Our commitment doesn’t stop at purification. From timely delivery to exceptional customer service, Alaska's Best Water is more than a beverage – it’s a promise of purity and refreshment straight from Alaska’s heart.
Whether at home or the office, trust us to deliver the purest, freshest experience. Every sip reflects our dedication to quality and care.
1: 75-Micro Sediment Filter
Our purification journey begins with the 75-micro sediment filter, which effectively removes larger particles such as dirt, sand, and debris from the water. This initial step provides a clean base and ensures that subsequent filtration processes work more efficiently and effectively.
2: Heat Treatment
In the next stage, the water is heated to 77 degrees Celsius, which is the ideal temperature for Reverse Osmosis. This thermal treatment increases the efficiency of the reverse osmosis process, helping to remove dissolved contaminants and prepare the water for even more precise filtration.
3: Micron Filtration
Next, the water passes through a series of micron filters. This step removes smaller particles such as silt and fine debris, improving the overall clarity and quality of the water. By capturing these fine impurities, we ensure that the water is as clean as possible before moving on to the next filtration phase.
4: Water Softener
Our water softener utilizes ion-exchange technology to replace calcium and magnesium ions with sodium or potassium ions. This process softens the water, reducing hardness, and resulting in a smoother texture that is more enjoyable to drink, while also protecting appliances from mineral buildup.
5: Active Carbon Filter
The water then passes through an active carbon filter, which excels at absorbing and removing unpleasant tastes, odors, chlorine, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs). This step significantly enhances the water’s taste, ensuring that it is both cleaner and healthier for consumption.
6: 5-Micron Filter
Afterward, the water is passed through a 5-micron filter to remove any remaining small particles, including sediments, pollutants, and impurities. This ensures the highest level of purity, leaving the water crystal clear and free from any contaminants that could affect its taste or safety.
7: Reverse Osmosis
The Reverse Osmosis stage is one of the most critical parts of the process. Water is forced through a semi-permeable membrane, which effectively removes up to 99% of harmful substances like chemicals, bacteria, viruses, and dissolved solids, resulting in water that is extremely pure and safe to drink.
8: Ozone Treatment
The water is then treated with ozone (O₃), a highly effective disinfectant that is 3,000 times faster than chlorine in killing bacteria and viruses. The ozone oxidizes harmful microorganisms, neutralizing them before it naturally reverts to oxygen, leaving no harmful residues behind.
9: Ultraviolet Light
The water is then exposed to ultraviolet (UV) light, a process that ensures the destruction of any remaining bacteria, viruses, or other harmful microorganisms. UV light is a proven method of sterilization, offering an additional layer of safety and purity to the water.
10: Contact Tanks
Finally, the purified water is stored in specially designed ozonated tanks. These tanks maintain optimal ozone levels to ensure that the water remains fresh and free from microbial growth. The water is then ready to be enjoyed, offering the highest quality and purity with every sip.
We’ve Got Answers!
Find everything you need to know about our water and services below.
How does the 75-Micron Sediment Filter work?
The 75-Micron Sediment Filter captures large particles, such as dirt, rust, and sand, ensuring that the water is free from visible debris before it moves into further purification steps.
Why is Reverse Osmosis considered essential for purification?
Reverse Osmosis (RO) is one of the most effective methods of purifying water. It removes a wide range of contaminants, including salts, minerals, and harmful chemicals, ensuring that the water is free from substances that can affect both taste and health.
How does the UV treatment work to disinfect the water?
Ultraviolet (UV) light treatment disrupts the DNA of bacteria, viruses, and other microorganisms, rendering them harmless. This is an additional layer of purification to ensure that no harmful pathogens remain.
How often do you test the water for contaminants?
Our water is tested regularly, both internally and externally, to ensure compliance with strict quality standards. We test for a wide range of potential contaminants to maintain purity and safety.
What happens if contamination is detected during the testing process?
If contamination is detected, we immediately halt the production process and perform additional testing and filtration to rectify the issue. We prioritize quality and safety, ensuring only purified water is bottled.
Why do you use a stainless steel contact tank?
A stainless steel contact tank ensures that the water remains free from contamination after purification. Stainless steel is highly resistant to corrosion and ensures that the water remains in an environment that does not affect its purity.
What is ozone's role in maintaining water purity?
Ozone is a powerful oxidizing agent that rapidly neutralizes bacteria, viruses, and other microorganisms, preventing them from surviving in the water. After the purification process, ozone reverts to oxygen, leaving no trace in the water.
Is your purification process environmentally friendly?
Yes, our purification process is designed to be environmentally responsible. The use of ozone and UV light reduces the need for chemicals, and the reverse osmosis system uses minimal energy while being highly effective.
What types of contaminants does Reverse Osmosis remove?
Reverse Osmosis effectively removes many contaminants, including lead, chlorine, fluoride, pesticides, nitrates, and other dissolved solids. This ensures that the water is as clean and healthy as possible.
How do you ensure the water tastes fresh and clean?
Our use of activated carbon, along with Reverse Osmosis, removes any residual chlorine, minerals, and organic compounds that could affect the taste. The result is fresh, pure, and clean water with a great taste.
How do you monitor water quality during bottling?
During the bottling process, we constantly monitor ozone levels and maintain a clean, sterile environment to ensure that every bottle of water is as pure and fresh as possible. Regular checks and ozone treatment are part of our quality control process.
Can your purification process remove all bacteria and viruses?
Yes, the combination of ozone, UV light, and our multi-stage filtration system is designed to remove or neutralize any bacteria, viruses, or microorganisms present in the water, making it safe for consumption.
Why is the water softened during the purification process?
Water softening removes hard minerals like calcium and magnesium, which can make water taste unpleasant and cause scale buildup in pipes. Softened water is more pleasant to drink and less harsh on appliances.
What happens to the contaminants removed during the purification process?
The contaminants removed during filtration and reverse osmosis are safely discarded through a waste system, ensuring that no harmful substances remain in the purified water. Our processes ensure that all impurities are effectively removed and disposed of.
Is your water tested for pH levels?
Yes, we routinely test the pH levels of our water to ensure it remains within an optimal range for taste and health. Our purification process also helps maintain a balanced pH that is both refreshing and healthy.
