Ionizer

Our P-15 Ionizer is a safe way to keep water clean while reducing the need for spa chemicals.  Utilizes safe copper/silver ionization to kill bacteria and algae.

• Features:
• Weatherproof housing for outdoor installation
• UL listed
• Adjustable mineral ion control
• Substantial reduction in chemical use
• Constant supply of mineral ions
• Reduced maintenance

Price includes the ionizer, test strips, and installation instructions.  This ionizer is compatible with our SmarTouch heating systems.

Every two years, the electrodes should be replaced.

THE TECHNOLOGY

The Natural Mineral Purification System utilizes an advanced electrolytic process which emits small amounts of Copper ions into water systems for the purpose of controlling micro-organisms and algae while avoiding the hazards of high level chemical dosing. This method of water treatment is environmentally safe, user friendly and cost effective.

The system operates automatically in conjunction with the circulation system of the hot tub.  A flow cell houses specially formulated virgin Copper alloy electrodes that deplete at a designated rate into the water that is to be treated.  The disinfecting action is attributable to the positive charged Copper ions which form electrostatic bonds with negatively charged sites on the cell wall of micro organisms. 

It has been field and laboratory proven that when mineral purification is used in conjunction with low levels of free chlorine, typically .2-.4 ppm (local health department regulations may vary); there is a synergistic effect (Applied and Environmental Microbiology, Dec. 1989, p. 3045-3050).  The maximum synergistic effect was Copper in the presence of .3 ppm free available chlorine.  At this dose, 1,000 times more bacteria were killed after 2.5 minutes in the ionized water than the water treated with chlorine alone.
