Under Counter Water Ionizers

Many people like their counters clear and that's when you should consider an under counter ionizer. Here are the top picks and we based this on how well engineered the systems were with specific emphasis on the faucet and how it functioned. One word of caution - we suggest you stay away from any system that uses a plastic faucet - they look normal in the pictures but they are not well engineered and the "chrome" look plastic will eventually peel.
Here are the other quality characteristics we looked for:

  • filtration system
  • power
  • warranty
  • number of plates
  • plate size
  • efficiency
  • optional features

ALKA PRIME S9-UC

Quick Overview: This under counter ionizer appears to be a sold South Korean nine (9) plate ionizer with better pH and negative ORP levels. The dual internal filters with a customized pre-filter was a positive. We liked the fact it had several color choices and that it had an SMPS system with 229 watts of power. The limited lifetime parts and ten (10) years labor warranty is above average for 9 plate machines. Another positive fact is that the faucet is actual stainless steel, rather than the chrome plastic faucets. This company has priced their systems about $300 less than some of the other companies and we would think this is to gain market share.

Chanson VS-70

Quick Overview: We reviewed this unit so you are aware that there are ionizers out there that look good but aren't built to optimize your water.

  • This unit has only 150 watts
  • Medium size plates.
  • The "lifetime" warranty is really a five (5) warranty on labor with a lifetime on parts. Their labor rates are high so ask for a written quote before repairs.
  • Made in Taiwan/China so these are not WQA Certified to be "lead-free".
