Why use a clay amphora water filter to purify tap water?

“In the UK 38.5 million plastic bottles are used every day … just over half make it to recycling, while more than 16m are put into landfill, burnt or leak into the environment and oceans each day”1.

Consumers are aware that tap water is free of bacteria and generally significantly lower in microplastics than bottled water2, 3. However, tap water can contain chloride, heavy metals, pesticide and fertiliser residues. Plus many people are put off by its aroma and taste.

Improving tap water has involved plastic water filter jugs with their over-engineered plastic replaceable filters, or expensive high-tech home installations. Is there a better solution?

Tap water can be transformed using low-tech, ancient methods such as practised by the Greeks and Romans using clay amphorae. The World Health Organisation has established that clay vessels provide the best way to reduce chloride levels in water and to keep water bacteria free. For over a decade, Natural Spa Supplies has been manufacturing clay amphorae. Laboratory tests have shown that these amphorae reduce chloride levels, ammonia and heavy metals such as lead, cadmium, arsenic and mercury. There are no replacement cartridges or filters - from time to time, the amphorae just need a scrub on the outside and a sun bath! That's were the soapnuts, citric acid and scrubby come in.

Perfectly proportioned, inside and out, the amphorae have egg-shaped interiors with the point near the base. The geometry allows convection currents to circulate the water in columns, spirals and curves.

In nature, trickles and cascades of stream water spin, spiral and bow, all the while purifying the water. Added to this, the clay wall of the amphora, slightly permeable, acts like ‘skin’, sweating out toxins, leaving the freshest, purest, most delicious tasting water within.

How do you use a clay amphora? Just add tap water and let time do the rest. We will send an instruction sheet with the order. Please read this before using the amphora.

Natural Spa Supplies’ test results are based on an eight-hour cycle: Each amphora can produce three batches of purified water every day. They are available in different sizes depending on your needs. The 2 litre amphora water filter is suited to one or 2 person households and the 5 litre amphora for 2 or 3 person households. We have the larger 7 litre size in our main shop. You will need to provide your own ceramic or glass bowl to stand the amphora in.

The benefits of using a clay amphora water filter to purify tap water

Purity assured

1/ Water conditioned in our amphora overnight (8 hours) is 100% potable i.e. there is no migration of undesirable elements from the body of the amphora into the water. Please don’t just use any old clay pot for conditioning your water – some clays contain fungicides, others leach heavy metals and fluorides or contaminants from the firing process. Establishing that the clay from which our pots are made from is safe formed the foundation of our tests.

Boron ↓ 85.9
Lithium ↑ 11.8
Nitrates ↓ 83%
Magnesium ↑2%
Orthophosphate ↓ 4.5%
Chloride ↓ 50%
Ammonia ↓ 50%
Lead ↓ 78.4%
Arsenic ↓73%
Zinc ↓ 87%
pH ↑ 1 log
coliform ↓ 200% (from 200 colony forming units to zero at 22°C)
Electrolytes ↑ 5.8%
Cooling - depends on ambient temperature and humidity A test when the external temperature was 32°C and where water taken from the amphora was 19°C, a 40% reduction.

Alkalinises water

3/ On average our tap water is pH 7. Water which had been conditioned in the amphora overnight showed an increase in alkalinity to pH 7.8. Scientifically minded customers will know that the pH scale is logarithmic, and so this represents a large increase. Alkaline water is much better for us.

Reduces bacteria

WHO recommends that filtered and chlorinated water is purified in clay pots in Africa to eliminate chloride resistant bacteria, but they leave it in the pot for 2 days. If you think that you have bacteria in your tap water you should boil it and contact your water board. Contamination is surprisingly frequent.

Increases electrolytes in water

5/ The amphora conditioned water is more energetic and carries more electrical charges – the conditioned water saw a rise in conductivity from 698 to 742 uS/cm. The result indicates that the conditioned water is richer in electrolytes. By contrast reverse osmosis and distilled water are carry very low electrical currents and water treated to reduce conductivity is not as healthy for us and not considered fit for drinking.

The main increase of minerals in the amphora conditioned water was in magnesium. Magnesium is important for heart and circulation health and its bioavailability is greater in water than in food.

Cools water, improves Taste, texture and aroma

6/ Amphora purified water tastes clean, refreshing, pure and cool.

Whether you see these amphorae as purely functional or as showy decorative urns, they always look gorgeous and they are suited both modern and historical settings. When the pot is filled to the base of the neck, the water is contained within the egg shaped belly of the pot. The egg shape is the ideal flow form for the circulation of liquids in nature. Within this shape water follows its natural motion, moving in curves and spirals which aids purification.

There is some suggestion too, that following these natural flow forms, clusters of water molecules reduce in size: customers report that the amphora conditioned water feels more liquid in the mouth, more refreshing in the stomach and overall more hydrating.

Enjoy drink fresh tasting, cool, detoxified and energized water.
We invite you to conduct your own ‘blind’ taste/aroma/texture tests with your friends between freshly drawn tap, or tap water purified through other means and the water which you have conditioned in your amphora

Now you can enjoy great tasting water, plastic free forever. Have a drink on us!

Packaging

Each amphora comes in its own box which contains the cork bung, the scrubby and the instructions. The soapnuts and citric acid are wrapped separately. Everything is then placed in a larger outbox packed with shredded cardboard which we make on site. We also use paper based tape with natural glue, so all the packaging is recyclable or compostable.

