwörtlich im Dunkeln. Genauso wie beim Doping finden Hersteller immer neue Wege, um die Regulatoren auszutricksen. Siehe Fall Glyphosat. Neu wird einfach anderes eingesetzt. Gleiches bei Plastik. Mittel werden oft als PLA frei deklariert, wobei es PLS oder Ähnliches enthält, was ebenso schädlich ist. Anhand von folgendem Beispiel gibt es eine weitere Erklärung. Wenn man beim Arzt Blut abgibt, dann muss man dem Labor spezifisch melden, was untersucht werden soll. Einfach so kann das Labor nicht erkennen, ob Sie einen Vitaminmangel haben oder gar HIV. Selbst von den kontrollierten 50 Fremd- und Schadstoffen werden die Grenzwerte immer wieder überschritten. Wobei auch hier dann die Argumentation der Politik wenig befriedigend ist mit der Aussage, die Werte seien nach wie vor absolut bedenkenlos. Jährlich werden jedoch die Grenzwerte gegen oben korrigiert und diese schliesslich nicht mehr allzu sehr zu überschreiten. Trotzdem sind selbst Grenzwerte anzuzweifeln, siehe hierbei die Nitrat-Studie in Skandinavien, mit nur 15mg/l 20% konnte man eine erhöhte Darmkrebsrate nachweisen. Es kommt nicht anders, wenn es um die Medizin geht. Medikamentenrückstände sind ein unmöglich zu lösendes Problem für unsere Klärwerke. Besonders wenn man an die Chemotherapie denkt und an die unterschiedlichsten Antibiotika, an all die Schmerzmittel, Antibabypillen sowie Reinigungs- und Desinfektionsmitteln die Jahr für Jahr neu entwickelt werden um noch resistenter zu sein. Hierbei muss man verstehen, dass in unseren Klärwerken die ganze Arbeit nach der Filtration die Mikroorganismen übernehmen. Also gesunde Bakterien, welche das Wasser reinigen. Es ist jedoch unmöglich, für ein Bakterium ein Antibiotika, welches dafür entwickelt wurde, resistent zu sein, damit es der Körper nicht abweisen kann, einfach aus dem Wasser zu reinigen. Und auch hier gilt, was man nicht kennt, kann nicht geprüft werden. Unzählige Patente liegen vor, welche die Geheimnisse der Medizin in sich tragen. Die Labore wissen gar nicht, welche Mittel Sie testen sollen. Natürlich weiss die Politik Bescheid und auch der K-Tipp sowie verschiedene andere kritische Zeitschriften berichten darüber, doch diese Problematik tatsächlich angehen zu wollen, würde jegliches Budget sprängen. Die Folgen wären viel zu gross, für das, dass man sich der Thematik tatsächlich stellen würde. Letzten Endes appelliert auch das SVGW an die Bürger, dass jeder für sich selbst verantwortlich ist. Daher wird im Ausland mir Chlor gearbeitet. Ganz nach dem Motto, dann lieber Chlor als all die Schadstoffe. Es gibt noch zwei Branchen, die man gerne vergisst, zumal man davon ausgeht, dass die nicht mit Schadstoffen zu tun haben und keine Chemie zum Einsatz kommt. Nämlich die Industrie und der Bau. Noch schwieriger als in der Medizin, ist es nachzuverfolgen, welche Chemikalien eingesetzt werden. Hier tappt ein Labor ebenfalls komplett im Dunkeln, und wäre auf die Transparenz der Hersteller angewiesen, wobei kein Gesetz dies vorschreibt. Eine zusätzliche Problematik sind die Rohrleitungen. Hier spricht man von der sogenannten letzte Meile. Je nachdem, was für Rohrleitungen schlussendlich das Wasser ins Haus befördern, können zusätzlich weitere Schadstoffe ins Wasser gelangen wie z. B. Blei, Zement, Kupfer, etc., was durch Blei zu Uranbelastung führt. Im Rahmen eines Monitorings durch das Bundesamt für Gesundheit (BAG) wurde in den 2000er-Jahren unter anderem der Urangehalt des Trinkwassers auf Basis von 5000 Proben in der Schweiz untersucht. Die Ergebnisse wurden wissenschaftlich aufgearbeitet. Hierbei wurde festgestellt, dass höhere Konzentrationen vor allem im Alpenraum festgestellt worden sind, wenn das Wasser aus Grund- oder Quellwasser gewonnen wurde, das „in Kontakt mit uranhaltigen Gesteinen und Sedimenten geriet”. Wichtig ist zu verstehen, dass jegliche Schadstoffe wie Mikroplastik und Schwermetalle auch ganz einfach durch die Luft sowie Hochwasser in unser Trinkwasser gelangen können. Hier spricht man von Fäkalkeime. Es kommen noch alle Schadstoffe auf uns zu, die seit Jahrzehnten unter der Erde liegen, seitens unserer Grosseltern sprich durch Industrialisierung – ebenso wie der kontaminierte Sondermüll der Atomendlager. Fazit: Natürlich brauchen wir Bakterien und Viren. Wir neigen dazu, viel zu sauber und viel zu hygienisch zu leben. Jedoch befindet sich in unserer Nahrung sowie in der Luft mehr als genügend Schadstoffe. Da würde es Sinn machen, das Wasser, welches als Transport und Reinigungsmittel in unserem Körper fungiert, entsprechend möglichst sauber zu sich zu nehmen.

Do I need a separate tap?

No, the EVOdrink can be conveniently connected to the cold water pipe.

Does the EVOdrink generate waste water?

No, the EVOdrink does not generate waste water and does not require electricity.

Is the EVOdrink an activated charcoal filter?

Konventionelle Aktivkohle wird über Extrusion Kompressionsformung hergestellt. Beide Verfahren nutzen granulierte, respektive pulverartige Aktivkohle und kreieren mittels Bindemittel (Kunststoff-Leime oder ähnliches) einen spezifischen Blockfilter. Unsere «Aktivkohle» wird im Nassspinnverfahren auf membranartigen Fasern, wie beispielsweise Rayon karbonisiert, aktiviert und letztendlich gesponnen. Angesichts dessen können wir brillante Ergebnisse zur inneren Oberfläche (m2/g) gegenüber konventionellen Aktivkohlefiltern erzielen. Vor allem basieren unsere Kartuschen überwiegend aus Mikroporen mit einem Durchmesser von <2 Nanometer. Konventionelle Aktivkohle basiert vorwiegend aus Meso- und Makroporen welche eklatant grösser sind (10-50 Nanometer & >50 Nanometer).

Has the EVOdrink been certified?

Yes, the EVOdrink has been certified by ROHS, FDA (America's largest testing body) and Moca (Europe's largest testing body). In addition, the largest test report in the world, SGS, has proven the filter performance of the EVOdrink.

What material is the Evodrink made of?

Our "activated carbon" is carbonized, activated and finally spun on membrane-like fibres such as rayon using the wet spinning process. In view of this, we can achieve brilliant results for the inner surface area (m²/g) compared to conventional activated carbon filters. Above all, our cartridges are predominantly based on micropores with a diameter of ≤2 nanometers. Conventional activated carbon is mainly based on meso- and macropores, which are significantly larger (10-50 nanometers & ≥50 nanometers). In other words, the Evodrink filters at 0.002 micrometers and conventional activated carbon filters at 0.1 micrometers.

EVOfilter

What does the EvoFilter filter out?

The EvoFilter filters 99.99% of all pollutants out of the water.

 

The filtration is one of the deepest on the market, filtering all pollutants down to 0.55 nanometers. A direct competitor, such as reverse osmosis filter systems, is at 1 nanometer, whereby certain pollutants cannot be filtered out of the water.

 

The EvoFilter is also the only filter on the market that has been tested for over 617 pollutants by an accredited Swiss laboratory. The depth of filtration has also been confirmed by an accredited laboratory. Pollutants such as PFAS, chlorothalonil, glyphosate, phosphates, fluoride, nitrates, nitrite, all fungicides, all herbicides, antibiotics and drug residues as well as hormonal residues are filtered out of the water without any problems.

