The Role of Pool Chlorinators in Pool Safety.
Pool chlorinators are crucial for pool safety because they help maintain clean and sanitized water. Here’s the how and why…
Why Chlorinate the Pool?
Using a pool chlorinator is an effective way to ensure the water is safe and clean, providing swimmers with a healthy and enjoyable swimming experience.
Chlorination kills harmful bacteria, viruses, and algae that can pose health risks to swimmers. Without proper chlorination, pool water can become a breeding ground for pathogens, leading to illness and infections. Chlorinators provide a consistent level of chlorine in the water, which is essential for ensuring the pool stays safe for swimming.
Spas Too.
A friend of mine once hired a portable spa for a New Year’s Party. He cleaned it and filled it with fresh water, but didn’t see the need to add chlorine, as it was for a single night’s use and surely no nasties would get a chance to develop within that time period.
The party went well but, the next morning, most of those who used the spa broke out in a rash. This is because pathogens were lurking in the internal piping and such nasties can remain active for many days after the spa has been drained. Chlorine acts as a disinfectant that destroys harmful microorganisms, keeping the water free from bacteria and viruses that can cause skin rashes, eye irritation, or even more severe illnesses.
Algae Hates Chlorine.
In addition to maintaining hygiene, chlorinators also contribute to pool safety by preventing algae growth. Algae can create slippery surfaces around the pool, increasing the risk of slips and falls. By keeping algae under control, chlorinators help reduce accidents and improve the overall safety of the pool area.
Which KChlor Pool Chlorinator is best for you?
It depends on the size of your pool. To calculate how many litres are in your pool simply multiply the length by the width and then the average depth (depth at the deep end plus depth at the shallow end divided by 2).
Even if your pool is not rectangular in shape, this is still a good way to measure it, as it is always a good idea to overestimate the pool size anyway, so the chlorinator you choose does not have to work too hard to maintain it. Therefore any curves in the pool can be ignored.
