Dear Phil, Thank you so much for all you have done... this system is the best I've ever used. I know I called many times for assistance but you were always there and ready to help and answer all my questions. All of the hurdles I had were me not fully understanding the impact of balance and preparation but you were patient with me and more than eager to help. That is why I want to send you pictures of my pool and tell you that I have had to do nothing since I last called you (in July I think). You were right on with the importance of Phosphate control... I removed the Phosphates and in a week had a crystal clear pool WITH NO CHLORINE. NO SMELL, NO LABOR (just usual vacuuming). I have friends that have bought other systems that can't compare mainly because they still need to put chlorox in their pool once a week... not me!!! Nothing!!! Just me. Thanks again, John M. Hill Simpsonville, SC August 2007 I can't tell you how happy I have been over the last five years with your product. Your local people, James Rhead and Steve Scott, are great. You can have anyone contact me regarding ECOsmarte. John Tari

Dear ECOsmarte, I've used the lonetics system in my pool for at over 10 years, but the pool is about 37 to 40 years old. (We bought the house in 1987, and it was about 20 years old then.) We switched from a sand to a DE filter when we installed the copper system, and have had the tiling regrouted within the last 5 years. That was the only time we emptied the pool, a very large saving for us over the times when we had to dump and replace about every 3 years due to stabilizer build-up. Water is scarce in St. Croix, and 17,000 gallons had cost us about $750. It would be even more expensive now, because of fuel costs. All of the water one can buy is produced by desalination of sea water. Yours truly, John
January, 2007 First, and foremost, I am VERY pleased with the way the pool has gotten into shape and how well it has looked for the last couple of months. I really appreciate your efforts and your tenacity. The prospect of swimming in chlorine free water is very appealing to us. Bill August, 2006 Dear ECOsmarte, We wanted to thank you for your wonderful pool system. We have been using this system for 6 years now and we are chemical free. It is so wonderful knowing that our children (7 of them) and us can safely swim in the pool daily and not be concerned that we are getting "chlorinated" to death! We love eco smart! Sincerely, Bonnie & Martin Nedza
July , 2006 Dear ECOsmarte, My husband and I recently purchased your ECOsmarte Turbo Pool System and we are truly pleased with it. We are amazed at the clarity of the water, how soft our skin is after exiting the pool, and the lack of odor. Our skin no longer feels itchy or dry, and our bodies do not smell of chemicals, such as chlorine. Several of our friends have chlorine sensitivities and were not able to enjoy our pool during summer gatherings. They now are able to enjoy the water without reactions and have further commented on how the water feels light and soft. We look forward to enjoying the rest of this summer being chemical, chlorine, free! Sincerely,
May, 2006
Dear Mr. Johnson:
I am writing to let you know how much our family loves our swimming pool since we purchased the ionic water purification system from ECOsmarte. We live in Central Pennsylvania and have an 18ft. x 36 ft. in the ground pool of twenty seven years. During this period of time we have tried several methods of water purification. We started with and used chlorine (HTH) for thirteen years and then switched to baquacil for four years and finally in 1996 we purchased the ionic purification system from ECOsmarte which we are currently using and like very much. The great thing about the ionic purification system is that once you get your water chemistry in balance there is very little work to maintaining a picture perfect pool. More important is the fact that this system provides you pure water without any toxic chemicals and at the same time saves you the expense of those chemicals. In addition, the ionic system uses very little electricity so it is inexpensive to operate. After using all three methods of purifying our pool water I would recommend the ionic purification system by ECOsmarte over all the other methods. You can't beat this system with all the advantages it has to offer. Thank you. Sincerely, Roger Guss.
February, 2006
Dear Jeremy, I just spoke with
you on the phone about getting Replacement Copper Electrodes - enclosed is the
picture of our pool. Thank you, October, 2005 Dear ECOsmarte, Your system has served my pool well this year. The system was installed in October of 2004, and when I opened the pool in May of 2005 the water was crystal clear and blue. Your friendly staff helped me with several questions about the system's workings and are available readily by phone. I just closed the pool for this year and I'm very happy with the ease of maintenance that I had all this summer! Thank you, Kerry Viar Roanoke, VA