 

The pollutants tested are among the most difficult to filter. Due to the depth of filtration, Evodrop is the only filter on the market that can guarantee that all of the 30,000 known pollutants are completely filtered out of the water.

 

Don't be fooled by the competition, especially carafe manufacturers. They are not filters. Always compare the depth of filtration if you can. The depth of the filtration also shows you the quality of the filtration. We filter at 0.0005 micrometers. A carafe such as Acaia or Britta filters at 5 micrometers.

Are minerals in drinking water important? What does science say?

Water (drinking water and mineral water) contains minerals (especially calcium and magnesium) in varying quantities. On behalf of Forum Trinkwasser e.V. (one of the largest drinking water associations in Germany), scientists at Paderborn University, led by Professor Helmut Heseker, investigated the importance of water in meeting mineral requirements. The long version of the study can be found in the appendix. The scientists came to the conclusion that water low in minerals is ideal for meeting fluid requirements. The German population's need for the most important minerals is primarily covered by solid food. So-called "organic" biologically available minerals.

 

Inorganic mineral salts (not processed by nature) from minerals in water are very difficult for our organism to utilize and are even a burden. They accumulate on cholesterol crystals, for example, and then form hardenings and constrictions in the vessels in patches, also known as arteriosclerotic plaques. Over time, these lead to functional impairment of the kidneys. Kidney and gallstones also develop as a result. You are also familiar with this effect from water pipes, which calcify if there is too much calcium in the water.

 

Minerals are like all other nutrients - the body can absorb them best when they are organically bound and bioavailable (processed by nature). The reason for this is that, in addition to the nutrients, plants contain numerous secondary substances, such as enzymes, which promote the absorption of nutrients in the body. This is the case with vitamin D3, for example, which can only be absorbed by the body with the addition of K2.

 

Many people will be familiar with the example of vitamin C: if you consume it in extracted form, known as ascorbic acid, a large proportion of it is not utilized at all. The vitamin C contained in an apple or an orange, on the other hand, is very well absorbed by the body. The situation is similar with minerals: minerals and trace elements dissolved in water that are not organically bound are insufficiently absorbed by the body's cells and ultimately have to be excreted via the kidneys. As the kidneys only excrete a certain amount each day, everything that accumulates in the body beyond this is stored temporarily. Especially in people who drink very little or eat a very salty diet, waste products (gallstones, kidney stones) can quickly form in the body.

 

There is an experiment from school where you put a cucumber in distilled water, for example, and then see how it swells. The reason for this is the so-called osmotic pressure that exists in all cells of organic life. This is due to the fact that there is a constant exchange between the inside and outside of a body cell, which regulates the salt content in the cell. If distilled water, which contains practically no salt, suddenly flows around the cells, the salt content inside the cell and the water outside the cell must of course be balanced out immediately. This increases the pressure in the cell considerably and can cause it to burst. However, to deduce from this that the same thing would happen to us as soon as we drink distilled water is of course a clear sign of ignorance. This cannot happen simply because each of us has large amounts of salt in our bodies. There is a lot of salt in the stomach alone from the last meal, which immediately mixes with the water we drink, meaning that it has been distilled for the longest time. The proof of this is provided by tens of millions of people who produce their daily drinking water with the help of distillation apparatus and therefore drink distilled water every day. On the contrary: people drink more water and the detoxification processes are supported, making them feel wonderful and good.

 

As the French hydrologist Prof. Vincent noted, the purer our drinking water is, the better the purification and detoxification processes in the body work. It should also be mentioned that water filtered using an ultra-nanomembrane is by no means distilled water but, unlike distilled water, still contains several milligrams of trace elements per liter. So there is no need to worry.

 

Opinions of doctors and scientists on minerals in water

 

Dr. med. Petra Bracht, health expert for the magazine "Fliege - Das Magazin" says: "Nobody likes to expose a washing machine to water containing limescale. Just as soft water has better washing qualities because it can penetrate the fabric more intensively, it also reaches the remotest parts of your body. Do you want to suffer the same calcification that threatens your washing machine? - So drink still, soft water that is as low in calcium and minerals as possible. Your body would rather get these from the organic combination of fruit and vegetables."

 

In the Austrian magazine "Gesundheit" we read:

 

"Optimal water hardness: Kidney stones occur more frequently in regions with hard, contaminated drinking water than in areas with soft, pure water. The reason: soft water is unsaturated and can therefore absorb and flush out salts, heavy metals and environmental toxins in the body. For the home test: Water that detoxifies the body must have a maximum German hardness of 5°."

 

The famous physician, Dr. Barbara Hendel, writes in the wellness bestseller "Water & Salt":

 

"The minerals in mineral water are therefore more harmful than good because they prevent the elimination of waste products. We therefore only recommend water with a low mineral content of less than one gram per liter, the so-called acratopegens."

 

To the study

 

What does the WHO say about minerals in drinking water?

 

In Europe, water with a high mineral content has a long tradition. Although the WHO accepts that some mineral waters can make a useful contribution to meeting nutrient requirements due to their content of essential nutrients, it also points out that there is still no convincing scientific evidence for the postulated positive effects of such mineral waters. For these reasons, the WHO refrains from specifying minimum quantities for essential (= vital) nutrients in its drinking water guidelines.

 

The World Health Organization (WHO) also points out that the use of drinking water - including water with very low mineral content or even distilled water - has not been found to have any adverse health effects in many countries around the world.

 

The importance of water as a source of minerals is clearly overestimated. Minerals are mainly ingested with solid foods. A varied mixed diet, as recommended by the German Nutrition Society and many other international specialist societies, ensures that the body's needs are met with essential vitamins and minerals. This type of diet also minimizes the risk of excessive intake of undesirable nutrients.

Why do we humans only absorb minerals very poorly through our drinking water?

The renowned NIH, National Library of Medicine, has asked itself this question. Doctors and scientists trust this institution.

 

In addition, on behalf of Forum Trinkwasser e.V. (one of the largest drinking water associations in Germany), scientists from Paderborn University, led by Professor Helmut Heseker, investigated the importance of water in meeting mineral requirements. The long version of the study can be found in the appendix. The scientists came to the conclusion that water low in minerals is ideal for meeting fluid requirements. The German population's need for the most important minerals is primarily covered by solid food. So-called "organic" biologically available minerals.

 

To summarize:

 

Minerals in drinking water correspond to a maximum of 10% for calcium and 7% for magnesium of the recommended daily intake of 2 liters per day. Most trace elements are not even detectable and it has been scientifically proven that they cannot be easily absorbed by humans through drinking water.

 

Here is the German summary and here is the complete original study.

Study on the nutritional importance of drinking water in Germany

Is it a type of osmosis filter?

Exactly, it's a membrane filter in the nano range, reverse osmosis is in a similar range, but the systems differ in terms of efficiency, water consumption and energy - which speaks in our favor.

 

Reverse osmosis is the most efficient and best-known filtration system in the world. The advantage is that the important trace elements are retained in the water and only all pollutants are filtered out of the water.

 

Watch out for ionizers that energize the water. It's like sticking your finger in a socket when you're sick in the hope that the virus will die.

How do minerals behave in animals?

Inorganic minerals release free ions that are reactive and likely to bind to other food components. This property can affect the stability of the vitamins and minerals in the premix and impair the absorption of minerals by the pig during digestion.

 

It is less likely that organic minerals will bind to other food components, as the minerals are already present in a complex with organic active ingredients. The organic forms are thought to minimize the interactions and improve the absorption and bioavailability of minerals (Liu et al., 2014). However, higher bioavailability of organic minerals does not always result in improved growth (Creech et al., 2004; Ma et al., 2012) or reproductive performance (Peters and Mahan, 2008; Peters et al., 2010; Ma et al., 2014). Typically, the use of organic mineral sources is more common in the diets of sows and nursery pigs (Flohr et al., 2016).

 

Decisions on which mineral source to use should be based primarily on the price per unit of the bioavailable element, with organic minerals typically being more bioavailable but inorganic minerals usually being more economical. A list of the chemical forms in which inorganic macrominerals and trace elements are available can be found in Table 1 and Table 2 (NRC, 2012).

Why the EVOfilter and not tap water?

