Technical Overview

Magnesium Prill Beads are a natural water treatment accessory designed to enhance the quality of drinking water in home or office dispensers. By interacting directly with the water, these beads help alter its physical surface tension and overall mineral structure.

They are a passive, low-maintenance addition that can be integrated into almost any existing water cooler setup to consistently support daily hydration.

How Magnesium Prill Beads Alkalize Water

Standard tap water often lacks an optimal mineral balance and can lean toward being slightly acidic. When submerged in a water dispenser, magnesium prill beads naturally lower the surface tension of the water while boosting its pH to approximately 9.4.

This alkalizing process helps neutralize acidity, resulting in a crisper, smoother beverage. They are highly effective when paired with standard bottled water coolers to enhance the baseline quality of the water.

Package Contents & Technical Specifications

Prill beads are distinct from traditional filtration media because they do not physically trap contaminants, but rather alter the water's chemical characteristics.

Materials Included: Each package contains two (2) 85g bags of premium Magnesium Prill Beads, securely enclosed in permeable organza bags.
pH Balancing Capability: Safely and naturally elevates the surrounding water's pH to approximately 9.4.
Longevity: These high-grade prill beads do not dissolve, break down, or wear out over time, providing a permanent water treatment solution.
System Compatibility: Designed to sit submerged in the bottom bowl of standard dispensers. They work effectively alongside traditional water filters without interfering with the primary filtration process.

Initial Setup & Maintenance Guidelines

Preparing the beads for use is a straightforward process. Before placing them into your water cooler's bottom bowl, simply rinse the organza bags thoroughly under clean running tap water to wash away any fine manufacturing dust. Once submerged, allow the beads to sit overnight to reach optimal alkalization before dispensing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do magnesium prill beads ever need to be replaced?

No. The magnesium prill beads themselves do not dissolve or wear out, meaning they provide a permanent alkalizing effect for your water. However, the outer organza bags may naturally degrade over time and can be replaced as needed.

Can I use these beads with an existing filtration system?

Yes. Prill beads can be placed directly into the bottom tank of your current dispenser. They perfectly complement standard water filters by adding an alkaline boost after the primary physical filtration phase is complete.

How do I prepare the beads for their very first use?

Simply hold the organza bags under running tap water for about a minute. This rinses away any harmless, natural dust generated during the manufacturing process, making them completely ready to be submerged in your cooler.
