WHAT
ARE THE FACTS ABOUT SWIMMING POOLS.
1.
Chlorine reacts with
organic waste and forms a large number of highly toxic chloro-organic
compounds, also referred to as "combined chlorine". These are well known
carcinogens, and are also very poisonous to marine life. In swimming pools they accumulate in very high concentrations. Red eyes
and rashes are the most instant and obvious effects, and should be
considered signals of a much more serious risk to human health. Pools
usually use makeup water to dilute these dangerous compounds. As a result,
an equal amount of pool water must be released into the environment.
-
Doesn't
chlorine work just as well?
Ozone operates according the principle of oxidation. Ozone is faster than
chlorine at killing bacteria because chlorine needs to diffuse through the
cell wall and disrupt the bacteria's metabolism. Ozone, however, rips open
the cell wall from the outside, causing the cell's contents to fall apart.
This process is called cell lysing. With ozone, after destruction of the
cell, all that is left is carbon dioxide, cell debris and water. As the
ozone oxidizes material, it gets used up. Once it has done its job of
oxidation, ozone reverts back to oxygen (O2). This additional oxygen in
the water makes it taste good, smell good and gives it a sparkle. There
are no toxic or hazardous byproducts.

What's
wrong with using Chlorine?
Chlorine reacts with organic waste and forms a large number of highly
toxic chloro-organic compounds, also referred to as "combined chlorine".
These are well known carcinogens, and are also very poisonous to marine
life. In swimming pools they accumulate in very high concentrations. Red
eyes and rashes are the most instant and obvious effects. Some chlorine
by-products have been linked to higher incidences of asthma, lung damage,
stillbirths, miscarriages and bladder cancer, according to credible
research conducted in the U.S., Canada, Norway, Australia and Belgium. One
researcher noted that 10-year-old children spending an average of 1.8
hours per week in a swimming pool environment suffered lung damage she
would expect to see in an adult smoker.
2.
On average, the human
body will absorb about half a litre of pool water every hour!
The best pools have water quality compliant with the standards for
drinking water supply.
3.
There are more than 30,000 Public swimming pools in Europe treated
with ozone.
4.
Bromine, ozone and hydrogen peroxide have been used successfully in
the past with or without chlorine residual. Ozone is the strongest and
most convenient disinfectant of all and its stability in water is most
convenient.
5.
There are many advantages of treating pool water with ozone:
-
Filtration support. Ozone
assists flocculation of organic waste materials, thus
enhancing
the effectiveness of
sand filters.
-
Water purification. Ozone
directly
decomposes organic waste
by oxidation.
-
Water sanitation. Properly
dissolved ozone residual of 0.05 or higher assures
100% kill of all
bacteria, viruses and fungus.
-
Water oxygenation.
Unused ozone slowly decomposes to normal oxygen and remains dissolved in
the water to the point of saturation. This makes the pool water clean,
sparkling and appealing.
-
Leaves no toxic
residues
in the treated
water. (See paragraph 2.)
-
Ozone is produced on site
and
does not require storage nor transportation.
-
Dissolved ozone at levels below 0.15 mg./l
does not cause adverse health effects even during
long term exposure.
-
Eliminate
use of
chlorine which is constantly released in its highly toxic
gas form right above the pool water.
-
OZONE
ends water
discharge liabilities, i.e. no toxins .
-
OZONE prevents calcium
carbonate scaling, removes existing scale, cleans and prevents greasy
sediments on pool sides.
OZONE treated waters have a much lower
cleaning cost.
6.
Ozone has become known as a major health benefit to swimming pool
users, and is being used by countless hospitals and
rehabilitation centres. Today's
technology does not require chlorine, except as a backup in case of
maintenance or power blackout.
Bromine is much more suitable than
chlorine where there is a need to complement an ozone system, since
bromine co-operates with ozone.
While bromine is slightly more expensive
to buy, much less bromine is needed since ozone will recycle bromine up to
14 X in the pool water.
7.
Chlorine-free pools have been in operation for over 50 years in
Europe.
8.
During ozone start up in pools where chlorine was previously used,
ozone may cause a few hours of foaming, flocculation, and milky water
colour. These are proper oxidation processes; a one-time event with no
harmful effects. The circulation system in the pool will remove the
oxidation by-products and water will turn a sparkling clean sky blue with
a pleasantly clean smell.
9. Ozone generators
provide all the necessary ozonation power to purify, oxygenate and
sanitise swimming pools, Jacuzzi, ponds, water-works, and dams. Our
modular system provides spares capacity in case of failure of any part of
the ozonation system.

What equipment do I need
to use ozone in my pool?
Ozone (O³) is a highly unstable gas and reverts back to
its stable state of oxygen (O²) rapidly (15-30 minutes in water), therefore
you need an ozone generator to produce the ozone gas on-site. All our Pool
ozonator kits come with everything you need to install your unit quickly and
effortlessly.

Ideal pump run
time is 24 hours. If user chooses to run pump on 12-hour cycle time then
water circulating rate should be once each 3 to 4 hour period. The pump
should re-circulate the total volume of pool water through the injector at
least once each 4 hr period for maximum litres. If the pool volume is say 60
000 litres then the pump should be capable of re-circulating the water at a
rate of at least 15 000 litres per hour. This way, the total volume of water
through the pool will be pass through the injector at least once each 4 hour
period. Less pump run time for the minimum litres. Use Sodium Bromide if
additional chemicals are required. Dosage is 20g per 1000 Litres of water
every 6 months |
|
Fitting
an ozone Dosing System for swimming
Pools is Simple: |
|
|
 |
|
|
Ozone generator wiring is spliced or plugged into the
pump motor line so that when the pump runs, the generator runs.
The most popular domestic unit is the model 4000mg/hr producing 4 gram
per hour and will suit up to +/-50 000 litre pool (Gunite, Marbellite or
fibreglass). There is a range of larger output systems available,
including commercial and industrial systems. |
