How to clean water for swimming: an overview of ways to filter an outdoor poolThe installation of an outdoor swimming pool must first solve the problem of cleanliness and safety of water. Aqua day is the realm of thousands of microbes, to get rid of through which is allowed only with the help of special installations. Closed stationary pools are under construction again in the process of construction by strong filtering systems that support the circulation and cleaning of water around the clock, and for the sake of household open structures filters are provided for the least efficient pools, but comfortable in installation and maintenance.
Why do I need a filter order?
Natural water sometimes has properties that are perfectly suitable for healthy bathing, therefore there is an excess of methods for cleaning it, between which chemical disinfection, mechanical cleaning, ozonation and filtration is the more popular method for suburban use. It is impossible to enjoy a pleasant rest entirely, if the water is quite dirty and unsafe for health, therefore, together with the purchase of a frame or inflatable structure, also during the construction of an unchanged reservoir in the courtyard of a suburban house, patch the relative installation of a filtration system
The water must be cleaned independently of it through a water supply source. It is not necessary to calculate that the tap water is saturated with lime and iron particles, and the liquid from the well or from the surface of the lake is ideal according to its features. In"living"water, the possibility of multiplying pathogenic microbes is increased, because there is no chemical finish. In addition, the quality of water is soon lowered due to the ingress of large particles of mud and dust for the aquatic appearance of an unclosed basin.
Water for bathing in accordance with its features should exist close to the drinking analogue, because during the time of aqua procedures it falls into the eyes, ears, mouth, nose and contacts the skin non-stop. The property of water is allowed to be found even without special equipment: it is transparent (it is allowed to view images or cracks for the pool day), does not have the aroma caused by the decomposition of microbes, and brown or greenish color. Find the height of the pH or the presence of active chlorine is allowed by using a set of pills, strips or a more expensive and clear device - a modern electric tester
All certain characteristics found"by eye"is very problematic - this refers to the content in its composition of salts or to the level of overestimated acidity. In order to have the greatest purity, use such processing methods, like:
multi-stage mineral cleaning
disinfection;
upholding
air conditioning;
condolence
Filters are used for different cleaning steps, from mechanical collection of leaves from the aqua surface with special devices, ending with distillation and neutralization of acidity for the final stage.
Future filters for the sake of outdoor pools Visibility #1 - Sand Devices
Thanks to the availability of the sand filter, it can be purchased by a single individual, a small advantage of vital models - 4800 rubles. Naturally, such devices are designed for against a short amount of filtered water and are suitable for cleaning small inflatable and frame structures. For larger tanks, massive aggregates are provided at a price of 1 million rubles, but for the home use, expensive production models are not necessary. Sand filters have a small streamlined shape, their body is strongly protected through the effects of natural causes. Such devices are installed unswervingly around the pool, additional areas or protective covers they do not require
Choose a sand filter to direct attention to the filler. It can exist just dust, dust with gravel particles, also with inclusions of anthracite or carbon. The more diverse the filler, the higher the cleaning height. Quartz dust should be changed every 3 years, but there are variants with a more rare substitution, for example, glass dust is poured a little once in 5 or 6 years.
A single discharge of sand (0.5-0.8 mm) falls into simple structures, in more complex devices 3-5 layers of different fractions. Before water passes through large crystals, completes the cleaning in a fine sand cushion. In expensive models, there may be an additional discharge of the absorbent component.
The individual visibility of the material has a bait property. For example, granulated anthracite, in fact for 90% of carbon, is distinguished by fairly large and pointed pellets. In reward through the sand, they do not form a dense cushion, therefore during the filtration there is a small loss of load, but the speed of cleaning increases. The mechanism of the sand filter can be monitored according to this scheme: water enters the device, passes through the discharge of mineral particles and comes out clean
Which act, if the filter is clogged? This will certainly happen in 1-2 weeks of active use of the pool. In each device there is a recycling task, for the sake of which additional water will be needed. Owners of their own wells do not have to worry, and users of centralized water supply will have an additional expense of saving money.
Dust and other fillers are sold in specialized stores, a 25-kilogram pocket of quartz material costs about 400 rubles, glass - about 2 times more expensive. Such a filter can even be constructed without the help of others! It seems like you can watch for video:
Visibility #2 - diatomite systems
Manufacturers of diatomite filtration plants say that the introduction of a small powder (diatomaceous earth) makes it possible to achieve the greatest purity of water. Let's try to navigate in the technical properties of this type of filters and realize, it's worth buying the most precious atmosphere for the sake of the summer pool. Diatomite, who has another common name - kieselguhr, is a sedimentary rock. Consistent with their own essence, they are stony pressed diatomaceous aquatic plants, for 95% consisting of silica
A small part of the cleansing particles retains small impurities of size in front of 1 micron, which is an indisputable advantage over sand analogues, although otherwise the mechanism of operation of diatomite devices is no different. The discharge of the filler is in self-cleaning iron elements coated with polypropylene. The water passes through the diatom"pillow", is cleaned and withdrawn back into the pool enriched with silicon. The only variant of the diatomite filter for the sake of the outdoor pool is the Hayward Pro Grid sample: the working load is up to 3.5 bar, the filter diameter is 660 mm, the productivity is 11 m?/Hour, the dignity is 60 thousand rubles
The usefulness of silicon water is much spoken and written. Experts say that it has a whole set of necessary parameters:
neutralizes chloride compounds
destroys pathogens of the smallest organisms
precipitates heavy metals
prevents the reproduction of aquatic plants
has a strengthening effect on the human body.
