Frequently Asked Questions

Where can I purchase ULTRAPURE Laboratories products?

Our products are available directly from our website www.ultrapurelabs.ie or in Pharmacies & Health Stores Nationwide. If a store does not stock a specific product they can order any of our products within 1-2 working days from their wholesale distributors.

Is Purified Water suitable to drink?

Our purified water is safe to drink but we don’t market it as drinking water because it is highly purified, meaning it has had all the minerals typically found in drinking water such as magnesium and calcium removed. Consuming purified water over the long term may result in a lack of these beneficial minerals that are naturally present in regular drinking water.

What is the difference between distilled water and purified water?

The difference between our distilled water and our purified water is the method of production. Our purified water is produced by filtration, which includes reverse osmosis, and our distilled water is produced by distillation. Distillation is a more traditional method and is far more expensive.

Can ULTRAPURE Laboratories' purified water be used on CPAP machines?

Our purified water is highly purified with 99.99% of all solids, minerals and bacteria removed. It is produced to meet Ph. Eur. specifications. We have many customers who use our purified water with medical devices. When not in use the water should be stored in cool conditions with lid secure and away from direct sunlight.

How long after I open my purified water is it safe to use?

We would recommend that water be stored in cool conditions, away from direct sunlight with the lid closed at all times to minimise air contamination. If refrigerated after opening the water may remain within spec for at least four weeks.

Can I use Hydrogen Peroxide as a mouthwash?
