| There is no replacement for chlorine/bromine in pool water disinfection. For any alternative treatment/sanitizer to replace chlorine/bromine, it must:
- provide a stable measurable residual;
- be a biocide that kills viruses, bacteria and algae; and
- oxidize impurities introduced by bathers.
Chlorine/Bromine is the only sanitizer that fulfills these three functions. However chlorine/bromine is not the best oxidizer. Incomplete oxidation accounts for up to 70% of their usage and 100% of their problems.

The UltraPure™ Automatic Water Cleaner™ produces the strongest oxidizer available (ozone). The UltraPure™ Automatic Water Cleaner™ does the oxidation work normally attempted by chlorine/bromine. Obnoxious combined chlorine/bromine compounds are eliminated. Chlorine/bromine then only provides a "free available" residual. All problems and wasted chemicals associated with combined chlorine/bromine are eliminated. The UltraPure™ Automatic Water Cleaner™ continually burns out contaminants introduced by swimmers. This function is no longer fulfilled by chlorine/bromine.
To summarize, chlorine’s biocidal and residual properties are excellent, and in pool and spa water, chlorine is the primary biocide and the free available residual. Ozone is the primary oxidizer. Ozone increases chlorine’s effectiveness as a biocide and residual.
Without Ozone, the homeowner uses much more chlorine to keep a free available residual and requires “superchlorination” or “shocking” compounds and other specialty chemicals to treat problems caused by pool oxidation by chlorine.
Note: Each UltraPure™ Ozone generator comes complete with a Dial Flowmeter Suction Side Parts Package (DFSSPP), External Safety Air Bleed Kit (ESABK), Owner’s Manual and Warranty Card |