Mike, We really love our ECOsmarte system. It keeps our pool clean. We like how the water feels, without the use of chemicals. John & Ashley Duncan September, 2005 Mike, My ECOsmarte system has been wonderful to work with. My pool water has been clear for six years now. Once the system is learned no one should have any trouble, that is if they follow the instructions. I am 72 years old and if I can do it, anyone can. Sincerely, George Marov Western KY April, 2005 ... As a side note, my ECOsmarte has been installed in my pool since 1997 and continues to work with great satisfaction. Best decision we ever made in installing this system. We love our chlorine free pool Very Best, April, 2005 Jeremy, Thank you for all your help with our copper ionizer system. We absolutely love it! Our pool is so clean and chlorine-smelling free! I have long blonde hair, and for the first time in my life, my hair has not turned green! Our friends and family members could not believe it! It is so easy to maintain and you all are always so wonderful and helpful whenever we have a question or concern. You are Johnny on the spot! We have recommended this system to several of our friends and they love the system just as much as we do! Stan just swears by his and Terry just loves the fact that her and her dogs can swim in it and be completely safe!! Thank you again and so soon as we get the pool open this summer we will send you tons of pictures of our clean blue water!! Have a great day! Sincerely, Chris and Dacia Blanks :-) Louisville, KY April, 2005
My name is Shirley Porter and I would just like to
take the time to say how much I love my ECOsmarte pool system. Just knowing that
my family is swimming in a chemical free environment makes ECOsmarte the right
choice for me. The ionizing copper system makes it so easy for me to keep my
pool clean and crystal clear. Also, there is no need to add chemicals making the
ECOsmarte system very cost efficient.
Shirley Porter February, 2005 The nice folks at Pinch-A-Remy have a hard time believing my ten year old pool has never had a drop of chlorine, bromine and bacquacil. We bought your system in 1994 when we were moving here from Ohio and we could not be happier. We are thousands of dollars ahead at this point and everyone loves our water. Ray Demczyk Cape Coral, FL August 2, 2004 Dear Sirs, We have been extremely pleased with how your product has worked over those years. No chlorine burn to the eyes, no being held hostage to the pool by having to check the chemicals daily. It is really a worthwhile investment. As a former student at Bemidji, 1968, I learned that great things came from Minnesota. Jeffrey Draleigh Connecticut June 21, 2004 Dear ECOsmarte, I absolutely LOVE my Chlorine Free pool!!! And all my friends think its fabulous too. Especially one of my friends that has an allergic reaction to chlorinated pool water. She loves to swim in mine. I have used my ECOsmarte system for 3 pool seasons now and have became spoiled by it - I don't think I would care to swim in any chlorinated pool now! Thank you so much for a great system and for the replacement copper plate offer. Sincerely, Brenda Graham San Diego, California
April 8, 2004
Dear Sirs,
The ECOsmarte system is the BEST thing to come along in years. It keeps the pool fresh and clean and best of all we do not have to use any of those chlorine tablets, etc.
Thank you I now have time to enjoy my pool more.
Sincerely, Graham Rego Los Angeles, California
February 9, 2004 We just wanted to let you know how much we like our ECOsmarte Pool Cleaning System. We built our pool in 1997 and installed the ECOsmarte system at that time. We researched various methods available to clean pools. We did not want to use any toxic chemicals, especially chlorine. We selected ECOsmarte because it met our criteria. It used Ionic Purification and we felt it was the best available method for cleaning pools. There is nothing like walking out to our pool and seeing crystal clear, sparkling water. Swimming in the pool is a delight. No chlorine in the hair or on your body. Thanks again for developing a great pool cleaning system like ECOsmarte. It's the BEST!!! Walter Kozlov Oro Valley, Arizona
December 2, 2003 Dear ECOsmarte, I am very pleased with the quality of your product and the dramatic change I have experienced with my pool; although, at first, I was skeptical whether or not the Ecosmarte system was going to work. I quickly realize that the system backed all it claimed. I can swim in my pool without the awful smell of chlorine. Its wonderful! The combination of the Ecosmarte chamber and the ZEOsmarte in my filter has resulted in the cleanest, purest water I have ever had the luxury of swimming in. I thank you once again for inventing a product as revolutionary as this one with my health in mind.
Sincerely, Miami, FL |
August, 2003 We have had our swimming pool for 1 year and use no chemicals because of the efficiency of your ECOsmarte ionizer system. It was easy to install; just connect it to the water line going back to the pool, connect the wires as you instruct and turn it on. Pure clean water with no maintenance. We thank you for your product and look forward to many years of enjoyment from our pool. Sincerely, Jim DeFede |
July, 2003 Installing the ECOsmarte system to my pool was by far the smartest thing I have done to my pool! Thanks again, Frank Radien |
July, 2003 Mike, I wanted to stop and take a few minutes to tell you how much I appreciate all the helpful service I have received from everyone at ECOsmarte whenever I have called with a question. Everyone I have talked with has been very supportive and helpful. Everyone has always given an abundance of help and advice with any problem I have had with my pool. I appreciate their interest in helping me to solve my pool problem, and the pride they all take in doing their job and helping me to get my pool on line and running efficiently. After we worked through some of my problems , (mostly equipment problems which we found was mainly a undersized D.E.Filter) and once we got the ionization times, and my CO2 injection times dialed in, my pool has been a piece of cake to keep up with. Two years ago, before we had our ECOsmarte system, we went on vacation only to return home to find our pool full of algae. It’s comforting to know we can now go away for a week or two and know that our pool will be as pristine and clean when we return as it was when we left. It’s nice to actually spend time swimming with my family instead of running tests and adding chlorine and acid. With smaller children in the house, it is comforting to know that I now no longer have to keep gallons of harmful chemicals around. My younger kids love the fact that they can now swim without the water burning their eyes. My oldest daughter has been impressed with the fact that she can wash her hair in the morning, go swimming for a couple of hours and still have her hair smelling like it was freshly washed when she is done. Again thanks for everyone’s help at ECOsmarte! I think you have a great product with great service. If you ever have anyone in my area who is thinking about purchasing a ECOsmarte system for their pool, feel free to have them give me a call, and I will be happy to show them my system and run them through the benefits of an ECOsmarte system. Mike Fenter |
