| Description of Tests | |||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||
Ionizers pass a low-voltage current between two electrodes to produce small positively charged particles (“ions”) of copper and silver that act as a potent biocide at even trace levels. Reportedly, copper is most effective against yellow (mustard) algae; silver, against black algae.
Ionization systems are designed so that only the copper-ion level needs monitoring; when it is correct, the silver level will be too.
When the ionization method is employed, the water’s pH should be kept between 7.2 and 7.4 to prevent metal stains. All of Taylor’s combination test kits for analyzing pool water contain a pH test in this range. The Myron L ULTRAPEN™ PT2 (#6556) that we carry is also handy for testing pH.
Some manufacturers of ionization systems also recommend keeping total dissolved solids (TDS) at 500 ppm or higher to enhance conductivity. TDS can be tested with either a drop test or a handheld meter
