The 10 step process includes:
- Pre-filtration to remove sediment and particles
- Softening to remove hardness causing minerals
- Carbon filtration to remove objectionable taste and odor as well as any organic chemicals that may be present
- Reverse osmosis to remove 95 percent plus of dissolved solids
- Demineralization to remove remaining minerals and bring the water to zero parts per million of total dissolved solids
- Ultraviolet purification to make sure our water stays virtually free of microbes
- Storage/recirculation to begin the production process. Water is continuously freshened with ozone, a naturally occurring substance close to oxygen in molecular structure. Ozone controls microbial growth without the undesirable byproducts always associated with chlorination
- Ozone purification residual to ensure freshness whenever a new bottle of water is opened
- Final bacteria filtration before bottling. This is the time when food grade minerals can be added to enhance taste
- Washing, sanitizing, and bottling