Gift Wrap Option

If you would like us to gift wrap this living water gift set, we will wrap it in coloured British produced papers with a gift tag and Christmas card. Please be sure to select the Gift Wrap option from the drop down menu which costs an additional £5.00. As you go through the checkout, please use the Comment Box to let us know what to write on the tags and in the card.

Sending gifts directly to your loved ones

We can either send the amphora directly to you for you to present yourself, or we can send the amphora direct to your loved one.  If we are sending directly to the recipient we will need their name, address, and to help the courier their mobile number and email address. Please let us know in the Comment Box on the Checkout Page.

Attractive
Size: 4 Panel-88'', Color: Grey
The assembled product is just as described. The screens look great! I am using them to hide the cluttered shelving in my garage. The area now looks quite neat Something I must say, though, is that the assembly was extremely difficult. I had to use a silicone spray and some pounding to get the A and B poles to fit together. Also, it required a great deal of strength to stretch and hold the fabric panels so that the bars inserted in each hem lines up with the screws inserted in A/B poles. I strongly recommend having a partner to help with the assembly. while sc and screw into poles them once inserted intetchedtne end of each pole ( and B poles barely fit together. I used silicone spray on the end and then pounded them

Does the job, but assembling by yourself is a nightmare
Size: 4 Panel-88'', Color: Black
Does it do the job? Yes, although as others said there are small gaps but it's not a huge deal. The price is also good. But the reason I'm giving it a 3/5 is simply because the assembly for this was a complete nightmare. I honestly don't think I would recommend this to anyone unless they have another person to help them assemble it, because doing it by myself was terrible. I don't think I'd buy this again, I think I'd opt to just spend a bit more money and save myself the trouble personally.

Reasonably adequate room divider
Size: 4 Panel-88'', Color: Beige
I'm reviewing this as I assemble it. Couple things: 1. I didn't expect as much assembly. I've ordered dividers before and they more-or-less came as one unit. Sometimes the panels needed screwing together. These require complete assembly and come largely as three rods: two make up vertical columns and snap together. Another one (called part "C") makes the horizontal columns and you have two of these per panel (one attaches to part "A" and the other part "B"). These parts are metal with a plastic shim. Using the wood screws to attach to part "C" is a real pain in the neck. There's not much holding the panel in place so it's a little tricky. One tactic I've found while I'm assembling that works for the initial connections from parts A and B to their respective "C" rods is to hold the screw in place with a screw driver and then rotating the rod around the screw. This will do a number on your hands if you aren't wearing gloves. This obviously doesn't work when completing the connection. Using a driller driver on this is really near impossible because there isn't anything you can use to secure it in place. You can use it on the first panel, but as it gets longer, it becomes increasingly difficult and because it isn't wood, it's really tight. I considered drilling larger pilot holes but since there are only 4x4=16 screws I need to screw in, I just decided to use my screw driver to complete it. 2. Also related to assembly. When completing the panels (attaching parts "A" and "B" to parts "C" that have the cloth cover on it), you have to be careful that when you tighten that side that it isn't loosening the other side. Because the pilot holes are so tight, you can end up rotating the rod, which rotates it in the same direction as looser on the original side. Having someone hold the "C" rod in place while you screw it in is probably the easiest approach. I didn't have a 2nd person, so I just had to keep flipping back and forth and tightening both sides as I screwed it in. Not the worlds biggest deal, but annoying nonetheless. 3. The way the instructions are written, they seem to suggest building this thing progressively; that is, you do panel 1, then 2, connect them together, then do 3 and connect it, etc. I took a different route that I suspect saved me quite a bit of trouble, and I assembled all four panels first and THEN connected everything together. 4. For the love of God make sure you check that the plastic tip is on the same side for every panel. Otherwise, you have to take one side apart again and reverse it. On the bright side, if this happens, you've essentially bored out the pilot holes to be the correct size... which is having me question if I shouldn't have just bored them out to the appropriate width in the first place. 5. Attaching all of the panels together is also an enormous pain in the ass unless you happen to have an 88" long elevated surface. Attaching the legs either requires you to elevate one side, which will invariably twist the inexplicably cheap material in the bottom connectors... or you can attach them sideways... or you can put this thing upright, having two people hold the panels in place while you use the allen wrench to tighten the bolts on the underside. None of those are particularly great options. NOW on to the utility itself. 1. The panels do let some light through (I didn't believe their advertising, and that was one of the reasons that I bought beige, is that I wanted it to not be too dark). They aren't transparent though, so it isn't that far off from their description. They functionally work great, and keep the mess of wires hidden and when I'm sitting at my desk, actually reflect quite a bit of light into my office. Great! 2. My wife has described these as "the most hideous piece of furniture ever conceived of by man." So it does not have spouse approval factor. Granted, she will seldom be in my office area, so that isn't the end of the world. 3. These are really hard to align in a way that doesn't look a little tacky. There are some plastic connectors but they don't do a bang up job of keeping these in place. Each panel is slightly tilted and it's... quite obvious. I may at some point make my own improvements to these to help make them more level. It's not a particularly expensive product so I wasn't expecting much so it's fine and I'm not going to ding them on the rating because of it. All said, would I buy this product again? Probably not. It's assembly was ~90 minutes which is about 75 minutes longer than I was anticipating spending on this (not including the 5 minute writeup that I'm doing here). But am I going to return it? Also no, if for no other reason I'd be just as annoyed taking it apart and putting it in the original box to return it.