The problem is that only 50 foreign substances and pollutants are tested in our tap water.

 

Microplastics, for example, are not even tested and there is therefore no limit value. Although microplastics and aluminum are extremely harmful, as they end up directly in the brain and are therefore carcinogenic.

 

There are over 3000 foreign substances and pollutants in water. It is important to understand that in agriculture, for example, producers do not specify exactly which pesticides and fungicides are sprayed. As a result, it is virtually impossible for a laboratory to determine the relevant pollutants from the water. They are literally groping in the dark.

 

Just as with doping, manufacturers are always finding new ways to trick the regulators. See the case of glyphosate. The same with plastic. It's called PLA-free, but it contains PLS or other compounds that are just as harmful.

 

Explained differently using an example. When you give blood to the doctor, you have to tell the laboratory specifically what you want to be tested for. The laboratory cannot simply tell whether you have a vitamin deficiency or even HIV.

 

Even of the 50 controlled pollutants and contaminants, the limit values are repeatedly exceeded. Here, too, the arguments put forward by politicians are not very satisfactory with the statement that the values are still absolutely safe. However, the limit values are revised upwards every year and ultimately they are not exceeded too much.

 

Nevertheless, even limit values are to be doubted, see the nitrate study in Scandinavia with only 15mg/l 20% an increased intestinal cancer rate could be proven.

 

It is no different when it comes to medicine. Drug residues are an impossible problem for our sewage treatment plants to solve. Especially when you think of chemotherapy and all the different antibiotics, painkillers, anti-inflammatory creams, birth control pills, cleaning agents and disinfectants that are developed year after year to be even more resistant.

 

It is important to understand that in our sewage treatment plants, the microorganisms do all the work after filtration. In other words, healthy bacteria that purify the water. However, it is impossible for a bacterium to simply purify an antibiotic from the water that has been developed to be resistant so that the body cannot reject it.

 

And here too, what you don't know cannot be tested. There are countless patents that contain the secrets of medicine. The laboratories don't even know what to look for.

 

Of course, politicians know about it, and the K-Tipp and various other critical magazines also report on it, but actually wanting to tackle this problem would go beyond any budget. The consequences would be far too great to actually tackle the issue. Ultimately, the SVGW also appeals to the public that everyone is responsible for themselves. The 99% is consumer water and only 1% is used as drinking water.

 

This is why chlorine is used abroad. True to the motto: better chlorine than germs.

 

There are two other sectors that people tend to forget, especially as they assume that they don't have anything to do with pollutants and that no chemicals are used. These are industry and construction. It is even more difficult than in medicine to track which chemicals are used. A laboratory is also completely in the dark here and would have to rely on the transparency of the manufacturers, although this is not required by law.

 

The pipelines are an additional problem. This is known as the last mile. Depending on what kind of pipes ultimately carry the water into the house, other pollutants can also get into the water, such as lead, cement and copper. Lead can lead to uranium contamination.

 

As part of a monitoring program carried out by the Federal Office of Public Health (FOPH) in the 2000s, the uranium content of drinking water in Switzerland was examined on the basis of 5,000 samples. The results were scientifically analyzed. It was established that higher concentrations were found, particularly in the Alpine region, when the water was obtained from groundwater or spring water that was "in contact with uranium-containing rocks and sediments."

 

It is important to understand that any pollutants such as microplastics and heavy metals can also easily get into our drinking water through the air and floods. This is known as fecal bacteria.

 

In addition, we have to deal with all the pollutants that have been underground for decades, i.e. from our grandparents' industrialization - as well as the contaminated hazardous waste from nuclear waste repositories.

 

Conclusion:

 

Of course we need bacteria and viruses. We tend to live far too clean and far too hygienically. However, there are more than enough pollutants in our food and in the air. It would therefore make sense to consume water, which acts as a means of transportation and cleansing in our bodies, as cleanly as possible. If you don't filter the water, you are the filter.

Why the EVOfilter and not mineral water?

Based on the above findings on the subject of tap water, it would be obvious to drink mineral water instead of tap water. However, you should also be aware that there are only around 20 limit values in the Mineral Water Ordinance that must be adhered to. This is even less than for tap water. This means that mineral water does not have to be controlled anywhere near as strictly as our tap water. Whether individual manufacturers voluntarily carry out stricter controls remains to be seen. Most mineral waters are also bottled in plastic bottles, which contain carcinogenic plasticizers. These release oestrogens and microplastics into the water. If you now think that mineral water in glass bottles is better, then unfortunately it has to be said that glass is much more harmful to the environment, as a glass bottle has to be recycled up to 50 times before it is CO2-neutral. Another problem with mineral water is its nitrate content. In addition, pollutants have been detected in the water of Evian and Volvic, for example. The level of uranium was extremely high. This element can damage the kidneys and lungs and accumulate in the body. The element vanadium was also found in Volvic water. Why is nothing happening? Because you buy the water voluntarily!

 

Apart from the health risks, with the EVOfilter you no longer have to carry heavy loads. You can enjoy clean, healthy drinking water from home at any time and save a lot of money at the same time.

Do the filters need to be replaced? How often and how much does it cost?

Every 10,000 liters at 6-8 liters per day, i.e. after approx. 4.5-6 years. Costs 499CHF, for 699CHF the maintenance is carried out by our service technician and for 990CHF you can extend the warranty by a further five years.

 

The EVOfilter comes with a five-year warranty. The warranty can be extended. Please note, unlike competitors such as Truu Water, we do not only cover the housing, but the entire system.

How do I know when maintenance is due?

The EVOfilter emits an acoustic signal after 10,000 liters when the filter is used. The pre-filter and the two membranes should then be replaced within the next 2000 liters.

Can I service the EVOfilter myself?

Filter maintenance is child's play in two minutes thanks to a bayonet catch.

Where is the EVOfilter installed?

The EVOfilter is installed at any water connection in your home. This can be the kitchen, the cellar or the bathroom. The EVOfilter is not installed directly on the main inlet water pipe in the house!

What do I need to install the EVOfilter?

You need a cold water connection, a power socket, enough space for the filter and a waste water siphon.

Can I carry out the installation myself?

Of course, we leave the choice of installation to you and you can install the EVOfilter yourself. However, we recommend professional installation by a plumbing specialist, who can also guarantee the installation.

How long do I have a warranty on the EVOfilter?

We offer a five-year guarantee on the entire filter, provided that the filter has been installed correctly and is used as intended. Optionally, the warranty can be extended by a further five years for an additional charge.

How is it ensured that the filter or the system itself does not suddenly become a source of bacteria?

The system is automatically flushed every four hours to prevent bacteria from building up and multiplying - the Swiss standard is once a day. This means we are well above the SVGW values. In addition, our membrane is smaller than the bacteria and no more bacteria can form. Finally, the structure of the Evodrop membrane guarantees a constant filter performance because it does not become dirty and clogged due to the larger contact surface, as can happen with conventional reverse osmosis systems, for example. Finally, the Evodrop system has a small germ filter to ensure germ-free water. In contrast, the competition either offers no solution or, paradoxically, irradiates the water with UV. Last but not least, all hoses in the EVOfilter are treated with a natural antimicrobial coating so that no bacteria can settle in the entire system. The EVOfilter has a total of four patented technologies that make it the best and safest filter on the market.

Can the filter also be installed in a rented apartment? What combination would you recommend in this case? Do I need a separate water tap?

You can also use this for a rented apartment without any problems. Everything is included in the price, from the installation kit to a new tap. However, we recommend buying a 3-in-1 tap for a rented apartment (through us or Sanitary) so that you don't have to drill a separate hole. You can find our range of different taps in the online store. Alternatively, you can easily install a small separate tap next to the stopper or soap dispenser without having to drill a hole. The system can be easily dismantled and taken away.

How can I buy an EVOfilter?

You are welcome to contact us by telephone, send us an e-mail or order a filter directly via our webshop.

What is the pH value of the filtered water?

The filtered water is slightly acidic during a measurement, but has an alkaline effect in the body as soon as it is drunk.

