Yes, the zazen Alkaline Water System has been designed to selectively remove and reduce chlorine, fluoride, bacteria, heavy metals and many of the harmful toxins in our drinking water – whilst retaining the beneficial minerals critical for life and proper hydration. 

The zazen Alkaline Water System emulates Mother Nature’s natural water cycle which includes filtration and then the rebalancing of water with life giving beneficial minerals and energy. 

With regard to Fluoride, independent tests have shown the zazen Multi-Stage Filter naturally removes up to 90% of the fluoride. As with any natural filtration system, reduction will reduce with volume of water through the filter, so it is critical that the zazen Multi-Stage Filter is replaced as recommended every 6 months at a maximum, 4 months for a large household, office or clinic.

Your zazen Alkaline Water System has 5 different parts that need to be replaced at specific times:

Multi-Stage Filter - Every 6 months (if using more than 12 litres per day, you should replace sooner)

Ceramic Pre-Filter - Every 12 months (if you use tank/bore water, you may need to change it every 6 months depending on how well you pre-filter your tank water)

Anti-Bacterial Stones (red/brown) - Every 12 months

Alkalinity Enhancer - Every 12 months

Mineral Stones (blue/grey) - Every 5 years

To ensure the very best quality water for your health and wellness benefit, it is important to change your filters and stones on time. 

• Multi-Stage Filter - once placed in your zazen Water system, the Multi-Stage Filter has a maximum life of 6 months, regardless of the volume of water filtered (If you have a large family, or busy office/clinic, using over 12 litres / day, you may need to change your filter cartridge sooner). If not replaced on time, the acidic contaminants in your source water will affect the ability of the system to produce healthy alkaline water.
  For effective fluoride reduction of up to 90%, it is very important to change this filter every 6 months at a maximum.

When you should change the other components in your zazen Alkaline Water System:

• Ceramic Pre-Filter - this filter deteriorates over time with use and cleaning and should be replaced every 12 months. It plays a critical role in pre-filtering large contaminants (greater than 0.2 micron) from your water, such as bacteria, ecoli, giardia and other organic matter, so they do not clog up the Multi-Stage Filter, impacting its ability to do its heavy metal and fluoride filtering at an effective level.
• Anti-Bacterial Stones (red/brown) - conserve the freshness and health of the water in the bottom tank due to their anti-bacterial properties and should be replaced every 12 months.
• Alkalinity Enhancer - these little white beads help boost the pH of the water due to the ionised magnesium and calcium being released into the water and should be replaced every 12 months.
• Mineral Stones (blue/grey) - these stones contain a balanced range of natural minerals including calcium, iron, magnesium, potassium and silicon which help to balance, fortify and assist with the pH and increases the amount of dissolved oxygen in the water. They shouold be replaced every 5 years.

All 5 components work synergistically together to provide you with healthy alkaline mineral water.

When it's time to replace your zazen filters and stones, your old filters and stones can be recycled as follows:

• Multi-Stage Filter – over time this filter traps toxins, chemicals, poisons, heavy metals and other contaminants in its layers as it filters your water. We recommend that you DO NOT RECYCLE this filter – put it in a plastic bag, tie it and put in your rubbish bin.
• Ceramic Pre-Filter – 100% recyclable so this filter can be put in your recycling bin as it is just made of ceramic and a plastic base
• Anti-Bacterial Stones, Alkalinity Enhancer & Mineral Stones – these can just be used in the garden as rocks
• Shower Filter Cartridges - 100% recyclable as the filtration media is different to the Multi-Stage Filter.
• Cardboard/paper packaging – dispose of in your recycling bin
