What is the highest PH value that this machine will produce?
2011885
I've measured it as high as a ph of 10, but it depends on the state of the incoming water and how filtered it is before it hits the machine as well as the internal filter.

I have one and it depends on the filter. I have tested the ph on different levels of flow in the water spout and always had a 9.5 ph except when the filter is on the end of life cycle. I have a city water supply. then it came down to 7.5 or 8.0

it depends on the water that you have at your tap if i turn the water flow down slow i can get a ph of 9

The answer should be noted in the specifics of the product description. Mine is 4500 and it worked fine. One thing that is pertinent to remember is to clean the electrolytic cell every couple of months. That seems to be the biggest thing overlooked. It's easy to do and only takes a few minutes work and setting about an hour. You clean it with any kind of ordinary vinegar. Hope this helps

Depends on how much iron is in your water. I use a tds meter, and my well water has 380 ppm tds. After Ro/Di highest I've seen is .001 tds with this unit. Hope that helps a little. I would check tds in your water before making a decision.

Your need keep checking the ph level, once a month. I suggest you go to Salaxx web site I check what they recomend, you can find some information in youtube too.

pH of a solution increases with temperature, but only slightly. For accurate reading, temp.compensation unit is better i.e more reliable. But, for most household work, this change is not significant.

FROM HM DIGITAL: The accuracy of the PH-80 is + / - 2%. It is factory calibrated to pH 7.0. The meter can be easily re-calibrated with digital calibration to pH 4.0, 7.0 or 10.0. All pH meters should be calibrated anywhere from before every use to at least once a month. The frequency of calibration depends on usage and application, but you should calibrate at least once per month for proper results and a longer lifespan of your meter. A free packet of pH 7.0 buffer is included with the meter. Additional pH buffers for calibration are available for purchase.

I've been using it to ozonate water to drink and I've also used it for purifying various rooms in my home. I'm very happy with this product. I'm not sure if it does something to PH or not, I haven't checked.

The bottle says that the color code is light bluish for 8.5 and higer, so you probably wont be able to accuratly tell what the ph is if it higher. If your just testing regular things like your gardens water you will almost never get any reading that are higher than 8 or lower than 4 (or atleast i would hope so). Hope it helps a little!

I contacted the company via phone. The customer service agent took that question to their supplier and within 24 hours I had an answer that the machine only goes to 12PSI. Which was not enough for me. Were it not for that I ABSOLUTELY would have purchased this machine. I loved the stainless steal liner plus the great customer service I received with something I had not even purchased. I ended up getting the Big Boss 8.5 qt because it does go to 15PSI. As far as I know it is the only one on the market that goes that high. Not a perfect machine, but does the job.

Not sure. My plants are beautiful 4 to 8 foot indoors in a standard 11x12 bedroom and I use it every day. I am on community well water with a PH of 8 and bring it between 5 to 6 depending on the strain. I use 10 and 15 gallon smart pots with promix, organic fertilizers at less than 1/2 manufactures recommended level. Good air movement and the most important ingredient "light" and never forget love. This has worked well for me but every location is different from the water to the temperature and humidity everything can make a difference. I use to use for Hydro, had outstanding results but have given hydro up in old age. Not sure. My plants are beautiful 4 to 8 foot indoors in a standard 11x12 bedroom and I use it every day.

Ph solution 10.01-7.01-4.01 depending on What ur doing most ppl just get the one I use 4.01-7.01 n calibrate once a month or so and I store in storage solution to keep em on da ball

Most pens calibrate at 7.0, check your pH meter's instructions for further calibration information

there are only three modes of operation and no adjustments to be made. Don't worry about the manual, and the pH meter probably will not work well, if at all.

For cloning I don't even test ph. Water comes straight from the hose ( inside water is softened) . No chemicals just water, works great.

I have well water that is about 7-9, seems like ph stays about the same, it might drop a point. This machine is awesome man it takes my 485 ppm water down to about 12

Don, You are looking for a Ph slightly higher than y. The Mavea filters are compressed carbon. The filter out particulates and some disolved gases such as chlorine. I read a book years ago with regard to the physiology of the human body. Among the issues was the alkalinity of the body. It was suggested that cancer cells could not masticize in an alkaline invironment. I believe that an M.D. (Dr. Don Colbert) wrote a book with regard to the benefits of higher Ph water. Well done, I wish you Mozzle-en-gesind! James (Yaacov) Kraemer

Any. All ph meter should be calibrated once a while with a solution like this. You will find helpful to use the one suits best for your measures. Lets say you have to measure ph levels arround 5. So you get the 5 calibratiom solution. Or you need to measure arround 11, then you get the 11 calibration solution. Or like me, for marine aquarium, that o need to be as acurate around 8, then I use this product. Some meters will require two calibration Solutions, check that too.
