The floatron was invented by United States Navy Veteran Mark Sherman. It has been in continuous production since 1989. Each floatron is assembled by hand at our factory in Phoenix, Arizona.
While experimenting with prototype pool ionizers, Sherman realized that the very small current needed to activate the ionization process of an electrode could be powered by sunlight. Further testing and experimentation determined that the minerals used to create an electrode could be enhanced using silver. The floatron was born.
Over the years, there have been many knockoff versions of the original floatron model. These fake devices typically come from China and are inferior in every way. They don't last and they don't clear the water as well as an authentic floatron. Furthermore, most of these cannot replicate the robust plastic and ultra-durable solar panel material used to construct the floatron. Most of these knockoff's become brittle in the sunshine, which is ironic since that is the environment in which they are placed! But mostly, the unique electrode is the key that makes the floatron work so well. This unique part is the reason why hundreds of thousands of people insist on an authentic floatron. It really works well and absolutely minimizes the use of irritating chlorine.
The proprietary electrode is the key ingredient that makes it work so well.
