Evaluation of Solar Powered Pool Purification Device
purification within two weeks (depending on pool volume) provided insolation 
levels are sufficient. 
The FLOATRON device greatly reduces the need for chlorine. Based on the 
results of the test, it appears that the test pool will operate with between 75-85% 
less chlorine, depending on bather load, when the copper ion level is maintained 
within the manufacturer's recommended range. 
The Ion levels produced by the device drop fairly slowly. In the test pool, it took 
over three weeks for the level to drop from the top of the recommended level 
(0.40 ppm) to the bottom recommended level (0.20 ppm). 
The electrical performance of the unit is sufficient to produce ions under various 
solar conditions. 
The FLOATRON device reduces calcium hardness levels and water hardness 
levels by precipitating these metals onto the coil electrode. The device lowered 
the calcium hardness level in the pool by 100 ppm during the test period. 
In summary, based on our test results and year of experience we find that the 
FLOATRON device is an effective way to reduce chemical use and eliminate 
algae while maintaining superior water chemistry.
