Take a moment to search for “water delivery near me,” and you’ll likely find plenty of options. Some companies offer filtered water, bottled and delivered to your door. Others provide natural spring water. But what’s the real difference? And does it actually matter?
At Alive Water, we believe in the purity and vitality of natural spring water, delivered sustainably in glass jugs. Unlike filtered water, which undergoes extensive processing, our spring water remains untouched—just as nature intended. Let’s explore why that matters.
Water Sources Matter
Not all water is created equal. Natural spring water originates from deep underground aquifers, naturally filtered through layers of rock and soil before surfacing as a pristine water source. This process enhances its purity and infuses it with essential minerals your body needs.
Filtered water, on the other hand, can come from virtually anywhere—including municipal tap water. Many bottled water brands source their supply from the same tap water found in homes and businesses, running it through industrial filtration systems before bottling.
The Impact of Processing
Spring water is minimally processed. It undergoes rigorous purity testing but is otherwise bottled exactly as it emerges from the Earth, retaining its natural mineral content. These minerals—such as calcium, potassium, and magnesium—contribute to hydration, health, and overall well-being.
Filtered water, however, is subjected to multiple purification processes designed to remove impurities. While this extends shelf life and ensures cleanliness, it also strips away beneficial minerals. Some brands attempt to reintroduce minerals after filtration, but the result is not quite the same. Additionally, advanced methods like reverse osmosis, distillation, and ion exchange further alter water’s natural composition.
The Alive Water Difference
Beyond sourcing and processing, Alive Water stands apart through our commitment to sustainability. We exclusively use beautifully crafted Italian glass bottles, eliminating the need for single-use plastics. Our process is simple: we deliver chilled bottles to your door, collect your empties, and triple-wash and refill them—ensuring an endless cycle of reuse.
Plastic bottles, even when recycled, eventually reach their end of life and contribute to landfill waste. Glass, on the other hand, is infinitely reusable, aligning with our vision for a more sustainable future.
Fresh, Pure Spring Water Delivered to You
If you’re still drinking tap water or filtered bottled water, consider making the switch to natural spring water. Untouched, unprocessed, and rich in essential minerals, it’s water the way nature intended.
Alive Water’s sustainable delivery service is available in select cities across five states. If you’re in one of our service areas, we’d love to bring the purity of fresh spring water straight to your door.
