Bringing water back to life
At AIS Water, we have taken the time to step back and revisit who we are, and more importantly, why we are here. That valuable work has led us to a new articulation of our vision - AIS Water is saving and enhancing life through greater access to water.
This expanded ‘reason for being’ has brought us to a deeper understanding of our planet’s most precious resource and the vital role it plays in sustaining and enriching life. Accordingly, we have strengthened our resolve to play a lead role globally in providing unique solutions for safer water disinfection and introducing breakthrough thinking to bring every drop of water treated back to its most harmonious ‘live’ state.
But we haven’t stopped there.
Conventional chlorine dosing requires swimming pool water to be dumped or continuously diluted. This is completely unacceptable practice that is wasting millions of gallons of water globally each year.
AIS Water’s unrivalled technology completely eliminates water wastage and can help to alleviate the extreme water shortages that are diminishing life and environments in many countries.
We are passionate about saving and enhancing life through greater access to water. While we have made significant improvements in our 25+ year history of doing just that, rest assured, we have only just begun.

AIS Water
True
Mastery
We are in the business of consistently exceeding expectations and have been doing that with safer water disinfection for over 25 years, in fact, that’s all that we do. This laser focus has brought about the recognition as global leaders in our field as well as countless international and Australian national awards.
Saving
Water
AIS Water’s technology demonstrated vastly superior performance when tested with liquid and granular chlorination methods in a comprehensive university study.
We are able to save trillions of gallons of water from being wasted from pools every day across the planet. We can say with total confidence that our technology will also preserve our client’s financial assets.
AIS Water should be your first choice for simpler, safer and smarter water disinfection.
"During the course of our research, when we assessed the data and converted it back to annual water use, we found that a pool using granular or liquid chlorine for water disinfection would need to be dumping pool water at least once a year to stay within the recommended guidelines for total dissolved solids.
We found AIS Water’s saltwater chlorination technology was a far superior method to keep water chemistry stable with all monitored parameters in 6 pools over a 6 month period.
A long course 50m (164 ft pool) using granular chlorine, converted to AIS’ technology would eliminate at least 1.6 million litres (422,675 gallons) of water use and save up to AUD $40,000 annually in water rates.
On an environmental note, saving that amount of water is a huge saving for our water thirsty planet."

SAFETY
Pool water treated by our inline chlorine generators nurtures a clean and bacteria-free environment. We have eliminated the severe risks of chlorine deliveries, bulk chlorine storage facilities and hefty OH&S and maintenance costs to further enhance the safety of people, equipment and the environment.
Providing
Clarity
We actively enhance the joy of immersion in water by protecting people with our advanced technology. Total dissolved solids (TDS) and water hardness levels are more stable resulting in vastly clearer, bacteria free water.
Air and water quality are also significantly improved due to our ability to greatly decrease chloramines. Chloramines are what causes irritation of the mucous membranes and respiratory systems, red and stinging eyes and the unpleasant ‘chlorine’ odor present in poorly disinfected swimming pool environments.
Ensuring
Trust
Designed and manufactured in Australia, our products meet or exceed the highest standards of reliability and durability. Genuine AIS Water Anodes™ ensures the longevity and optimal performance of each electrolytic cell. For over 25 years we have guaranteed total peace of mind with product function, safety, warranty programs, training and support.
Greater
Versatility
Our unique technology is designed to enhance both salt and freshwater pool environments. We can easily handle multi-million gallon water bodies with salinity levels from 950ppm (freshwater) to 35,000ppm (seawater) and chlorine outputs from 0.176oz to 11lb per hour.
Embracing
Family
While we are an Australian family-owned and operated business, our definition of family extends far beyond the factory walls. Through continual innovation, treating each other with respect, communicating and collaborating effectively and working toward common goals we enhance the lives of every member of our immediate and extended family.
Life
Enhancement
The endangerment and misuse of Earth’s rich resources is a recurring theme in our existence, now more than ever before.
We believe it’s everyone’s responsibility to form part of the solution - to help preserve the health and wellbeing of our planet, our resources and our people. We accept this responsibility and are actively playing our role.
AIS Water’s technology is enhancing life worldwide with solutions for every application including FINA Competition pools, municipal pools, aquatic centres, swim schools, hotel and resort pools, water theme parks and more.
World Leading
Inline chlorine generation via electrolysis, pioneered by AIS Water worldwide, is vastly superior to granular or liquid conventional chlorine dosing.
Today, there are only two methods for providing a chlorine residual:
- Conventional chlorine dosing, which is costly and potentially hazardous to life and environments.
- Inline chlorine generation via electrolysis, which is cost-effective, safe and environmentally friendlier.
Inline Chlorine Generation via Electrolysis
In a process known as electrolysis, water passes through an electrolytic cell converting minerals and salts to sodium hypochlorite (commonly known as liquid chlorine). The chlorine is then distributed directly into the pool water, keeping it clear and bacteria free.
Conventional Chlorine Dosing
Conventionally, pools disinfected by dosing liquid, granular or gaseous chlorine are known as ‘chlorinated swimming pools’.
The need to store and handle chlorine attracts significant hidden costs and risks, which over the medium to long term are cost prohibitive.
These include Occupational Health and Safety (OH&S) compliance, the need for Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), increased staff training, and ongoing water dumping and replenishment, with the water then needing to be heated and treated.
Then there’s the much greater cost of potential injury or loss of life.
A conventionally chlorinated swimming pool is not only a poor economic decision, it greatly diminishes life and environments.

Jon Herbert
Operations Manager
The Pool Man, Cairns
“The EcoLine® chlorinators we have here are trouble free and low maintenance.
They are very good for the environment. There is a lot of rain here in the wet season, but with AIS’ technology we add bags of salt, rather than pallets, which means we are in and out of the pool area more quickly, with less disruption to hotel guests.
We’ve had good reports about the water quality and less salt in the pool means a less corrosive environment for the pool equipment and surrounds.”
Nathan Gordon
Manager, USC Sport
University of the Sunshine Coast
“As you might expect in a state of the art training facility like ours we focus strongly on efficiency. We like the way our EcoLine® water disinfection unit just gets the job done with minimal dials and buttons to operate and with minimal facility manager involvement.
The quality of the water is second to none, in fact, we’ve been told we have the best tasting pool water in the world. One of the international swimming coaches inspected our facility in the lead up to the Commonwealth Games. He said that the pool water was the best he’d ever come across.”
