Mineral Water System

APPLICATIONS

PRIVATE POOLS

Private Swimming PoolWith the Mineral Water System, you can swim in pure, healthy, chemical-free mineral water in your own home pool. As a chlorine-free system, you can swim free from the potential dangers of carcinogenic trihalomethanes.

No more stinging eyes, dry and itchy skin, and bleached hair and swim wear. No more chlorine fumes drifting through your home. And, there is no more need to shower after swimming to remove chlorine smells.

But, there are other benefits to using the Mineral Water System: mineral water is pH neutral and non-corrosive, so your pool surfaces and equipment last longer. Moreover, plants can thrive in the mineral water mist from your pool - unlike chlorinated spray, which destroys plants.

Overall, the Mineral Water System is energy and cost efficient, and saves you time on water maintenance. For a more detailed list of the benefits of using the Mineral Water System, click here.

The system can be built into new pools or simply installed into existing pools without draining them.

COMMERCIAL POOLS

Commercial Swimming PoolWith thousands of successful installations in large commercial pools around the world, the Mineral Water System is the choice for YMCAs, hotels, communities, government fountains, and private pools. Concerns over chlorine resistant bacteria (E. Coli, Legionella, etc) have health authorities and pool operators installing the system.

DUAL SYSTEM:

In countries where there is a statutory chlorine level of 1-3ppm for commercial pools, we recommend a dual system: using the Mineral Water System alongside the minimum chlorine level of 1ppm. In a commercial pool where there can be a sudden, heavy swimmer load, this dual system has a proven advantage: independent tests have shown that the bacteria kill rate is increased by up to 1000 times with the dual system than with chlorine alone.

By installing the Mineral Water System, your swimming facility can be promoted as a truly healthy, mineral water swimming environment. As a chlorine-free system, your patrons can swim free from the potential dangers of carcinogenic trihalomethanes. And, no more stinging eyes, dry and itchy skin, and bleached hair and swim wear.

But, there are other benefits to using the Mineral Water System: mineral water is pH neutral and non-corrosive, so your pool surfaces and equipment last longer. Moreover, plants can thrive in the mineral water mist from your pool - unlike chlorinated spray, which destroys plants.

YMCA pools in the USA that use the Mineral Water System report a dramatic fall in incidences of Exercise Induced Asthma (EIA) due to the elimination of chlorine fumes. They also report a much lower rate of upper respiratory infections in competitive swimmers who train in pools with the system. To see their testimonial, click here.

WATER FEATURES AND FOUNTAINS

Fountain of Wealth Suntec City SingaporeThe world's largest decorative fountain - the Fountain of Wealth in Suntec City, Singapore (see picture on left) - is sanitized by the Mineral Water System.

Ionization is the best suited water treatment technology for decorative fountains for several reasons:
  • Automatically Sanitizes Fountain without daily dosing and handling of chemicals
  • Works to Prevent Algae and Frequent Fountain Maintenance
  • The Ion Level will Hold for Long Periods of time while chlorine begins to dissipate immediately
  • Energy Efficient - Costs almost nothing to operate the low power ion generators
  • Saves Time on Maintenance
  • pH Neutral. Will not affect water balance. Non-Corrosive

But perhaps one of the most significant factors is that plants can thrive in the water mist from ionized systems while chlorinated spray will destroy them. In addition, water sufficiently chlorinated to prevent algae is going to be corrosive and etch the fountain surfaces and equipment. Consequently, the operating cost differences between chlorine and ionization are significant.

Considering plant/flower replacement costs, premature deterioration of fountain and equipment, and the cost of chlorine chemicals, fountain operators can expect significant savings on maintenance budgets. The equipment payback period is often less than one year.

SPAS AND HOT TUBS

SpaSpas and good health go together. However, most spas that use chlorine are plagued by noxious chlorine fumes that become overwhelming in indoor spas.

In heated spas and hot tubs, chlorine sanitization encounters two drawbacks: heated water produces more chlorine fumes, and the effectiveness of chlorine is decreased with higher temperatures, therefore more is needed.

The Mineral Water System is not affected by temperature. As a chlorine-free system, it is healthy, reduces noxious chlorine-odors indoors, prevents corrosion of spa and tub equipment, and enhances your water quality. Moreover, by installing the Mineral Water System, you can see economic chemical savings in excess of 60%.
