A pool ionizer basically releases copper and/or other metals into the pool to kill bacteria and algae. I have read that if the copper levels get too high, it can stain a pool and change hair color, much like very high concentrations of chlorine and the bleaching effect. I do not have an ionizer but have seen hair color changes when I have poured a lot of copper based algaecide into my pool. So basically I think you just have to keep the ions at the recommended levels.

How do different color liners affect blueness of pool water?

The pool water draws its color from the liner. If you buy a white liner, then the pool water will not be blue. If you use a light blue liner, then the pool will be light blue. In my opinion, the best liner is a darker blue liner with ripples on it. Your pool will look gorgeous and inviting and the ripple effect makes it difficult to see any dirt in your pool. A solid color liner lets you see everything, which isn't always pretty.
