Using & Testing the Ionia Super S-12 Water Ionizer

These two videos have good information about the Super S12 Water Ionizer.

Whatever you want is better with the Ionia Super-S12 Water Ionizer:

The highest performance in a water ionizer for drinking, very high antioxidants, and a wide range of pH levels.
Very Versatile: The most important use is drinking, but water can also be used for washing, watering plants, and killing germs and viruses.
Superior filtration. The very effective proprietary filters clean the water really well. I can taste the difference.
The saline port adds versatility and strength for those who want the extra benefits of water, which naturally and powerfully cleans and sanitizes without chemicals.
Note: Set the incoming water flow to 2.0 l/m or slower.

Ionia Super-S12 Water Ionizer makes the healthiest water in five different ways.

Alkaline ionized water for healthy drinking water: The Ionia Super-S12 water ionizer is the pinnacle of perfection in making healthy ionized water. My Testing of ionized water for my drinking level shows it is superior. This is the best of the best-ionized water for detoxing and making your cells the healthiest they can be. See the Benefits of Ionized Water for plenty of information about how healthy ionized water is for a body.
Acidic Beauty-Water: The byproduct of producing alkaline ionized water is acidic water, which is good for skin, hair and plants.
Super-strong acidic water: When you use the saline injection function of the Ionia Super-S12 (see demo, above), you can produce hypochlorous acid in the water. This is called ECA water (electrochemically activated). ECA water gives professional effectiveness and strength in killing germs and viruses on contact (within about 10 seconds). It is an even more potent all-natural germ-killer than 2.5 acidic water alone. Note: When you vary the amount and type of saline solution you use and the flow rate, you can vary the range of hypochlorous acid produced. The acidic water will retain its germ-killing capability virtually forever.
Super-strong alkaline water is an all-natural cleanser (and has also been proven effective in germ-fighting). It cleans dirt and grime and degreases quite effectively. I have used super-strong alkaline water as a pre-wash to effectively remove blood, chocolate, and other tough stains from clothing and linens and found it to be more effective than anything else.
For an even milder sanitizer and cleaner, you can skip using saline altogether and set the ionizer on level 4. Then, collect the acidic water from the grey hose. Very high or low pH water (strong alkaline and acidic) is germ-killing in and of itself.

Features of the Ionia Super-S12 Water Ionizer:

Tests best among other water ionizers for pH and ORP (oxidation-reduction potential)
Made to produce super oxidized water, strong enough to kill all bacteria and viruses.
Simple to set up and use.
Comes with a diverter, which can hook directly to your sink faucet.
No chemicals, and no extra saline solution to buy!
With 12 massive plates, the Super-S12 uses about 350-400 watts of power.
Proprietary, patented, internal cleaning method, so your plates will never scale up over time.
Two internal filters that remove harmful chemicals from drinking water.

Customers Rave About the Ionia Super-S12 Water Ionizer

"I wanted to acknowledge and report that I am a happy as-a-clam customer. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE MY Ionia S12 WATER IONIZING MACHINE. LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LUUUUUUUUUUV it! Couldn't be a more satisfied customer. Wish i bought this machine sooner, but am sure glad i have it now." EM
"The S12 is my third ionizer, and by far the best." TL
"Great machine - better than I had hoped! We bought this machine specifically to make 2.5ph Acid water and 12.5 PH Alkaline water for our farm and it really does the job. We have been running about 35 gallons every second day and have been loving it. We are using this for plant health (2.5 kills molds and funguses, 12.5 kills pests) and are finding it works great. The autoclean is fantastic and even at top power and running straight for about 3 hours (with cleaning in between) the machine barely gets warm. This machine is the best answer to anyone that recommends Kangen water and wants you to pay 6k for a machine that is not as good as this one!!!! Oh yeah, and the 9.5ph water is FANTASTIC to drink - which is probably why most people are buying the machine.. but really, this thing is a work horse for the entire scale!!!!!! Also, easy set up, great instructions on the site for anything that is hard to understand (they are made in Korea)." Myron C.
"I switched my old system for the SuperS12. I'm very happy with it. It's super easy to use, and gives the highest antioxidants ever. The drinking water tastes great, and my husband likes the taste even better than our earlier machine. I can get water for cleaning and sanitizing without the hassle I used to go through, and with an even better range of pH than I was getting. I was happy with my old water ionizer, but am happier with this one. I gave my old ionizer to my daughter, so everyone wins." TL