 

Now there are devices that can make the water alkaline (high pH value). However, these devices only increase the concentration of minerals. One liter of water then simply has a higher mineral content than before, which automatically raises the pH value and makes the water more alkaline. These are only inorganic minerals that are added to the water and these have a negative effect on the body.

 

In addition, the fact that a water is alkaline says nothing about whether it has an alkaline effect in the body afterwards or, conversely, whether a slightly more acidic, mineral-poor water has an acidic effect in the body. Lemon juice, for example, is quite acidic as everyone knows and therefore has a fairly low pH value. However, when you drink it, it has a very alkaline effect on the body.

 

A small example:

 

Take a glass of tap water and a glass of filtered water.

 

  1. Measure the pH value with a pH liquid or pH strip.
  2. Tap water should have a pH value of 6 - 7.
  3. The filtered water has a pH value of approx. 5.5 - 6.5.
  4. Now add a mineral to the water - just the tip of a knife is enough.
  5. You can simply leave the water to stand and after a few hours the pH value will have risen as it binds with the oxygen in the environment.

 

You can use calcium or magnesium as a mineral; ash can also be used. If you now carry out the next measurement, the tap water will remain at a pH value of approx. 6 - 7, whereas the filtered water will have a pH value of 7 - 8. If you add more minerals, the filtered water will become even more alkaline and move towards a pH value of 10. The water should only be made alkaline with our foods such as vegetables. We do not recommend artificial or inorganic additives to our customers.

 

Aren't minerals also filtered out? If so, do I also lack these minerals for my health?

 

No, they still contain small amounts of minerals (like spring water) in the filtered water. The important trace elements remain in the water.

What should the optimum pH value be?

The filtered water is slightly acidic during a measurement, approx. 6, but has an alkaline effect in the body as soon as it is drunk.

 

It is important to understand that fruits and vegetables have a pH value between 5.5 and 7.5.

 

No fruit or vegetable has a pH value higher than 7.5.

 

Raspberries, cranberries, chestnuts and blueberries, for example, have a pH value of 4.5 to 6.5.

 

In addition, the fact that a water is alkaline says nothing about whether it will have an alkaline effect in the body afterwards or, conversely, whether a slightly more acidic, mineral-poor water will have an acidic effect in the body. Lemon juice, for example, is quite acidic, as everyone knows, and therefore also has a fairly low pH value. However, when you drink it, it has a very alkaline effect on the body.

Why is alkaline water unhealthy?

Now there are devices that can make the water alkaline (high pH value). These devices simply increase the concentration of minerals. You then simply get a higher mineral content in a liter of water than before, which automatically increases the pH value and makes the water more alkaline. The problem here is that our stomach produces more stomach acid due to the addition of alkaline water. On an empty stomach, the pH value in the stomach is normally between 1.5 and 2.

 

By adding water that is too alkaline, the stomach produces even more acid. Please do not confuse alkaline water with a pH value of over 8 and inorganic minerals with fresh fruit and vegetables, which normally have a maximum pH value of 7.5.

 

A small example:

 

Take a glass of tap water and a glass of filtered water.

 

  1. Measure the pH value with a pH liquid or pH strip.
  2. Tap water should have a pH value of 6 - 7.
  3. The filtered water has a pH value of approx. 5.5 - 6.5.
  4. Now add a mineral to the water - just the tip of a knife is enough.
  5. You can simply leave the water to stand and after a few hours the pH value will have risen as it binds with the oxygen in the environment.
  6. You can use calcium or magnesium as a mineral; ash can also be used. If you now carry out the next measurement, the tap water will remain at a pH value of approx. 6 - 7, whereas the filtered water will have a pH value of 7 - 8. If you add more minerals, the filtered water will become even more alkaline and move towards a pH value of 10.

 

There is no denying that a water filter makes sense. But does it make sense for the water to be separated into acidic and alkaline water by electrolysis? Do the manufacturers know that this alkaline water can cause a major problem in the body? And would the alkaline water be of any benefit at all?

EVOcharge

What does the EVOCharge do and why is the EVOcharge the most effective refinement on the market?

The EVOCharge is a patented algorithm. It causes the water to rotate at 3,000 revolutions per minute through a nozzle refined from real gold, simulating around 15 to 20 kilometers of the natural path of spring water. Due to the strong flow dynamics, the water gains conductivity and solubility as well as natural vitality. This balancing of vibrations ensures a lively exchange between the water molecules, and the cells of our body absorb the refined hexagonal H3O2 water directly. Logically, this makes water the most effective thirst quencher. Unlike crystals in water or rods, which promise magic - and which have been proven to destroy the hexagonal structure as soon as they are poured into a glass - the hexagonal structure of the EVOCharge remains intact right into the cell.

 

The EVOCharge was rated as ingenious at the 2022 Water Conference. This is because a stable refinement should not only be present in the glass, but also stable enough to actually reach the cells.

 

There are not enough words to describe what all the studies have proven. The refinement of Evodrop offers health benefits in many areas.

 

It is the first choice of many professional athletes and professional teams.

Is there scientific evidence for clustering?

NeuroQuantology

 

In this study, the water was informed with coherent microwave radiation. One water had the drug physically in it and the other was only informed via microwave radiation. One part was consumed by a test subject, the other part was mixed with the drug Primatene (contains ephedrine, a heart stimulant).
After adding Primatene to the second part of the water, the heart rate of the test subject increased significantly, even though she had not taken the drug directly. The increase was statistically significant and reproducible in several test subjects.

 

The authors conclude that biologically/chemically relevant information can be transferred through quantum entanglement. The result in humans was the same as if they had taken the drug.

    Why is UV light harmful to our organism and why is our EVOcharge the much better choice?

    The advantage of "UV germicidal treatment" is said to be that the DNA (= genetic factors) of viruses and bacteria in the water is destroyed, thereby eliminating germination problems in the water. At the same time, however, this means that the UV light also massively damages the frequency spectra of the water so that it can no longer properly perform its control function in the human metabolism. The human DNA line is also successively altered by UV-irradiated water, which can lead to disorders in the immune system. In addition, there is a risk that the coding of the information for the subsequent gene product (protein and enzyme) will no longer function optimally.

     

    - Using the electroluminescence method, the inventor of biophoton analysis, Dr. Fritz Albert Popp, was able to prove for the first time in December 2003 that UV radiation significantly deteriorates spring water.

     

    Water is life, but only if it is alive. - Dr. Kohfink

     

    Life alternates between activity and inactivity. Gilbert Ling (see diagram below) was able to show that the structure of the cell's interior is not just an arbitrary arrangement. Rather, the cell consists of structured water that can be restored to an undisturbed and calm state through treatment. MRI scans show that disease is the result of unstructured water inside the cells. Once the quiescent state is restored, the cell returns to a state of readiness in which vital, life-sustaining processes take place.

     

    This is not just any water - our bio-water, the water in our body, is highly structured. Wherever water is found in the body - which is virtually everywhere - it exists in a state of complex, geometrically ordered molecular arrangements... upon which our physical, emotional, energetic and consciousness systems depend for health and proper functioning. - Excerpt, "Water Codes: The Science of Health, Consciousness, and Enlightenment," Dr. Carly Nuday, November 2014.

     

    "The feedback loop between the loss of structure in body water and the manifestation and development of disease is no longer a theory. Researchers at the University of Southern California have successfully measured perturbations in cell water that predict pre-pathologic conditions - diseases that are undetectable and not yet symptomatic, but will develop into symptoms over time." - Dr. Carly Nuday

     

    Water is a fractal antenna processing system. A multidimensional quantum computer with a processing speed of one trillion to potentially quintillion hertz. A tetra- to pentahertz quantum computer that processes DNA life software and communicates with environmental energies as a pattern code. - Dr. Stoppelbein

      Do I need to service or replace the EVOcharge? Arrow down

      If you have installed the EVOcharge compliant to the cold water system and after an efficient filter system (our recommendation: EVOfilter/EVOdrink), the EVOcharge is completely service and maintenance-free.

        How is the EVOcharge installed?

        The EVOcharge is simply connected to our EVOfilter/EVOdrink or a similar filter system. Thanks to simple push-in connections, one hose is plugged into the inlet and one hose into the outlet of the EVOcharge.

          Can I install the EVOcharge myself?