June, 2003 Dear Larry, Nice to talk to you Saturday June 14, and thank you for agreeing to send out new electrodes for my ECOsmarte unit purchased in 2000. I thought I had sent an email at that time for a set , but might not have realized the need for a statement on the system,. Which we greatly admire. My wife, Vanessa loves to but absolutely cannot stand chlorine—terrible on her eyes. Plus, the wonderful pool in the house we purchased in 2000 is indoors, and why live with a chlorine odor if you do not have to. Our pool has been nothing but trouble free, all 30,000 gallons, since the unit was installed—clean, odor free water, a joy to swim. I have cleaned the electrodes in acid as instructed periodically, but now am having keeping the copper level at desired ppm and notice lack of bubbles off the electrodes with corrosion unable to remove fully, and we have a early creep of algae in the bottom of the shallow end (vacuumed away last nite as I finally heated the pool for the season so my wife and I can swim daily—she is the smoothest swimmer you will ever see), so it is time to replace the electrodes and I look forward to continuing this easy-maintenance chlorine free system. Whenever we talk to pool owners, we praise the system and give your name, so I hope we have sent some business your way. Sincerely, The Sutherlands |
May, 2003 Dear Jamie, I am writing to tell you and everyone at ECOsmarte how much I enjoy your product. Having a chlorine-free pool is amazing. I can backwash the pool and let the water go on the yard without having to worry about the chlorine killing the grass. I have a fiberglass pool and with your system maintenance is almost nothing. Everyone that I know that has had a pool without your system hates all the work of adding chlorine. I have had three others get your system for their pools after swimming in my pool. Ken Kossa |
February, 2003 Installed September 2002. It is a pleasure not having to swim in chemicals. No odor, crystal water and no deposit ring on tile. The Arizona market is above average in chemical usage during the hot months of the year, the system will pay for itself in a short amount of time simply because of chemical savings. So far the system is working as advertised. Roc and Diana Campise |
January, 2003 Dear James, In June of 2002 we had the ECOsmarte system installed in our pool. Because we had to stop using chlorine several days before installing the system our pool water was pretty green in color. Within twenty-four hours our pool was sparkling with crystal clear water. The following week we went on vacation for a week and came back to the same clear sparkling pool. Previously, when using chlorine that was not the case. We would come home to algae. The pool water with the ECOsmarte is soft, silky feeling and light. Pool brushing doesn’t need to be done nearly as often as before. Also, brushes last much longer because they’re no longer affected by the chlorine, which breaks the bristles down. But best of all, your skin doesn’t itch and you don’t have whatever other harmful side effects that come with chlorine. We are one of the first ECOsmarte owners in our area of South Florida and would not hesitate to recommend it to other pool owners. Daniel and Gayle Rogalski |
2002 I installed the ECOsmarte system in less than an hour. From the day it was installed our pool has been crystal clear with virtually no chemical additives. I added one gallon of muriatic acid to adjust the pH and since that time I haven't added anything to the pool. Our pool is so clear and chemical free, our two children almost refuse to swim in our friends pools that are chlorinated. They hate the smell and what chlorinated water does to their hair. I estimate that the ECOsmarte system will save me over $600 a season in chemicals and reduce my pumping time by 50%. I don't understand why not every swimming pool come equipped with the ECOsmarte system when the pool is installed. It is one of the best investments I have ever made. Turk Tergliafera |
2002 Dear ECOsmarte, I want to thank you for inventing such a great product. We recently moved to Arizona only to discover that the water here is loaded with chlorine and a highly toxic substance to which I'm highly sensitive. We also discovered that the amount of calcium in the water causes white scaling on every dish, glass, sink, shower and toilet. Since we had your system installed, I can actually do laundry that smells clean as opposed to smelling like I just dumped it in a swimming pool. I sleep on sheets that not make me cough for 3 days plus we don't have a white film on everything in the kitchen and bathroom. I can't even express what a difference your product has made. Thank you ECOsmarte |
2002 Dear ECOsmarte, This is one of the best investments I've ever made. My pool looks like this (picture) all year. Liner last years longer due to lack of chemicals. This pays off over and over again Linda Brodin |

