Chlorine Genie is one of the hottest pool products of 2022. Imagine swimming in water that has been softened, descaled, pH balanced and sanitized without the use of any potentially harmful chemicals, toxic additives, corrosive salt water or dangerous irritants.
Get the perfect water for your pool with Chlorine Genie. The Chlorine Genie is a standalone device that interfaces with your existing pumps, filters and heaters. This is one of the four must-have items for any pool.
The electrolytic cells in the patented Chlorine Genie are immersed in a saline water softener solution, producing the chlorine gas your pool needs. To soften the water, reverse osmosis and water purification systems are integrated into the unit. The electrolytic cell separates the salt and ions in the water, producing chlorine, sodium, hydrogen and oxygen. Chlorine ions produce pure chlorine, which is then diluted with water and pumped into the pool. To adjust the pH of a pool, sodium combines with hydrogen and oxygen in the water.

Pool balancing has never been easier with the PH-50. We all know that maintaining the right pH and alkalinity can be like balancing on a tightrope, but no more!

The PH-50 comes standard with a single cylinder regulator assembly. By selecting a double or triple regulator from the drop-down list, you can increase your CO2 storage capacity by using a larger tank or multiple tanks.

The Jandy® TruDose Chemistry Controller keeps the pool water balanced even between service visits. TruDose uses advanced pH and ORP measurement technology to continuously monitor the water level as it flows through the pool pipes, providing a cleaner, safer and more comfortable pool experience.
TruDose is easy to program and install, with a large LED indicator that comes pre-installed and plugs into a standard GFCI outlet.
TruDose includes a built-in flow switch to ensure that chemicals are only dispensed when water is flowing through the system. TruDose stops dosing but continues to monitor pH and ORP levels after reaching the set point.
Between service visits, the chemical composition of the water remains in balance. As water flows through the pool pipes, TruDose detects the pH and ORP readings, delivers a dose of acid to lower the pH, and activates the salt chlorinator to produce the chlorine needed to maintain a constant level for ideal pool water balance.
There is no need to change the chlorine output of your Jandy AquaPure® salt chlorinator because TruDose will tell your chlorinator when it needs to produce chlorine and when there is enough chlorine in the pool.
The Jandy VersaTemp heating/cooling pump features SoundShieldTM technology to ensure your pool or spa is always at the perfect temperature, whether you like it hot or cold, and is quieter than traditional heat pumps (compared to previous Jandy models).

In addition, it can be used to remove heat from pools in very hot weather. Plus, it has two thermostats so you can keep your pool and spa at the perfect temperature. The LCD control panel on the VersaTemp controller makes temperature adjustment easy, and the iAquaLink® app works with any AquaLink pool automation system, making it easy to keep your pool warm wherever you are.