Drinking Water

The Ionia Super-S12 Water Ionizer is the most potent water ionizer I have ever seen. It has great filtration, and its ORP and molecular hydrogen levels are as outstanding as I've ever seen. It's so simple to use. You just push the lever down, and out comes the ionized water. The cleaning cycle is automatic and continuous, so it mostly happens hassle-free in the background.

You can use ANY potable water source. To set it up, simply hook the Ionia Super-S12 up to your faucet and follow the instructions. The saline water in the saline chamber is optional.

Filtration and Filter Conservation

The filter life is a thousand gallons, but only when filtering drinking-quality water on the right side.

The filters are only used when you are using one of the drinking water settings. This filter conservation saves the life of your filters by only filtering when you need it. The filtration is high-tech and excellent filtration.

When making super-sanitizing water, you don't need these filters out of the left side, so they are bypassed, saving you from unnecessary waste.

This conservation feature saves the life of your filters by only filtering when you need it.

Acidic Water

There are two kinds of acidic water,

The mildly acidic "beauty water" is also great for watering plants.
Or the super strong acidic water that kills germs on contact.

The Super S12 makes both of these waters better than all competitors.

Just a side note, acidic water will retain its germ-killing capability virtually forever.

There's also an even more powerful, Super-strong acidic water that the Super S12 is capable of: This requires you to use lab-quality saline solution in the saline bin. The process produces a chemical called hypochlorous acid, also called ECA water (electrochemically activated).

ECA water gives professional effectiveness and strength in killing germs and viruses on contact. It is an even more potent all-natural germ-killer than salt-free 2-3 pH acidic water alone, which kills germs within 10 seconds. Or, 4 pH water, which kills germs within about a minute.

Strong Alkaline Water for Cleaning

The Super S12 also makes Super-strong alkaline water, another all-natural cleanser (but on the other side of the spectrum than super-low acidic water). Strong alkaline has also been proven effective in germ-fighting and cleaning grease, dirt, and grime.

How Strong Do You Really Need?

I have experimented with many acidic and alkaline water levels for cleaning purposes and prefer milder water for my home. In other words, I don't care if the acidic water gets down to 3 pH (4 is good enough), and the degreasing high-alkaline water can be a moderate 10.5 pH around my kitchen and laundry.

But everybody's different, and this machine has the power and capability to provide better performance than the competition and at a price far more fair than all others in its class.

Precautions to Consider When Using the Saline Injection Function

Don't consume water made with saline injection. It's only for cleaning or disinfecting purposes.
Always remember to give the machine's left side (the super strong side) an extra cleaning cycle after every use of the left side. Turn it back on after pouring strong alkaline or acidic water, and it will automatically enter this cleaning cycle for you.

Advanced Self Cleaning

The Ionia Super-S12 also has advanced continuous cleaning, giving the Machine extra life and performance.

How to Reset the Filter

When the Machine is plugged in, the electric switch is ON, and the water-flow knob is in the OFF position, the water ionizer is in "standby mode." Follow these instructions when the ionizer is in standby mode.

Press/hold the top-left (Strong Alkaline) button to get into the Filter-Reset mode.
Press/hold the top-right button (normal Alkaline) to reset filter 1.
Press/hold the middle-right button (Acidic button) to reset filter 2.
Then press the Voice button (middle-left) to save the settings.

