Machine Related Questions
1. Will the state of the water change when heated or refrigerated?
The state of the water does change when the water is heated or chilled.
When heated, the ORP and pH changes. When chilled, the ORP will change
but the pH will remain the same for up to a week based on the quality of
water.
2. Why does Kangen Water® sometimes have an odor?
Unpurified water has minerals in it 1. LeveLuk is designed to handle a standard amount of minerals. When the amount of minerals or free carbon dioxide 2 is greater than usual, the minerals occasionally react with the anti-bacterial feature 3 of the water supply hose, giving off a smell.
We have prepared a water supply hose for such cases. When
running water through the appliance for the first time, please set it on
purified water and let it run for two to three minutes longer than
usual.
1Minerals
Ca (calcium), Mg (Magnesium), Na (Sodium), Ka (Potassium) and
other nutrients found in food and water. Minerals found in water are
said to be especially good for the health in optimum amounts.
2Free carbon dioxide
Carbon Dioxide found in water. Some people prefer the taste of
water with carbon dioxide, which tends to have lower pH levels. Water
with less carbon dioxide is said to be better for the health. Japanese
sake tastes better when there is a moderate amount of carbon dioxide in
it.
3Anti-Bacterial feature
Appliances such as the LeveLuk that produce something for human
consumption are given anti-bacterial treatment. These appliances often
comprise many different parts, and it is especially important that the
parts where water passes through are not contaminated.
3. Can Kangen Water® be used to take medication?
Kangen Water® is intended for everyday drinking and cooking rather than
for drinking with medication. The Japanese Ministry of Health, Labor and
Welfare gives the following directions:
- Do not take medication with machine-produced water.
- Do not drink machine-produced water if you have anaciditas1
- Seek help from a doctor or pharmacist if you feel an abnormality in the
body, or continued intake does not appear to improve symptoms. This is
because the effectiveness of medication using Kangen Water® has not yet
been tested. The pH level of stomach acids is about 1.8pH, and
medication is prescribed in accordance to this pH level in order for it
to take effect past the stomach. Therefore, to ensure full effect of the
medication, we recommend leaving some time between taking the
medication and drinking Kangen Water®.
1Anaciditas
This symptom, also known as gastric acholrhydria, is found in
people with a stomach acidity higher than the average human pH level of
1.8pH. This makes it harder for them to digest food. These people should
not drink alkaline Kangen Water®.
4. What about differences in quality of raw water?
The type of original tap water used affects the quality of
Kangen Water® and acidic water produced by electrolysis. Although water
produced with municipal city water is not affected, the efficiency of
electrolysis drops when well water is used since it tends to hold a lot
of free carbon dioxide1, as well as in cases where water
comprising only a small amount of electrolytic minerals is used.
Conversely, in cases where the water has excess minerals, the taste may
be affected, or Kangen Water® produced may be too high in pH level.
Since the water pressure of the faucet affects the production of water,
it is important to confirm that genuine Kangen Water® is being produced
by regularly checking that it is set at the correct pH level, and
checking the bubbles. In order to take into account the differences in
the quality of the original tap water, please run a check on a daily
basis.
1Free Carbon Dioxide
Carbon Dioxide found in water. Some people prefer the taste of
water with carbon dioxide, which tends to have lower pH levels. Water
with less carbon dioxide is said to be better for the health. Japanese
sake tastes better when there is a moderate amount of carbon dioxide in
it.
5. What are the benefits of consuming Kangen Water®?
The benefits of consuming Kangen Water® are the minerals it contains and the optimal hydration it offers.
