The UltraStream:
"A World Class Water Filter!"
Now with improved softening and purifying media
We are constantly working to improve the UltraStream to ensure it is the most advanced alkalizing water filter available in the world. UltraStream now comes with a layer of Zeolite Ceramic Balls which reduce ammonia smells and organic pollutants, remove heavy metals and fluorine. They also soften the water to make the UltraStream better suited for hard water filtering.
The UltraStream Water Filter takes out:
The UltraStream:
Natural Alkaline Water Filter
The UltraStream infuses the water with beneficial alkaline minerals (natural magnesium and calcium). The added alkaline minerals are measured in pH. UltraStream consistently increases your water pH to 8.0 – 9.5.
Drinking alkaline water is a simple way that you can decrease the effects of our generally acidic diet and lifestyle.
The final combination of media layers in the UltraStream soften and stabilize the water, producing a smooth blend of balanced, hydrating water with a taste that you will love. You will never go back to tap water after you have tasted UltraStream water.
The UltraStream:
Hydrogen Water Filter
At AlkaWay, we pioneered the output of molecular hydrogen by the UltraStream Water Filter.
UltraStream infuses molecular hydrogen (H2) into your purified, alkaline drinking water.
There are over 300+ published studies and 1000 scientific articles, on the health benefits of molecular hydrogen (H2). Hydrogen is fast becoming the secret ingredient that we predict will become essential in your daily health regime. UltraStream water is an easy way to give your body increased hydrogen.
Studies point to the possibility of hydrogen to affect inflammation, allergies, cell signalling, free radicals and more.
The UltraStream:
A Natural Water Ioniser
A Water Ioniser enhances water’s ability to donate usable energy to you, the drinker, in the form of antioxidant power.
This ability is measured in Oxidation or Reduction Potential (ORP).
The UltraStream’s unique O-Dobi media delivers consistently high negative ORP levels and donates infused Hydrogen.
That’s why you’ll find it so easy to drink, and begin to see changes in your daily energy levels

The UltraStream:
How it works
Scientifically-proven technology incorporates 12 layers of filtration and energizing media working in unison. Water is fed through the various layers of the UltraStream via a unique system of spiral patterning that directs inflow water to every part of the media.
This all-natural water filter produces the most advanced levels of purity, alkalization, ionization and molecular hydrogen infusion possible in your drinking water.
The UltraStream:
The 12 Layers
Granular Activated Carbon (GAC)
Softens and conditions the water to produce great tasting water.
Magnetic Water Conditioner
A special ceramic magnet is used to stabilize and soften the water.
Crystal Quartz
Softens your water, stabilizes alkalinity and imparts the UltraStream signature mountain stream taste experience.
O-Dobi Beads
Specially formulated alkalizing and ionizing media. Increase alkalinity, create negative ORP, add magnesium and calcium. Infuse water with molecular hydrogen.
Tourmaline
Energizes and softens water with Far InfraRed energy.
FAR Infrared Ceramic Beads
Natural far infrared ceramic beads have been shown to be beneficial for health and wellbeing. They slowly release zinc, iodine, selenium and other essential trace minerals into the water.
Catalytic Carbon (CC)
Catalytic carbon has several advantages over traditional carbon such as better chlorine/chloramines capacity. It is an excellent option for filtering carcinogens, chlorine, chloramines, heavy metals, THMs, H2S and other contaminants in the water.
KDF-85
Patented Kinetic Degradation Fluxion media is designed to remove lead, mercury, nickel, chromium, and other dissolved metals. Reduces hydrogen sulfide, hard water and controls bacteria.
Fluoride Adsorption Barrier
A ceramic compound with an extremely high surface area and pore distribution giving this media the highest possible capacity for Fluoride adsorption.
Polyphosphate
Minimizes the risk of discoloration, staining, scaling, taste/odor and other water quality complaints. Protecting filter media from build-up.
Zeolite Ceramic Balls
Water adsorption and purification media. Removes ammonia smell, organic pollutants, reduces heavy metal, fluorine and softens the water.
