Acid Neutralizers

Acid neutralizers increase water’s pH, making it safe for consumption and preventing corrosion. An effective system also prevents metals like lead, metal and copper from leaching into the system and detrimentally affecting water quality. Understand how an acid neutralizer works by learning about acid water, its effects and how to identify it.

What Is Acid Water?

Rainwater is naturally acidic and becomes neutralized as it passes through materials like limestone before reaching the soil. Acid water is untreated rainwater collected in an aquifer or well and used in homes and buildings. It is distinguished by its high acidity levels, with a pH of 6.4 or below. Signs of acidic water include bluish-green stains on clothes and in your bath or shower, which build up gradually.

Acid water damages plumbing through corrosion which can lead to leaks and bigger issues over time. The easiest way to discover your water’s PH is by doing a test, which can be obtained at a hardware store or local lab.

The Benefits of an Acid Neutralizer Filter

Acid neutralizers have filters with particulate matter or media containing magnesium, calcium or both. The mixture dissolves and is absorbed by water flowing through the filter, increasing the water’s pH. As a result, acidic water turns alkaline.

Alkaline water is consumable and causes little or no damage to plumbing. Using acid neutralizer filters benefits you in several other ways, including:

  • Improved health: Drinking clean and neutralized water leads to better health long-term. The distinct chlorine taste and smell are also removed, improving water’s taste.
  • Cost savings: Access to clean, drinkable tap water saves you from spending excessively on bottled water.
  • Stain prevention: Harmful metals are removed, decreasing the chances of staining and corrosion.
