EWS and Cannon Beach Wave Park
A few years ago, Exceptional Water Systems was asked to design a complete pump room system using our Ultra-Fine Bubble (UFB) technology for a one-of-a-kind, upcoming wave park in Mesa, Arizona. The park holds 2.8 million gallons of water, and the goal was to maintain crystal-clear water while keeping chlorine levels as low as 0.5 ppm. Traditional water treatment methods would have struggled to manage such a large body of water without heavy chemical use, but UFB technology allowed us to meet the challenge — and exceed expectations.
The Power of Ultra-Fine Bubbles and Ozone
UFBs measure smaller than 100 nanometers, making them extraordinarily effective at oxidation and sanitation. The bubbles stay suspended in the water for long periods, releasing oxygen and triggering powerful chemical reactions. At the heart of our system is ultra-fine ozone, which on its own can be 20 to 3,000 times stronger than chlorine. These ozone-infused UFBs achieve 100% efficiency, creating a level of sanitation that far surpasses conventional chemical treatments.
One remarkable property of UFBs is that they implode rather than explode. This implosion generates hydroxyl radicals — one of the most powerful sanitizers on the planet. As a result, the water benefits from three natural yet highly effective layers of oxidation: Ultra-fine ozone bubbles, ultra-fine oxygen bubbles, and hydroxyl radicals.
Record-Setting Performance Without Chlorine
Upon startup, we achieved an impressive ORP (Oxidation-Reduction Potential) reading of 890 — all without using a single drop of chlorine. ORP is a critical measure of water sanitation, and most pools and water parks can only dream of reaching such high levels, even with elevated chlorine doses. This demonstrates the unmatched power of UFB technology in creating crystal-clear, safe, and healthy water while minimizing chemical use.
A Commitment to Health, Safety, and Sustainability
The Cannon Beach wave park project embodies Exceptional Water Systems’ mission: to deliver the highest water quality while protecting the environment and promoting health and wellness. By drastically reducing the need for chemicals, we help prevent harmful byproducts from entering sewer systems, wastewater treatment facilities, and our precious aquifers. This approach not only ensures a safe and pleasant experience for bathers but also safeguards the environment for future generations.
Incorporating UFB and ultra-fine ozone technology has allowed us to set new standards for water treatment. Our focus remains on providing the cleanest, safest, and healthiest water with minimal chemical interference, ensuring the best possible experience for users. As we continue to innovate, Exceptional Water Systems is proud to lead the way toward a cleaner, more sustainable future in water management as well as continue to strive to provide “Healthy Water for Humanity”… no exceptions!
