You can achieve great results but please read about orp as it can and is a complicated value

Not sure what more I can add to this.

We use ozone and its highly effective at controlling organics. We connect it directly to our Vertex Alpha skimmer with an air dryer before the ozone.

We also use the Milwaukee ORP controller to maintain a value of 415-425.
