THE TECHNOLOGY
The Natural Mineral Purification System utilizes an advanced electrolytic process which emits small amounts of Copper ions into water systems for the purpose of controlling micro-organisms and algae while avoiding the hazards of high level chemical dosing. From the backyard pool to the process cooling tower, the Natural Mineral Purification System can help save 60-90% on overall water treatment chemical expenditures. The system has a wide range of applications including food processing, marine parks, decorative fountains, cooling towers, breweries, and grey water treatment. This method of water treatment is environmentally safe, user friendly and cost effective.
The system operates automatically in conjunction with the circulation system of a pool, spa, or cooling tower. A flow cell houses specially formulated virgin Copper alloy electrodes that deplete at a designated rate into the water that is to be treated. A long term disinfecting residual is then maintained by the system which is not depleted by heat or sunlight. Unlike chlorine, Copper does not degrade rapidly under those conditions. The electrode emissions created by the Natural Mineral Purification process are surface active, micro-biocidal and a potent algaecide. The disinfecting action is attributable to the positive charged Copper ions which form electrostatic bonds with negatively charged sites on the cell wall of micro organisms.
RESIDUAL SANITIZER
It has been field and laboratory proven that when mineral purification is used in conjunction with low levels of free chlorine, typically .2-.4 ppm (local health department regulations may vary); there is a synergistic effect (Applied and Environmental Microbiology, Dec. 1989, p. 3045-3050). The maximum synergistic effect was Copper in the presence of .3 ppm free available chlorine. At this dose, 1,000 times more bacteria were killed after 2.5 minutes in the ionized water than the water treated with chlorine alone.

Our jets come directly from the jet manufacturers and because the same jets can be used by several different spa manufacturers at any given time, the jets are not listed by the name of the spa. In order to find out what jet you need, there are some pieces of information you need to gather.
First you need to know the size of the hole in the tub where the jet is mounted. With this information you can go on the website, scroll down to Jets and then pick the group of jets and parts that includes your hole size.
You can scroll through the pictures of the jets and look for the jet that looks the most like yours. There may be several or only one. The jets we have do not have the spa manufacturers logo on the face like yours may and the outer ring maybe somewhat different, since some spa manufacturers request special looks.
The most important part is to look at the back of the jet. The back of the jet must match the jet that you have. This is the part that is most important to making the fit. If it does not match. It is probably not your jet.
Next measure the face of the jet that you have and see that it matches the face of the jet that you have. Many of the jets list two different face sizes. If the jet lists two sizes but the one you shows in only one give a call, you may be able to get the one you want by special order. (Be advised special orders are not returnable.) Most times the smaller face will still work. Sometimes, if the area that the jet sits is flat, the larger face will fit.
There are exploded diagrams for many of the jets that can help you in determining your correct jet. Use them whenever you can.
If you still have problems, you can send us pictures of the old jet. Make sure that you include dimensions. It helps to have a ruler next to the jet, just do not cover the jet unless you include an additional picture without the ruler. You should have pictures of both the back and front of the jet. (Look at the website for examples.) More pictures are always better than too few. We will then see if we can match the jet that you have.
There are some jets that are made exclusively for the spa manufacturer and are priortory to them. Those you will need to by directly from the spa manufacturer.
If your tub is several years old the jets may no longer be available.
We here at SimplePoolAndSpaRepair.com know that fixing something yourself isn't always easy. That's why we've started posting information on products and tips to help you maintain and repair your pool, spa or hot tub.
If you have questions that you can't find an answer to, email me at harveyallparts@gmail.com. I may answer it here, respond directly or I may answer it on my YouTube videos.
We have many years of experience as a pool and spa repair technician and have contacts with many distributors and manufacturers to answer your tough questions!
And hopefully along the way we'll have a lot of fun and make a lot of new friends. So email those questions today!
