Begin with the subject that matters to you. Learn how each water setting is created, where it can be used and how Enagic products can support everyday routines at home and in business.

Know the setting first

Everyday uses by water type

Use only the designated drinking-water settings for consumption. Strong Kangen Water, Beauty Water and Strong Acidic Water are not drinking waters.

8.5 to 9.5

Kangen Water

Daily drinking water, tea and coffee, smoothies, soups, stocks, rice, grains and general food preparation.

7.0

Clean water

A neutral drinking setting for situations where alkaline water is not appropriate. Follow professional advice for medicines, babies and specific health needs.

6.0

Beauty Water

A mildly acidic non-drinking setting commonly used as part of skincare, haircare and gentle surface routines.

11.5

Strong Kangen Water

A non-drinking setting used for selected food preparation and household cleaning tasks. Follow the operating instructions carefully.

2.5

Strong Acidic Water

A non-drinking setting used for selected household hygiene applications. Store, label and use it according to manufacturer guidance.

Fresh matters

Storage

For hydrogen-rich drinking water, fill an appropriate airtight container with minimal air space and enjoy it as fresh as practical.

Simple ideas

Recipes that begin with better water

These are flavour ideas, not medical recipes. Adjust ingredients for allergies, dietary needs and personal preference.

  • 2 slices fresh ginger
  • Lemon to taste
  • Honey, optional

Steep the ginger, then finish with lemon after the water cools slightly.

Bowl of fluffy cooked rice
Cooking

Fluffy everyday rice

  • 1 cup rice
  • Water according to the rice variety
  • Pinch of salt, optional

Rinse, then cook using a drinking-water setting and your usual method.

Fresh fruit and vegetables after rinsing
Food preparation

Fresh produce rinse

  • Fresh fruit or vegetables
  • Water setting specified in your machine guide
  • Clean bowl or basin

Follow the manufacturer instructions for food preparation, then rinse or prepare as directed.

Low-toxin home

Use the right water before reaching for another product.

Selected non-drinking settings can be incorporated into routines for oily surfaces, glass, dishes, laundry preparation and general household care. Results depend on the surface, soil and method.

  • Kitchen and food-preparation surfaces
  • Glass and mirrors
  • Selected laundry and stain-preparation routines
  • Reusable bottles and household equipment

Always test delicate surfaces first. Strong water settings are not replacements for regulated disinfectants where those products are required.

Beauty Water, pH 6.0

Skin and hair routines

Beauty Water is a mildly acidic, non-drinking setting used for rinsing, misting, skincare and haircare routines. It gives one more useful water option without adding another bottled product to the bathroom.

Garden and plants

Water for the growing spaces

Explore ways Kangen Water can be used across plants, cut flowers, soil, compost and outdoor routines, with the water setting selected for the particular purpose.

Pets

Water is part of their routine too

Fresh water matters to the animals in our homes. Explore drinking, grooming, bowl care, bedding and everyday pet uses, with the appropriate water selected for each purpose.

Food and hospitality

Water is an ingredient

Drinking-water settings can be used in beverages, stocks, rice, baking and food preparation. Cafés, studios and restaurants can also assess higher-use systems and installation requirements.

Setup, cleaning and maintenance

The machine is only one part of the system.

Long-term performance depends on source water, installation, internal cleaning, filter replacement and regular pH checks.

  1. Assess the source water Review local conditions and decide whether pre-filtration is appropriate.
  2. Install correctly Confirm compatible fittings, flow, drainage and space around the unit.
  3. Follow cleaning guidance Use the machine’s cleaning cycle and manufacturer instructions.
  4. Replace consumables Track internal and pre-filter replacement based on use and conditions.
  5. Check output Use pH testing as directed, particularly when source-water conditions change.

Explore the research

The science behind the water

Molecular hydrogen is being researched in areas including exercise, recovery, metabolism and oxidative stress. Explore published studies, explanatory videos and the technology that produces hydrogen-rich water fresh at the tap.

Environmental impact

Move beyond single-use water

An installed system can reduce reliance on packaged water when paired with reusable containers. The real outcome depends on product lifespan, maintenance, household habits and local recycling systems.

Accessories

Containers, filters and setup parts

Useful accessories include compatible filters, pre-filter housings, replacement consumables and suitable airtight containers for freshly produced hydrogen-rich water.

Bottled water

Look past the label

Compare source, treatment, packaging, storage conditions, mineral content and cost rather than assuming every bottle is equivalent. pH alone does not determine whether water is safe or healthy.

Frequently asked questions

Clear answers before you choose.

Is Kangen Water the same as filtered water?

No. A LeveLuk machine first filters suitable tap water and then electrolyses it to produce separate alkaline and acidic water streams. A standard filter does not normally perform electrolysis.

Are all seven settings safe to drink?

No. Only the settings identified as drinking water should be consumed. Beauty Water, Strong Kangen Water and Strong Acidic Water are for specified non-drinking uses.

Do I need pre-filtration?

Not every property needs the same setup. The decision depends on local source water, plumbing, sediment, disinfectants and the particular machine.

Can I take medication with alkaline water?

Enagic guidance directs customers to use the neutral 7.0 Clean Water setting for medication rather than alkaline drinking water.

How do I purchase?

Choose the product you are considering and contact South Coast Hydration. We will explain official store access, outright purchase and any available payment pathways.