6. What is Mengen Effect of consuming Kangen Water®?
Depending on how it is consumed, and on the individual's physical state,
it is possible (although uncommon) to experience constipation or
diarrhea a few days to a few weeks after first starting to drink it. In
herbal terms this is known as the Mengen effect1. The two
conditions are particularly similar in that both cases, the remedy is so
effective that it has a negative effect. If this occurs, the amount of
intake should be reduced to half or a fourth of the previous amount
until symptoms clear. Once symptoms have subsided, it is okay to resume
intake. However, increasing the amount of intake will not alleviate the
symptoms. Since halting intake completely may also affect the body, it
is best to continue intake, but in lesser amounts. If there are no signs
of improvement, please consult a doctor or pharmacist.
1Mengen effect
Your body may start hurting several hours or a day after you
receive chiropractic. The technical term for this is the Mengen effect.
It is a natural physical response, where the body tries to go back to
normal after muscles and bones have been adjusted.
7. What is beauty water (acidic water) and Strong Acidic Water?
Acidic water has a pH of around 5.5-6.5 and strong acidic water has a pH
of lower than 2.7. The Japanese Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare
has certified acidic water as an astringent1. Strong Acidic
Water has excellent cleaning characteristics and can be used to clean
household surfaces and to remove pesticides, dirt and other impurities
from food.
1Astringent
Acidic water works as an astringent for toning your skin. 'Astringent water' refers to acidic beauty water.
8. How do I use Kangen Water® for beauty care?
Because winter air is extremely cold and dry, skin care is especially
important during this time. Without taking care of your skin properly,
you will suffer from dry and rough skin. Bodily fluids play an important
role in maintaining your body temperature and the health of your skin.
Drinking alkaline Kangen Water® can help maintain glowing, smooth skin.
Since it is important to maintain your skin's pH level between 5.0 and
6.0, we recommend spraying acidic water1 on your skin at
regular intervals throughout the day. During the winter, bathing in
acidic water can help preserve the moisture of your skin. We also
recommend that you eat foods and fruits that include high levels of
vitamin C, A and E. Treating your skin with beauty water will let you
enjoy life even more by giving you smooth and youthful skin.
1Acidic water
Acidic ionized water produced by electrolysis with a pH between
4.0 and 6.5. Its astringent effect is certified by the Japanese Ministry
of Health, Labor and Welfare. Excellent for skin care.
9. What is the proper method of Strong Kangen Water/Strong Acidic Water, and how long do they last?
Among the five types of water produced by LeveLuk, the two types for
drinking (purified water/Kangen Water®) must be used fresh. Please keep
these two types of water in the refrigerator for no more than 4-5 days
and replace the water in your take-out bottle everyday. For water used
for domestic purposes, including Acidic Water, Strong Acidic Water and
Strong Kangen Water, less care is required, but we recommend changing
your supply once a week. To store, please place the water in a
lightproof container1, fill it to the very top to avoid unnecessary contact with air, and store it in a cool, dark place (the refrigerator is ideal).
1Lightproof container
Container that keeps light out.
10. What is the proper amount/method of drinking Kangen Water®?
There are no set rules regarding how to drink Kangen Water® or how much to consume.
11. How do we begin drinking Kangen Water®?
It is most common to begin by setting a low pH 1 level
(between pH8 and pH9.0), and gradually increasing the amount of intake.
After continuing regular intake for about two weeks, gradually adjust
the pH level and amount of intake (between pH9.0-pH9.5) based on your
bodily needs and physical condition. The Kangen Water® should be as
fresh as possible.
For children or seniors, set the pH level at an even lower
level upon starting, and gradually increase it as the body adjusts to
the current pH level.
In the case of infants (until about a year old), since breast
milk or milk is the only thing they consume, the intestinal movement is
generally different from adults, and the use of Kangen Water® is not
encouraged until the infant begins to consume more sophisticated foods.
In any case, Kangen Water® should not be used to make powdered milk for
infants.
1pH
The logarithm of the reciprocal of hydrogen-ion concentration in
gram atoms per liter. It is used as a measure of the acidity or
alkalinity of a solution on a scale of 0-14 (where 7 is neutral).
