ionizer installation & setup

Option 1. Faucet Installation

Option 2. Under the Sink Installation

How to setup after installation

The water ionizer installation can be done in either one of two ways: connected to the faucet or connected directly to the cold water tap under the sink.


1. First way to install is by connecting the adapter directly to the faucet. (Adapter is included) This method does only works with standard faucet spouts and not with shower type faucets. 

2. Second way to install is by connecting it under the sink to the cold water valve. (Adapter is included)


The under-sink adapter included in the box is standard size. Sometimes, depending on the house, the under-sink water valve is 3/8” rather than the standard size. In this case, you must purchase and install an additional 3/8 adapter from a hardware store.


Please refer to the video above for detailed installation instructions.

**After completing installation, drain the water for about 3 minutes with the water setting on “purified” before use. Black water may come out for a while which is normal due to the activated carbon content in the filter. You can consume after allowing water to flow through the machine for about 3 minutes.



The Ivyel alkaline water ionizer creates 4 alkaline levels. Level 1 (pH 8.5), Level 2 (pH 9.0) , Level 3 (pH 9.5), and Level 4 (pH 10).

Depending on the mineral content of the water source (tap water) coming into your home, you may need to adjust the pH at each stage.


First, use the pH test solution in the box to test whether the pH is accurate for each level. Let the alkaline water come out for about 15-20 seconds for each level and after collecting about 10mL in the enclosed plastic test cup, add about 3 drops of the test solution and stir well. Repeat for every level. The setting has been correctly set if level 1 is green, level 2 dark green/blue, level 3 dark blue/light purple, and level 4 purple.


Commercially available paper-based test methods can be erroneous, so use the included test solution or use an electronic pH tester to verify accuracy. If the color is not as listed above, (for example, steps 1-4 are all green), you must adjust the setting of the machine to match the quality of your water source.

Please refer to the video below for detailed instruction on changing the setting.




How to check & adjust the pH level 

How to use the machine

1. After selecting the desired alkaline level (1-4), press the on/off button to dispense water. Press the on/off button once more to stop the water.

2. The selected water comes out of the upper water spout, while acidic ionized water comes out of the lower gray hose at the same time.

3. Acidic ionized water is good for the skin and can be used by collecting it in a basin or bucket.

Even if you leave it for 2-3 days, the effect is maintained, so do not throw it away and use it.

-It has an astringent effect when you wash your face and is good for acne and atopic skin.

-If you gargle with acidic ionized water after brushing your teeth, it sterilizes your mouth and is effective against gum inflammation.

-Spraying acidic ionized water at the end after washing your hair is good for dandruff and other hair problems.

-If you spray it on pets such as dogs with skin problems, it has a good effect,

and if you give it a bath with it, its hair becomes shiny and combs well when brushing.

4. Normally, when alkaline water comes out, you can use acidic ionized water coming out of the gray hose below. If you do not have collected acidic ionized water or need to use acidic ionized water in a hurry, you can press the on/off button after selecting level 1 or 2 of acidic ionized water. At this time, acidic ionized water comes out through the upper hose and alkaline water comes out through the lower gray hose (do not use the alkaline water coming out of the lower hose as drinking water).

How to use alkaline water


After selecting the desired alkaline level, press the on/off button to dispense water. Press the on/off button once more to stop the water. The selected water comes out of the upper water spout, while acidic ionized water comes out from the lower gray hose at the same time.


We highly recommend you to progressively drink alkaline water in the following steps: 


Day 1~2: Drink alkaline level 1. We recommend children 1~10 years of age to stay at this level.

Day 3~4: Drink alkaline level 2. We recommend for healthy adults to stay at this level. 

Day 5~7: Drink alkaline level 3. If you have acid reflux, diabetes, high blood pressure, constipation, or any other health issue, we recommend drinking alkaline level 4. But you must drink alkaline level step by step as recommended until you get to alkaline level 4. 

Day 8~: Drink alkaline level 4. Once you reach this level, you may continuously drink alkaline level 4. 


If alkaline water is not taken in accordance to the instructions mentioned above, you may feel headaches, dizziness, skin rashes, heart palpitation, abdominal inflation, diarrhea, etc. 


When taking prescription medications: Make sure to take them with purified water, not alkaline water. However it is okay to take vitamins and other health supplements with alkaline water. 

How to use acidic water

** Do not drink acidic water **

Acidic ionized water is good for the skin and can be used by collecting it in a basin or bucket. Even if you leave it for 2-3 days, the effect is maintained, so do not throw it away and use it. It has an astringent effect when you wash your face and is good for acne and atopic skin. 


-If you gargle with acidic ionized water after brushing your teeth, it sterilizes your mouth and is effective against gum inflammation. 

-Spraying acidic ionized water at the end after washing your hair is good for dandruff and other hair problems. 

-If you spray it on pets such as dogs with skin problems, it has a good effect. And if you give your pet a bath with it, its hair becomes shiny and combs well when brushing.


When alkaline water comes out from the top spout, you can collect and use the acidic ionized water coming out of the gray hose below. You can also use it by choosing acidic water level 1 or 2. If you choose to press acidic water, it will come out through the top spout and alkaline water will come out through the lower gray hose (do not use the alkaline water coming out of the lower hose as drinking water).
