Our PureWTR™AK600 Solar Ionizer can be in the pool while swimming, or it can be taken out. It's completely your preference and will work either way.

The PureWTR™ AK600 Solar Ionizer prevents algae in pools up to 35,000 gallons. If you're not sure about the size of your pool, contact us with the length, width and depth of your pool, at entry point and at the deepest end, and we will give you the approximate gallons of your pool.

Yes. The PureWTR™ AK600 Solar Ionizer works to prevent algae in saltwater pools and traditional chlorine pools.

Yes. It works fine with all vinyl pools.

The copper anode for the PureWTR™AK600 Solar Ionizer lasts approximately 6-12 months, depending on weather and pool's water conditions. You can purchase copper anode replacements for $29.95 by clicking here or the complete replacement system for $49.95 here

We offer a 30-day Money-Back-Guarantee, and a one-year warranty.

The water ionization concept was first developed by NASA and is one of the most effective and least expensive of all disinfecting methods used today. This method is proven to produce safe pool water that is not irritating to bathers.

Copper ionizers for pools are proven to be lethal for algae and other microorganisms. On the contrary, they are safe for human beings. Copper has been recognized as an essential mineral for the human body. Over the years, several tests were performed to analyze the effectiveness of copper ionization for swimming pools and other water bodies. During the tests performed at the University of Arizona, it was concluded that the copper ionization water treatment is 1000 times more effective than traditional treatments. Thus, ionization systems for swimming pools emerged as a natural option to disinfect your pool.

This is a process in which an element acquires or loses electrons. The ionization of copper is the result of the discharge of copper ions.

When the atoms of the copper electrode are ionized, the copper ions will diffuse in the water, and the effects of these ions eliminate the microorganisms of algae. are lethal.

Copper ions penetrate the protective outer membrane of algae and bacterial cells, destroying the balance of enzymes, inhibiting the growth and reproduction of bacteria, and cleaning and disinfecting water.

It depends on many water pool factors and usually takes 1-2 weeks.

It is recommended to clean the electrode once every two weeks using the brush supplied with the kit.

No need to install, just take it out of the box and put it in water.

Yes, because some contaminants (such as sunscreen) still make the water turbid, so a small amount (10% - 20% of regular use) of chlorine is needed to keep the water clean and clear.

Yes, unless the water quality status shows ‘too much copper’, but this possibility is almost non-existent. Use the copper test included.

Definitively you can use it in a pond with fish just do the regular control over the copper level (copper test included). Copper ionization is completely safe for humans and animals. AK600 ionizer is especially great for ponds that receive full sun exposure. Reducing chemical demand, you can remove algae in your water and experience long-term clarity all season long.
