Built for backyard pool owners who want fewer chemicals and clearer water, this petal-shaped solar pool ionizer floats on the surface and uses the sun to power continuous copper ion release into pool water, helping control green growth on liners, walls, and steps without leaning on weekly chemical pool treatments. A single unit treats up to 45000 gal. (170343 L) of water and works on in-ground and above-ground pools, saltwater pools, outdoor spas, and chlorine pools, compatible with all common pool surfaces. The kit ships ready to use: the petal-shaped yellow main unit, copper rod, copper cleaning brush, spring, fasteners, filter screen, user manual, and 50 6-in-1 water test strips so you can monitor pH, copper ion, and water balance from day one and stay in the recommended 7.2 to 7.6 pH window that helps avoid red eyes, dry skin, and dull hair after a swim. Construction is built to last: thick, crack-resistant PE housing with reinforced seals at key points carries an IPX8 waterproof rating, and the copper rod inside is corrosion-resistant for long-lasting use in chlorinated and saltwater environments. The float measures 9.25 x 9.25 x 6.41 in. (235 x 235 x 163 mm) and weighs only 2.2 lb. (1 kg) including all accessories, easy to drop in and easy to lift out for the petal-style brush cleaning the kit recommends (model GY-1004).
