Why do water ionizers need platinum coating the electrodes?

• Platinum [along with titanium] is a very hard & dense metal and will not break down and leach into your water… even over time. So the electrodes will virtually last forever, and • Platinum catalyzes [speeds up] the electrolysis process allowing water to ionize instantly as the water passes through the electrolysis chamber. A water ionizer wouldn’t ionize water well at all without platinum. Q: How could you be sure your water supply is not too hard or just the opposite does not have enough minerals …and what can you do about it? A: You can call your local water company [see your water bill] and ask them to send you a report, and from there we can analyze your water. • If you live in an area where your water is extremely soft [below 100 TDS (total dissolved solids)] or you need to use reverse osmosis on your water (due to contamination or just for the best filtration) you’ll need a remineralizer, which is a prefilter that adds enough minerals into your water to ionize it properly [

The reason for using platinum is: Platinum [along with titanium] is a very hard & dense metal and will not break down and leach into your water… even over time. So the electrodes will virtually last forever, and Platinum catalyzes [speeds up] the electrolysis process allowing water to ionize instantly as the water passes through the electrolysis chamber.
