The LG SONIC POOL® is a small, safe ultrasonic device that helps maintain a clean swimming pool environment in swimming pools. With an effective range of over 150 feet this ultrasonic system works onall pools, including Olympic size. The ultrasound emitted by the small transducer attacks and kills all algae including the persistent black algae that grows in cracks and between tiles in pools and can loosen the green slimy layer often found on pool walls.

Using the LG Sonic Pool makes pool cleaning and maintenance much easier.
While not a total replacement for chemical products such as chlorine, LG Sonic Pool will dramatically reduce their usage in the order of 30% to 70%.

Benefits of using ultrasound for algae control in pools:
• Reduce chlorine and chemical treatments by up to 70%
• Simple to with no risk to swimmers.
• No moving parts or filters; virtually maintenance free with silent operation.
• Low operating cost. Using only 30 watts means effective anti-algae treatment for pennies a day.
• Effectively removes bio-film from swimming pool walls and pool equipment.
• Affordably priced, practical solution to reduce applications of chlorine
• Reducing chlorine in pools
means less odors, eye irritation and faded swimming suits.

Installation is quick and easy: Place the small waterproof transducer in an inconspicuous place like behind the pool ladder. The electrical control box of the unit should be in dry, covered location like a pool shed. The power supply unit is used to vibrate components in the transducer which in turn create the ultrasonic wave so there is actually no electrical current entering the water.

The ultrasonic vibrations emitted by the LG SONIC POOL cannot be heard and are not dangerous to swimmers. The ultrasonic transducer sends ultrasonic waves at 180 degrees through the water killing all algae within range. It works because the sonar vibrations rip the outer membrane (vacuole) of the algae, killing it.

Installation basics
The electric box must be installed in a dry and protected place such as a pool shed. As with any electrical installation, follow local regulations carefully. In Canada the most common system used is 120 Volt AC which can be easily integrated into a solar system where electricity is unavailable.

If you find you have a portion of the cable that is too long for linking the transducer to the box, make sure the cable does not coil or cross over itself as this may set up an induction field and reduce the signal output power. Lay and secure the cable in a zigzag pattern or contact us for shortening instructions.

After connecting the plug from the transducer into the corresponding location on the box, submerge the device so that it "looks" forward into the water body you want treated. The goal is to treat as much water as possible within range of your system. As soon as the transducer is connected to the electrical box, the system is in operation and the light will begin blinking, indicating the ultrasonic signal is being sent from the box to the submerged transducer. At no time is electrical current being placed in the water. The power is used to vibrate components in the transducer which in turn create the ultrasonic wave.

The ultrasonic vibration waves leave the transducer in approximately a 180 degree arc that expands vertically and horizontally outward into the water body. Sonic waves will reflect down into the water from the water surface covering as much area as possible.
