2. A Natural Mineral Water As we know, hard water has a high mineral content. The minerals are mostly metal ions such as calcium and magnesium in the form of carbonates. CaCO3 and MgCO3 Carbon dioxide IMPROVES the Texture of Water As everybody knows there is a difference between Hard, SP3 and Soft water Hard water contains Calcium and Magnesium and has a ‘hard’ feel when washing when compared to Soft water. People who have a water softener quite often claim they cannot get rid of soap from their body when washing! This is because they are continuing to use the same amount of soap etc. WATCH GmbH A Water Company SP3, Part II

3. Carbon Dioxide and Water Texture In reality, they can reduce their soap use by up to 50% and still get the same effect as washing in hard water#. However, customer feedback has also shown that SP3 water can save you money on soap use when compared to hard water. This is particularly important for people who want to enjoy some benefits of soft water, but do not want water that is totally softened. Improved Water Texture with SP3: SP3 water is enriched with CO2. The CO2 bubbles reduces surface tension to improve the texture and feel of the water and inturn makes the water have a better feel to it when washing. # Battelle Study WATCH GmbH A Water Company SP3, Part II

4. SP3 Water for Drinking A Natural Mineral Water • Minerality • Still • Effervescent Balance Levels of Carbonation • CaCO3 • H2O • Carbonated CO2 Minerality of water is determined by the minerals it contains. Calcium and Magnesium Carbonate (MgCO3 and CaCO3) are the key minerals. They give texture but do not suppress other minerals such as potassium, sodium, sulfate, silica, bicarbonates and trace elements. Lead and copper are removed by SP3 media in all contents and concentrations. WATCH GmbH A Water Company SP3, Part II

5. SP3 Water for Drinking Continued from Slide 4 A Natural Mineral Water • Gases, colloids or sediments are not included in the minerals measurement. Minerals are the second most important factor in healthy food. A high mineral water falls in the category of Classic Water. Classic Water is a main workhorse when pairing food and water. Classic Water is also perfect for coffee, tea and mixed drinks. If you have low minerals then SP3 water is a good choice for all drinks and beverages. WATCH GmbH A Water Company SP3, Part II

6. CaCO3 Hardness with SP3 Water Calcium and Magnesium levels combine to give TOTALHARDNESS. A guide to water hardness levels Over 60% of the UK water has hard/very hard water! WATCH GmbH A Water Company SP3, Part II

7. SP3 Water is Structured Water • Structured Water = H2O 100% natural Hard tap waters contain two types of hardness, Temporary and Permanent. Together they make Total Hardness. Hardness – Ca(HCO3)2 water creates scale in pipes, hot water appliances, dishwashers, washing machines, showers, taps etc. It also makes cleaning more difficult and more dependent on soaps and synthetic detergents. In industry, scale builds up in boilers, heat exchangers and coffee machines etc., to name but a few applications. When hard water passes through the SP3 unit, the bracket of Ca(HCO3)2 is opened and changes its TEXTUREto Non Soluble = CaCO3 Calcium & Magnesium minerals Pure Water = 100% natural H2O and Natural = Carbonated with CO2 WATCH GmbH A Water Company SP3, Part II

8. The importance of pH in water pH of the water is a most important factor in all drinking water applications. The pH (potential Hydrogen) measures the level of acidity or alkalinity. On the pH scale 1.0 to 6.8 is classified as acidic and is generally not recommended for vending type applications. pH between 6.9 and 7.2 is nearly neutral and 7.3 to 14 is alkaline (or basic). All natural waters or low alkaline waters (pH 7.2 to 7.5) are best for human consumption. This level is generally accepted as ‘neutral’ to the human tongue with regard to taste thresholds. Since pH is a Logarithmic scale, the difference of 1 degree indicates a tenfold increase or decrease in acidity or alkalinity. Water from weak acid cations with a pH of 5 for example is 10 times more acidic than that with a pH of 6. WATCH GmbH A Water Company SP3, Part II

9. Structured Water Definition of Structured; Nothing added or subtracted and 100% natural Ca(HCO3)2→ CaCO3 + H2O + CO2 . This in turn means the H2O water molecule has its outer electron shell intact, i.e. in equilibrium and without a change. This is a structured water, a water without the change in pH, without adding an impurity, a water that can penetrate the body’s cells much more easily and therefore cleanse and re-hydrate your body’s cells. It is this cleansing of your cells that contributes to a healthier life. WATCH GmbH A Water Company SP3, Part II

10. TDS as a function of cell hydration property The lower the TDS (Minerals) the greater the cell hydrating properties of the water. All healthy cells are surrounded by structured water. All mineral waters with their unique mineral composition are reputed to have healthful properties. WATCH GmbH A Water Company SP3, Part II

11. Effect of minerals on your health • Compared to as an example a glass of wine, the differences in taste between waters are quite subtle. But they are nevertheless discernible. Local geological strata impart water with different minerals, giving each and every single source of drinking water a unique set of minerals and taste Herewith, we describe the most healthiest minerals found in SP3 water and the benefits these minerals can provide.

12. Magnesium and the Human Body • Magnesium (Mg++) • Almost all human cells have some level of magnesium in them and all adults need four hundred milligrams (400 mg) of Mg++ everyday. Magnesium is very important for the regulation of muscle contractions and the transmission of nerve impulses and it activates energy producing enzymes. Human beings complete bone structure relies on Mg++ and it helps to expand blood vessels, which reduces the risk of heart attack. Some illnesses are related to magnesium deficiency. Nervousness, lack of concentration, dizziness and headaches or migraines are a contribution of high sodium and lack of magnesium in water . Magnesium is an accepted and important flavour carrier and enhances the flavours available in your cuppa! WATCH GmbH A Water Company SP3, Part II

13. Calcium (Ca++) only SP3 can do • It is recommended that every adult needs about 800 mg of Ca++ per day – babies don’t require more than 300 mg/day but all youngsters between fifteen and nineteen year olds need significantly more. • The many benefits include stabilizing bone structure, teeth and cell membranes, ensuring nerve and muscle impulses are properly transmitted and helping to prevent blood clotting. Calcium also has a balancing effect for some skin allergies. Bone decalcification (osteoporosis) and fractures become more likely if a bodies calcium levels are not maintained. The best water for drinking should have between 200 mg/liter to 400 mg/liter calcium. WATCH GmbH A Water Company SP3, Part II

14. Carbonation Level of Best Drinking Water Effervescent: Effervescent waters are a surprise to many. FILTERSORB SP3 water with the smallest possible bubbles of CO2, straddles an imaginary line between STILLand LIGHT SPARKLING water. Carbonation: 2 mg/litre – 5 mg/litre The taste challenge: Give a person a glass of SP3 enriched water and notice how they enjoy the taste. Recommended serving temperature: 12°C / 54°F You will notice all those people who claim they don’t like sparkling water will enjoy a glass of CO2 enriched water made by SP3.

15. What is Textured water? Natural carbonated water is water that contains CARBON DIOXIDE GAS (CO2). The natural gas in temporary hardness Ca(HCO3)2 when it comes into contact with solid particles of SP3 media creates: This CO2 gas creates bubbles in the water (H2O), leading to an effervescent TEXTURE that improves its feel and appearance when washing. Additionally, this effervescence promotes enjoyable drinking water. This water is known as “Light Sparkling Effervescent Water” or SP3 water. Natural carbonated water has many examples and they have been consumed for centuries by people who believe in its Heath Benefits. SP3 –CO2 enriched water on tap!
