Abstract:
1. An apparatus for purifying the water in a spa, jetted tub or pool comprising: an ozone generator sized and adapted to purify the water in a spa, jetted tub or pool, the ozone generator including a chip electrode assembly adapted to produce ozone from air using an electric discharge applied by a first electrode located on an outer surface of a first side of said chip electrode assembly and a second electrode located on an outer surface of a second side of said chip electrode assembly; wherein an interior surface of said first side and an interior surface of said second side oppose each other across a discharge chamber, wherein interior surfaces of said discharge chamber are comprised substantially entirely of a dielectric material selected from the group consisting of an alumina-based ceramic, a zirconium-based ceramic, a titanium-based ceramic, a mica-containing material, and a corrosion resistant polymer; and a transfer assembly cooperating with said ozone generator to pass ozone produced by the ozone generator to the water in the spa, jetted tub or pool.
