Methods and equipment for the preparation of water in the pool

Any pool owner knows how important it is to prepare water for him. Water processing before filling the pool bowl may include mechanical cleaning, biological disinfection or both methods at once. Mechanical cleaning is a removal of large garbage, sand and a variety of suspension from the water. It is easy to guess that the simplest way of mechanical cleaning will skip water through any filter. The main types of filters used in the preparation of water are two: membrane and sand. Disinfection kills microorganisms living in water. In addition to the threat of infections for the swimsman, they lead to the “flowering” of water and the appearance of plaque on the walls of the pool.

There are several basic methods for disinfecting water for pools: chlorination, ozone or electricity processing, irradiation with ultravioletus. Ozoning, electrolysis and ultraviolet requires pumping water through a special installation. The obvious drawback of these methods, in addition to relative high cost, is that the surface of the pool is not processed. Chlorination from this point of view is more effective; Moreover, much less costly.
