Copper Silver Ionization

How it Works

Our unmatched copper silver method introduces disinfectant ions that travel throughout the
plumbing infrastructure and attack Legionella living downstream, embedded in biofilm within
the plumbing distribution system, providing systemic disinfection. In our method, bacteria is
killed, rather than merely suppressed, as is the case with alternative Legionella treatment
methods.

This technology provides a controlled release of copper and silver ions into the water supply to
kill harmful waterborne pathogens. We disinfect water systems by penetrating through the wall
of the bacteria, irreversibly damaging its key enzyme and consequently inactivating all traces of
the bacteria. This is achieved by applying an electric current across silver and copper coated
electrodes into the bacterial culture to produce nanoparticles that enhance antibiotic action at
the anode. Systemically introducing these disinfectant ions in a facility water system, such as
the plumbing infrastructure, inactivates Legionella and other harmful waterborne pathogens
deeply embedded in the biofilm thereby improving water quality. We ensure bacteria are killed,
rather than merely suppressed, as is the case with alternative Legionella treatment methods.

Aside from being an effective method for combating Legionella, copper silver ionization is also
the most environmentally friendly solution – with no harmful disinfection byproducts.

Features and Benefits of Copper Silver Ionization

Copper silver ionization is the safest and most environmentally friendly solution to your water safety
needs. This method is non-corrosive yet effectively cuts through the biofilm without damaging the
distribution system. The efficacy of copper silver ionization is not dependent on water temperature,
therefore making it effective throughout an entire water system. Copper silver ionization does not
involve any disinfection byproducts and has a longer lasting local affectivity than most other
disinfectants because it remains in the water for a long period of time. Copper silver ionization does not
require consumables that are unsafe for handling. The ions introduced into the water supply are safe for
human consumption and will not cause damage to the plumbing environment.

Be proactive about prevention by innovative copper silver ionization method help you
create safe, secure, and clean environments that accommodate to your unique needs.