Thanks to painstaking cleaning and"magic"properties of silicon water, there is no need for additional chemical disinfection. Thus, overpaying because of the diatomite structure, not counting perfectly clean water, you get an additional prize in the form of a therapeutic and healing effect.
Visibility #3 - small cartridge installations
If you do not have the ability to live a permanent backwash of filters, and the water in the pool is relatively clean and does not require painstaking disinfection, buy a cheap cartridge filter. It is a small oblong installation in the form of a tube with a very ordinary internal device. Near the lid is a compartment for the replacement cartridge and a polyethylene pocket for garbage. Water penetrates through the filter matter of the cartridge, and large contaminants and small particles settle for the day, collecting in a bag. To buy cartridge filters, pay homage for such reasons, such as the density and thickness of filter inserts, the power or speed of filtration, the type of collector (bag for garbage collection)
There are abundant types of cartridges, differing in appearance and features. For example, coal elements excellently shed a bitter spirit, and inserts with ion-exchange resin are destroyed by bacteria. However, for the sake of the basins it is better to extract a special expendable matter with the polyphosphate salt. One of the main advantages of a cartridge filter is the ease of maintenance. The reward takes a minimum of time, and to be washed a healthy porous matter is cleaned very vividly
At some point, the cartridge will become unusable, and the pocket will be clogged with garbage. Cleaning is ordinary: you should wash the plates of the cartridge near the water jet, and the pocket is through the mud and reward for the room. After a few cleaning procedures, the replacement element must be changed. It is allowed to buy in a special store at a cost of 125 rubles. Manufacturers advise to change cartridges according to their wear and tear, in other words, rewards can happen in a week, and through the moon. From hygienic judgments it is better not to drag with the purchase of a new element.
Like true to choose a filter pump?
All kinds of filters can exist as an integral part of filter pumps - devices for the organization of circulation and water purification in the pool. The situation is equipped with a massive engine with waterproof insulation, who ensures the course of the water. Filters for the sake of primary or deep cleaning are included in the range, and some are sold separately. It is proud to take into account the characteristics of power and speed, so as to be error-free, do not equip the impotent pump with a too effective filter or in reverse. In rare cases, the filter pump is not lowered to the ground, but is installed above the water level. The highest elevation is 2 meters
A large proportion of self-priming pumps have integrated filters designed to clean a bit of dirty water, a more painstaking finish asks for the purchase of additional equipment or chemical disinfection. The situation is placed in a special container and buried in the ground close to the pool by half or all of this so that it remains to be able to unimpeded access. The filter pumps are equipped with a primary filter for rough cleaning - a plastic mesh basket with small cells that detain a large waste: leaves, twigs, grass
Be buying pay attention to the restrictions. A large proportion of models make the function follow the following characteristics:
t? air - before 60? C;
t? water - before 40? C;
The burden is before 2.5 (3.5) bar.
Better models with continuous operation. The popular name Intex produces ready-made kits - inflatable or frame pools + filter pumps with a salt water system that ensures safe swimming without the use of chlorine
Ordinary circulating and centrifugal pumps pump water without the ability to clean it, so the filter should be accurate, and better if there are quite two of them. Main serves for the sake of preparatory filtration and protection of equipment, it produces screening of abrasive and long-fiber fragments. The 2nd more painstakingly cleans water through suspensions and small particles and ensures the safety of bathing.
Which is a skimmer and do you need it?
The usual, however useful structure - the skimmer - is able to eat through large contaminants before 8% of the water in the pool, hence it is often used in conjunction with filter equipment. In appearance, he recalls a plastic or metal tank with a drainage system in the lower part, the upper part is provided with an opening for the sake of water intake.
Some models of skimmers have extended functions:
create a mixture of debris from the water surface
are a kind of"beacons"for the sake of determining the depth and water level;
serve as equipment for the sake of chemical cleaning.
There are two types of skimmers: hanging and integrated. For the sake of open type swimming pools, a pair of type is suitable, all their choices are dependent on the design of the pool. For the sake of a stationary tank, it is better to remove the built-in system with a water intake located along the sides, and for the sake of inflatable and wireframe models it is better to have suspension devices that have special fasteners. There are exceptions, if the whole body of water is already installed without a cleaning system - rough filtration can also be done with the help of suspension equipment. Integrated skimmernaya order of water purification in the pool does not interfere with bathing and aqua games: holes for the sake of taking water are placed on the sides, and a negotiable book occurs at the bottom, near the water.
The simplest structure for the sake of the pool is a skimmer-trap. Serves for the sake of collecting large and small debris floating for the water surface: impassive weeds and branches, leaves, wool
The installation of suspended skimmers for the sake of inflatable pools and frame structures is very ordinary: the adjustable clamp is strengthened steadily for the rim, and the filter is lowered into the water, placing it for the water surface or slightly below. To be installed at least some kind of devices must take into account the prevailing wind direction, so that stagnant zones are not created, and skimmers grasp the entire edge of the accumulation of debris.
So, be the choice of a filtration system for the type of pool, its size and the size of the water. For the sake of small-sized designs of a fairly cheap sand or cartridge filter with a pump, for the sake of a huge outdoor pool in the courtyard of the house there must be a situation involving fairly filters, a strong pump, a heating system and a control unit.
