How should I properly store Hydrogen Water?

Proper storage helps preserve the dissolved hydrogen in your water and ensures you receive the maximum benefits from each serving.


Recommended Storage Containers

Hydrogen water can be safely stored in:

✅ Stainless Steel Bottles

✅ Glass Bottles or Containers

✅ BPA-Free Plastic Bottles

✅ Hydration Packs

These materials are stable, food-safe, and help maintain the quality of your hydrogen water.


Avoid Non-BPA-Free Plastics

Hydrogen water should not be stored in plastic containers that are not BPA-free.

Certain plastics can release chemicals into the water over time, particularly when exposed to heat, sunlight, or prolonged storage.

This process is known as leaching, which occurs when chemicals from the container migrate into the water it contains.

Examples of chemicals that may be found in some plastics include:

  • Bisphenol A (BPA)
  • Styrene
  • Vinyl chloride

For both water quality and safety, always use containers made from BPA-free, food-grade materials.


Why Copper Bottles Are Not Recommended

While copper bottles are popular for traditional water storage, they are not ideal for storing hydrogen water.

Copper Can Reduce Hydrogen Content

Copper can interact with dissolved hydrogen gas, causing hydrogen to dissipate more quickly from the water. As a result, less hydrogen may remain available when you're ready to drink it.

Copper Is Reactive

Over time, copper naturally reacts with oxygen and moisture, forming copper oxides and surface patina. These reactions can affect the stability and purity of stored hydrogen water.

Potential for Metal Leaching

Unlike glass and stainless steel, copper is a reactive metal and may contribute trace amounts of copper to the water over time, potentially affecting taste and overall water quality.


Best Practices for Preserving Hydrogen

To help maintain hydrogen concentration for as long as possible:

✔ Store hydrogen water in a sealed container.

✔ Keep containers out of direct sunlight.

✔ Avoid excessive heat.

✔ Fill containers as full as possible to minimize air space.

✔ Consume hydrogen water as soon as practical after production for maximum hydrogen content.

✔ Use glass, stainless steel, BPA-free plastic, or hydration packs for storage.


Frequently Asked Question

Can I transfer my hydrogen water to another bottle?

Yes. Many customers generate hydrogen water in their Echo Go+™ and then transfer it to a larger glass bottle, stainless steel bottle, hydration pack, or BPA-free container for use throughout the day.

Just be sure the container is clean, food-safe, and properly sealed to help preserve the dissolved hydrogen.