Machine Related Questions
12. Why is the appliance leaking?
It is most likely that the ring (stopper) on the cartridge came off
during transportation, or that you have forgotten to take off the O-ring1 when replacing the cartridge. It is highly unlikely that the leaking has been caused by a mechanical fault in the appliance.
1O-ring
Small, round rubber gasket that prevents leakage when connecting the various pipes to the appliance.
13. How do I use the spout stand?
Two types of water run through the LeveLuk machine, and Kangen Water®
will be produced only when the two run at a fixed ratio. If the
discharge hose is bent, or the stand is positioned higher than the
bottom tip of the flexible pipe, acidic water cannot be produced
properly. In turn, stretching the hose below the sink to collect water
in a separate container will result in loss of Kangen Water®. In this
case, please do not pull the spout stand to the bottom, but prepare a
separate hose to collect water in the container. Please make it a daily
habit to check the water using the pH testing solution and hydrogen
bubbles.
14. How do you use the reset switch?
There is a square switch situated under the black cover on the
front-left of the appliance. Please make sure to push this button (it
should make a beeping sound) when you first set up the LeveLuk or when
replacing the filter. This allows for the correct display on the monitor
(liquid crystal display) of all the information stored in the LeveLuk
microcomputer. This reset button must be pushed in order for information
to be displayed on the LCD screen. It notifies the user when there is
too much or too little water, sets off an alarm when heated water passes
through by mistake, and informs you to monitor the water flow. By using
the reset switch correctly on the LeveLuk, you insure the delivery of
safe and healthy water.
15. How many years does the electrolysis cell remain effective?
The electrode plate in LeveLuk's electrolysis cell is thicker and larger
than other companies' products. The appliance is designed this way in
order to increase electrolysis capacity and durability. Another
important reason is to guarantee the production of maximum volumes of
water. The electrode plates are made of the very highest-quality
titanium, plated with platinum. Needless to say, due to this choice of
materials, the electrode plates are completely rustproof. The
electrolysis cell is to a water production appliance what the engine
generator is to a car. We can recommend our products with the utmost
confidence because we use only the best materials. Our electrolysis cell
and control (PCB)1 secures a high ORP2, and produces safe, healthy and delicious water.
The automatic cleaning mechanism ensures that the electrolysis cell is always clean, and it should last 15 years.
1Control PCB (Print Circuit Board)
A board comprising print circuits that manage various data
related to the appliance. Hi-tech components/condenser also built in.
2ORP (Oxidation Reduction Potential)
Electrical potential needed to reduce or slow down rusting and
decay (oxidization). This process is also known as deoxidization. ORP is
measured in terms of negative mVs. The ideal ORP level for the human
body is said to be between -150mV and -400mV.
16. What should I do when I notice a built-up of clusters in my water?
Small amounts of minerals are found in unpurified water (tap
water/sewage water). During electrolysis, minerals become concentrated
on the minus side of the electrolysis circuit, causing clusters to
attach to the electrode plate. LeveLuk can remove the clusters by
reversing the voltage, but sometimes these clusters fall off naturally.
When you pour this water into a stainless container or glass, the
clusters stick to the bottom and sides. It is difficult to remove these
clusters by scraping with metallic objects, etc. Instead, please pour
vinegar into the container and leave it for 12 to 15 hours. You could
substitute citric acid1 for vinegar if you like. These clusters are not harmful even if consumed, so please do not worry.
Furthermore, if you set the machine on beauty water (acidic
water) , and let the water run for two to three minutes, you can
decrease the amount of minerals significantly. Please clean containers
that you put Kangen Water® in at least once every three months by the
above mentioned method. 1Citric acid
Citric acid is extracted from apples. It has the ability to
dissolve clusters of minerals such as Ca and Mg. An ideal and safe way
of cleaning water production appliances is to circulate citric acid
through the appliance.
