You have just confirmed what I have said here previously for the submerged electrode HVAC system. Small area produces higher current density, and higher voltage, producing higher ppm. We use about 1/10" of #14 wire which is much higher voltage and current density than what you have tried though. Give it another try with about 1/10 of the electrode exposed in the water.
