Valeacell pH Test Drops 10 ml – Test the pH of your drinking water yourself
Just a few drops are enough: the pH value of your water is indicated by a colour change. Ideal for directly comparing tap water and filtered water.
- Colour change from pH 3 to pH 10
- 10 ml for approx. 40 tests
- Results in seconds, no equipment required
Making the pH of drinking water visible
The pH value shows whether water is acidic, neutral or alkaline. With Valeacell pH test drops you can measure it yourself at home – and see how your tap water changes after filtering in the Valeacell filter carafe.
Colour scale
The colour scale comes as a card with every bottle of pH test drops. Measuring range: pH 3 to 10.
Our test: before and after
Example measurement with the pH test drops. Results depend on your source water and the age of the cartridge: if your tap water is more acidic or more alkaline, the value after the carafe shifts accordingly.
How to measure the pH yourself
- 1Fill a glassFill a clear glass with water, e.g. 50 ml.
- 2Add the test drops1 drop per 10 ml of water – so 5 drops for 50 ml. Swirl briefly.
- 3Compare the colourHold the colour card next to the glass, ideally against a light background in daylight.
Tip: test tap water and filtered water side by side – that is where the difference shows most clearly. Do not drink the test drops or the sample; avoid contact with eyes and mouth.
What happens in the carafe?
Water runs from the top through the cartridge into the carafe. The cartridge works in seven stages – the most important at a glance:
- 1Fine meshHolds back coarser particles.
- 2Activated carbonReduces chlorine as well as taste and odour compounds.
- 3Mineral and alkaline ballsRelease minerals such as calcium and magnesium into the water. This raises the pH – the water becomes slightly alkaline.
Filter carafe or water ioniser – what is the difference?
Both deliver water with a higher pH, but they work on different principles.
| Filter carafe | Water ioniser | |
|---|---|---|
| Principle | Filtration and release of minerals | Electrolysis: an electric current separates the water into an alkaline and an acidic portion |
| Power required | No | Yes, permanently connected to the tap |
| pH value | Slightly alkaline, depending on source water | Adjustable in levels |
| Correct term | Filtered, mineralised water | Electrolysed or ionised water |
| Maintenance | Replace the cartridge regularly | Replace filters, clean electrodes |
