Why filter water in swimming pools?

Clean water is one of the most important aspects of running a swimming pool. It might surprise you to find out that pools are only advised to keep their chemical levels (free and combined Chlorine mainly) at a certain level, not legally obligated. PWTAG, the body that does the advising, do a great job but with individual pools being responsible for their own maintenance, variables in how the water is managed is common. Pools often have similar filtration systems because of a reluctance to stray to far from something that's known to work, even if it's at a poor level. An example would be level of Chlorine used in pools. In many cases it's far beyond the level needed and because of the lack of regulation, is completely at the discretion of the operator. UV treated water has been proven to increase bather experience, the environment impact and improve running costs of the pool. In fact, most new swimming pools have UV disinfection installed as part of the filtration process. The good news about this is that increasing operator awareness, along with monitoring already being a high priority, means that proper filtration is easily adopted. Fully treated water ensures that the water stays within recommended levels as it moves through the recirculation process. Commercial scale water treatment systems add and remove chemicals and minerals in a very reliable way, but more recently, a much closer emphasis has been placed on incorporating green, sustainable technology into large scale production facilities rather than using chemicals.

The products in this collection provide filtration for public and commercial sized pools of any size. We can supply equipment that can meet demand up to around 1000m³/hour before special considerations need to be made. Our product range can meet any water quality parameter you need as well, so call us to go over it in more detail.

Benefits of water filtration for swimming pools 

Installing a modern water treatment system could make all the difference to bath experience and operator management. If you run a pool complex the importance of the filtration equipment is likely not something to be ignored. Not only does a water filtration system cut down on many harmful by-products and safeguards against bacteria and spore growth, but also can be used to add useful chemicals to your water and increase Chlorine longevity. Using suitable water treatment equipment could be the next step in improving quality and standards at your pool and increasing the operational lifetime of your equipment.
