What is Copper Silver Ionization?

Copper silver ionization is a non-chemical water treatment technology regarded as the most clinically effective prevention and remediation solution for Legionella, the bacteria responsible for Legionnaires' disease (Legionellosis). During this treatment, ions are systematically introduced into the water using a byproduct-free method to rid plumbing infrastructure of Legionella bacteria and other water-borne pathogens.

The greatest benefit of copper or copper/silver ionization is that the ions remain in the water providing a residual protection. The provide long-term, nontoxic purification and prevent against recontamination. Unlike most of types of sanitizers, the copper and silver ions remain in the water until they flocculate, or form masses with the algae and bacteria and then become large enough to be removed by the filtering equipment. When the “used” copper and silver ions are removed, the microprocessor control box is always producing new ions to continuously sanitize the water.

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 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.
  • 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.

  • HOW DOES COPPER SILVER IONIZATION WORK?
    The ions produced by the LiquiTech ionization process are cationic, surface-active, and a potent biocide. The treatment action is attributable to the positively charged copper and silver ions forming electrostatic bonds with negatively charged sites on microorganism cell walls. These electrostatic bonds create stresses that lead to distorted cell wall permeability, disrupting the intake of life-sustaining nutrients, and ultimately leading to cell lysis. Bacteria are killed, rather than merely suppressed as is the case with alternative Legionella treatment methods. The accurate dose-rate control system maintains precise ion levels, providing residual protection and prevention of recontamination.
  • Why Copper Silver Ionization?
    Copper silver ionization is the most effective technology for systemic disinfection of Legionella in potable water systems. In field evaluations, this technology has yielded the best results over a wide range of water conditions and temperatures, and is backed by more than 100 independent research studies. CSI introduces disinfectant ions to travel throughout the plumbing infrastructure and attack Legionella living downstream, embedded in various parts of the plumbing distribution system. CSI 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.
  • No harmful by-products, eco-friendly, and safe
    Copper silver ionization is the safest and most eco-friendly solution to water protection. Comparatively, this method requires no chemicals, whereas hyperchlorination requires extensive dosage measurements. Hyperchlorination functions by injecting high doses of chlorine to disinfect a water system. However, research shows that approximately 70% of chlorine dioxide degrades in hot water. Therefore, you’d need to add a high concentration of 2 to 4 ppm of chlorine to sustain efficacy. Maintaining such high concentration is difficult and creates by-products which proven to be carcinogenic. During copper silver ionization, copper and silver are added into the water supply at doses of approximately 0.3-0.4 ppm, thereby preventing harmful by-products, carcinogenic risks, and negative health-related side effects.
  • No corrosive effects
    Most chemical solutions are proven to be corrosive to your plumbing infrastructure in the long-term, causing pinhole leaks and other costly issues that require equipment replacements. Disinfection imposes a high voltage, which may damage the lids and pumps in a system. A common misconception about copper silver ionization is that the copper ions have corrosive effects. This is simply not the case as proven by industry data time and time again (add link to data). After 25 years of successful installations, copper silver ionization has not once caused any corrosion issues. Copper silver ionization keeps the plumbing intact to ensure longevity in the life-span of your plumbing.