Virus Guardian
Cutting edge filtration technology removes submicron pathogens and inorganic contaminants through electro-adhesion and ion exchange. Proven in tests to remove up to 99.99% of viruses, bacteria and cysts. (*For added protection on chlorinated water, we recommend using an appropriate pre-filter If you’re on unchlorinated water, consider a UV system or the correct pre-filter for optimal filtration.)
Filter Pads
0.1 and then 0.25 Micron Filter Pads between each media layer reduces sediment.
The UltraStream:
Virus Guardian
Traditionally the only way to remove viruses, bacteria and cysts for contaminant-laden water to pass through a very fine filtration (under 0.01 microns), the problem is these filters can become get clogged up easily or they remove the good alkaline minerals as well.
Virus Guardian (TM) doesn’t rely on particle size instead by creating a nanomesh of glass fibres coated with a charged mineral, this traps contaminants using electro-adhesion and ion exchange. There is no technology on the market that filters water like Virus Guardian.
Tested by a certified laboratory in the U.S. (testing was done at 6.5pH)
If your water has high levels of contamination we recommend a designated prefilter or UV system. Virus Guardian TM is made exclusively for AlkaWay. For added protection on chlorinated water, we recommend using an appropriate pre-filter. If you’re on unchlorinated water, consider a UV system or the correct pre-filter for optimal filtration.
The UltraStream:
Running Costs
A benchtop UltraStream will deliver water at a total cost of 23 cents/litre for the first year, falling to 8 cents/litre on your 12 month filter change.
(Note: even less if fewer than 4 people).
That’s over 10x cheaper than alkaline bottled water.
The UltraStream:
Plastic Waste
Over one year, every UltraStream filter saves almost two thousand single-use containers (that’s a lot of plastic). This also saves having to transport the water, massively reducing your carbon footprint.

Frequently asked Questions
An UltraStream filter has a 12-month lifespan, subject to usage and source water conditions as usual. We base our 12-month recommendation on a household of four, who consume approximately 8 litres for both drinking and cooking.
If you use less, your filter may last longer. More – and you’ll need to replace it sooner.
Filter life always depends on the quality of the input water. The more unwanted stuff in the water, the harder the UltraStream has to work. For the vast majority of users, 12 months of protection and performance is no problem.
When the filter is replaced (a simple 3-minute job) your UltraStream returns to full filtration, pH, hydrogen, and antioxidant power.
Yes. Through lengthy research and development, the UltraStream uses the world’s best-activated alumina media, removing 78% of Fluoride throughout the life of the filter. Review or download our lab test results.
Up to 95% of Fluoride can be removed when the UltraStream is installed with an additional Fluoride Pre-filter.
All of the attributes of UltraStream water can be controlled by flow rate. The faster the water flows through, the less hydrogen potent it is. We recommend a flow rate of around 0.26 GPM for the best performance. You can easily adjust the flow of the UltraStream by adjusting a small tap underneath the base of the UltraStream. You can then just turn on the kitchen tap and the UltraStream regulates the flow.
Yes, the UltraStream can be connected in series with a reverse osmosis (RO) system. It will add powerful alkalizing and ionizing abilities to your acidic, mineral-depleting RO water.
You could also remove the RO system completely and replace it with the UltraStream.
Yes, unlike electric water ionizers, the UltraStream will also work well with a water softener.
Softened water isn’t something you want to drink or cook with, so the UltraStream is a great solution for consumption when you need to maintain soft water for appliance life and showering.
Our independent laboratory tests used a water sample that was a ‘witches brew’ of pesticides, volatile organics, fluoride, chlorine, heavy metals, and minerals. The UltraStream changed an input pH of 7 to an output pH 9 in these tests. We’ve pushed the lab much farther than the normal lab tests by asking for performance statistics beyond the normal lifespan of the filter. Most water filter tests are taken from the first water out of the filter. Most do not test for possible reduction in performance as the filter is continued in service.

UltraStream’s pH performance is directly related to the input water. Tap water is the only regulated water in the US and is around pH 7.0 for most homes. The UltraStream performs wonderfully in this environment and will consistently produce water ranging from pH 8.0 – 9.0. Most commonly, the water starts at pH 9.0 at installation, and by the time the filter needs to be replaced, it measures closer to pH 8.0. The bottom line: more acidic input water will have a lower pH, more alkaline input water will have a higher pH but both may be adjusted using the flow control at the bottom of the UltraStream.
