Why Water Balance Matters More Than Ever

In public swimming pools, maintaining perfect water balance is not just about clear water — it is about safety, hygiene, comfort, and compliance with regulations. Four critical parameters must be monitored continuously to ensure effective disinfection and swimmer protection.

ORP

Oxidation-Reduction Potential — the true indicator of disinfection strength.

Free Chlorine

Essential for neutralizing harmful microorganisms effectively.

Alkalinity

The stabilizing factor that prevents rapid pH fluctuations.

Temperature

Influences both chlorine demand and bacterial growth rates.

Together, these parameters determine how efficiently your pool disinfects water and protects swimmers from harmful microorganisms.