17. How is the machine cleaned?
LeveLuk has an automatic cleaning system. The amount of minerals in
the supply water, such as Ca and Mg can vary greatly, and mineral1
clusters inevitably stick to the electrode plates. They can be broken
off, however, easily by reversing the electric current (switching the
+,-polarity). Mineral clusters attached to the electrode plate decrease
the electrolysis capacity of the appliance, resulting in a failure to
produce primary Kangen Water®. The amount of minerals attached to the
electrolysis cell varies according to the quantity of minerals in the
tap water.
LeveLuk's automatic cleaning mechanism is activated for 20
seconds when continual electrolysis reaches 15 minutes. When using
LeveLuk in areas where the water has a high mineral content, change the
setting to "beauty water" (2nd from bottom) and turn on the tap slightly
so the water is running gently. This will reverses the electric current
and remove the crystals in the electrolysis cell after 2-3 minutes.
Changing the setting to "beauty water" once a day for 30 seconds is
another way to clean the electrolysis cell. The cleaning function is
necessary to maximize the life span of the electrolysis cell. 1Minerals
Ca (calcium), Mg (Magnesium), Na (Sodium), Ka (Potassium) and
other nutrients found in food and water. Minerals found in water are
said to be especially good for the health in optimum amounts.
18. The upper flexible pipe leaks acidic water when set on beauty care water. How can I stop the leaking?
Before pouring water through the flexible pipe, you need to take off the scales1 (mineral clusters) stuck to the electrode plate2 by reversing the voltage3,
that is, changing the plus and minus of the electric current. This is
necessary for producing proper acidic water. By removing the scales and
running acidic water through the flexible pipes even when you are not
using acidic water, you can keep the electrode plate clean and increase
its durability. Moreover, using the upper flexible pipe makes the
appliance easier to use especially when washing your face or pouring
water into a plastic bottle.
1Scales
Ca, Mg, Na, Ka and other mineral clusters are produced when
water is electrolyzed. These clusters are called scales and are not
harmful even if consumed.
2Electrode plate
A metal board that conducts electricity during electrolysis. It
is made of titanium and plated in platinum. It has superb electrolysis
capacity and high durability.
3Reversing the voltage
In order to electrolyze water, the plus and minus of the direct
currents must be clear. When mineral clusters get attached to the
electrode plate, there is a need to reverse the plus and minus of the
current to remove the clusters. This basically sets the appliance on a
cleaning function, similar to when it is placed on the "beauty water"
setting.
19. What if there's no cartridge replacement notice even after a year?
The display screen on the LeveLuk will notify you when the total volume
of water produced reaches 1,500 gallons. The microcomputer controls this
notification mechanism, please make sure to press the reset switch to
activate the microcomputer when you put in a new filter. The reset
switch is located on the top right of the cartridge section (inside the
black cover on the left). Please press it until it beeps. The
microcomputer controls other information for the LeveLuk as well, which
is why it is critical to remember to press the reset button.
20. What optional purification parts are available for the LeveLuk?
We provide a variety of optional accessories to maximize the benefits of LeveLuk DX.
- Hoses for supplying and discharging water -
Although any length of your choice is available (in 40 inch units),
shorter hoses are easier to use for this purpose. The hose offered by
our company has special anti-bacterial1 properties that distinguish them from general products.
- Pre-filter - Useful in the removal of
foreign substances such as iron rust, dirt, and sand, especially when
the original water supply is from a well. It can also clear lime and
helps protect the appliance.
1Anti-bacterial coating
All the parts in the LeveLuk, but especially those that come in
contact with the water in the process of filtering, have had
anti-bacterial treatment to avoid any kind of contamination.
21. What is the difference between LeveLuk's electrolysis cell and those of other companies?
Electrolysis of water requires high quality electrolysis plates, and
the size, thickness, and number of the plates becomes crucial in
maintaining durability. The "double cross line" method1 used
by other companies has the appliance's overall durability in mind. In
these appliances, two small electrolysis cells are used in turn to
provide resting time, but this limits the volume of water than can be
produced at one time. LeveLuk on the other hand, has five or seven
electrolysis plates, the largest number in the industry, and while
maintaining durability via their large surface area and thickness, they
allow the appliance to produce large volumes of water (maximum Kangen
Water®: 0.8-2.0 gallons/minute).
