How do I get alkaline water at my house?

You’ve probably seen alkaline water at the grocery store—premium labels, fancy pH numbers, and a price tag to match. But what if you could get the same benefits (or better) straight from your tap?

Good news: You can. And it’s more affordable—and sustainable—than constantly buying bottles.

🧪 what is alkaline water, really?

Alkaline water is simply water with a higher pH than regular tap water—usually between 8 and 9.5. It's often praised for its ability to neutralize acidity in the body, improve hydration, and support overall wellness.

Houston tap water, depending on the source, usually falls around neutral (pH 7) or lower. But chlorine, city treatments, and pipe contaminants can mess with both your water’s taste and its balance.

That’s where water filtration and alkaline filters come in.

⚠️ don’t fall for the bottled water hype

Buying bottled alkaline water can cost $5-$10 per gallon… and most of it still contains microplastics, isn’t regulated, and varies wildly in quality.

Making your own alkaline water at home means:

  • Consistent pH levels you can measure and trust

  • Cleaner water with no added chemicals or contaminants

  • Way less waste (and way more convenience)

  • More money in your pocket
