The abstract concept is somewhat feasible but the application here is...
This 'abstract concept'? :-

Some really fine quality bullshit there.
The best part is, if the effect was real it would be so easy to measure. Water wicking height into a porous material. Does it vary when an Aquapol coil-thingy is placed nearby?
Anyone want to bet on whether there is such a demonstration?
Well some of us "believe" in Electromagnetic effects on water.
What, you mean like that magic fairy dust known as NMRI imaging?
Or the quite interesting semi-stable alternate geometry of the H2O molecule, achieved by vibrating the usual form with microwaves?

For instance the HHO stuff I just linked, I consider an interesting and apparently feasible hypothesis. Which is on my list of things to try for myself someday. Since it would be quite easy to experimentally verify.
Incidentally, water in its usual form is a highly polar molecule, with very complex long-range (multiples of the base molecular unit) structuring. Of course there are complicated interactions when water is excited with RF.
Here's a few more water-related surprises:

A new quantum state of water found in carbon nanotubes at room temperature could have important implications for life
http://www.sciencealert.com/physicists-just-discovered-a-second-state-of-liquid-water Second state of liquid water, Science Alert - Physicists in the UK looked at a number of specific properties of water, like thermal conductivity, refractive index, conductivity, surface tension, and the dielectric constant - how well an electric field can spread through a substance - and how they responded to fluctuations in temperature between 0 and 100 degrees Celsius. Once the water hit 40 degrees, things started to shift, and properties were changing all the way up to 60 degrees. Each property had a different 'crossover temperature' somewhere within this threshold, and the researchers suggest that this is because the liquid water had switched into a different phase, a fact that could be linked to why H2O has such unusual properties in general.

What's ridiculous about the Aquapol thing, is not that they claim some field effect on water. It's where they talk about what that 'field' is, and where the energy is supposed to be coming from, that it falls into crazy hand waving crap. They'd have been better off to try making up some guff about 'focusing scalar waves', since at least that has some weird-science ancestry. And maaaaybe just a teensy chance of being on to something.
Edit to add:
No, you can safely effect water with electricity. However, electric fields ATTRACT water, so it would make the problem way worse.
Uh, it depends on the net charge on the water in question. Can repel too. For eg google Millikan oil-drop experiment. (He used oil for low evaporation, but would work with water too.)
Also, a work project I was involved with in the 90s, was developing a large-scale ink jet printer, that used electrostatic deflection of ink (mostly water) droplets. Each nozzle had a fine ink stream jetting out continuously, with a piezo-constriction tube as part of the nozzle. This controlled the breakup of the stream into drops. The stream also had a HV analog drive, and the voltage of the stream at the moment a drop separated, set the voltage on that drop. Then deflection plates (just like in a scope CRT) could steer the individual drops on their path to the surface (cloth, spooling off industrial size rolls at high speed.) Unwanted drops were deflected into a waste gutter.
The whole thing was a stupid idea. Probably just a tax writeoff scheme so far as I could tell. But the parts I did worked fine: HV supply, HV analog piezo driver, and a big AD2100 DSP board stack that handled deflection data queuing to the rows of nozzles.
