Certikin Seminar 2010 introduced the new Elecro T100 electric heater. The elecro heaters have been the very similar in design for many years but now elecro and Certikin have teamed up to design this new Elecro T100 for the 2010 swimming season. This heater is ideal for bigger pools as it goes upto 72kw and has many new safety features. 

The NEW T-100 model heater is designed for ultimate safety and market leading reliability. It is perfect for use on larger pools. It is available in outputs from 6-72-kW. Multiple heaters can be installed in parallel to achieve greater outputs. T-100 models are supplied fully equipped and prewired to ensure easy installation and incorporate several safety features to ensure they meet and exceed current and future safety standards.

Key Features

• Titanium heating elements – Offer total protection against corrosion from aggressive water chemistry.
• Flow switch – The safest and most reliable method to protect equipment when flow stops.

This is becoming slightly more alarming, to the swimming pool connoisseur but our experiences at the global swimming pool world trade show in Barcelona, had its own little china town section with many trade stands pitching for the sale of product to the swimming pool trade.

now let’s face it was is not built or made in china these days, however something’s we feel are best left alone.

many factors when choosing your swimming pool supplier may come into play, if budget is not one of them the likelihood is the you will receive good product of decent merchantable quality because let’s face it, if the manufacturers have cut their costs in production it usually means they have also cut the quality.

Whilst at the show in Barcelona we met Chinese distributors selling items from Chemicals to Heaters and pool cleaning equipment, so how do you tell what is what? well very difficult we always advise to stick with a good swimming pool chemical brand like Plastica, Bayrol, Arch chemicals, Fi-CLor its pretty much a given this product is good, net brushes poles well this we deem a kind of a swimming pool consumable so if these were Chinese sourced it’s not too much of a problem as their replacement cost is fairly low.

But at the same time the pool maintenance equipment produced by Certikin some years ago is still out there in the field to date, so buy cheap buy twice.

but pumps filters heaters this is slightly more alarming to Deep End Pools, ok there are a handful of importers and distributors of certikin Chinese pumps and filters that put their equipment through religious testing Pro copi uk being one of them with their Fairland heat pump being one product,

however one conversation with a Chinese distributor alarmed me when he mentioned he had to install 4 heat pumps on a average 30 x 15 pool mainly to hold the heat however the second reason if you get one unit breakdown you have 3 in standby! Wow pretty scary needless to say we walked however observed the product for recollection in the forth coming swimming pool season of 2010.

all it takes is an ask, prior to any purchase of a costly swimming pool pump, filter or heater ask where its coming from and who is supporting it, get a warranty get covered.  We hope this insight review may help you.

A site visit today really did remind us why we choose to offer high quality Calorex heat pumps, the pool was 30 years old and the swimming pool air source heat pump was the original, the failing to the heat pump was the corrosion to the heat pump cabinet however lets face it 30 years there are not many 30 year old cars on the road.

needless to say we will be swapping the heat pump like for like, the site was in Maidenhead near the fisherys area. Berkshire.

So if your looking for a good quality air source heat pump, that will last in our opinion the Calorex unit is a pretty safe bet.

Whilst the weather is splendid currently, have you had a feel of the temperature in the late evening temperatures are sneaking to below 10 degrees this means one thing…… swimming pool heat loss!

So if your finding your swimming pool is calling for heat a little more at the moment this will simply be why, as the nights draw in closer to BWT it is likely you demand for heat in the swimming pool will increase.

as long as your heater is specified to work in these parameters of late season this is great however if it is not, it probably is worth calling the season over as the heating device will be working its little heart out and you efficiency may have dropped due to the lower temperatures especially if it is an air source heat pump with a summer season specification.

In late November we received an enquiry from Mr and Mrs Jones in Badminton Gloucestershire for the construction of an indoor swimming pool, suitable for use similar to that of a swim spa or endless style swimming pool.

Having reviewed the brief specification for the pool it very quickly transpired that in fact the ideal set up would be a Sunsoaka Log cabin a separate spa area instead of an intergrated spa within a swim spa shell we opted for the extremely reliable Marquis spa brand and the model in particular being the Rendezvous in Almond Mocha Walnut colour combination. And for the injection of power or swimming aid counter current unit we installed the Classic Fluvo swim jet C2G rondo set up allowing us to remotely fix the pump to a pit beyond the sunsoaka log cabin.

Works commenced during the really cold snap in February 2009 and amongst the uk running out of salt to grit the M4 motorway, this was not the only obstacle in our way to build a pool within our timescale, we hit good hard Cotswold stone during the swimming pool excavation most of which was broken down by hand! And removed with the digger bucket.

Once the swimming pool was excavated and datum’s agreed the build was extremely swift, using for the first time the Blockit Polystyrene swimming pool system. The system benefits from a concrete infill to the centre of the block work coupled with steel re-enforcement producing unparallel strength and the added advantage of the system being polystyrene therefore retaining heat which in today’s current climate is a wise choice for both purposes of future on cost and help reducing carbon foot prints.

Construction of the Blockit swimming pool system is very fast indeed not weather dependant which is great and having built the vast majority of the swimming pool in the snow certainly a bonus on this project.

Once the pool had cured we began the erecting of the susoaka log cabin from SPL group sp leisure ltd, we have known Tristan Baitmen for many years now so the right specified cabin given the project layout to house the counter current swim jet pool and marquis spa was paramount. Tristan from spl specified a 70mm log for added strength, with double glazing windows throughout the pool hall.

Mr and Mrs Jones had some very specific requirements for entry and exiting the swimming pool, we choose a county leisure drop in step unit with double hand rails and hand rails from the Golden Coast range of spa essentials.

Running costs were a huge factor, my specification suggested I required a 6-9kw heater to heat the swimming pool with this in mind, the running costs could simply run away, so given the swimming pool dig produced absolutely no ground water present and the added advantage of the blockit polystyrene swimming pool system and its added heat retention properties, I choose to down size the heater to a 3kw! Elecro heater the maths simply did not add up would it work? And as a secondary source of heat for summer season use we installed a Heat Basic heat pump from Pollet pool group.  The cover was a 5mm certikin heat retention cover.

A vaporex 30 Dehumidifier with 2kw internal heater was mounted to the wall to remove humidity from the room and create a warming feel to the pool hall air, controlled via a simple swimming pool hall temperature air stat

So with cabin fully constructed and liner fitted and the Marquis spa installed and running heated to 40 degrees! Would the indoor swimming pool heat on seemingly a small 3kw heater? The commission day being a Saturday we all awaited the results of the heat up for Monday from Mr Jones………. Pool at 27 degrees wow! fantastic not only had we produced a pool on time (with snow) on budget but due to the consideration for future on costs and heat retention the pool had heated to the required temperature within the given timescale of 3 days in fact heating up in 2 days! A really great project and one which has become the bench mark in our future projects for 2009, so much so two of our swimming pool projects have decided to switch to the Blockit swimming pool system based upon our results.

If you are considering a swim exercise pool with counter current unit or endless fast lane either indoors or outdoors please call 01494 671787 today you may be pleasantly surprised to hear what can be built on a small budget.
