Liscences & Legislation for Pool Maintenance Companies

Postby boxcart » Mon Oct 03, 2005 8:33 pm

Too often there are cowboys, rogue traders and gardeners maintaining pools who dont know what they are doing. They might use copper sulphate which has been proven to be very damaging to kidney and other organs, they might use incorrect levels of chemicals. Note the point isnt whether they keep the pool clean its a question of whether its safe to swim in.

I saw that at the show its a way of covering the pool with lots of little balls, mainly for freeform pools apparently our pool company have something on their website about it.

No ofcourse you dont drink it but the body absorbs water through the skin something like a litre every half hour

Because many strange shapes of pools cant have a slatted cover and some people want an automatic cover rather than the cumbersome bubble cover like myself

Boxcart, could I please ask where you got your information from regarding the body absorbing water at a rate of half a litre every hour!
