The use of ozone is common in commercial, city, municipal and private swimming pools. This is because there are a number of health benefits offered by ozone pool systems, but the primary benefit offered by ozonated pool water is the comfort it provides. No more worrying about rashes, red eye, fading of your swimsuit and other common problems related to the use of chlorine in pools, even when chlorine is in use. Even if you have a pool that uses chloramine or chlorine, you can swim in the ozonated pool and avoid the comfort and health issues related to the traditional chlorinated pool.
Chlorine Issues Minimized or Eliminated
When having a swimming pool installed, you should find a company that is dedicated to providing you with a healthy environment for swimming. Since the majority of regulations for swimming pools require a chlorine residual and if you have complied with this regulation, you may wonder why you should add ozone to your pool. There are several reasons to do this, including:
- Reduction in the chlorine smell
- Reduce or eliminate the gases that can eat the infrastructure of the pool
- Prevent the formation of toxic byproducts
- Reduce and prevent the chlorine off-gassing
- Reduce or prevent chloramines
Benefits for Private Pools
When you install ozone for swimming pools at your private residence, it will help to keep the water crystal clear. It also offers the same benefits as it does for commercial applications, such as a reduction in irritation, as well as a reduction in the strong chlorine smell. After all, the rashes, skin issues, and red eye that occur are the way that your body tells you something is wrong and that you are in a toxic environment.
Ozone vs. Chlorine Systems
Even though swimming can improve your fitness and reduce asthma issues, there is some scientific information suggesting that there are a number of health related issues related to swimming in pool water that has been chemically traded. There is a good amount of research related to the fact that chloramines and chloroform can damage your respiratory epithelium and cause additional issues, which can cause inflammatory reactions.
With ozone for swimming pools, you can reduce all the issues associated with traditional chlorinated pools. This makes the pool safer and healthier for everyone who is using it. It is a viable option for all pools, residential, commercial and city.
