PUBLIC POOLS

WHAT IS IT?

SUGAR VALLEY’s complete range of ecological water treatments specifically designed to meet the needs of:

Residential and Commercial Public Swimming Pools, Wellness Hotels, Beach Resorts, Spas, Sports Clubs, Campsites, Home-owner Associations, and so on.

FEATURES

Sugar Valley in over 30 years’ designing and manufacturing automatic disinfection systems for ecological water treatment, Sugar Valley has achieved the following:

REDUCTION of the overall consumption of chemical products.
ELIMINATION of chloramines without having to frequently replace the water.
AUTOMATION and OPTIMIZATION of the swimming pool’s operation.
REDUCTION in maintenance, a significant reduction.
CONTROL over the pool’s conditions and parameters, in real time, with remote communication 24 hours a day and 365 days a year.

PRODUCT RANGE

Hidrolife: Saline electrolysis
Aquascenic: Hydrolysis + Copper and silver ionization.
UVScenic: Hydrolysis + Ultraviolet.
Oxilife: Low-salinity hydrolysis or electrolysis.
Bionet: Saline electrolysis + Copper and silver ionization.
Hidroniser: Copper and silver ionizer (with in-line flocculant).
Station: Automatic regulators of chemical products in general.

PRACTICAL EXAMPLES

Max. number of swimmers / day (150 people) x 10 g of Cl = 1,500 g

Volume in m3 (250 m3) x 2 g of Cl = 500 g
(multiply by 2.5 g instead of 2 g for the case of children’s pools)

1,500 g + 500 g = 2,000 g of Cl required / day

2,000 g / (12 hours) daily filtration period = 166.66 g / hour

The models needed to provide maximum production in this example are:

Hidrolife: SAL-175.
Bionet: BIO-175.
Oxilife: OX-6.
Aquascenic: HD-6.
Hidroniser: AQ300 (sized according to the volume, as it does not generate oxidizing agents).
Station: ST1 (select a pump according to volume, from KB5-5 and upwards, as this measures and controls the conventional chemical product without relying on an alternative treatment).

SAVINGS

COMPARISON of HIDROLIFE saline electrolysiswith conventional systems relying on chemical products:

47% annual savings in costs.
41.880 € saved during the ecological solution’s service life.
1.825 m³ of annual water savings.
50% reduction in maintenance time.
No need to store chemicals
An asset to the property, since it is not a cost but an investment

REAL-LIFE DATA:

Pools at the Rubí Swimming Club: Treated with AQUASCENIC systems (hydrolysis + copper and silver ionization), automatic pH and redox management, plus communication via a computer, iPhone.

Installation and maintenance carried out by: Solatep (Sant Feliu de Llobregat, Barcelona).

Summary of the installation:
Progressively installed in each of four pools, between April/May and August 2013.

SAVINGS:

Over the course of three months of operation (August to October):

The overall reduction in chlorine was around 80% and as the equipment is now installed and operating at optimum performance in all of the pools, it is hoped to reach 95% in the month of November.
Average annual financial savings estimated to be around 50% of the costs prior to installing the Aquascenic systems. Estimations for these calculations are based on the significant reductions in the following costs:
50% in maintenance personnel and the handling of chemical products.
50% in water replacement costs, as hydrolysis systems eliminate chloramines without needing to renew the water.
5% in the use of hypochlorite and other chemicals.
With these savings the equipment will give a return on the investment in an estimated period of just 2.5 years. Not to mention the incalculable added-value for the club’s image, since swimmers now appreciate the improved water quality.
In the case of Rubí Swimming Club, Solatep will also choose to install the VistaPool remote monitoring system from Sugar Valley. The pools, therefore, have automation kits providing real-time displays of the pools’ production statistics, operations and parameters by means of a control panel with radio-frequency and Wi-Fi communication.
