Review EP1000

Perhaps the most striking thing about GoldFox products is the President of the company. If you've been researching water ionizers you have no doubt come across the name Bob McCauley and his book "The Miraculous Properties of Ionized Water." When an authority on the properties of ionized water chooses a product to put his name on, you have to take a closer look.

Tyent TURBO 9090 Extreme Review

Tyent 9090 TURBO Extreme
Setting the Standard for 9-Plate Water Ionizers

You can tell a lot about a company by the way they respond to customer and dealer feedback. I've watched and tested for myself as Tyent USA has made improvements to their existing line of water ionizers and added new models to address customer needs. Once again, Tyent USA listened and responded to feedback from across the country. The result - the 9090 TURBO Extreme.

Not just a "rush to market" 9-plate water ionizer, Tyent USA did their research and worked closely with engineers to produce a well thought out 9-plate unit.  Paying special attention to the proper balance of plates and power, the Tyent 9090 TURBO Extreme water ionizer introduces several "industry firsts."   Based on testing and research, the Tyent 9090 TURBO Extreme was designed to ensure optimal performance along with premium options that customers expect from water ionizers in this price range.

Industry "Firsts"

Tyent's 9090 TURBO Extreme is the first 9-plate water ionizer with 315 inches of plate surface area - the largest in the industry.  Tyent starts with medical grade titanium plates that go through a dip, bake, dip, bake process to ensure thorough and effective platinum coating. The plates used in all Tyent water ionizers are manufactured in Japan and the "holed" texture is cut into the plates prior to the platinum application so that all plate surface areas are effectively covered.

The Tyent 9090 TURBO Extreme is the first 9-plate water ionizer with an available 375 watts of power.    Just adding more plates or plate surface area does not effectively improve performance. Each plate must receive enough electrical charge to produce quality alkaline or acidic ionized water.

Tyent's 9090 TURBO Extreme is the first water ionizer to offer .001 micron filtration. Not an upgrade, the Tyent 9090 TURBO Extreme comes STANDARD with the .001 micron filtration. As water turbidity increases during rainy seasons and water companies increase the level of additives used to reduce or prevent cloudiness, some water ionizer customers notice a difference in flow rate or changes in the taste of their water. Tyent's Ultra .001 micron filters help reduce these issues so customers can enjoy the same quality of water year-round.

Why 9 Plates? Why 375 Watts?

We've seen water ionizers progress from 3 plates to 5 to 7 - now 9...  is this just a gimmick playing on the common consumer belief that more is better? No. As the water ionizer industry has grown, more and more consumers from different parts of the country are becoming aware of the short and long-term benefits of drinking alkaline ionized water. As water ionizers find their way into different parts of the country, companies have discovered how various source waters in different areas can create challenges for water ionizers. As a result, more powerful water ionizers are designed featuring more plates/plate surface area and/or higher wattage.

Just because a water ionizer has more plates or higher plate surface area does not mean the unit will perform better. Each plate inside a water ionizer "shares" the total available wattage produced by the unit. By simply adding more plates, the wattage is actually "diluted" somewhat and in some cases this can actually decrease the unit's performance. Alternately, increasing the amount of power going to the same number of plates in an existing unit can improve ionization performance, however long-term effectiveness can be compromised as plates designed to accommodate a lower wattage are now carrying a higher load. Over time this can cause premature "aging" or deterioration of the plates.

Tyent USA has worked closely with engineers to develop a "wattage to plate" ratio that will ensure both effective performance and long-term usability. The plates in Tyent's 9090 TURBO Extreme are designed to handle the increased wattage of the unit without premature aging or breaking down of the platinum coating. Extensive research and testing of how the increased wattage impacts the long-term stability of the plates is one of the reasons Tyent USA has the confidence to offer their "Forever Guarantee." A water ionizer is only as good as its warranty and Tyent stands behind the 9090 TURBO Extreme with a LIFETIME WARRANTY covering both parts and labor.

From Tyent USA: If our customers experience any performance issues with our cutting edge water ionizer systems, then we will fix or replace the unit (within a week in most cases). Any damaged unit will be fixed, or replaced with a comparable unit at no cost to you (excluding shipping). The only thing not covered under our warranty is accidental breakage that could be caused by dropping one of our units or damage caused from something of a similar nature. Feel free to use our units in any type of water, and produce as much water as you wish. Our advanced cleaning system, filtration, and power methods are the toughest and most advanced in the industry.

 

Designed to Perform, Designed to be the Best

Tyent water ionizers are proven performers and the TURBO 9090 Extreme was designed to perform above and beyond any other water ionizer on the market today.    With nine large plates and up to 375 watts of power, the 9090TE can produce "extreme" pH and ORP with almost any source water - without the use of chemical enhancers.  My Tyent customers are always impressed with the quality of these products and the water they produce.  Having used and tested MANY water ionizers I have found Tyent products to be the easiest to use and, given the number of customizable preset options, the easiest to adjust.

The slim control panel features touch-sensitive icons.  The "on/off" mechanism for the 9090 is when you select the level of  water you want to produce.  Unlike water ionizers that "default" back to either your last pH selection or a preset "safe" setting, the 9090 Turbo Extreme gives you water at the pH level you want with a SINGLE touch of the display screen - no toggling up or down to get to the setting you want.  True one-touch operation at every level - something that I haven't found with any other water ionizer.

Tyent's standard premium filtration is even better with the 9090's .001 micron filtration.  The combination of activated carbon and KMP ceramics not only cleans the water but conditions the remaining nutrients in the water for better metabolism by the body after ionization.  The filters in your Tyent 9090 are designed to last 6 months based on  producing 20 liters of water per day.  Most Tyent customers find they only need to replace their filters once every 8 to 10 months.  Filter icons in the display panel show you the remaining filter life and the unit's voice alert let's you know when it's time to replace them.

You have the option of voice alerts and announcements at every level or "chimes" to alert you when you are producing water that is not recommended for drinking.  The voice function can be turned off or on without the need to enter the set-up mode and the volume is easily adjusted within the setup mode.  In addition to voice alerts the display panel is also a "color indicator," changing colors based on the level of water being produced.   When your Tyent 9090 senses that it is time to run a cleaning cycle, the display screen will flash red and purple.  The next time you use the unit, go ahead and select the level of water you want - once the cleaning cycle is complete the unit will automatically dispense water at the pH level you selected.  You can also manually run a cleaning cycle with one touch.

The Tyent 9090 TURBO Extreme is available in either white with silver face or black with stainless steel to match almost any kitchen decor.  Its slim design leaves available workspace on your counter in front of the unit.

Summary and Conclusions

The Tyent 9090 TURBO Extreme meets the high expectations of customers who only buy the best of the best.

I have no reservations about recommending any Tyent product and I'm impressed with the time and consideration the company put into their 9090 TURBO Extreme model.   375 watts is a lot of power for a residential water ionizer.  Tyent subjected the 9090 TURBO to Underwriters Laboratories rigorous testing to earn UL certification for electrical safety.  Designed to outperform and outlast any other water ionizer on the market today, the 9090 TURBO Extreme sets the standard for 9-plate water ionizers.

Your investment in the Tyent 9090 TURBO Extreme is backed by the company's Lifetime Warranty on parts and labor, the best in the industry.  In the 2 years I've been working with Tyent on behalf of Water Ionizer Authority customers I've found their technical support department to be responsive, reliable and easy to work with.  The company is dedicated to providing superior products with superior support.  When you make the decision to step up to the plate for Tyent's top of the line TURBO 9090 Extreme you are buying the best from a company committed to offering only the best.
