Water certification for luxury hospitality

Upgrade your water. Elevate the guest experience.

Certify your hotel, resort or luxury villa with premium drinking and shower water.

Premium Water Certified recognises properties equipped with an approved water ioniser, such as the LeveLuk K8. Each certified property receives a personalised badge, visible to guests before they book.

Premium Water Certified

A defined standard for enhanced water quality in hospitality and wellness environments.

Premium Water Certified is an independent certification for hospitality, wellness and residential properties that implement enhanced drinking and shower water systems as part of their guest experience.

It defines clear requirements for installation and review. Properties that meet these requirements can get certified and receive a personalised badge.

This badge can be displayed across booking platforms, property websites and digital channels, providing a clear and recognisable signal of the property's water quality standard.

The technology behind the certification

Built on proven Japanese technology.

Premium Water Certified is built on water systems by Enagic, founded in Japan in 1974. Every system is produced and tested in Enagic's own factory in Japan, and built for many years of daily use.

In Japan, water ionisers are officially recognised as medical devices for home use. No other type of water treatment device holds that status. Enagic is certified to international ISO standards, holds the Gold Seal of the Water Quality Association, and its systems are used in hundreds of thousands of homes, hotels and wellness environments worldwide.

The water from Enagic's water ionisers is known as Kangen Water®. Kangen is Japanese for “return to origin”. The idea behind it is to bring water back to the state it was originally meant to be.

The LeveLuk K8

Enagic's most advanced water ioniser.

More than a water filter. The K8 filters tap water and then ionises it, creating hydrogen-rich water with strong antioxidant properties, directly from the tap. Natural minerals are retained.

For properties that want to extend the experience to the shower, there is the Anespa DX. A mineral shower system that reduces chlorine and adds minerals, for a noticeably softer shower experience.

Certification levels

Defined certification levels based on installed water systems.

Premium Water Certified recognises two certification levels, depending on the approved water systems installed within a property. Every certification starts with drinking water.

Why certification matters

A clear standard builds trust within the guest experience.

Certification influences how a property is perceived, before and during a stay. In hospitality and wellness, trust is built through visible standards that show what has been done.

Guests compare listings in seconds.

A visible Premium Water Certified badge signals quality and care before they even read the description.

Premium Water Certified makes water a visible part of the guest experience, rather than an assumed utility. Guests no longer need to wonder about the tap water or rely on bottled water. They can simply trust what comes from the tap.

For the property, it creates a clear point of distinction. Among properties with comparable design, service and amenities, water becomes something guests notice, remember and mention.

What the badge stands for

An independent standard, verified for every property.

Independent

Premium Water Certified is operated by an Austrian registered association, Verein für Wasserqualität und Qualitätsstandards.

Verified

Every installation is personally reviewed against the standard before a badge is issued.

Checked every year

Certified properties receive a yearly check as part of their membership, so the badge stays current.

One property, one badge

Each badge is issued for one specific property and can be withdrawn if the requirements are no longer met.

Also for spas, retreats, gyms and restaurants

One standard, wherever premium water makes a difference.