August 11, 2002 We would like to tell you how much we have enjoyed our pool with the ECOsmarte system. In the seven years we have had the pool, it has always been so easy to maintain. The difference of swimming in it compared to other types of pools sanitized with chemical products is amazing. The Balack Family
May 20, 2002 Dear ECOsmarte, Enclosed you will find photographs of our ECOsmarte pool
conversion. They should stand as a testimonial to ECOsmarte customers. We were
apprehensive to try "another" pool product, but your system is easy to use and
saves us money. Better yet, it has solved our ten year battle with well water,
nitrates, filtration and chemicals. Sincerely,
Kelley Schweitz |

September 12, 2002 Dear ECOsmarte, Thank you so very much for all your patience with me regarding the ECOsmarte pool system. I am so exited about your products. Think about all the pollution we are reducing by not pouring tons of chemicals into our pools, thus preserving the health of our lives, our children's life, our wildlife and the future of our planet. Your integrity as a company really shines through. You are there when we need you. It is noticed and - surely - it is appreciated. Thanks again. It's been great discovering ECOsmarte pool system. Regards, Lisa Mitchell-Witchell PS: The OxyClean really worked well on my diving board.
Thank you for the advice. The pool party was a huge success! |
September 7, 2002 Dear ECOsmarte, We love our ECOsmarte Pool system because the water has a fresh natural smell, Our skin is never irritated by the pool water, and showering is unnecessary after swimming. We recommend this system to anyone who is interested in high quality swimming pool water. Sincerely,

December 7, 2001To Whom It May ConcernI have a residential size plaster pool (19x40), I have been using the ECOsmarte pool system for three years and find that the ability to maintain a Chlorine Free pool is an easy task. The overall quality of the water produced is far superior to that produced by a chlorine based system and all the users in my household feel as if they are swimming in what we affectionately call soft water. To say the least we do not miss the odor of chlorine and the affects on the body and the swimming suits. Richard C Zimmerman Paradise Valley, AZ |
July 29, 2001Dear EcoSmarte,We are really enjoying our chemical free pool. The water is crystal clear and much gentler on the skin. I don't worry about the girls spending hours in the pool since they are no longer exposed to all the chlorine. Thanks, Fronica Gonzalez