          The EVOcharge is easy to install. With the right hose connections, the EVOcharge can be installed very simply and without any manual skills.

            Does my water have more oxygen after the EVOcharge?

            Yes, with EVOcharge the water molecule bonds are "torn apart". This allows the water to combine much better with the oxygen from the environment after it comes out of the tap. In the EVOCharge, the water is rotated at 3,000 revolutions per minute, simulating a natural stream.

            This creates a hexagonal water structure with the compound H3O2. Our oxygen saturation test measured an oxygen increase of around 30% (depending on the water temperature).

              How long does the structuring of the water last?

              The EVOcharge creates a constant water structure, which can last for several weeks after filling in a sealed state.

              It was proven by the Scientific Research Center of Medical Biophysics SRCMB, Prof. Dr. Ignat Ignatov, that Evodrop has the most stable water structure in the world. The water was compared with the most famous springs in the world.

              The water structure lasts for several months when the bottle is closed. With most swirlers, the structure lasts for a few hours.

                Why structured water and is there scientific evidence?

                Water, known for its unique properties and its role as a universal solvent, continues to fascinate scientific research, especially with regard to its structure and behavior at the molecular level. Water molecules are polar and interact through electromagnetic hydrogen bonds, additionally influenced by van der Waals forces and dipole-dipole interactions. This complexity makes simple descriptions based on single parameters inadequate.

                 

                Experimental and theoretical studies emphasize the persistent nature of water clusters in different environments, especially in hydrophobic conditions where slower hydrogen ion interactions are prevalent. Methods such as nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) have been instrumental in studying these clusters and revealing their potential medical applications. The stability and behavior of these clusters can be influenced by factors such as the presence of metal ions, leading to stable cluster formations.

                 

                Furthermore, water clusters have been shown to exhibit characteristics of dissipative structures by self-organizing in response to physical, chemical or thermal changes, similar to Rayleigh-Benard convection cells. Such dynamic behavior supports the theory that the role of water extends beyond simple chemistry and can potentially influence biological processes at a fundamental level. The interaction of water clusters with their environment and the ability to maintain non-equilibrium states through energy exchange further emphasize their complexity and importance in both natural and technological contexts.

                 

                This review integrates findings from multiple studies and provides a comprehensive understanding of the structural and dynamic properties of water clusters and their implications for biology and technology. Ongoing research into water clusters advances our fundamental knowledge and has considerable potential for practical applications in healthcare, agriculture and environmental protection.

                 

                The presence of water clusters is confirmed by various methods. These include clusters of two, three, four and more water molecules. The most stable water clusters are generally assumed to consist of six water molecules. Configurations with up to 30 water molecules are also formed. They represent a combination of hexagonal and smaller cluster formations.

                 

                Experimental studies prove the longer existence of water clusters.

                 

                The most informative experiment is in a hydrophobic environment with slower hydrogen ion (H+) or proton interactions between water molecules in clusters. A signal from the water clusters is obtained within three days (Oka et al., 2019).

                 

                Density functional theory (DFT) analyzes the stability of water clusters as a function of the number of hydrogen bonds (Kulkarni, 2021).

                 

                Using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and infrared spectroscopy with Fourier transform (FTIR), dimer, tetramer and hexamer water clusters have been studied with applications in medicine (Kristinaityte et al., 2017). Water can be considered as a suitable but complex model for the study of cooperative interactions and structural organization of molecular clusters across the nano- and mezzo-scales. NMR-based parameters show the number of water molecules and hydrogen bonds in water clusters (Sun et al., 2017) (Yang et al., 2020).

                 

                When exposed to water, new hydrogen bonds are formed and the water molecules are restructured into clusters. An equilibrium is established in which the molecules maintain a balance with hydrogen ions (protons). This effect is measured using pH, NMR and spectral methods.

                 

                Let us consider chemically pure water with a pH value of 7.0. When this water is in an open container, it undergoes a chemical reaction with carbon dioxide. Carbonic acid is formed and the pH can reach 6.5 after a certain time, depending on the volume of water, temperature, humidity, etc. Interestingly, an equilibrium is established between the water with dissolved carbonic acid and protons (H+). The amount of H+ is measured by the pH value. This result is maintained over time. After one or two weeks and so on, it remains unchanged. This shows that unstable hydrogen ions can be brought to a stationary state. With metal ions such as calcium, magnesium and zinc, stable clusters can be formed even in small quantities. In such systems, ionic equilibrium leads to stable clusters over time. Drinking water contains dissolved positive and negative ions. Stable water clusters form around the metal ions. Water clusters of calcium ions have been studied (Kochanski, Constantin, 1987) (Watanabe, Iwata,1997) (Ariyarathna, Miliordos, 2020). There are results with clusters with magnesium ions (Delgado, Sethio, Kraka, 2021). The zinc ions (Zn2+) are in clusters with the formula (Wang P et al., 2023).

                 

                Experiments were carried out using a constant magnetic field with inductions of 1 to 10 T on water (Chang, Weng, 2006). With increasing magnetic induction, the number of hydrogen bonds increases. Using the molecular dynamics simulation method, the structuring of water clusters is demonstrated. Changes in water parameters are obtained over time. The self-diffusion coefficient changes while maintaining the parameters. Hydrogen bonding analyses are performed using the hierarchical cluster structure method (Gao et al., 2021).

                 

                The Nobel Prize winner Prigozhine created the theory of dissipative structures (Chernyuk, Sugakov, 2006). The relationship between dissipative structures and water clusters can be seen in dependencies between dynamic and non-equilibrium characteristics of systems. For example, water clusters in a water environment may show a tendency to self-organize under the influence of thermal, chemical or physical changes. This is comparable to the dynamics of dissipative structures. Interesting examples of complex behavior can be observed in systems far from thermodynamic equilibrium. Water clusters interact with their environment through energy exchange, such as heat absorption or release during the formation or dissolution of hydrogen bonds. This process contributes to maintaining the clusters in a non-equilibrium state, similar to dissipative structures.

                 

                The water cluster is a dissipative structure similar to a self-organized Rayleigh-Benard convection cell (Fedorets et al., 2017). Self-organized hexagonal patterned microdroplet clusters over locally heated water surfaces have recently been observed. These clusters are stable over time, and the result increases after 80 seconds. The time-dependent Voronoi entropy of the cluster was calculated using software developed by the Department of Physics and Astronomy at the University of California, Irvine.

                 

                The paper presents experimental and theoretical evidence (Elia, Germano, Napoli, 2015). Three physical perturbations were performed to form dissipative structures in liquid water with low energy content. The methods were extremely dilute solution (EDS), iteratively filtered water (IFW) and iteratively carbonated water (INW). Of particular interest is the recent discovery that such structures are enormously persistent even in the solid phase: large amounts of supramolecular water aggregates hundreds of nanometers in size. The dissipative structures were observed at normal pressure and temperature using reproducible experimental methods. The nature of these dissipative structures is analyzed. The explanation related to the thermodynamics of far-from-equilibrium systems and reversible processes. Spontaneous quantum origin was demonstrated.

                 

                Josephson, a theoretical physicist and Nobel Prize winner, has actually studied the field of water clusters, in particular their quantum physical properties and possible implications.

                 

                In his article "Possible role of Josephson tunneling in the operation of life," Josephson discusses the possible action of Josephson tunneling, a quantum phenomenon, in biological systems, including its role in the behavior of water clusters within living organisms.

                 

                Josephson's interest in the quantum physical aspects of water behavior extends to its role in biological processes and he suggests that quantum coherence may be relevant for understanding phenomena such as energy transfer and information processing in biological systems.

                 

                In 1988, Del Giudice, Preparata and Vitiello described the coherent dynamic structures of water and their implications for biological systems. The study suggests that water molecules exhibit coherence at the quantum physical level and can form coherent domains or clusters.

                 

                The Italian team is exploring the idea that water molecules can organize themselves into coherent structures, which could have profound implications for understanding various biological phenomena such as cell signaling, energy transfer and consciousness.

