Our Story
Alkalife Filters LLC opened up its facility in 2023 in Brea, CA. Although the facility is new, Alkalife and it’s founders are by no means new to the water business. Founders Daniel Suh, Carlos Mondragon and Mark Harpenau have a combined 74 years in the water filteration and manufacturing business.
Daniel SUH
Daniel Suh began in water vending machine manufacturing in early 2004 selling machines all around the globe. Daniel branched out in adding an alkaline option to his machines in 2009. He also began designing and manufacturing alkaline options for many of the water store sacross America. Through his early research and involvement in Alkaline water, Daniel began importing and selling his own line of private label alkaline filters.
Mark Harpenau
Mark Harpenau, owner and founder of Aquatech Water Systems operates a reverse osmosis and alkaline rental business serving both commercial and residential applications since 2004. Mark’s company has been using Daniel Suh’s alkaline filters as a customer for several years. With thousands of satisfied customers using these alkaline filters, Mark saw the opportunity and partnered up with Daniel to start and operate Alkalife Filters LLC. The facility was opened in Brea, CA in early 2023.
Carlos Mondragon
Carlos Mondragon, owner and founder of Metal Fab in Anaheim, CA owns and operates a successful large metal fabrication company. Carlos and Metal Fab have been working hand in hand with Daniel designing and manufacturing water store equipment and water vending machines since the early 2000’s. Carlos’ skills in manufacturing and water filter design completes a perfect team of individuals at Alkalife Filters CO LLC in Brea, CA.
Prior to opening its doors in 2023, the founders of Alkalife Filters have done years of research in the alkaline filter market. We have opened up and analyzed all of the various brands of alkaline filkters on the market. We have separated and weighed the various ingredients and tested through 1000’s of gallons of water to test the effectiveness of the filters. The primary focus was keeping a high PH of 8.5 or above and and ORP(Oxidation Reduction Potential) of -150mv to -30mv over a lifespan of 1200 gallons. Many filters on the market fell short. Alkalife Filters formula truly holds up to the test and proves to be the best antioxidant alkaline ORP mineral filter on the market.
