Listen to your inner skeptic. She could take the ionizer off the pool, and find that the pool water doesn't change, as long as she maintains her chlorine. The chlorine is doing the work. If the ionizer actually made a difference in the water, why does it also require chlorine?


Last summer, just out of curiosity, I put an ionizer on my koi pond, which is next to my pool. What I ended up with, within a couple of days, was a nice, cloudy, algae-filled pond. Just practical evidence to confirm that the ionizer doesn't actually do anything to the water, except maybe add a bit of copper or silver, and I don't want either. It certainly doesn't do anything to keep the water clean.