                 

                In 2015, Montagnier, Del Guidice, Vitiello et al. conducted a very interesting experiment on the information-transmitting properties of water. The paper describes the experimental conditions under which dilute aqueous solutions of certain bacterial and viral DNA can emit electromagnetic signals (EMS). It is demonstrated that the recorded EMS and the nanostructures formed in the water preserve the DNA information (sequence), which was confirmed by classical PCR amplification using TAQ polymerase and primers as well as nucleotides. In addition, this transfer process was observed in living human cells exposed to EMS radiation. These experiments suggest the need for coherent interactions over long ranges in water to manifest the above features. A quantum field theory analysis of this phenomenon is presented.

                 

                In 2017, McDermott et al. published a paper on the structuring of chiral water superstructures around DNA under normal conditions. The publication confirms the results obtained by Montagnier et al. on information transfer via DNA with magnetic fields (Montagnier et al., 2017). Chiral water superstructures surrounding DNA under normal conditions reflect a process in which water molecules can organize into specific chiral structures around DNA molecules under normal conditions. This implies that the microenvironment around DNA in living cells includes water that is not randomly arranged but is present in a specific, structured form with stable structures.

                 

                In 1996, Liu, Cruzan and Saykally connected chiral water structures with trimer and pentamer water clusters.

                 

                Proton transfer and chiral conversion via hydrogen bonds (HBs) are important for applications such as chiral recognition, enzymatic catalysis and drug production.

                 

                Via concerted intralayer proton transfer processes (CIPT) of small prismatic water clusters in the form of layered n-water rings (BnWRs, n = 4, 5, 6). Density functional theory (DFT) calculations show that despite small energy differences between the initial and final states of the clusters of less than 0.3 kcal-mol-1, the vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) spectrum exhibits clear chiral recognition peaks between 3,000 and 3,500 cm-1. Oxygen 2p atomic orbitals dominate the molecular orbitals involved in the layer interaction; the energy of these orbitals increased by up to 0.1 eV as a result of the CIPT processes, indicating corresponding recognition between single-layer water clusters (Wang B et al., 2016).

                 

                The foundation is based on the concept that clustered water (CW) may possess certain memory-bound properties. A series of resonant frequency imprinting studies were performed using Quantum FAFA equipment to evaluate the frequency signals directly in water. The resonant frequency profile of CW was found to be clearly distinguishable from that of distilled water (DW). In a separate experiment, regular CW served as a control, while another CW sample was imprinted with an additional low-frequency signal. The results indicated several new resonant frequency peaks in the newly imprinted CW compared to the non-imprinted CW control.

                 

                This research should provide a new approach to unveil the secrets of the meridian system and the associated bio-signaling networks (Pan et al., 2004).

                 

                Nobel laureate Agre shows that until 1990 there was no clear understanding of water transport across the cell membrane. He reviews the history of the water channel and recent structural and functional analyses of aquaporins. He also investigates the information-transferring effect of hydrogen bonds. Water molecules could thus swing from one set of tetrahedral hydrogen bonds to the next and cross the channel without realizing it (Engel, Fujiyoshi, Agre, 2000).

                 

                Water clusters play an active and essential role in biochemical reactions within living organisms. Understanding their formation and behavior is critical to understanding their interactions with biomaterials and their implications for human health and agriculture. Further research on water clusters, particularly in plant cells, promises to reveal new insights and applications in various fields (Laurson, Maeorg, 2015).

                 

                Water shortages are a reality that producers are increasingly facing due to climate change and the resulting shift in precipitation regimes. Therefore, technology and management that seek to reduce the impacts caused by these changes are essential and need to be addressed (Tomsic, 2003).

                 

                Conclusion

                 

                Extensive research on water clusters emphasizes their central role in physical and biological systems and explains their complex molecular interactions and structural dynamics through techniques such as NMR, FTIR spectroscopy and DFT. These clusters show remarkable stability and reactivity under different conditions, which is crucial for biological functions such as proton transfer and DNA structuring.

                 

                Theoretical studies and practical experiments, including by Nobel laureates such as Prigoschine, Montagnier, Josephson and Agre, have opened up new perspectives on the quantum properties of water clusters, suggesting intricate involvement in cellular processes through mechanisms such as quantum coherence and tunneling. The persistence of these clusters in dilute conditions indicates their ability to store and transmit biochemical information, with significant implications for medical and environmental technologies. Continued research into these phenomena promises to deepen our understanding of water's unique properties and broaden its applications in science and industry - and highlights the importance of further exploring the molecular complexity of water and its practical potential.

                  Can I use the refined water for cooking and food supplements?

                  Natural. The water is ideal for preparing foods such as coffee, tea, vegetables, pasta and so on. Due to the increased solubility of the water, the flavors of the food develop significantly and the prepared food / drink tastes more intense.

                    Is the purified water suitable for babies and small children?

                    Definitely! According to "the Water Puzzle and the Hexagonal Key", babies have almost 100% hexagonal water in their bodies at birth. Drinking this biologically superior water in children can contribute to better health and vitality - just like in adults. It could be one of the most important gifts you can give your children.

                      EVOtransform

                      Do I have to maintain or replace the EVOtransform?

                      No. The EVOtransform is based on a purely physical process without the use of chemicals and is installed with corrosion- and erosion-free material. This makes the system maintenance-free. You also receive a 20-year guarantee on the system, provided it is not dismantled or used improperly.

                        What is the difference between the EVOtransform and other turbulators/magentizers on the market?

                        The EVOtransform is a patented technology whose effectiveness has been proven by various laboratories and testing institutions. The main difference is that the EVOtransform is based on proven facts and the highest quality materials such as a gold-plated nozzle made of real gold. The device is 100% SwissMade, as only in Switzerland can the highest degree of precision be guaranteed for each individual component.

                          What happens in the EVOtransform?

                          The water is circulated directly by its inlet force in the EVOtransform using the patented rotating nozzles, whereby it is rotated at around 100,000 revolutions per minute. The effect of this process has been scientifically substantiated and patented as state-of-the-art technology.

                           

                          Thanks to this enormous physical force, the bound carbonic acid can be released into the water, stabilizing the lime-carbonic acid ratio. The free carbonic acid can break down and flush out existing deposits from the pipe system from time to time.

                           

                          After circulation, the water also tastes softer and more digestible, as is known from natural springs where the water is constantly in motion. Tested and verified by independent institutes such as the Prof. Dr. Dartsch Institute, it stimulates basal cell metabolism and thus cell activity by 50% compared to untreated tap water. The water also has an anti-inflammatory effect.

                            How is the EVOtransform installed?

                            The EVOtransform is installed on your main water pipe directly after the water meter and sediment filter. We recommend having the installation carried out by a certified plumber.

                              Can I install the EVOtransform myself?

                              No. As the EVOtransform must be connected to the main water pipe and installation is somewhat more complex, we recommend having the installation carried out by a certified plumber. The installation requires special tools and a certain amount of expertise in building services. If you do not have a plumber you trust, we will be happy to organize installation by one of our specialist partners in your area.

                                How long do I have a warranty on the EVOtransform?

                                We offer a 20-year guarantee on the EVOtransform.

                                  Does the EVOtransform remove limescale from the water?

                                  Van der Waals forces are electrostatic charges that water molecules generate due to their dipole characteristics. The rotation, whose vacuum forces are stronger than the electrostatic forces of the water molecules, frees the water molecules from the adhering substances (gases).

                                   

                                  Using these forces, the carbonic acid is separated from the water and the CO2 is released as a gas. The calcium remains in the water, but in a chemically and physically different form, which no longer settles and builds up on pipes, fittings and surfaces.

                                   

                                  The formation of lime in hard water as a CaCO3 precipitation process is a process of equilibrium and slowing down. An increase in pH due to the release of CO2 into solution will drive the precipitation of CaCO3 as follows:

                                   

                                  Ca2+ + 2HCO3 - = CO2(aq) + CaCO3(s) + H2O

                                   

                                  In the dynamic fluid system, however, the Lorentz force and the magnetohydrodynamic effect on charged ions or particles play an important role in increasing CaCO3 precipitation.

                                    Do I still have to deal with limescale deposits in the household with the EVOtransform?

