Ozone-Chlorination

The use of ozone as a sanitizer for pool water is often referred to as an alternative to chlorine, but it really should be referred to as a co-sanitizer with chlorine, because some chlorine - albeit in trace amounts - is required to assist the ozone in sanitizing the pool water.

This is known as ozone-chlorination.

There are many pool sanitizer options.