Every function, such as supplying voltage according to
switching of the pH setting and producing highly acidic water in the
same electrolysis cell, is carefully monitored by the microcomputer. It
ensures that the appliance can be used safely for a long period of time.
We recommend that you produce "beauty water" once a day for at least
three minutes to improve the appliance's durability. 1Double cross line method
Also referred to as the auto cross changer method. An
electrolysis system where the appliance is equipped with two small
electrolysis cells in order to enhance durability by alternating the
cells with each water flow.
22. How does the automatic draining system work?
LeveLuk is equipped with an automatic water-draining system that
prevents contamination and proliferation of germs in residue water. The
automatic water draining system is activated once the water stops. It
takes approximately 30 seconds for all water in the electrolysis cell,
water purification cartridge, and all channels to be drained through the
hose (grey). Please note that the automatic water draining system is
activated when the water level drops, and positioning the spout higher
than the base of the appliance for any reason (pooling of acidic water
in the tank, hanging the hose from a rack because of its length) may
result in a failure to discharge residue water. Leaving water behind may
cause problems with taste and smell. Please be sure to have the spout
hose lower than the appliance before turning the tap off.
23. The flexible pipe is not allowing for the smooth flow of water. What should I do?
When the original tap water supply is high in minerals (most often seen
with well water), a large amount of crystals are formed in the
electrolysis cell. If this progresses, chunks of crystals can become
stuck in the net before the flexible pipe, obstructing the water
outflow. In order to remove this clog, poke the area with a piece of
wire and blow air into the LeveLuk from the spout. Please remove the
flexible pipe from LeveLuk when cleaning in this manner.
24. What are the changes to the Kangen Water® outlet as a result of switching water production mode?
Electrolyzing water produces Kangen Water® (alkaline) on the
negative pole and acidic water on the positive pole. LeveLuk is designed
so that the flexible pipe attached to the top is connected to the
negative electrolysis cell, while the discharge (gray) hose, attached to
the base of the LeveLuk, is connected to the positive electrolysis
cell.
For this reason, Kangen Water® and strong Kangen Water® comes
out of the flexible pipe, and acidic water and strong acidic water comes
out of the discharge hose. Of the four production modes, when the
appliance is set on the "beauty water" mode, the electric current is
reversed, as it is done for cleaning, so acidic water comes out the
flexible pipe and Kangen Water® comes out the discharge hose. This is
the only time the waters are discharged on the opposite ends. Since the
acidic mode reverses polarity, it has the effect of breaking off calcium
crystals attached to the negative pole and can be used as a manual
cleaning mode.
25. What is special about LeveLuk's strong acidic water production system?
Traditionally, strong acidic water could only be produced with large
devices for institutional use (at the time, strong acidic water was
called hyper acidic water). We thought that it would be highly
beneficial for people's hygiene if they could produce and use strong
acidic water in their homes. The LeveLuk makes it possible to produce
fairly large quantities of strong acidic water and strong Kangen Water®
at home.
Misc Questions
26. What is the oxidation-reduction potential (ORP)?
The oxidation reduction potential1 is the electrical
potential needed to reduce or slow down oxidation such as rusting.
Kangen Water® must have a negative ORP in order to be considered good,
especially for drinking.
ORP is the strength to bond with active oxygen2
reducing power, and can be measured through electronic designs in the
hardware. Although a negative value is desirable for deoxidization
power, the actual value varies from region to region. For example, in
Osaka city, tap water records an ORP of +580-600mV, but after using
LeveLuk, the ORP becomes pH9.5 and records the ideal from -150mV to
-400mV. When the original water supply's ORP increases, the ORP of
Kangen Water® moves in direct proportion. On the Japanese archipelago,
LeveLuk is capable of producing water with negative levels of ORP at
pH9.5 even where original water supply marks the highest positive levels
of ORP.
