Nothing short of amazing!
We use our Magnapool atleast 5 times a week and everytime without fail, we get in the water and it feels instantly soothing. The water feels soft to touch, and when out of the pool you feel refreshed. Absolutely love our decision to go with a Magnapool.

best decision made this year
Converting from Chlorine to MagnaPool was one of the best decision's I have made this year :)
The clarity of water is noticed by every person who sees the pool
The kids love if because they feel the water is 'softer'
Also the ongoing maintenance is so easy, and the timers and other functions are great
Thank you Magna Pool

Beautiful clear water
We've used our pool almost daily through summer and it's always had fantastic water clarity and is easy on our kids skin. Glad we made the choice to use a Magnapool

Mineral pool | Easy Maintenance | Low annual cost | Love our Magnapool
Our pool is used by a variety of children from all over the neighbourhood. They swim in our pool for hours and don’t show any signs of chlorine effects given through standard chlorinated systems. One family friend with eczema uses your pool as their own salt water chlorinated use needs to be monitored and limited. Besides all the positive reasons above, the annual cost of keeping our pool crystal clear is less than half of all our friends using salt water or chlorine options. We spend on average $40 per month (one 10kg bag) on our 7mtr x 3mtr pool. Approx 27000 litres. We don’t use anything else, once you have the hours of operation set and strength of system set it’s pretty much self sufficient !

Faulty sensors
Terrible product. The sensors have failed/broken 3 times in a month. Very frustrated and not happy. Have had a techiciam from Zodiac out three times and it keeps on failing... The only way you know it's not working is to manually test it regularly but this defeats the purpose of getting it in the first place. Great system in theory if it works.... But when it doesn't its a compete waste of money

Read moreok or at least better because now at least it is chlorinating the pool, the old system was not even producing chlorine. I'm still getting an error message that the PH Dosing is not working.....and the PH range was out of whack when I did a manual test.....my concern with this product is that you have to trust the readings on the system and if they are out there is no way to know aapart from getting the water tested and I really don't want to keep doing this I want to rely on hte system i paid so much money for.....and if the system is not operating correctly, them it will also over or under chlorinate, depending on what the sensors are telling the system.....is that correct or am i way off?????.....as i said, so far so good...but I'm concerned about this product and I want to like it....but I'm not assured as yet.Hi Mick,
Thanks for your inquiry. We definitely recommend that you do regular water tests as a crucial maintenance routine. ...
Read moreAs far as the system goes, like all systems in the market, it requires the sensors to be calibrated, it requires the acid bottle to be kept up with acid. Because if the acid bottle runs out and you haven't kept an eye on it then its going to flag a pH error, because its not feeding any acid. If the pH and the cyanuric acid are kept within limits, usually the ORP sensor performs better than any other product on the market. The important thing to note is that you need to interact with the system, like everything else on the market you still need to provide upkeep and monitor to make sure it's running properly. Basics such as: keep ALK in range, ensure there is always plenty of acid in the bottle, keep CYA under 30ppm, calibrate sensors every 3-6months. Get water test by pool shop every 2-3 weeks.

After having our magnapool here in NZ for 10 years our cell has finally stopped working. We love the feel of our pool which I call the fountain of youth. My pool shop recommends to replace the control and cell for some reason, should I have to do this or just the cell.

Magna pool
We have had our pool less than 6 months. We have had our unit replaced once already. Our second unit is also faulty. Not a great product. All of these units were supposedly recalled???

Love the mineral water to swim in but it is destroying the Gel coat on our pool. The pool is only 2 years old
The water looks, tastes lovely, but just been told we should be using liquid instead of crystals nobody has told us this before. Apparently there have been tests done in Victoria by a Gel coat company and they are recommending liquid minerals.
This doesn't help us after 2 years of doing what the installer advised. Nobody knows where to get 'liquid minerals' from & we have never been told this before. We have only used the Magna minerals as these were used in the handover of our new pool.
We have a 2 year old pool that looks worse than our previous one that was 30 years old. Please help us, we are very disappointed & looking to pursue this further if need be.
Hi Jan,
Could you please paste your review into an email and send it to productsupport.au@fluidra.com? We'll see how we can help....

Have you tried emailing us at productsupport.au@fluidra.com? MagnaPool does not destroy gel coating on pools. We believe you're receiving incorrect information and we'd like to lend a helping hand....

100 times better than a liquid chlorine pool
I've had the magnapool with magnesium for just over a month and I swim in it every day. The water is so much clearer and silkier to swim in than the previous liquid chlorine set up. Our local pool company installed it and comes once a month to check chemicals and do any top-ups, so apart from cleaning the leaves out of the creepy-crawly basket, there is nothing to do but enjoy the pool. I hated having to test the water all the time and add liquid chlorine, so this is very easy-care and pleasant to own. It might be my imagination, but I think my...
Read more skin is actually softer as well, which is lovely. I can't recommend this highly enough. I know others have said the hydroxinator will only last 3 years, but even if mine does I'll still be happy with the use I've had out of it. I feel like I have a Health Spa in my own backyard!Just updating here. I've had the magnapool for 12 months and have used 8 bags of magnapool minerals in that time ($39.50 a bag) which seems very inexpensive to me to have such a luxurious feel to the ...

Questions & Answers
Hi
I’ve just had an hydroxinator iq installed with a new magna pool and it was working fine but now for some reason the clock resets itself to 00.00 each day.
I now have to reset the clock to the correct time each day which is very annoying!
Kind regards
Richard
I recently had my magnapool water tested at a local pool shop, they told me i needed to add abag of slt to the pool. I have never been told to do this before & when i questioned him he said maybe just add a bag of minerals instead.
Does a magna pool ever require salt to added
Hi Michelle,
Thanks for your inquiry. Please reach out to our LIVE CHAT for further troubleshooting assistance. ...
Read moreWe can be reached at the live chat located on our website during 9am-5pm Mon to Fri: https://www.magnapool.com/ Regards, Fluidra SupportI have never been told to add salt, I’d get a second opinion or look up zodiacs help line and call them, sounds like a pool shop who has no idea what Magnapool is. The magnapool compound contains salt and magnesium sounds like bad advice to me
Thanks for you response, I think I need a new pool shop
I have owned a magna pool for 11 years and I can't stop the controls from beeping saying add more mineral. It does not need more mineral everything is good. The pool shop said they do have a total hours and you need to reset this. Do you know how to reset hours for this please.

Read mores). Unfortunately we don't use or supply any of their equipment, but you may be able to find info online to fix the issue. Our recommendation would be to upgrade to a new Hydroxinator, that is supported by us and with spare parts readily available for future-proofing and peace of mind: https://www.magnapool.com/product/hydroxinator-iq.