There are a couple of other advantages as well. In hard water with excessive levels of alkaline minerals (like an overabundance of calcium), the UltraStream uses a special patented media that alters the form of the calcium and prevents it from clogging the filter. It also re-infuses input water with healthier levels and proportions of alkaline minerals, as well as ionizing the water.
We’ve used our two decades of water filter experience to ensure this lasts the life of the filter, so you have excellent purity and performance from start to finish.
Those who utilize well water should also expect great performance. Very often, well water starts a bit above 7.0 and this can also translate to higher pH outputs from the UltraStream as well. A sediment pre-filter will likely be required for well water.
It helps people feel better, perform better and enjoy a healthier life.
It is easy to install, operate and replace the filter.
It is affordable, benchtop costing 75 cents/gallon for the first year and then down to 31 cents/gallon on your 12 month filter change (benchtop version).
- It is a selective antioxidant
- It targets and neutralizes the harmful, cytotoxic free radicals, such as hydroxyl radicals.
- Scientific studies have concluded that Hydrogen may help and prevent a range of diseases including cancer, diabetes, cardiovascular, arthritis, gout, and other inflammatory-related degenerative diseases.
Heavy metals including mercury, lead, aluminum and copper, as well as bacteria, pesticides, algae and fungi. For more details, Review or download laboratory test results.
There are 2 ways to install the UltraStream.
1. Benchtop – For this connection to work, the faucet has to be “normal”. Normal means the tap doesn’t convert to a shower spray, pull out or have a non-standard head. You’ll utilize a diverter valve to control the water flow. When the slider of the diverter valve is pushed one way, it will flow from the tap as normal. When you push it the other way, the water will be sent to the UltraStream.
2. Undersink – For those who either have an upgraded faucet or who just don’t want the attention-grabbing UltraStream on the counter, we have an undersink kit option that includes a separate dedicated faucet with all the connecting pieces. Installation doesn’t require a plumber, but if you’d feel more comfortable using one, go ahead. We have sourced the specially designed vented faucet from the best water filter engineer in the US, so there’s no need to worry about lead. Please note that we cannot be responsible for the efficacy of your undersink installation.
IMPORTANT: Do not try to install the UltraStream undersink without our special vented faucet! Voids any warranty.
The only consideration is for those taking pharmaceutical medicine or suffering from kidney disease. We recommend you consult with your doctor.
UltraStream water may be delivered to the cells more efficiently than tap or bottled, so we recommend not taking any medications with it. We suggest you stop drinking 30 minutes prior to taking the medication and then waiting until at least 30 minutes after.
We have no evidence of adverse results, but give this advice for legal purposes only.
Unlike electric water ionizers, the UltraStream’s filter cartridge actually contains the media that ionizes, alkalizes and infuses the water with molecular hydrogen. So when you change a filter, you get the brand new version, which will incorporate any updated technology we have implemented. That’s why we call it an ‘eternal’ system.
This depends on a number of variables. As a general guide for medium weight people is to drink about 1/3 of your body weight in ounces a day. So if you weigh 150 lbs (68 kgs), you should drink roughly 50 fluid oz (1.47 Liters) of water. If you work out, if it’s hot and you’re sweating more, if you fly, if you have a soda/coffee/tea, then you can choose to drink more. All of those things speed up the elimination of water and therefore, we need more.
The warranty for the UltraStream is 3 years (Conditions Apply) for parts and labour under normal use. The warranty does NOT cover filters as there are too many variables in the source water.
The magnesium reacts with the water and produces magnesium hydroxide and hydrogen gas.
Mg + 2H2O → Mg(OH)2 + 2H → Mg(OH)2 + H2
Mg = Magnesium Metal H2O = Water
Mg(OH)2 = Magnesium Hydroxide H = Atomic Hydrogen (Active Hydrogen)
H2 = molecular hydrogen (Hydrogen Gas)
Yes, the UltraStream is Vegan, the Fluoride reduction media in the UltraStream is Not bone char.
