Facts About Water

Water is essential to life

Every living thing depends on water. But beyond drinking enough water, the quality of the water we consume matters too.

Bottled water can be convenient, but it also involves bottles, packaging and transportation. For everyday drinking, having access to properly treated water at home can provide a practical alternative to relying on bottled water.

A Better Approach to Everyday Water

At AVAVA, we believe better water should be accessible, convenient and thoughtfully treated.

Our approach combines water filtration with water enrichment, providing a practical solution for everyday drinking—without electricity and with less reliance on bottled water.

Better Water. Smarter Technology

It is concise, professional, environmentally responsible, and—most importantly—keeps AVAVA focused on what we can confidently stand behind: our own filtration and water-enrichment technology, rather than making a claim about an evolving scientific issue.

Different Ways to Treat Water

Today, consumers have access to different types of water and water-treatment methods. Each approach is designed with a different purpose, and each has its own characteristics.

The important question is:

What does each treatment process do to the water — and what remains after treatment?

Tap Water

Tap water is supplied through municipal water systems and is generally treated and disinfected before reaching homes. Treatment methods vary by location and may include disinfectants such as chlorine. Some regions also add fluoride as a public health measure.

However, water continues to travel through distribution networks and household plumbing before reaching your tap.

Distilled Water

Distillation involves heating water to produce steam and then condensing the steam back into the water. This process can remove many dissolved substances, including minerals.
As a result, distilled water contains very low levels of dissolved minerals compared with untreated water.

Reverse Osmosis

Reverse Osmosis (RO) uses a semi-permeable membrane to reduce a wide range of dissolved substances, particles and other impurities in water. Because the process also reduces many naturally occurring minerals, RO systems are sometimes combined with a remineralisation stage to add selected minerals back into the treated water. 

Deionized Water

Deionization (DI) uses ion-exchange technology to remove many dissolved mineral ions from water, including positively charged ions such as calcium, magnesium and sodium, as well as negatively charged ions. DI treatment is primarily designed to remove dissolved ions. It should not be regarded as a complete method for removing microorganisms or pathogens. 

WHAT MATTERS IS WHAT'S LEFT IN THE WATER

Different treatment methods can produce very different result. Some focus primarily on disinfection, while others remove dissolved substances,, minerals or ions. At AVAVA, we take a different approach by combining water filtration with water enrichment. Our patented technology is designed not only to filter water, but also to enrich it with mineral elements such as magnesium—without electricity.

Filter. Enrich, Enjoy.

“The safety and accessibility of drinking-water are major concerns throughout the world. Health risks may arise from consumption of water contaminated with infectious agents, toxic chemicals, and radiological hazards. Improving access to safe drinking-water can result in tangible improvements to health.”
– World Health Organisation

Tap Water

Tap water is supplied through municipal water systems and is generally treated and disinfected before reaching our homes. Treatment methods vary by location and may include disinfectants such as chlorine. Some regions also add fluoride as a public health measure.

The mineral content of tap water can also vary considerably depending on its source and treatment. While drinking water can contribute certain minerals to our daily intake, most essential nutrients are obtained through a balanced diet.

Water may also encounter unwanted substances as it travels through distribution networks and household plumbing. This is why effective water filtration can provide an additional level of treatment at the point of use, helping to improve the quality of the water we drink every day.