1Oxidation-reduction potential (ORP)
Electrical potential needed to reduce or slow down rusting and
decay (oxidization). This process is also known as deoxidization. ODR is
measures in terms of negative mVs. The ideal ODR level for the human
body is said to be between -150mV and -400mV.
2Active oxygen
Also known as free radicals. Medically it is known to enter the
body when one's daily rhythm of life or diet goes astray when under
stress. It is the type of oxygen that causes illness and aging.
Maintaining a daily rhythm will help keep this oxygen from entering your
body!
27. What is "calcium addition"?
In ancient times, the Japanese archipelago was connected to what is now
China, but over the years it broke off and drifted toward the Pacific
Ocean. Japan's soil was acidic back then, and since there are many
volcanoes along the Sea of Japan, the soil has remained acidic, and has
not become neutral or alkaline. As a result, the water in areas toward
the Sea of Japan is more acidic than in areas closer to the Pacific
Ocean. Although acidic water, which has an astringent effect1,
is good for the skin if used for everyday chores and facial treatment,
it is not suitable for drinking. Even when this water is electrolyzed,
it does not produce water with standard pH levels. This water is much
better for consumption than unpurified water. The ORP measuring device
is the best way to see this for your self, in which case there is a need
to add calcium glycerophosphate2 to the water. By doing so,
pH levels can be increased in intervals of 0.5. We recommend that people
living in regions on the side of the Sea of Japan add calcium to their
water.
1Astringent effect
Acidic water contains a small amount of chlorine ions and has an
astringent effect. This water is good for toning your skin.
2Calcium glycerophosphate (Calcium powder)
If the pH level does not increase even after electrolyzing water
(especially when using well water or tap water in areas toward the Sea
of Japan), adding calcium powder will increases the pH level. ==> Back to Top
28. Why doesn't Kangen Water® turn the pH testing solution blue (purple)?
Kangen Water® produces a yellow/green color (neutral reading)
in pH testing solutions even if it made on the setting for pH 9.5. This
phenomenon is often observed in areas where well water is used. Even
water that tests neutral has been through the electrolytic process and
has the benefits. This is caused by the carbon dioxide in well water,
which is produced from decomposing organic matter. Carbon dioxide
readily dissolves in water, making it acidic. Water with carbon dioxide
can be electrolyzed, however, the carbon dioxide is neutralized during
the process. Therefore the water tests neutral on the pH scale. Driving
out the carbon dioxide from Kangen Water® will result in the Kangen
Water® expressing blue in pH test liquid.
When measuring the pH using a pH testing solution, place a few
drops in the flask before pouring in freshly made Kangen Water®. There
is carbon dioxide in your Kangen Water® if the color turns blue
initially, but eventually turns yellow.
29. Some white bits are floating in the Kangen Water®. What are they?
Your original tap water supply always contains some minerals.
Especially on the pacific side of Japan, including Okinawa, the land is
more alkaline and minerals crystallize readily onto the electrolysis
plates and some break off into the water. Although they look like
foreign substances, there is no harm in drinking these mineral clusters.
In order to prevent the mineral clusters from falling into the water,
we recommend changing the setting to "acidic water mode" (run reverse
voltage) and increase the pressure and quantity of water once or twice a
day for 3-4 minutes to clean out the appliance. Because of the caustic
lime1 situation in Okinawa, we recommend people living in this area to use the pre-filter2 (sold separately).
Depending on the situation, it may be appropriate to use both
of filters together. When mineral clusters stick to aluminum or anodized
aluminum3, it turns brown and becomes difficult to take off.
Please refrain from using aluminum or anodized aluminum pans and pots
as much as possible.
