I remember a couple of companies using copper and electricity to clean pools. The copper is better at keeping algae and fungus at bay. CS is not as good, but with H2O2 I imagine it would work.

Hmmmm, although, it might turn the pool yellow? We have small children and we have a 13,000 gallon above ground swimming pool and are exploring options. We hooked up my medical grade ozone generator a few years back and it seemed to work not bad but it wasn't an effective stand alone product-course we aren't sure we turned it on enough. Being located in direct sunlight encourages algae....We may try it again this year.... An older chiropractor we've just met says he just uses hydrogen peroxide by the cupful and an algae bar www.algaebar.com and it works just great- he's got 6 grown sons and some grandkids that use it. He says he's been doing it so long he doesn't use the h202 test strips. We will have to compare costs vs effectiveness, although it is difficult to find others who are successfully "100% chlorine free" with a 24' pool. Hot tubs are usually where you see most of the information, but that is such a small body of water in comparison and there is no plastic liner to contend with. I am curious if anyone knows anything about this "algae bar" and if it is truly 'safe'.... I read one person suggesting that if it 'killed algae' it was probably harming humans too but I would think the ppm would be so low?? On their website they indicate that it emits copper... but then in one paragraph they indicate it gives off silver- so I'm not sure if that is a typo or not... Of course I also discovered something called the "Floatron" www.floatron.com but it's $260 US! It's concept looks a bit like the 'algae bar'- I think. Any experience, thoughts etc.??