Instructions for Getting Alkaline Ionized Drinking Water & its Acidic Water Byproduct

Place a glass or container under the top alkaline spout.
If you want to collect acidic water out of the bottom hose, place the hose in a container.
Pull the lever on the top-right down.
It will automatically pour alkaline water out at the level you used last time. If this is your first use, touch the Alkaline button (top-right) to toggle the levels until you get to the level you want.

1.5 Minute Demo (With Testing)

This video shows the operation and testing of the Ionia Super-S12 Water Ionizer.

Making Sanitizing Water

Hypochlorous acid is the active ingredient in electro-chemically activated super-oxidized water (described by the CDC). Here is the procedure I use for my own use, sanitizing around the house. This gives me adequate levels of hypochlorous acid for home use (around 30 to 50 ppm).

Fill the saline bin with acidic water or distilled water
Put a few rock-chunks of Himalayan rock salt in the bottom of the bin
The saline will naturally diffuse into the water in the bin over a several-hour period

If you want a stronger concentration you can purchase saline-water concentrate online.

Or, if you prefer, you can opt to not use saline water in the port (i.e., don't add the rock salt chunks) and still get a fantastic germicidal super-oxide water which has about 2.5 pH with the strong-acidic setting.

All-Natural Sanitation

From the CDC website: https://www.cdc.gov/infectioncontrol/pdf/guidelines/disinfection-guidelines-H.pdf

"The microbicidal activity of a new disinfectant, “superoxidized water,” has been examined The concept of electrolyzing saline to create a disinfectant or antiseptics is appealing because the basic materials of saline and electricity are inexpensive and the end product (i.e., water) does not damage the environment. The main products of this water are hypochlorous acid (e.g., at a concentration of about 144 mg/L) and chlorine. As with any germicide, the antimicrobial activity of superoxidized water is strongly affected by the concentration of the active ingredient (available free chlorine)" "The solution is nontoxic to biologic tissues."

Instructions for Protecting the Super S-12 from Saline Solution Use

Always flush out of the water cells any time you use the saline-injection function (left side of machine).

How to Flush Sodium Out of the Water Cell

As a final step, after turning off the water-flow, you need to:

Pull down the on/off lever one more time and push the strong acidic button for the machine, and a special cleaning cycle will automatically flush out the water cell of all sodium residue. This flush takes 30 seconds.
Then, pull down on the lever again to clean the other side of the water cell.

This final rinse routine is very necessary for the life of your water ionizer. Your water ionizer may last 20 or so years if you always remember to flush it after producing super-sanitizing water. However it may only last 5 years if you constantly forget this step. If you do forget this step, what will happen is the next time you go to get alkaline drinking water, it will do the cleaning flush. If you notice this happening a lot, you should train yourself better to flush the machine after every time of getting super-sanitizing water.

Remove the Protective Film Covering the Display Panel

Some people just leave this film on, but it looks so much prettier with it off.

All water ionizers have a plastic film covering the display panel. Remove it to uncover a more beautiful surface. Start in one corner and slowly pick at it until part of it comes up. Then pull the rest of the film off easily after that.

Closing the Door (Panel) on the Front of the Machine

If you don't do it right, the front panel won't close. So take care to observe these instructions:

Place the saline bin back into its spot. Make sure it is in there correctly. The bottom has grooves for it to fit in between.
Place the left side of the filter panel in both spots (top-bottom). You can now operate the panel as a door. Don't try to close the right side just yet.
Push the right side closed, and if needed, press on the middle of the door, too.

Programming Options

The Ionia Super-S12 Water Ionizer is already programmed for average water quality. If you want to raise or lower ionization strength beyond what you can already do by selecting levels on the Machine, you can program the "base" power level. Here's how:

Push/hold the "Mode" button (bottom-left) at the same time as the "Strongest Alkaline/Acidic" button (top-left).
A screen will appear that says "Base", and has a number showing.
Use the normal "Alkaline" button (top-right) as an up-arrow, or "Acidic" button (middle-right) as a down-arrow, to get to the level you want.
Push the "Voice" button to save the programming, and you're done.
