5.4 Mineralized Alkaline Water

The 7-stage filtration process includes a remineralization stage that adds beneficial alkaline minerals such as Potassium (K), Calcium (Ca), Sodium (Na), and Magnesium (Mg). This process also adjusts the water's pH to an optimal 7.5±, enhancing taste for drinking, cooking, coffee, or tea. Note: The electronic display of the Waterdrop C1SL does not show the pH value.
