Ozone is perhaps nature's most powerful purifier. It is widely used to purify drinking water because it is pH neutral, chelates metals and destroys pathogens and other organic contaminants quickly and with no residual chemicals remaining in the water. Despite ozone's (O3) great potency, nearly all systems on spas utilize designs that fail to address the three critical components needed for successful water purification. These components are:
- Concentration of Ozone: You must produce enough ozone at high concentration to purify and you must do so year after year without significant change in ozone output.
- Contact Time: The Ozone must come in contact with the contaminants and have long enough time period to create a reaction.
- Off-Gas Destruction: Any ozone that has not reacted must be converted back to oxygen to prevent unwanted oxidation.
- Length of Ozone System Operation: The Peak Ozone System operates 24 hours a day. Delivering purifying ozone to the spa constantly. Most spas ozone systems only operate during filtration, which is a fraction of that time.
The Peak Ozone System® is the only system used on portable spas that successfully accomplishes the above. Here's how...
We begin with a Cold Fusion Corona Discharge Ozone Generator that is certified to produce 0.5 g/hr of ozone at a high concentration flow rate of 1.25 - 2 l/min. To ensure we have as much of the ozone mixed into solution as possible, we force it through a patented Mazzei® Injector. This pushes the ozone into a vacuum where the molecules are shattered into fragments smaller than water particles. Approximately 99 percent of the ozone will be mixed into solution as a result of this process.
Next, the ozone is kept in solution for a minimum contact time of 18 seconds to allow it to oxidize organic contaminates from the impure spa water. This is done by forcing the water through our Static Mixing Chamber. This special chamber utilizes the latest in mixing technology within the Tri-Pac Reaction Zone. The goal here is to increase contact time by slowing down the water flow, further mixing the ozone and facilitating a reaction.
A very small percentage of ozone gas will remain out of solution and this we need to isolate and neutralize. The Peak's Off-Gas Chamber accomplishes this by allowing undissolved ozone to rise naturally to the top of this chamber, where it is pulled through the Off-Gas Destruct Filter. This catalytic filter converts the ozone back to pure oxygen.
Finally, the ozone in solution is injected into the vacuum of the Floating-Weir Filter and from there travels to the spa's manifolds and jetting system until it is re-introduced into the spa as pure water.
The science behind the Peak Ozone System® may seem complex, but the results are amazing and the maintenance for you, the spa owner, is virtually non-existent. For Peak performance in water maintenance, choose the Peak Ozone System®, available only with Arctic Spas®.
