The LIFE 8100 features a technologically sophisticated design, and high efficiency. The system uses the advanced SMPS (switch mode) power system instead of a transformer for greater efficiency. As with all the high-end LIFE Ionizers, it offers both flat and true MESH plates as well as an optional UV disinfecting light to kill off bacteria and parasitic cysts. The LIFE 8100 is the under the counter version of the LIFE 7600, it produces very high pH values as well as consistently low negative ORP readings.
A huge plus for this machine is the ease with which it can be detached from under your sink and used as a countertop unit when you travel. You will never need to worry about the quality of the water you are drinking! The LIFE 8100 is list-priced at $2597. Optional MESH plates and UV light technologies are available at slightly higher cost. The LIFE 8100 includes a free custom water evaluation that LIFE’s technicians use to design a custom pre-filter system to purify the specific water in the area the machine is to be used. A custom pre-filter is especially important for removing contaminants and/or calcium build up in hard water areas. LIFE Ionizers is the only company that utilizes the Vitamin C Ceramic Block Filter Technology™ (patent pending) to reduce chlorine, and chloramines (chlorine + ammonia) which are found in most municipal water sources. The Life Ionizers are the only WQA NSF/ANSI certified ionizers in the world. LIFE Ionizers features a lifetime warranty on all parts and five years full coverage on labor for the LIFE 8100.

My husband is handy and installed my life alkaline machine under the sink. I like the controls on the faucet and it looks nice. The water tastes great and my skin is softer now
