Questions about water

I can't quite recall the specific company name, but all these filters operate on the exact same principle involving water electrolysis. Honestly, the woman was completely unprepared—or rather, she just threw out so much jargon at me that my head started spinning. She tries to perform this electrolysis test on a sample, and sure enough, the water turns black. Then, she runs the water through their filter, and lo and behold, nothing happens during the electrolysis. Well, of course nothing happens, because she’s essentially producing demineralized water that doesn't conduct electricity anymore. If the water tastes flat and lifeless, it's because it is. And then, as if that wasn't enough, the grand finale was her offering me an add-on to buy a component that "improves" the taste by re-mineralizing the filtered water. It's just a total waste of money, isn't it? At least not until we're forced to drink it. I even asked her if she could try the electrolysis on some Jane's water, but she refused, claiming she wasn't allowed to—though I'm certain the result would have been identical to just using tap water from the sink.
It would be quite amusing if our "little prize winner" used her special "flavor enhancer" to fix the demineralized water first, and then repeated the electrolysis... provided she's actually permitted to do so. The results would be sensational.
