G'Day folks, ROD from My Water Filter here today.
What we're gonna do is just have a quick look at some rainwater. Here we have a typical Australian situation, a shed, gutters on it, rain water's landed on the roof coming through these pipes and collect it into this tank.
So what do you got when you turn up and you got to rain water tank full of water like this. This is it, it's immature water, let's face it. The water it controlled by the Sun, it's been evaporated up off the ocean or the land, it's hit the clouds, it's rained, it's dropped on the top of the roof of your tank.
It's immature water, what we call mature water is rain water at the end of its cycle. So basically mature water, the water would be allowed to land onto the ground at an acidic pH at about maybe 5.5 acidic pH.
It washes the country, the water soaks in. It will soak in many kilometers,. As it's going to through the surface, through the land, through the earth, pick it up minerals. Water molecules remember everything they ever come in contact with in their existence. As the water soaks down through the land, it's pick it up mineral.
Once it gets down into the land, it'll get picked up by a stream. It'll come up, it'll coming out of a spring. That's what we should be consuming. Beautiful spring water, clean healthy and full of minerals, perfect and with a good pH level. Having back here, we have trapped the water prematurely.
It hasn't gone through the earth. It's not prepared for us to drink yet. But it is okay, the governmenthaven't got the hands on it. It's not full of chlorine, it's not being contaminated, it's not going to hold heap of contamination from urban living the city corporations etc.
So we trap it on the roof, through the pipes and into this tank. But what are we got in here, we got rain water that 5.5 pH. Too acidic for people to drink all the time. There's 2 issues with rainwater. Number 1, it's acidic, it's going to be 5, 6.5 pH at the absolute best. If you store your water in a concrete tank, the line will leech out of the walls of the concrete tank.
It will elevate the pH of the water. You do a pH test, it's probably gonna be 7, it'll be getting back to neutral. The lime, leeching out of the concrete will make the water neutral. That's what we want to be consuming as human beings 7 pH, so it looks after us. While we also want for the water to flow through the home through the copper pipe we want the water to be 7 as well.
If you're in your home, if you just bought property and you're seeing staining on your basin, green, blue staining on the basin. That means acidic water is going through a city copper pipe and it's eating the soluble copper away and that's what you're getting on your basin that's the green color.
But it all comes back to the acidic water, so if your rainwater is held in a concrete tanks, you pass this test you're good to go. If it's held in an aqua plate which is steel outside, plastic inside, if it's in fiber glass, poly, big steel liner tanks, none of these have got anything to alter the state of the water or add a mineral to elevate the pH, the water will remain acidic.
So what we're going to do is take the water out of here, we've got to add some mineral into it. If it's for the whole house, we have big housings, we have triple water filters. We're adding mineral into the water before it goes into the home. If you're gonna have it just for the kitchen sink, we can just deal with a small water filter as well.
Atleast you'll be drinking and consuming alkaline water. Continuous use of this drinking acidic rainwater, if you just imagine you're tipping in 5 -6 5.5 pH water. The water goes through your body, can take three weeks consuming the water to go through your body. That water wants to get back to a pH of 7, which is neutral for water.
So it's stripping the neutral, stripping the mineral, so it's stripping the minerals out of your body trying to get back to pH 7. So what you're doing is going to the toilet and you're actually flushing your body.
