I hope that everyone is enjoying the lovely spring weather. It’s been cool here so far this May, much cooler than April was if you can believe that, but I know that there are warm days on the way. Perhaps you live in an area where it’s already warm enough that you’ve started planning what you’ll do on those hot summer days?
I wish we had a pool, but our yard is far too small. A wading pool would have to suffice for us if we were hot enough to want to soak! Some of our friends do have pools and we’re lucky enough to be invited over for pool parties often enough each summer.
Our friends that have pools have been starting to to talk about getting their pools ready for the upcoming season. I’m sure those of you with pools have been thinking about getting them ready too.
If you have a pool or if you’ve been thinking about putting a pool in this year have you spent any time thinking about what kind of water treatment you’ll use? It’s one of the most important parts of pool maintenance from my understanding.
I’m all for environmentally friendly pool treatment systems. We garden organically and try to live as green as possible so it only makes sense that if we did have a pool we’d want the safest type of water treatment.
If you feel the same way or if you’re interested in learning more about eco friendly pool treatments you should take a moment to visit Ecosmartepool.com. They specialize in chlorine free pool filters and spas.
By now I think that just about everyone knows that chlorine treated water or pool systems aren’t very good for the environment.
I always thought that salt chlorinators were a safe alternative, but after reading some of the information and articles over at Ecosmartepool.com I know better!
Did you know that salt water pools actually use chlorine generators to keep the water clean. Chlorine generators require quite a bit of maintenance, some produce messy byproducts that isn’t easily disposed of, and as I said before Chlorine treatments really aren’t considered green.
Why not use a system that’s 100% chemical free? That’s were EcoSmarte comes in … They specialize in salt water, chlorine and hazardous chemical free pool systems. They also have a line of spa and pond systems as well that are equally chemical free.
EcoSmarte’s pool systems use natural oxygen to maintain the quality of the water in your pool. Natural oxygen systems are more effective than ones that use bacquacil or bromine, plus they are easier to use than chlorine based systems. Not only that they are also safer than ozone treatments too.
One of the other products that EcoSmarte sells is called EcoSmart filter glass media. This can be used for pool treatment systems.
One of the things that I like about EcoSmarte is that they are dedicated to protecting the environment. They actually donate 5% of their profits to environmental charities. They have a strong belief in their water treatment systems and are in fact, against Chlorine and Salt water based pool treatments.
There’s lots of good reason to consider switching to a natural oxygen based pool treatment system. One of them is the fact that you won’t be purchasing dangerous hazardous chemicals to maintain your pool system. That will not only make your pool maintenance storage area safer if you have kids or pets, but by not having to buy all those chemicals you’ll save a ton of money! Think about it!
Oh and you’ll save on your energy bill too. The EcoSmarte pool system is so energy efficient that it costs less than $1 a month to operate. Cool! You can reduce your carbon footprint with your energy savings!
If you’re thinking about visiting the EcoSmarte website to read some of their articles or perhaps thinking of contacting them to get one of their product brochures or a free quote you’ll be pleased to know that they also offer a 60 day satisfaction guarantee and a 5 year warranty on all purchases.
EcoSmarte definitely seems to be a company that believes in and stands by their product. Do visit the site if you have a pool or if you’re thinking of installing a pool in the near future.
If your pool is indoors or covered you can use Bromine but it is not recommended for outdoor pools. And you dont have to do anything to switch. You can just start adding bromine tabs to your feeder. If you switch and you want to switch back to chlorine later then you would have to drain the pool if you wanted to get rid of all the Bromine. Bromine will not leave the water like chlorine does and once it is added it is always present in the water. In certain applications it is a good alternative to chlorine.
