Protect Your Family Now!

January 28th, 2010

Deep End Pools at the Certikin International 2010 Seminar 28th January at the Hilton Hotel Warwick, where introduced to the Vacless Safety Vacuum Release Device. This deive is a simple install to any swimming pool system that could save a life. This little device is an extremely simple yet effective way of protecting you and you family. 

 

Vacless Automatic Breathers provide immediate vacuum relief upon entrapment by allowing atmospheric air to rapidly fill the pump pot causing it to lose prime.

Vacless Safety Vacuum Release Systems not only provide added safety against suction entrapment, but they also act as a drain winterization device a surge suppressor extending the life of your pool equipment. This valve is directly attached to the pump by removing the suction side drain plug and installing this SVRS in its place. All of our valves are designed for use on 0.5 to 10.0 horsepower pumps for small and large water recreational installations including hot tubs, spas, fountains, wading residential or commercial pools.

The anti entrapment safety function is achieved by allowing ambient air to rapidly fill the pump suction side, in the event of a high vacuum occurrence, causing it to loose prime providing for the quick release of an entrapment.

The surge suppressor function is achieved by arresting the sudden vacuum rise while the seal is momentarily depressed allowing for quick air gasps. At this role, the valve protects the pump filtration equipment against shocks and vibrations during pump start-ups leading to reduced maintenance costs, less down time, and longer equipment life.

The winterization function is achieved by simply removing the SVRS until all of the water in the pump is fully drained.

Swimming Pool Safety – Reality Check

January 22nd, 2010

At a recent swimming pool conference I slipped out of the main hall to get some fresh air and there was 1 person sat outside of the conference room. As we were all there for the same reason I said hello and went on about my business. I came back past and got talking and then found out that the man was Allen J Wilson who is one of the Worlds top swimming pool consultants.

Allen has many stories of his travels all over the world consulting on massive commercial developments in places like Dubai, Spain, Portugal and so on.

One scary part of his job is to find out when a drowning occurs who is liable for the accident and could it of been prevented. Some of the ways a death could have been prevented would only cost a few pounds or taken a small amount of time to prevent all together.

This really kicked in how dangerous a swimming pool can be.

For this reason we have really looked into and will be contining to look for the best and most proven safety devices to make you swimming pool as family friendly as possible
