How It Works
Supplemental sanitizers such as ozone, UV, AOP (advanced oxidation) and mineral systems reduce the chlorine demand of the pool or spa. UV and ozone inactivate microorganisms and oxidize contaminants as water passes through the unit, AOP combines both to create hydroxyl radicals, and mineral systems release metal ions that assist sanitation. They work alongside, not instead of, a residual sanitizer such as chlorine.
How to Choose the Right Mineral Sanitizer Cartridge
- Size the system to the pool or spa volume and the pump flow rate.
- Check plumbing size, mounting method and electrical requirements.
- Plan for consumables: UV lamps and sleeves, ozone generator service, mineral cartridges.
- Confirm local health code requirements for commercial pools.
