The ClearBlue ionizer is an investment that quickly pays for itself thanks to the savings on chemicals and electricity required for the filtration system. The ClearBlue system reduces the use of the pool pump, filter, and heater by 8 to 10 hours per day, without compromising water quality.
By reducing the operating time of the filtration system, it's possible to make significant savings. For an outdoor pool, Hydro-Québec estimates the electricity cost of a single-speed pump operating 24 hours a day at $195 for one season.
If the pump runs only 10 hours a day, you can save about fifty dollars a year. For an in-ground pool, the savings can be as much as $100 a year! Imagine what you can save on an indoor pool!
You can estimate your electricity costs related to using your pool pump and heater on the Hydro-Québec website. The site also provides other tips for an efficient pool.
The second major savings comes from the significant reduction in chemicals used. This can amount to a minimum of $75 for 4 months of use and $225 for 12 months of use. Not only will you use less chlorine or bromine to oxidize your water, but since ions have a neutral pH, unlike chlorine, your water parameters (alkalinity, pH) will be less likely to fluctuate, so there's less need for adjustment.
The third, but not least, saving comes from extending the lifespan of all the equipment used in the pool (liners, solar cover, vacuum cleaner, filter, water heater, pump, etc.). This saving is more difficult to assess, but it certainly represents considerable costs in the long term.
