The Choice is Clear: CD Ozone is the Superior Sanitizer

There are many alternative sanitizers available to the residential pool owner, and all of them provide at least some protection against water contaminants. But DEL’s Corona Discharge (CD) ozonator is the only sanitizer that is effective against the broadest array of likely pool contaminants.

CD ozone systems produce healthy, pure pool water that feels good, looks good, and smells good.
CD ozone kills or neutralizes the widest possible range of contaminants: microorganisms (including cryptosporidium), human fluids, cosmetics and oils, metallic contaminants, most organic materials, chloramines, and more. Nothing else comes close.
CD ozone is the simple, automatic sanitizer that cleans your water naturally week in and week out.
CD ozone does not have the kind of noxious byproducts that chlorine and salt do – its only byproduct is ordinary oxygen. Pool ozone is environmentally safe – and safe for families.
CD ozone is cost effective.
CD ozone helps clarify the pool water in two ways: its oxygen byproduct helps make water sparkle and ozone is a micro-flocculent meaning it helps particles clump so the filter system can remove them.

Ozone Systems are Easier to Maintain

The fact is that every alternative pool sanitizer needs to be used properly to get its full effect. In the case of ozone systems, that means you need to have a properly sized ozonator that is properly installed and operated. The pool ozonator product comparisons on this website can help you pick the right ozone generator to purify your pool, and each contains instructions on how to install it.

It’s a lot simpler to pick an ozone system to fit your pool than to rely 100% on chlorine or bromine. These chemical regimens require frequent testing and chemical balancing to be effective. Many pool owners simply do not have the time to invest in learning or exercising this continuous vigilance against the problems that can infect a pool.

Ionizers and other alternative sanitizers are easier to use than chlorine by itself also, but they don’t have the wide spectrum impact of ozone.
