Is this an ionizer or salt system?

my ionizer is the best thing i have bought for my pool....it does not let you understand how or why it works but the main thing is it does....no other chem. needed..maybe a little shock after a rain.

This product is an ionizer. The system chamber disperses natural minerals into the water, such as copper and silver, that act as natural algaecides.

It shuts off when it reaches or exceeds the temp it is set on....but I'm not sure what the ionizer does

Best to vacate room ionizer is in. Yes, take cat out. Manufacturer brochure also states you should not stare into box.

As long you have all the tubes installed as the instructions indicates, you will have Ionizer Water in minutes. You Also can contact the manufacture for more specifications on your equipment.

You can select the distiller water setting on the ionizer instead of alkaline or acid

The system creates chlorine from the salt that you put in the pool. There are copper electrodes of sorts that react somehow, and it works! We used ours the last 2 summers and it worked just fine with regular rinsing/flushing. I cleaned them this spring with vinegar, and put it together and turned it on. Money well spent.

Most likely the installation is incorrect. Please take a look at the youtube video at IntelGadgetsTV to see 2 different types of installation. As a quick fix, try switching the tubes at the bottom of the ionizer, sometimes it's mixed up.For any assistance, installation questions, warranty, feedback, please contact us at support@intelgadgets.com (24/7) or 1-888-200-3370 (Mon-Fri 10am-6pm EST)

It seems like some kind of salt. But I am not 100% certain. Sorry I could not be more helpful.

I kept adding salt to the pool and the PPM wasn't going up. It was staying around 1700 or so. I talked to my pool guy and he suggested I replace the cell. He said they generally only last about 5-6 years. I got 7. When I installed the new cell, my salt PPM was up around 6,000...not a happy level for the equipment.

Just salt. The filter and hoses are included. I love this system. Add 2 bags of salt and then add gradually. I put in 3 bags for the same size pool and the salt was high. The only way to fix that is to drain 20% of the water and refill. Did that and now it is working beautifully. So easy!!!!!

SALT... I had the floatron and that was a total waste of money. It barely did anything and requires you to check it out all the time and replace the rod and clean things. It does the job but waaay too much work. If you want customer support or tech support they are rude. I have a Pool Pilot Digital - Nano (smaller one) and it was about $750 installed with the salt. Love it. In cooler months no salt has to be added. When it is hot and the water heats up it takes salt maybe twice a season or so. Maybe a few bags. It has a digital printout of the temp of the water and the % of purification and it will tell you how much salt is needed if any. All digital. Love it. SALT...

First, I would ask how you know you have enough salt? Second, I was having that issue so I just purchased a Taylor testing kit to insure that I did. Also, you need to make sure you keep the unit extremely clean so that it can generate the chlorine for your pool. I am new at this and just learning so I am no exoert.

Absolutely. I would not use an ionizer and I turned mine off. Very easy to do! Just press one button. On the front of the unit, there are various buttons with lights underneath. The Very bottom button looks like a star (?) If this is lit blue, the ionizer is on. To turn it off, press and hold the button until the light goes off (this take a few seconds). Good to go, without ions.

From what I remember I purchased this one because it did not, I had read on a website that ionizer for asthma is not good. However I will add that I returned this because it began to smell like 'fish'. the Honeywell people said it was due to water getting into the filter. Well I could not figure out what could have happened it was only a week or two so I returned it and decided not to bother with one. My daughter bought one from costco from Blueair that was significantly more money and not ionizer either and she really likes it with no problems.

I use the same salt that I use in my home Morton's System Saver, it seems to be the cleanest. On a different note the softener is an excellent unit. Merry Christmas!

I am about ready to give up on this system.... just added salt, and it still says low salt... cleaned the sensor, checked all the issues that the manual suggests, and unless I add additional chlorine it is not converting the salt to chlorine.... ugggggg frustrated!!
