We all know that we want to do all we can to protect and clean up our environment. There are over 80,000 new products on the market to go green in maintaining your pool. However, only a small handful of these products have actually been tested. The efficacy of these products can raise more questions than answers. However there are some pool service applications that are considered environmentally friendly and that are being tried by professionals around the nation. Some of these include Ionization-Oxidation sanitizers for water purification, Catalytic enzyme/phosphate removers which are natural enzymes to break up contaminants and remove bacteria, Cellulose fiber filtration media, and Sonic Waves and Metal Removers to help with algae and heavy metals in the pool. These new products can be more expensive but may be the wave of the future for cleaning and sanitizing your pool. Talk to your pool service technician to find out what specific brand he would recommend and what the benefits can be. As more and more research is done, more and more products that will create a cleaner and healthier pool will be available.
