Are the IonQuench and Genesis Platinum Water Ionizers Really the Same?
Posted by Alkaline Water Plus on 28th May 2010
Neither of these water ionizers are sold any more in the US.
Comparison Testing of the Genesis Platinum and IonQuench Water Ionizers
I wanted to test the IonQuench water ionizer against the Genesis Platinum water ionizer, because even though both water ionizers are made by the same manufacturer [EOS in Korea] and they are both the newest upgrade of the KYK water ionizer I wasn’t sure if they would test out the same. There was some talk about the Genesis Platinum having more watts, and that could make a difference, so I wanted to see if it did. The bottom line is that actually the IonQuench did better than the Genesis Platinum in this series of tests. The IonQuench also has a 7-year warranty [verses the Genesis Platinum water ionizer’s 5-year warranty], so I am pretty confident that the IonQuench water ionizer is the better choice between the two.
Below, I have included videos and charts for every level of water ionizer testing.

Water Ionizer Comparison Testing Results
Water Ionizer à |

Level 1… pH/ORP |

Level 2… pH/ORP |

Level 3… pH/ORP Level 3 Acid |

Level 4… pH/ORP Level 4 Acid |
10.9/-409

10.9/-354 2.5 acid |
All-in-all I’m pretty surprised that the IonQuench did better than the Genesis Platinum water ionizer. After hearing claims that the Platinum was better I was expecting to see far better results with the Platinum water ionizer.
Programming the IonQuench and Genesis Platinum Water Ionizers
Before the testing, above, I programmed both water ionizers to be at exactly the same levels. For anyone wishing to do their own programming of their IonQuench or Genesis Platinum, you should read the directions that come with your water ionizer. However the instructions are too brief and at times unclear, so watching this following video may help to clarify some of the more confusing points in the programming instructions.