July 17, 2001Hi (Joe),And all the friendly people at ECOsmarte! Boy we sure wish you would have had your unit 26 years ago, when we put the pool in, we started with chlorine. The eyes would smart and sting add the suites and linner wuld fade. Then we went to baquacil, the damage to metal was bad and we are still felling those effects of that so-THANK YOU ECOSMARTE FOR A GREAT PRODUCT. Dave and Phyl Cummings
|
July 16, 2001To Whom It May Concern,Our family loves your product. First, there is so much less maintenance with your system than normal chlorine systems. Secondly, the Copper Ionization System doesn't affect your eyes as bad as a chlorine system does. Thirdly, our skin comes out feeling cleaner than if we were to swim in a chlorinated pool. Lastly, it's much cheaper to maintain than a chlorinated pool (so my dad says) Sincerely,
|
June 27, 2001Dear, Ecosmarte,I have been very please with our Ecosmarte over the 5 Years that I have happly owned it. It has benefited us in many ways. I guess you could say the money part of the deal is best of all, we spend very lettle money on it yearly. This in return gives us more money to do the things we love like vacationing. Speaking of which, when we are gone for weeks at a time we don't have to worry about our pool. We also like the idea that there's no chemicals this means no dry, itchy skin, No burning red eyes, and no smell. It is also a very heathy way to swim. As I'm sure you know chlorine is a cancer causing chemical. Thanks,
|
May 25, 2001Dear ECOsmarte,We are thrilled to finally discover an effective way to avoid chlorine 100% in our new pool. We recently moved to a house with a pool; we were excited about the recreational aspect but very concerned about the carcinogenic affects of chlorine. Now we can sleep peacefully knowing our children are protected by ECOsmarte. Thank you for providing a safe product! Sue Kulpinsky

May 13, 2001Attn: Larry,Because our ECOsmarte uses copper instead of chlorine I can swim without my allergies becoming bothersome. Most pool systems use chlorine or other types of chemicals to treat the water. However, when I swim in a chlorine pool, my nose drips, I'm sneezing, and usually my skin is very itchy and red. We have friends who installed the ECOsmarte, and boy! What a difference it made in the quality of their pool water! I no longer had to take a Kleenex box with me poolside. My skin felt soft and my daughter's hair did not feel like straw when she was finished swimming. My husband and I had decided that we would not install a pool without an ECOsmarte system. We've had a few problems, but using natural products has helped to clear them up. We try to let the system work itself through it's problems. Mary Bayens
|
May 1, 2001Dear ECOsmarte,I have been using an ECOsmarte pool system for almost 2 years now and as Larry promised, maintenance is so easy it's almost boring! We opened the pool for the season a month ago and so far the only thing I added is half a gallon of muratic acid. The water looks great, feels great and smells great! Just as impressive as your product is your staff. I have always been delighted at how knowledgeable and courteous they are and how willing they are to work through issues (even when it turns out the ECOsmarte has nothing to do with the problems!). Thanks for a healthy, sparkling pool, Sue Balmer

April 28, 2001ECOsmarteLarry, Thanks for your assistance on the phone a few minutes ago. I've called before and talked with someone else. I must say, everyone at ECOsmarte is always very helpful. I have really enjoyed having the system. It sure is nice not to have to worry about chemicals! I stopped by the pool store today and overheard several customers talking about how much work they had to do in order to get their water right for swimming. I just laughed and told them mine had been clean all winter without much effort. Hopefully, they'll wake up and buy a ECOsmarte system and be worry free. If anyone would like to call me and discuss the system, don't hesitate in giving them my number. William Jolle
|
July 21, 2000Dear ECOsmarte,We just LOVE your system for our pool! We have a fairly new liner & it is staying the pretty color that it is & not bleaching out from chemicals. My wife is extremely allergic to some chemicals & this prevents her from swimming in a lot of pools. With your system there is no problem. It is easy to maintain. We can go away and we don't have to worry about our pool turning bad. WE REALLY ENJOY THE FREEDOM OF NO CHEMICALS ! We'll tell all of Rockford about your Super System ! If anyone has any questions about your system, don't hesitate to give them our number & we will be happy to tell them about it. Sincerely, Tom & Vie Davig (via e-mail)
P.S. To whom it may concern; We were not paid to write about this
system!

