e-clear vs ionization


How does it sanitize the water?

e-clear
ionization

E-clear produces powerful natural oxidizers through an advanced electrolysis of water (H2O) technology.

The e-clear natural oxidation technology is combined with a trace amount of copper ionization to provide 100% protection against waterborne pathogens.

Saturated levels of Oxygen and a small copper ion residual in the pool ensures there is an effective sanitizing residual in the pool at all times, even when the pumps are not running. This feature enables e-clear pools to operate 100% chlorine free.

Formed via electrolyses and 100% natural copper and silver ions are highly effective algaecides and biocides.

Positively charged copper ions eliminate micro-organisms by binding to the negatively charged bacteria, fungi and algae cell wall and blocking cellular function.

Copper ionization provides a long lasting sanitizing residual in the water.

Ionization requires an additional oxidizing agent to break down organic matter, urine, etc. in the water.

What sanitizing molecules/oxidizers are produced?

e-clear
ionization

Within a sealed chamber, the powerful oxidizers OH-, O1-, H2O2 and O2 are generated via electrolysis from the water (H2O) molecule itself.

Dissolved O2 remains in the water and is combined with copper ions to provide a long-lasting, stable and healthy sanitizing residual.

For some applications also combines UV.

Copper and silver ions.

Does not produce oxidizers.

 


 

Is it 100% chlorine free?

e-clear
ionization

Yes, with a saturation level of dissolved O2 and a stable copper ion residual in the pool, e-clear provides an effective sanitizing and algaecidal activity without the need for chlorine.

No.

Since no oxidizers are produced, ionization is combined with an oxidizer such as chlorine.

Is the sanitation harmful to the swimmer?

e-clear
ionization

No, e-clear is 100% non-toxic. It relies mainly on a natural oxygen technology and produces only a trace amount of copper ions.

Copper levels are carefully regulated to ensure levels remain within drinking water standards.

E-clear's powerful oxidizers are produced in a sealed chamber away from the swimmer.

In the swimming pool water, dissolved Oxygen and Ionization provide water that is sanitized yet healthy and therapeutic, soft and gentle.

No corrosion, red eyes, dried out hair or skin.

No, as long as copper levels are maintained within drinking water standards.

Copper is an essential macro-nutrient and excellent for skin and hair growth.

Copper is not absorbed via the skin so 100% non-toxic.

 

 

 

Does it form disinfection byproducts (DBPs)?

e-clear
ionization
No DBPs are formed.

No DBPs are formed unless combined with chlorine.

Does it give off odours/gasses?

e-clear
ionization
No odours and no gasses are generated
No odours and no gasses are generated unless combined with chlorine.

Is it eco-friendly and water wise?

e-clear
ionization

Yes.

Does not generate any persistant organic pollutants (POPs)/ DBPs and no greenhouse gas emissions.

Energy efficient.

Water wise, since water is free from harmful chemicals and pollutants swimming pools can be back washed directly to irrigation.

Yes. As long as copper levels are maintained within drinking water standards.

Does your pool pump have to run 24/7?

e-clear
ionization

No, pumps run for normal 8-10 hours in summer.

e-clear sanitizes the pool even when the e-clear system and pumps are switched off.

No, pumps run for normal 8-10 hours in summer.

Copper provides a long lasting stable residual in the water even when pumps are switched off.

How corrosive is it?

e-clear
ionization

Not corrosive.

Oxygen converts calcium in the water to a soft bicarbonate form.

This results in water that is soft and gentle.

Not corrosive.
