Why We Use The Enviroswim System
There’s so much to consider when designing your dream backyard oasis, especially when it comes to the pool. Shape, size, cost, material…and these days, you have to consider the type of water, too. Traditionally your choices have been chlorine or saltwater. Classic Pools & Landscapes offers a freshwater system called Enviroswim.
Before we dive in, it’s important to establish exactly how saltwater and traditional chlorine pools differ. It seems obvious: one has salt and one doesn’t. But that’s not the whole story. In fact, the real difference between these two kinds of pools is the chlorination process. Saltwater pools use salt chlorinators—also known as salt generators—which use electrolysis to split the salt into hydrogen and hypochlorous acid (the dissolved form of chlorine), thereby sanitizing the pool without added chlorine. The salt in the pool is turned into chlorine though so there is still chlorine there to do the cleaning. Salt can also be very corrosive to the hard materials you use in and around the pool.
On the other hand, traditional pools use chlorine tablets or granules, which are physically added by the pool owner to sanitize the water. In other words, a saltwater pool is constantly being chlorinated through the salt chlorinator, whereas a chlorine pool is manually chlorinated at certain intervals.
Enviroswim is a unique patented Australian designed and manufactured pool sanitiser. The Enviroswim ES3 freshwater system is a unique and innovative product as it simultaneously uses three processes; electronic oxidising, ionisation and ultrasonics to annihilate bacteria, fungi, and viruses from your pool. Enviroswim eliminates the requirement to add most chemicals including chlorine and cyanuric acid, resulting in exceptional water quality. It releases a powerful algaecide and bactericide that laboratory tests indicate is 10 times more effective than standard guidelines for disinfection. water clarity is enhanced by the powerful oxidation unit, which breaks down organic compounds to assist their removal by filtration.
Benefits include the removal and prevention of scale build-up from heat exchangers and other pool equipment and the elimination of offensive Chlorine odours from the water and air around the pool and spa areas. Traditional systems require constant intervention due to their volatility. EnviroSwim’s highly stable process allows pools to be left unattended for extended periods. Operating costs, reduced maintenance, improved equipment life and corrosion are all reduced utilizing the EnviroSwim process. The EnviroSwim system does not produce chemical side effects such as red-eyes, green hair, skin irritation and bleached clothes.
