Aquaplus - What is Acidic Water

 Acidic water has a pH of below 7. Acidic water is used externally, for hair and skin rather than consumed. Strong acidic water can be used to sanitize kitchen counters, cutting boards, and other surfaces. Acidic water (often referred to as electrolyzed water) is water with a potential hydrogen (pH) of less than 7. pH refers to the amount of hydrogen mixed in with the water. pH is measured on a scale from 0 to 14; 7 represents “neutral,” where the water is neither alkaline nor acidic; 0 through 7 indicates acidity; and 7 through 14 indicates alkalinity.

Signs of acidic water include:
 Blue stains on copper fixtures or pipes
 Blue or green stains in tubs or basins
 pH test showing less than 7 is considered acidic
 A sharp or chlorine smell at the tap
 Private water sources that have a pH level of less than 5.5 may corrode plumbing and appliances. The EPA mandates the pH of tap water to be a pH of at least 6.5 to prevent corrosion. Like the Richter scale for measuring earthquake intensity, the pH scale is logarithmic. A solution with a pH of 8.0 is ten times more alkaline than a solution with a pH of 7.0. A solution with a pH of 9.0 is 100 times more alkaline than a solution with a pH of 7.0.