June 12, 2000To whom it may concern:I am writing this letter to inform you that in 1997 we had an in-ground pool installed with your ECOsmarte system. At first, not knowing how to operate it, I was having some problems. I called Erik Nilsen, one of your consultants, and he talked me through the process and what I was to expect. Well, one week later my pool was crystal clear. It has remained that way ever since. As you stated - no chemicals and pure water. It is a pleasure to swim in our pool. I can't thank you enough for such a wonderful product! You may use my name if you care to as an endorsement for your ECOsystem. Sincerely, George Maros
|
May 3, 2000Dear ECOsmarte,I want to personally congratulate you on your great products. I live in Minnesota and we bought a home with a 30-yr old Baker concrete in-ground pool in 1991. I had never had a pool before so I had a lot to learn about maintenance. The pool had always been treated with chlorine. After the first year I switched to Bacquacil products on the advice of my eye doctor. He felt I was having reactions to the chlorine. The Bacquacil was better but very expensive. After a couple of years I jokingly asked my pool supply company if they had direct deposit so I could just have my paycheck sent to them. Luckily, I received a brochure from your company 3 years ago. Naturally, I was quite skeptical at first, this had all the appearance of a gimmick that was too good to be true. Well, I'm now convinced you make the best pool products available. Last year my only cost was for some inexpensive acid from K-mart and soda products from the grocery store. Thank you so much for providing products that make swimming more enjoyable (no foul smelling chlorine) and less costly and time consuming. Sincerely, Jerry Lindmeyer (via e-mail)

May 26, 2000ECOsmarte,I am writing this letter to you to brag on the performance of one of your dealers. I don't want to write a super long letter, but I felt the need to tell you some details for your understanding. My family and I moved from Chicago to Tucson 9 years ago. Shortly after we arrived we were greatly amazed at the difference of culture and now after 9 years we have come to the awareness that businesses here in Tucson move at a much slower pace and are for the most part dishonest when it comes to scheduling things. We were greatly pleased by the honesty, the sincerity, and quality of work of the Goodin family. What they said is what they did. When they said they would do it they did it. Now that we have the pool installed, any time we have questions they have the answers and provide us any service we need. As far as the pool is concerned, this one piece fiberglass pool, 35 ft. by 15 ft. with the ECOsmarte system has got to be the finest of pools in the world. The Goodin family gave us all the accurate information we need to keep our pool crystal clear and chemical free. Thank you for the ECOsmarte system, and thank you for working with the Goodin family. As far as I am concerned, if anybody here in Tucson calls you, direct them to the Goodins. A Very Pleased Customer, The Nedza Family

January 24, 2000Dear Joe and ECOsmarte,It isn't often that I write a testimonial letter for a product. My wife and I relocated from New Jersey to Chandler, Arizona in October 1999. After doing a lot of research, we selected our new home and decided we wanted a swimming pool. We found there were numerous qualified builders of pools and spas in our area. The company we selected built our pool and we were quite happy with our choice, except the builder led us to believe that chlorine or salt were the only choices for sanitizing the pool water. I wondered, with all the modern technology, is there any product on the market that wouldn't burn our eyes or dry out our skin? Using our computer, we found the answer to our question at http://www.ecosmarte.com. At this site it describes a 100% Chlorine Free Pool System with the additional benefit of being “Planet Friendly”. The ECOsmarte product consists of essentially an electronic box and electrode chamber and is easily installed on existing pools or new pools. Maintenance of a pool is straightforward and simple using the ECOsmarte system and the water is properly sanitized, crystal clear, and algae free. With the ECOsmarte pool system, maintenance is very simple. Basically, using a test kit, weekly we check two aspects of water chemistry; Potential Hydrogen (pH) which should have a reading between 6.8 and 7.2 and Copper Ions, that should read between 0.4 and 0.7. The ECOsmarte sanitizing system has proven to me that it is far superior to the other choices of chlorine or salt. My wife and I are happy that we didn't accept only the choices given by the pool builder, but instead purchased what we believe to be the best system on the market today, the ECOsmarte system, which we are very happy to be using in our pool. Sincerely, Peter J. Sperlazza