                                    No. The calcium and magnesium molecules are robbed of their ability to bind. This means that crystals of magnesium and calcium (also known as lime) can no longer form in the water. The degree of hardness remains the same, but due to the amorphous structure of the crystals, the lime no longer adheres so strongly to surfaces after the water has oxidized. Simply put, the limescale is rendered harmless and after the water dries, only a light mineral film remains on the surface, which you can simply wipe off with a damp cloth.

                                      What advantages does the water after the EVOtransform have for my household?

                                      As the limescale can no longer "seize up", you protect your pipes in the house from wear and blockages. In the long term, this will save you massive renovation or repair costs in the event of a burst or blocked pipe. In addition, the water is better for all water-bearing appliances in your home and significantly increases their service life and efficiency. However, the water also affects the function of various appliances in your home. The treated water makes the laundry softer and the washing machine requires less detergent. The dishwasher requires less salt and your dishes have fewer traces of limescale.

                                        What are the health benefits of the EVOtransform?

                                        As the EVOtransform completely dispenses with the use of chemicals, the water is healthier than with conventional water softeners, which release sodium into the water. As the enormous rotational forces allow the water molecules to form naturally again, the bioavailability of the water increases as the water clusters are smaller (hexagonal water). The water becomes more bindable and care products such as creams, shampoo and other cosmetics can be better absorbed by the skin. The increased solubility of the water also ensures that you need to use less cleaning agents, detergents and washing-up liquid. This reduces the strain on your skin and respiratory tract as you come into less intensive contact with cleaning products.

                                          Does my water have more oxygen after the EVOtransform?

                                          Yes, the water molecule bonds are "torn apart" during the EVOtransform and thus the water is "degassed". As soon as the water comes into contact with oxygen again, it has a higher absorption potential and can therefore bind more oxygen. The oxygen content after the EVOtransform is at least 50% higher.

                                            EVOdescale

                                            Why is the EVOdescale the best descaling system on the market, guaranteed?

                                            An accredited DVGW laboratory has proven that Evodrop descaling removes 94.2% of limescale from the water.

                                             

                                            In comparison, softening systems with salt have a limescale protection value of approx. 85%, KoralForce 60% and magnetizers and swirlers between 30% and 50%. The latter types of system do not remove limescale from the water, but merely convert it.

                                             

                                            180-day money-back guarantee, 20-year manufacturer's warranty, no electricity, no waste water and Swiss-Made round off the perfect solution against limescale.

                                            How does the descaling of the EVOdescale work?

                                            With the "EVOhome" solution, a limescale protection rate of up to 94.2% is guaranteed without the use of salt, waste water or electricity thanks to the specially patented malic acid and innovative ion sieve technology. Unlike seed crystals, swirlers or magnetizers, the limescale is not converted but filtered out of the water. This means that the annoying limescale can be collected and processed in the filter cartridge.

                                             

                                            Malic acid is an organic component of many fruits, but is mainly found in apples.

                                             

                                            In this respect, it is completely neutral and tasteless.

                                             

                                            The filtration material in the EVOdescale filters heavy metals to protect against corrosion and eliminates bacteria and viruses from the water.

                                             

                                            It is important to understand that the limescale is no longer in the water and you therefore have no deposits.

                                             

                                            Malic acid is an official ECHA recognized and registered application for water softening plants or water treatment plants.

                                             

                                            The European Chemicals Agency is an EU authority that regulates the technical, scientific and administrative aspects of the registration, evaluation and authorization of chemicals in accordance with Regulation No. 1907/2006 of 18 December 2006.

                                            Is the water hardness changed? And how are the household appliances set?

                                            No, just as it is not changed in softening systems with salt.

                                             

                                            And it's not even necessary. Because you are only bothered by the annoying limescale, i.e. carbonate ions, and not by the minerals calcium and magnesium.

                                             

                                            However, dealers and suppliers of water softeners tell you that the water hardness and the corresponding limescale protection can only be checked using test strips. But this is not the case, because the test strips are only designed to react to mineral ions.

                                             

                                            The effective amount of particles in the water remains the same and you can easily test this at home with a PPM measuring device. Why? Because salt is released into the water in exchange for minerals. And no, not Himalayan or sea salt. It is advisable to take a look at the supplementary sheet for regenerating salt.

                                             

                                            The result is comparable to conventional softening systems with salt, but is more sustainable and involves less effort. The appliances are set to 13 French hardness and you save on detergent and fabric softener. You also no longer need regenerating salt in the dishwasher.

                                            What is the difference to a conventional water softener (ion exchange)?

                                            The conventional softening system with ion exchanger resin removes the limescale from the water by means of the ion exchange process that gives it its name. More precisely, it removes the positively charged ions such as calcium (Ca2+), magnesium (Mg2+) and potassium (Ka2+), i.e. the alkaline earth ions. Instead, it releases two sodium ions (Na+) into the water. It therefore exchanges the ions.

                                             

                                            Obsolete water softeners with salt cannot intelligently differentiate between useful minerals or annoying limescale and are forced to remove both.

                                             

                                            The EVOdescale relies on natural malic acid complexes, which are contained in the filter cartridge as granules. Combined with filtration, limescale is simply processed and collected in the filter cartridge. As a result, we do not change the taste negatively and do not release any harmful sodium into the water - conventional softening systems remove important minerals such as calcium and magnesium from the water. Due to the risk of corrosion and health concerns, normal water must be added to salt systems.

                                             

                                            With EVOdescale, on the other hand, all the water can be treated, as malic acid is a completely natural product.

                                             

                                            The limescale is dissolved and no longer settles. It is important to understand that, unlike with magnetizers or swirlers, the limescale is truly dissolved and is no longer in the water.

                                            Is salt ultimately released into the water in softening systems with salt?

                                            Many suppliers of water softening systems using ion exchange claim that their appliances do not release any salt into the water. However, this statement is misleading. From a chemical point of view, salt consists of sodium chloride, and sodium is actually introduced into the water during the softening process. This happens through the exchange resin used in such systems. This resin, which must be disposed of as hazardous waste and is highly toxic, is an essential component of any salt-based softening system.

                                             

                                            The softening process works by ion exchange, in which calcium and magnesium ions are exchanged for sodium ions. This introduces sodium into the water, which can raise health concerns. An increased sodium content in the water can be problematic for people with certain health conditions, such as cardiovascular disease or high blood pressure.

                                             

                                            The use of salt in water softening systems also has an environmental impact. The salt and the chemical additives used to regenerate the resins enter the waste water and can pollute the environment. The disposal of the exchange resin as hazardous waste also poses an environmental risk.

                                             

                                            In summary, it can be said that sodium (salt) is actually found in water softened by ion exchange systems, contrary to the claims of some suppliers of softening systems that there is no salt in the water. This statement could be interpreted as sporting or ironic.

                                             

                                            Suppliers of water softeners often compare the addition of sodium with the salt content of a packet of chips. However, this overlooks the fact that people do not eat chips every day and that this comparison is misleading. It is similar to the argument for throwing PET bottles into lakes on the grounds that microplastics are already present there anyway.

                                            Why is salt from salt plants scientifically proven to be dangerous for us humans and for our environment?

                                            It is important to understand that although salt from salt plants is a natural product, it must be chemically processed.

                                             

                                            Commercially available salt consists of at least 94 percent rock salt or table salt, i.e. sodium chloride (NaCl). However, it has no place on breakfast eggs - the salt in softening plants is denatured, i.e. made inedible by the addition of additives. In addition to natural additives such as clay, calcium or magnesium sulphate, iron or potassium ferricyanide is usually added to the salt as an anti-caking agent.

                                             

                                            There is therefore no Himalayan salt or sea salt in the water softener with salt. It is salt with the following warnings on the packaging:

                                            Why is too much salt harmful to our body?

                                            Many people react to permanently high salt consumption with high blood pressure, which increases the risk of cardiovascular disease. The kidneys, which excrete excess salt, are also burdened. And the composition of the bacteria in the gut, the microbiome, can also change as a result of too much salt.

                                             

                                            Did you know that it takes 23 times as many water molecules to transport one salt molecule out of the body?

                                            Does the pH value of the water change?

                                            No. We do not change the pH value of the water through filtration with the EVOdescale.

