What the heck is an IonGen™?

, ,
Spring is just around the corner! The warm weather we are having is giving me spring fever. Yesterday I was walking down a sidewalk and I caught the smell of dirt. It was a great reminder of what is soon to come. I am sure there will be a few cold spells and several inches of snowfall yet, but the days are getting longer and the sun is warmer. Pond season is soon upon us.

 

We are preparing for the season and getting ready to prepare and start up the ponds again. We will be trying out a new product this year for tackling our algae control throughout the season. It is called the IonGen™ System by Aquascape, Inc. The IonGen™ System has been available to the public for over a year now. The reviews have been great. Any issues that came up during the prototype period prior to being available to the public, and any that came up over the past year have been addressed. Following is a description and picture of the new system from Aquascape, Inc.

 
Electronic clarifier for ponds and pondless waterfall systems. Simple to install.
 

  The Aquascape IonGen™ is a water clarifier solution for ponds, Pondless Waterfalls, and other decorative water features. The IonGen™ drastically reduces pond maintenance and provides crystal clear water without the use of chemicals. A microprocessor inside the IonGen™ control panel causes the outermost atoms of copper, silver and zinc to lose an electron, creating a positive ion. The positive ion attempts to flow from one of the Probe’s bars to the other and is swept away by the flow of water where the ion can begin to treat the water. The IonGen™ Probe is self cleaning, using reverse polarity to prevent scale and debris build-up on the Probe’s bars. The metal alloys in the Probe are scientifically blended and tested to produce maximum results. The IonGen™ System is safe for fish and plants and is not toxic to any animals that may drink from the pond.
