Overview (Product Information)

Ionizer Information

Solar Ionizer Overview:

• Function: Disintegrates matter at the atomic level, used for water purification.
• Historical Practice: Ionization used for thousands of years, especially with copper and silver containers.
• Technology: Utilizes a small electrical charge to energize electrodes, enhancing the ionization process.

Working Mechanism:

• Electrodes: Composed of copper/silver or silver/copper/zinc.
• Efficiency: Superior efficacy with chlorine at 0.2 to 0.4 PPM versus chlorine alone.
• Durability of Ions: Ions remain in the water for extended periods, don't evaporate under extreme conditions.

Safety and Compliance:

• Mineral Safety: Safe and essential for human consumption.
• Fish Pools: Safe for use, effectively maintains pool hygiene in fish-inhabited waters.

Longevity and Maintenance:

• Lifespan: Engineered for durability to match the swimming pool's lifetime.
• Electrodes: Consumable, replaceable as needed over time.

Usage Guidelines:

• Continuous Operation: Unneeded and not recommended to minimize electrode wear.
• Initial Activation: Daily deployment is necessary to reach the necessary ion levels.
• Routine Maintenance: Several days each week are adequate after the initial period.
• Adverse Conditions: Use more frequently in larger pools or during harsh weather.
• Safety During Use: It is completely safe to swim while the ionizer operates in the water.

Pool Cover and Solar Ionizer Functionality:

• The solar ionizer requires direct sunlight to function correctly.
• If your pool is covered, ensure the unit can access sunlight by tethering it to a spot where the cover is lifted or cutting a small hole in the cover for the unit.

Addressing Green Pool Water:

• Heavy rain or overcast days can imbalance water due to lack of sunlight for ionization.
• To correct the issue, administer a pool shock treatment, operate the filter for an extended period, and let the water regain its balance.
• Avoid excessive chemicals as they may worsen the situation.

Correct Number of Units for Pool Size:

• It is important to have the appropriate number of ionizer units based on the pool's volume.
• A single unit is suitable for pools up to 22,000 gallons; pools exceeding this size will need more units for effective performance.

Managing High pH Levels:

• The recommended pH range for the Chlorine-Free Sun Shock is now 7.2-7.8.
• The device operates efficiently even at higher pH levels; avoid unnecessary pH adjustments if within this range.
• Focus on maintaining adequate ion levels and minimize chlorine use to keep water clear.
• Allow the water to naturally find its balance without forcing conditions.

Copper Test Strips Information:

Overview of Copper Test Strips:

• Copper test strips are optional and not essential for monitoring.
• High copper levels are not considered hazardous.

Accuracy of Copper Test Strips:

• Test strip readings may be inaccurate due to the presence of other minerals or chemicals in the water.
• Natural minerals in the local water supply can affect readings—this is a normal occurrence.

Interpreting Copper Test Strip Readings:

• Difficulty in obtaining accurate readings from copper test strips is common.
• If readings are low or zero, it might be due to interference from other substances in the water.
• Reducing chlorine levels is advised if the pool remains clear despite these readings.

Action Steps for Clear Pool Water with No Copper Reading:

• The sensitivity of copper test strips may lead to incorrect readings for various reasons, including remnants of previous chemicals or local water treatment substances.
• Zero copper readings with clear pool water suggest the Solar Pool Ionizer is successfully maintaining pool cleanliness.
• Clear water is a sign that the ionizer is functioning properly, and there's no need for concern over the absence of copper readings.

Assembly & Operation

Assembly Instruction

Electrode Assembly:

• Fit the silicone gasket and copper rods to the base of the solar panel. Secure the copper rods firmly.

Spring Placement:

• Place the compression spring over the copper rods.

Filter Cover Installation:

• Position the filter cover over the compression spring.

Filter Cover Securing:

• Tighten the filter pressure ring to fix the filter cover in place.

Flotation Verification:

• Make sure the flotation device is correctly attached.

Safety Inspection:

• Double-check that all components are firmly in place.

Operation Instruction

Check Pool Conditions:

• Ensure the pool is ready for the ionizer.

Deploy Ionizer:

• Place the solar ionizer into the pool.

Verify Position:

• Make sure the ionizer is floating properly.

Activate Pool Cleaning:

• After 12 hours, start the pool's cleaning system.
• After 24 hours, check that the ionizer is functioning as expected.

Maintenance:

• Electrode Care: Clean the electrode every 15 days with the supplied cleaning brush.
• Copper Monitoring: Weekly check of copper levels is recommended.
• Ionizer Adjustment:
  • If copper levels rise above 0.9 PPM, remove the ionizer to maintain water clarity.
  • Reinsert the ionizer when copper levels fall below 0.4 PPM.