                                              Where is the EVOdescale installed?
                                              The EVOdescale is a combination of house filter and descaling and is installed directly on the main cold water pipe in your house. It is important that a fixed installation sequence is followed. The EVOdescale must be installed after the water meter, the pressure reducer and the sediment filter (backwash filter).
                                              Can I install the EVOdescale myself?
                                              No. To install the EVOdescale, you need certain specialist knowledge, which a plumber can provide. Certain conditions (water pressure, installation diagram, etc.) must be observed. We therefore recommend that the EVOdescale is always installed by a specialist (plumber). This guarantees safe installation and commissioning and you will be instructed by a specialist.
                                              Does the EVOdescale require maintenance and how much does it cost?

                                              The maximum replacement period of 12 months is recommended for hygienic reasons.

                                               

                                              Due to various external influences (house size, degree of hardness, water consumption, pipes, etc.), we will inform you of the maintenance interval individually.

                                               

                                              EVOdescale guarantees a term of 12 months. Unless otherwise agreed in writing.

                                               

                                              An EVOdescale replacement filter costs CHF 399. For an additional CHF 200, one of our service installers will carry out the maintenance for you.

                                               

                                              Unlike softening systems with salt, where the guarantee only remains valid if the service is carried out by the supplier, Evodrop's guarantee remains valid for 20 years.

                                              Is the EvoTransform absolutely necessary?

                                              No, the EVOtransform is an optional item for the EVOdescale or EVOadsorb softening systems and has no influence on the quality of the descaling.

                                               

                                              The water is circulated in the EVOtransform at around 100,000 revolutions per minute using the patented rotating nozzle. This rotational force creates a combination of oscillating water molecules in the same direction, which is called a coherence domain. The water is structured and has a hexagonal structure, also known as H3O2.

                                               

                                              As a result, the inner surface of the water is increased. The water gains conductivity, solubility and natural vitality. The cells in our body absorb the refined water more directly.

                                               

                                              An additional benefit is the improved taste of the water after refinement. The water can bind with more oxygen after discharge and has a lighter and much more digestible taste.
                                              The EVOTransform is maintenance-free and, with a 20-year guarantee, is worth considering purchasing.

                                              EVOadsorb

                                              What is the difference between the EVOadsorb filter and conventional activated carbon filters such as carbonite?
                                              In general, it is important to understand that if a supplier says it filters pesticides, for example, then the statement is theoretically true. But this only corresponds to the pore size that you filter. So a maximum of 0.1 micrometers.

                                               

                                              All pesticides or pollutants smaller than 0.1 micrometers cannot be filtered out of the water. In practice, therefore, the pollutants are not filtered out. Such companies like to keep this general and do not disclose pore sizes. Insist on proof of the pore sizes.

                                               

                                              Conventional activated carbon filters filter at a maximum of 0.1 micrometers. Evodrop, on the other hand, has proven with the world's largest testing institute, SGS, that it can effectively filter pollutants down to 0.002 micrometers.

In practice, therefore, the pollutants are not filtered out. Such companies like to keep this general and do not disclose pore sizes.

                                              Conventional activated carbon filters filter at a maximum of 0.1 micrometers. Evodrop, on the other hand, has proven with the world's largest testing institute, SGS, that it can effectively filter pollutants down to 0.002 micrometers.

                                               

                                              The biggest advantage is that the EVOadsorb is guaranteed not to release any pollutants back into the water over time, as the structure is completely different to that of activated carbon filters. With activated carbon filters, channels form over time, which means that pollutants simply end up back in the water. The EvoAdsorb therefore only needs to be replaced after 1 year.

                                              How does the descaling of EVOdescale / EVOadsorb work?
                                              With the "EVOhomePlus" solution, a limescale protection rate of up to 80% is guaranteed without the use of salt, waste water or electricity thanks to the specially patented malic acid and innovative ion sieve technology. Unlike with seed crystals, swirlers or magnetizers, the limescale is not converted but filtered out of the water. This means that the annoying limescale can be collected and processed in the filter cartridge.

                                               

                                              As the cartridge also filters, the descaling rate is 80%. If you want to remove more limescale from the water, we recommend the EVODescale cartridge, which filters up to 94% of the limescale out of the water.

                                               

                                              Malic acid is an organic component of many fruits, but is mainly found in apples.

                                               

                                              In this respect, it is completely neutral and tasteless.

                                               

                                              The filtration material in the EVOdescale filters heavy metals to protect against corrosion and eliminates bacteria and viruses from the water.

                                               

                                              It is important to understand that the limescale is no longer in the water and you therefore have no deposits.

                                               

                                              Malic acid is an official ECHA recognized and registered application for water softening plants or water treatment plants.

                                               

                                              The European Chemicals Agency is an EU authority that regulates the technical, scientific and administrative aspects of the registration, evaluation and authorization of chemicals in accordance with Regulation No. 1907/2006 of 18 December 2006.

                                              Does the EVOadsorb generate waste water?

                                              No, the EVOdrink does not generate waste water and does not require electricity.

                                                Is the EVOadsorb an activated carbon filter?
                                                Conventional activated carbon is produced by extrusion and compression molding. Both processes use granulated or powdered activated carbon and create a specific block filter using binding agents (plastic glues or similar).

                                                 

                                                Our "activated carbon" is carbonized, activated and finally spun on membrane-like fibres, such as rayon, using the wet spinning process. In view of this, we can achieve brilliant results for the inner surface area (m2/g) compared to conventional activated carbon filters. Above all, our cartridges are predominantly based on micropores with a diameter of ≤2 nanometers. Conventional activated carbon is mainly based on meso- and macropores, which are significantly larger (10-50 nanometers and ≥50 nanometers).

                                                Where is the EVOadsorb installed?

                                                The EVOadsorb is a combination of house filter and descaling and is installed directly on the main cold water pipe in your home. It is important that a fixed installation sequence is followed. The EVOadsorb must be installed after the water meter, the pressure reducer and the sediment filter (backwash filter).

                                                  Does the EVOadsorb require maintenance and how much does it cost?
                                                  The replacement period of 6 to a maximum of 12 months is recommended for hygienic reasons. However, an early change within this period may be necessary if the water flow is noticeably reduced. This is not a defect in the filter used, but an indication of an increased occurrence of fine particles in the unfiltered water. Due to various external influences (house size, degree of hardness, water consumption, pipes, etc.), we will inform you of the maintenance interval individually.

                                                   

                                                  Evodrop guarantees a term of 12 months. Unless otherwise agreed in writing.

                                                   

                                                  An EVOadsorb replacement filter costs CHF 499. For an additional CHF 200, one of our service installers will carry out the maintenance for you.

                                                  What is the difference to a conventional water softener (ion exchange)?
                                                  The conventional softening system with ion exchanger resin removes the limescale from the water by means of the ion exchange process that gives it its name. More precisely, it removes the positively charged ions such as calcium (Ca2+), magnesium (Mg2+) and potassium (Ka2+), i.e. the alkaline earth ions. Instead, it releases two sodium ions (Na+) into the water. It therefore exchanges the ions. This is where the EVOadsorb relies on natural malic acid. Combined with the active membrane, limescale is simply dissolved. As a result, we do not change the taste negatively and do not release any harmful sodium into the water - on the contrary, we even improve it thanks to our active membrane! This has been proven to filter heavy metals, microorganisms, chemicals and medicines out of the water. The limescale is dissolved and no longer settles. It is important to understand that, unlike with magnetizers or swirlers, the limescale is truly dissolved and is no longer in the water.
                                                  Does the pH value of the water change?
                                                  No. We do not change the pH value of the water through filtration with the EVOadsorb.
                                                  How can I buy an EVOadsorb?
                                                  You are welcome to contact us by telephone or e-mail. There is also a showroom available to show you the whole system and to test the water.
                                                  What material is the EVOadsorb made of?

                                                  Our "activated carbon" is carbonized, activated and finally spun on membrane-like fibres, such as rayon, using the wet spinning process.

                                                  In other words, the EvoAdsorb filters at 0.002 micrometers, while conventional activated carbon filters filter at 0.1 micrometers.
