Quick overview
- Strong oxidizer Ozone is the strongest oxidizer available for pool water, and it acts on contact.
- Takes over the oxidizing The generator does the oxidation work that chlorine and bromine otherwise attempt on their own.
- Fewer combined compounds Burning out swimmer waste removes the combined chlorine and bromine compounds behind pool odor and eye sting.
- Sanitizer still required Ozone does not replace chlorine or bromine, which have to stay in the water for a measurable free residual.
- Works while you circulate Treatment is continuous rather than something you dose by hand.
- Cuts wasted chemical Incomplete oxidation accounts for up to 70 percent of chlorine and bromine usage, so shifting that load matters.

Product details
The UltraPure 1005500, model BFO3-85, is a high output ozone generator that treats pool water as it circulates. UltraPure calls the family an automatic water cleaner, and the description is accurate: it runs with the system and continually burns out the contaminants swimmers introduce.
Oxidation, not sanitizing
Any alternative treatment that claims to replace chlorine or bromine has to do three things: hold a stable measurable residual, kill viruses, bacteria and algae, and oxidize what bathers bring into the water. Chlorine and bromine are the only sanitizers that manage all three, so they stay in the pool. What they are not good at is the third job. Ozone is a far stronger oxidizer, so this unit takes that work over and leaves the chlorine or bromine to provide a free available residual.
What changes in the water
Combined chlorine and bromine compounds are the ones responsible for the harsh smell, the irritated eyes and the sense that a pool needs more chemical than it should. With ozone handling oxidation those compounds are eliminated rather than accumulated. Incomplete oxidation accounts for as much as 70 percent of chlorine and bromine consumption, so the chemical bill and the day to day fuss both come down.