1Caustic lime
Okinawa is said to exist on top of coral. As a result, the water in Okinawa has a high mineral content.
2Pre-filter
A filter used in situations where the original water supply
contains a high percentage of well water or chemical substance. The
transparent filter makes it easy to tell when the cartridge needs
changing.
3Anodized aluminum
An aluminum alloy often used in household pots.
30. What is the relationship between the oxidation-reduction potential (ORP) and pH?
The oxidization reduction potential is the electrical potential needed
to reduce or slow down rusting and decay (oxidization.) The ORP1
also represents the reduction capacity to attract active oxygen. The
optimum levels for the human body is between -150– -400mV. The ORP is
also closely related to pH levels. When the pH increases, the ORP also
increases. It is also possible to increase ORP through electrolysis. The
value depends greatly on the original water supply. An ideal ORP may
not be achieved if the original water has a pH lower than 7.0. Please
make sure to examine the properties of your original water, for failure
to do so may lead to inexplicable errors.
1ORP (Oxidation-Reduction Potential)
Electrical potential needed to reduce or slow down rusting and
decay (oxidization). This process is also known as deoxidization. ODR is
measures in terms of negative mVs. The ideal ODR level for the human
body is said to be between -150mV and -400mV.
31. What is the white fogginess in Kangen Water®?
The white fogginess apparent in Kangen Water® is simply a result of
hydrogen gas being released through electrolysis, and does not pose a
problem. If you rest the glass for a while the white fogginess should
disappear.
Research focused on dissolved hydrogen released through
electrolysis of water was presented at The Japan Functional Water
Association Meeting1 in late December of 2002. It reported
that Kangen Water® is effective in controlling the oxidation of lipids
in the body. It also reported that dissolved hydrogen2 present in the colloidal3 state has a higher activity level than active hydrogen4
produced at the instance of reaction. Based on this report, the need
for broader data collection and further scientific analysis was
recognized.
1The Japan Functional Water Association Meeting
The Japan Functional Water Association Workshop was established
on September 13, 2002. In December of the same year, the first Japan
Functional Water Association Academic Convention was held in Tokyo.
2Dissolved hydrogen
Most commonly measured using a diaphragm polalograph-type
dissolved hydrogen electrode. The solubility of dissolved hydrogen is
about 1.5mg/L.
3Colloidal
Low molecular weight (colloidal) particles dispersed in liquid.
Each particle is between 1m and 0.1. The majority of substances that
make up organisms are colloidal and have complex movements.
4Active hydrogen
Professor Sanetaka SHIRAHATA of Kyushu University announced the
"active hydrogen deoxidized water theory" on removing the active
hydrogen in Kangen water. Related academic circles are debating whether
or not active hydrogen exists in a stable state, given that it is an
unstable free radical.
32. Can LeveLuk be used overseas?
LeveLuk is made to be used in USA. When using LeveLuk in other
countries, it must be adjusted to the particular voltage (110V-240V) and
water quality of the country. Since there are few countries where you
can drink tap water straight from the tap, and many countries where the
water has extremely high calcium content, we recommend selecting a
filter that suits the country. Many laws must be taken into
consideration for exporting goods, but individual use overseas is not a
problem.
33. Are there any cautions regarding the use of LeveLuk in cold regions?
LeveLuk is designed for use anywhere, but cold districts especially must
be aware how to freeze-proof the device during the winter. When you
turn off the water, the LeveLuk activates the automatic water draining
system and drains the remaining water through the gray hose, thereby
ensuring that no water is left in the appliance. Although there have not
yet been any reports of accidents or breakdowns caused by freezing, if
acidic water is left in the tank intentionally by lifting the hose or if
the hose is positioned higher than the bottom of the LeveLuk due to
space constraints, the automatic water draining system will not operate,
and the remaining water may freeze, leading to accidents. Be sure to
keep the hose lower than the base of the LeveLuk when turning off the
water flow.
