Mechanical / Electrical Sanitising for the Domestic Swimming Pool Market

Ozone (OO3) is used as a back up to chemical compound prime effectivity. In all Domestic Application Ozone is purely introduced from one Injection Point.  Only from multi port base injection points will work effectively. One single injection point is very suspect and will not support the max allowed by the Health & Safety 0.9 Grams per Mlt.

The application of UV suffers from the self same problem with the single injection outlet.

What are Hot Tubs?

A circular wooden casing that is usually redwood and is surface mounted on a strengthened paved base with relative ’spa type’ equipment which is housed in matching clading as the circular tub.

Great for Outdoor Use, popular in Gardens and Patios in domestic properties.

Very popular with Wooden Decking surrounds which add value to your property, where swimming pools these days seem to not.

Remember a Hot Tub contains captivated water fed through both filter & pump and should be dumped every 2 to 3 weeks & cleaned out. Do not keep the same water for 3 months.

What is a Domestic Whirlpool & Jetted Bath?

Purely a drain and fill house hold unit. Available as fully plumbed unit or supplied as a DIY kit form for own sourced baths. 

You simply fill the bath from a hot water supply, fill to 250 galls (55m3) Max. Start the bath circulation pump from a ceiling mounted pull down start switch, press on/off button on bath to keep surroud to activate the circulation pump. Equally an installed bath light and support bath heater to keep up the heat will have their own on/off buttons. The air venturi control will increase bubble effect by simply turning the head of the air inlet.

After your bath leave the bath pump running for some 4-5 minutes, step out of the bath and with dry hands apply your sanitising compound direct to the water surface. Using the ceiling mounted pump switch off pump and pull out the bath plug to dump water to waste.

You use some 25-50 grams of chlorine to disinfect the lines before dumping. Because Chlorine has seriously offensive odours you can use Surex OO2 Oxysure which is supplied in a 1 1/2kg child lock container for safety reasons. Surex OO2 Oxysure provides No Smell, No Taste and no Chlorine related effects such as Dry Skin, Buring eyes, Surex OO2 is Environmentally Friendly.

Using the blue scoop spoon supplied inside the container will give you some 70-75 treatments. Always follow directions on container.
