No operator can afford to ignore the issue of pool contamination, whether from environmental sources or swimmers. A well-maintained, properly operating filtration and treatment system is essential to protect patrons from harmful pathogens and keep the facility in a condition which meets community expectations.
There are a number of different possible approaches to filtration and disinfection, each with its own merits. Increasingly, responsible operators must consider a multi-barrier risk management approach, including control of Cryptosporidium and Giardia parasites, which are not removed by more conventional filtration methods.Other considerations are the potential for on-site chemical generation, ultraviolet disinfection and water reclaim solutions. The revolutionary Perlite filtration system designed for the South Australian Aquatic & Leisure Centre led to a Channel 9 News report describing the water as so clear and soft, it was ‘like diving into silk sheets’.
Commercial Aquatics Australia, with many years of experience in building and operating systems in all kinds of environments, is ideally placed to devise appropriate treatment solutions for new installations, and to provide exceptional servicing and maintenance for existing facilities.
