Why not Chlorine?
HEALTH AND ENVIRONMENTAL WARNING
HEALTH WARNING – Chlorine is a dangerous and highly carcinogenic chemical. The byproducts of chorine are PCB’s and PBB’s and they are TWO OF THE DEADLIEST COMPOUNDS KNOWN TO MAN!
- PARENTS – Please consider the long term health dangers associated with toxic chemicals before exposing your children to these chemicals. We urge you to choose eco-friendly solution whenever possible. Today PCB’s and PBB’s are contaminating our global water resources. It’s time to eliminate toxic chemicals whenever eco-alternatives exist.
- PUBLIC POOLS – This notice is to ALL OWNERS AND MANAGERS of: Hotels, Motels, Apartments and Community Pools. While a minimum of 1 ppm of chlorine is presently mandated in all public pools you can significantly reduce the amount of chlorine that you use by adding My Natural Pool to your swimming pools. My Natural Pool acts as a stabilizer to chlorine and for that reason MNP can reduce chlorine consumption by as much as 50%. While chlorine is significantly affected by heat, sunlight and the load on the people (people soaking up the carcinogen called chlorine) these factors have very little effect on My Natural Pool which is why only a small amount needs to be added each month.
- CRYPTOSORIDIUM – Commonly known as Crypto, dangerous and potentially deadly bacteria, has become more and more resistant to chlorine.
- Crypto often comes straight through our water municipalities since 90% of the municipalities in the U.S. only filter down to 7 or 8 microns. To filter out Crypto you must be able to filter down to 2 microns.
- While our lab continues to work on a solution to this problem we strongly urge all pool owners to only use DE and Sand Filtration Systems and to backwash on a regular basis. Also remember to replace DE powder each time in DE Filtration Systems.
· Swimming pools provide a tremendous amount of fun and enjoyment for everyone but remember an ounce of preventative is worth a pound of cure. Let’s work together to keep our pools a fun and safe environment.
