How does copper-silver ionization purify water?
It is a well-established, well-documented fact that copper ions in water will inhibit algae growth, while silver ions kill bacteria and viruses. The electrodes consist of a metal plated cathode and a metal plated anode. Low voltage is introduced as direct current, at milliamp levels, that passes between the cathode and anode. As the current moves, it produces metal ions from the copper and silver. Because water is flowing through the chamber, many of these ions are swept away before they can reach the other side of the electrode. The electrodes are scientifically formulated with a 96% copper and 4% silver alloy mix.