13 August 1999Dear ECOsmarte,In your "ECO TALK" newsletter you are offering free electrodes for testimonials and photos detailing experiences with your product. Here are some of those details and a photo of four of our grandchildren enjoying our "Chlorine Free" pool. Just about one year ago we installed a pool. Prior to that (almost 3 months), we had heard about ECOsmarte from a friend who was enjoying a "Chlorine Free" pool without resorting to Chlorine to keep the water "bacteria free." After reading and hearing about the benefits of your system, we had it installed in our new pool. Immediately, my grandchildren remarked about not having "burning" eyes as when swimming in a conventional Chlorine pool. One child, John, refused to go for swimming lessons because his eyes burned. Thanks to ECOsmarte, within the last year, John is now a pretty good swimmer. Knowing how important it is for kids to know how to swim, especially here in Arizona where 50% of the homes have pools, we are thrilled that now all our grandchildren are swimmers. I can highly recommend ECOsmarte as an alternative to Chlorine. ECOsmarte is on our list of "ways to stay healthy." Yours truly, Ralph Marchese
May 3, 1999 Dear Larry, This letter is in regards to our phone conversation on May 1, 1999. The ECOsmarte Pool System exceeds in performance what your advertisement states. We are very pleased with the systems minimal maintenance/care, and performance. The ECOsmarte Pool System has outperformed all expectations. After the stabilization, balancing, and training of the pool water, the system has remained remarkably stable. The ECOsmarte Pool System has solved our never-ending problems and headache with black, green and yellow algae! Chemical cost during the swimming season of 1998 dropped to the lowest cost ever, with a decrease almost 80 percent, over past swimming seasons. With regards to the aesthetics of our pool, the water is cleaner, brighter, and clearer than in the past. We, nor did our guests, ever experienced the adverse effects (i.e. burning eyes, scratching skin sensation, etc.) of chemicals from swimming in our pool this season. Our swimming apparel did not experience the usual bleaching of the colors from the chlorine that we have experienced in the past. I hope more people will try your system because there is nothing like it on the market today. Thank you for your technical support over the phone. Very Respectfully Yours, Ross R. Hill

April 20, 1999To Whom It May Concern,We are writing this letter to let you know how nice it is to swim in a chlorine free pool! Our daughter, age 4, is extremely allergic to chlorine and breaks out in a rash after swimming in chlorinated pools. There is no odor of chlorine, our skin doesn't dry out after swimming, and no more red eyes! Most of all, no head to toe rashes for our daughter! Thank you so much for making our summer swimming enjoyable here in the heat of Arizona! Sincerely, The Nardecchia Family

August 18, 1998Hello ECOsmarte!I called you a few weeks ago about a question I had with my copper test kit. Thanks for the help. It seems every time I am stuck, I call you guys and I get the information I need to resolve any issues I have. Thanks. For your information, I have had the ECOsmarte Pool System now for three summer seasons. I live in Maine where the summers are short, so it is very important to have the pool up and going fast. Your system sure makes it easy and quick to get started. This is what I had to do this spring to get started: #1 Vacuum the pool, by-passing the filter (I have a DE filter so I just open the discharge valve and vacuum the pool) #2 Place the DE in the Filter #3 Test for PH and Copper (here in Maine, the rainwater has a low PH, it tested at 6.8) #4 Start the ECOsmarte Pool System on Ionization for a few days to get the copper up and by then, the water was clear and ready for swimming. That is FANTASTIC! You know, I have not used any chemicals in over two years. NONE: no PH adjuster, no chlorine, no shock, NOTHING. This system is quickly paying for itself and the quality of the water is great! So thanks, for your product and your support staff. Larry Dube Winslow, Maine

