An automatic pool product dispenser is useful for regularly monitoring water quality and correcting imperfections. The chlorinator and the automatic pH controller minimize the manual interventions needed to optimize the comfort of swimmers.
An automatic dispenser is useful for several reasons:
- maintaining good water quality at all times;
- freeing oneself from certain maintenance tasks.
The chlorinator has a few characteristics to be aware of:
- this device automatically distributes chlorine into the pool to effectively combat the proliferation of algae;
- it plays an important role in water disinfection by stabilizing the chlorine level;
- for optimal efficiency, it is recommended to install it after the filtration system;
- the choice of equipment depends on the volume of the pool (a chlorinator with a capacity of 4 kg for a 150 m3 pool);
- sometimes, the chlorinator is coupled with a brominator that distributes bromine, which has a role similar to that of chlorine.
The water treated by this automatic pool product dispenser is reintroduced into the pool for a uniform distribution of chlorine.
An automatic pH controller allows for water with a neutral pH, which is between 6.8 and 7.6, to be available at all times. Some information about the pH, which allows assessing the nature of the water:
- the lower the pH (below 6.8), the more acidic and corrosive the water is, posing a danger to materials, equipment, and swimmers;
- if its value is above 7.6, the water is basic, promoting the development of algae and various bacteria.
The operation of the pH controller is quite simple:
- to maintain a neutral pH, this device analyzes the water quality using a probe positioned at the recirculation circuit;
- depending on the data it receives, it automatically injects the required dose of product into the pool.
In short, an automatic pool product dispenser is useful as it saves time and allows for serene swimming. However, even if all tasks are automated, a regular check of the availability of treatment products is necessary.
