    Floatron is a solar powered ionizer...Austraila has totally banned their use in spas and in pools can only be used with normal FC levels.
    The instruction manual
    http://www.floatron.com/instruct.htm
    states that you must maintain at least a 1 ppm FC and possibly higher and that it puts .3 ppm copper into the water! I can put .3 ppm copper into my water if I wanted to (I don't) much more cheaply with a bottle of copper based algaecide!