Dear ECOsmarte,
I am writing to share with you my very positive experience with your product. I purchased your system in 1996, and thus have begun the third year of usage. Swimming has always been my favorite sport, but unfortunately, I am allergic to chlorine and very sensitive to Bromide. Since I purchased your product, I have been able to swim with no allergic reaction. An added benefit has been the low operating costs and above all, the absolutely crystal clear water.
Thank you for allowing me to enjoy my favorite pastime once again.
Sincerely, David G. Ray Reedsville, PA
October 2, 1997Dear ECOsmarte,I am very pleased to share my experience with the ECOsmarte swimming pool treatment system, which I installed three months ago. I had been struggling with my pool since I moved in to my current residence 15 months ago. This is the story of my pool. When I moved in, the house had been vacant for several months and the pool experienced a major algae bloom. I spent the next month dealing with this--large amounts of chlorine shock treatment plus algaecide and flocculent. I even drained one half of the pool volume and refilled it in an attempt to improve water clarity. Please note that I have a covered and enclosed pool, and in the summertime, with green house effect, the pool house temperature is typically in excess of 100 degrees F, and the pool water temperature is in the mid to upper 80's. This is an ideal environment for algae and bacterial growth. After several weeks, I finally achieved acceptable water quality for swimming. This required frequent chlorination, several pounds of shock treatment every three days coupled with chlorine tablets in the floater. In addition copper algaecide was added frequently. I also replaced the sand in my filter, which I would run 12 hours a day. I assumed the slight residual water turbidity was a consequence of the thermal stimulus for microbiologic growth coupled with the relatively high porosity of my sand filter. ECOsmarte has completely changed the quality of my pool. I had the system installed on a trial basis by my neighbor Joel Cepeda, whose crystal clear outdoor pool has been the envy of the neighborhood. I knew that my indoor pool, with greenhouse temperature effect would be a major challenge for the ECOsmarte system and I remained skeptical that it would work. To make a long story short, within 2 days of installing the system my pool was crystal clear and chlorine free. I could visualize the detailed texture of the pool bottom for the first time! I did not have the ECOsmarte system tied in to the automatic timer initially and operated it manually each day. I then left town for a one week vacation in late August, leaving the system off Imagine my dismay when I returned home to discover a major algae bloom of the same intensity as when I first moved into the house. I immediately turned on the ECOsmarte system and ran it continuously for 24 hours. The pool was clear the following day. Needless to say, I finalized my purchase of the system on the spot. I tied the system into the timer, and it only requires operation 6 hours a day (as compared to the 12 hours per day pre ECOsmarte) and I have not added any chemical oxidants or algaecide for two months. I simply keep the water pH in the neutral range and ECOsmarte does the rest. The water quality is absolutely superb. I am very excited about this product, which I consider to be a breakthrough technology. I can confidently recommend this system to anyone without reservation. Thanks ECOsmarte. Ray A. Wagner, M.D.

December 28, 1998Hey Big RayNot once this year did I have to put out $100, $120 for drums of chlorine! Not once this year did I have to have back surgery from wrestling those 80# drums outta my trunk! Not once did I pull any muscles or run over my toes rolling that behemoth to storage! Not once this year did wind blow chlorine all over the deck, the flowers! And the six weeks I was in the hospital, the water stayed as pristine clear & blue as if you Yourself had been taking care of it. The system is so simple, even my woman handled it. Only problem: my friends, when they come over, when they drop by for a burger & a dip, how do I keep their teen aged daughters from tossing their tops to go topless for the extra tanning?! Your grateful friend, Errett Bristor

August 2, 1999Joe,My pool has never been this easy to take care of. I don't even add the pH down Joe told me I would need when I bought your system. There is one more thing I would like to report. I have been turning my pool off 3 to 4 days per week and its been crystal clean since last spring when we installed it. We will have made the money back in less than 3 seasons, not to mention saving time. Sincerely, Bob Katarik
P.S. We have a 28 year old cement pool with a sand filter. I'll buy your sand filter media next spring. |
July 23, 1999Dear EcoSmarteWe have had out copper ion pool system in operation now for one year and just love it. As you know, keeping a pool pure and clean in South Florida can be a task but with the combination of a turbo cleaning system with your purifier makes it an easy task. Thank you. I would like to order the $99.00 early bird special you offered in the recent newsletter. While our plates are still good for some time, I would like to have a spare set on hand. Enclosed is a check for $99.00. Thanks again for a great product. Sincerely, Donald C. Dietz

October 29, 1996Dear ECOsmarte,I have been using ECOsmarte water conditioning systems for my household water and for my swimming pool for four months now and would like to report back to you that I am extremely pleased with both systems. My household water is supplied from a well and has moderately hard water. I have had to use a conventional water softener for the last fifteen years, constantly lugging heavy bags of salt to my basement to keep the unit operating. Even with the water softener, my sinks, faucets, and water heater had calcium build-up to the point where two of my toilets filled extremely slow. Within one month after installing the ECOsmarte system in my home, my toilets began filling normally and the scale on the faucets and shower heads disappeared. The bonus was the water felt softer. It was like magic. As for the pool system, having a chlorine free pool is amazing. My wife has very sensitive eyes and was constantly irritated by the chlorine. Since installing the ECOsmarte system, my maintenance costs have dropped to almost nothing. I still go to the pool every morning thinking there is something I must do. It's hard to break old habits. Please use my name as a reference for your products. You've got a winner! Sincerely, Michael Amato
