Performance: three important considerations
Testing performed in Independent, EPA / NELAP Certified Labs for:
21 heavy metals, 6 Forever Chemicals, 68 pharmaceuticals, 7 hormones, 45 pesticides and herbicides, 87 VOC & SOC’s, and 15 other anions & disinfectants - a total of 249!
Nothing was hidden or left out. We reported and reduced everything – even the toughest things like arsenic, chromium VI etc. We also tested as close to the EPA Maximum Contaminant Level as possible.
Smart Electrodes are made from the purest Japanese titanium and platinum. Add precise Korean engineering. The result? More efficiency and more performance that lasts over time.
Our proprietary membranes are sonically welded. Never chemically bonded like others. Marry them to Smart Electrodes and you get H2 Infusion Technology and unmatched performance. Now that’s smart.
The Vesta H2 will (depending on source water) create over a 10.0+ pH and -900 ORP. What is misleading and false marketing is to say an ionizer will get a particular result since the result will vary depending on the mineral concentration in your water and the flow rate. What we will guarantee is that if any customer can show, in the first 90 days after purchase, that our ionizer does not outperform any other brand ionizer using similar number of plates and the same water source, then we will give a full refund.
Engineered with you in mind
It’s the best ionizer filter - our EPA certified testing proves it. Tested against 249
contaminants, UltraWater filtration is shown to reduce virtually all of them by 99.9%.
Clean tastes good too. Crisp, light, and silky smooth.
Don’t drink dirty alkaline water. Drink UltraWater.
efficiency. Maximum performance.
More benefits.
High wattage is a sign of old, inefficient technology. It damages electrodes. AutoAdjust
pulses the SMPS power to the electrodes ensuring you get maximum efficiency plus
optimal – and lasting – performance.
Since we introduced DARC in 2006, it’s been the best way to clean water ionizer
electrodes and ensure lasting performance. DARC II is even more effective and more
reliable, giving you more peace of mind.
RISC processors consume less power and offer the highest performance. RISC’s
advanced technology performs diagnosis on the ionizer with each use. LCD notification
alerts you of a fault protecting your investment.
Don’t drink dirty alkaline water. Drink UltraWater.
by research.
Over 1,000 peer-reviewed studies show that molecular hydrogen - or H2 - has a therapeutic benefit in every organ of the human body and positively affects over 170 disease models and health conditions.
and pains.
Oxidative stress damages your cells, causing pain and inflammation. As we age, inflammation increases. Studies show that H2 neutralizes the damaging radicals. Drinking UltraWater can ease chronic and acute aches and pain.
in your water!
Free radical damage causes oxidative stress and is one of the primary causes of aging. Oxidation causes iron or apples to “rust”. Antioxidants prevent or slow that damage. Unfortunately, anti-oxidants neutralize both beneficial and harmful radicals. Research shows the H2 in UltraWater specifically targets only the damaging radicals - making it the “ultimate” antioxidant.
ATP powers your cells. It is the source of your energy. Research shows H2 helps increase ATP production giving you more energy while decreasing lactic acid levels. Athlete? Exerciser? Just want more pep? UltraWater helps improve performance and recovery.
Improve your health.
When H2 neutralizes damaging oxygen radicals, it creates water (H2O) - increasing your cellular hydration. Great tasting, silky-smooth, alkaline UltraWater is also easier to drink. When you drink more, you enjoy optimal hydration and better health.
UltraWater is alkaline and ionized making it rich in naturally occurring beneficial minerals like calcium and magnesium that help you alkalize and maintain a healthy pH balance.

Outdated look. Large spout. Questionable compatibility w/ high-end kitchen decor.
You better like black! Very square and boxy. Unrefined.
New model is their best looking Ionizer. Competitive, high-end quality like AlkaViva.
Healthy water starts with clean. Ionizers filters are not all created equal. The scary part? Unfiltered contaminants are ionized and made more bio-available.
The result of 3 years and $500k in R&D. UltraWater’s proprietary impregnated technology utilizes 16 medias to target broad based contaminants. Unmatched performance.
Granulated Activated Carbon plus Calcium Sulfite (like Brita). Very simple filter that along with a high flow rate offers minimal contact time and poor broad-based contaminant reduction. No posted test results.
Granulated Activated Carbon with Vitamin C (that targets only chlorine). Life sends a “customized” three external filter set (actually same filter set no matter where you live).
Granulated Activated Carbon plus a .01M membrane for microbes only. Filters do not remove broad-based contaminants like heavy metals etc.
(Yes) - EPA / NELAP certified lab tests show a 99.9% reduction of 249 contaminants (including arsenic) across a broad range of contaminants.
WQA Gold Seal / NSF 42 NSF 42 certifies reduction of chlorine taste and odor only. Not tested for anything else.

.01M FILTER. This filter only removes microbes (killed by chlorine) in treated water. Useful for wells, but does NOT reduce broad-based contaminants.
