The 5 Best Solar Pool Ionizers
Editor's Notes
May 31, 2019:
The Remington Sun Shock is our top choice because it's also excellent in non-pool bodies of water. If you have a koi pond or something similar in your backyard, you should give it a look, as it can keep away a variety of unwanted flora and fauna, not just the microscopic kind. That said, it performs wonderfully in pools as well.
The DR Global is high on our list because a single unit can handle bigger pools, giving you excellent bang for your buck. We also liked that it comes with a spare copper rod, thereby extending its lifespan.
We wanted to like the Marrick Enterprises SolarChlor a lot more than we did — the idea certainly shows promise. However, the chlorine dispenser isn't terribly reliable, so you're paying for half of a 2-in-1 machine, basically. The ionizer is effective, but you'll likely find better value buying a dedicated model.
