Clean water is one of the most important needs, including for daily drinking, because 70-80% of the human body is water. There are many benefits of consuming adequate drinking water for health. Consuming clean and healthy water is one of the keys to getting a healthy body, because water also plays a role in oxygen transportation throughout the body. To produce clean and healthy water, technological innovations are needed, one of which is to use a nano filter-based device which can reduce solutes, colour, hardness and high metal ions by up to 70%. The purpose of this research is to produce drinking water that is healthy and can be useful in health therapy with nano material-based filters. The resulting water product is drinking water with a pH of 8+. This nano material-based tool has been tested using 3 water samples, namely well water, PDAM water and river water. The results showed that well water with a pH of 8.71, TDS (total dissolved solid) 282 and a test of 4 heavy metals (Pb, Cu, Zn and Cr) were below the threshold and the results after filtering were the most ideal among other water samples and recommended for consumption that can afford for health therapy. © 2023 American Institute of Physics Inc..
