Beyond filtered.
Inspired by nature.

Structuring is what happens after filtration. A reverse-osmosis membrane removes contaminants — that's the filtering part. Structuring is the step that comes next: after pH balancing, the water passes through a Swiss-made structuring cylinder. In the tradition we draw on, the aim is an ordered, hexagonal arrangement of the water molecules. It's a physical step, inspired by the way water behaves in nature — we make no health claim from it.

The reverse-osmosis stage removes the overwhelming majority of dissolved contaminants:

• Pharmaceutical residues, including hormones, antidepressants, painkillers, and antibiotics
• PFAS ("forever chemicals"), microplastics, pesticides, and herbicides
• Heavy metals: lead, mercury, arsenic, chromium
• Bacteria, viruses, parasites
• Chlorine, fluoride, nitrates, sulfates

Independent tests of comparable RO membranes show PFAS removal in the 90–99% range. Put simply: public water utilities are only required to test for about 90 substances, while tens of thousands of chemicals are in everyday industrial use. Reverse osmosis works by blocking almost everything larger than a water molecule, so it doesn't depend on a list.

Water comes out of the membrane slightly acidic. An activated carbon filter brings it back to a neutral pH, and the structuring step follows. The acidity is just a side effect of how the membrane works — not a sign that anything is wrong with the water.

It's a fair question. The short answer: people get the overwhelming majority of their minerals from food, not water. A serving of leafy greens contains far more of the minerals your body needs than several gallons of tap water.

To be accurate, water does contribute some minerals — calcium and magnesium from water are reasonably well absorbed, and the World Health Organization notes drinking water can be a useful source of both.

Reverse osmosis does send some water to the drain. Standard home systems commonly discard around two to four liters per liter of purified water, while modern high-efficiency systems come much closer to one-to-one. A few things worth keeping in mind:

The water that goes to drain isn't dirty — it's essentially your tap water carrying the filtered-out substances at a slightly higher concentration, which is why many homeowners reuse it. Bottled water has its own hidden water cost, too: from roughly 1.4 liters per liter for the water itself to several liters once you account for producing the plastic bottle and its supply chain. And a point-of-use system only purifies the small amount your household actually drinks — not your entire supply.

Some of the work we draw on (Schauberger's observations on natural water movement, Emoto's work on water and information, hexagonal water research) sits outside conventional Western chemistry, so we don't claim it as settled science.

What we can say with confidence: the reverse-osmosis stage of the system is straightforward, well-understood, and effective. The structuring step is based on a tradition of work on water that we find compelling. The honest invitation is to try it yourself — Daniel Trappitsch's preferred demonstration is a side-by-side taste test.

The system installs under the kitchen sink, with a connection to the cold water line and to the drain for the wastewater line. A handy homeowner can complete installation in 2–4 hours using basic tools. We provide a detailed video guide and printed manual. A licensed plumber typically completes installation in 1–2 hours.

The Assisted package is built around the second option: we coordinate the install with a qualified local plumber, brief them on the system, and follow up with a quality check. You contract directly with the plumber.

Not much — the under-sink unit is compact, roughly 19 × 15 × 7 inches (about 48 × 38 × 18 cm), with a couple of inches of clearance at the front for the connections. If your cabinet has room for that footprint near the cold-water line and the drain, you're set. Not sure? Send us a photo of your under-sink space and we'll confirm the fit before you order.

The factory warranty covers the system itself — its parts and workmanship — but not problems caused by faulty installation. With the Independent package, you or a plumber you choose handle the install, so the installation is your responsibility. With the Assisted package, we coordinate a vetted local plumber and follow up with a quality-check call; you contract directly with that plumber, and their work is backed by their own workmanship guarantee. Either way, if something goes wrong, reach out — we'll help you figure out whether it's the system or the install, and point you to the right fix.

The recurring costs are filter replacement (annually), a small amount of electricity, and the wastewater that goes to the drain. As a comparison anchor: a typical household drinking 2–3 gallons of bottled water per day spends roughly $800–$1,200 per year. The system pays for itself by that comparison alone, without counting the difference in what's in the water.

Filters are a wear item, replaced about once a year — the exact interval depends on your local water quality and how much you use. They're the main recurring cost of owning the system, and replacing them is straightforward. We'll confirm current U.S. filter pricing when we send your quote. Assisted-package owners can have the change done as part of an annual service visit.

Every system comes with a 2-year factory warranty, with the option to extend. It covers the working parts — the pump, the solenoid valves, and the power supply — against defects. Wear items like the filters and the membrane aren't covered by the warranty, since they're meant to be replaced periodically. The Assisted package includes an extended warranty.

First U.S. deliveries are scheduled for late 2026. We're currently building a list of homeowners who'd like to be the first to receive one. Reach out via the form below and we'll get back with current pricing, availability, and the next step.

Right now we're taking reservations, not payments — so there's nothing to return at this stage, and you're free to step away anytime before your system ships. Once systems begin shipping in late 2026, your order will come with clear return terms, which we'll share in writing before you commit. And if you ever have an issue with a system you've received, contact us — we stand behind what we sell and we'll make it right.
