Chlorine free Swimming Pool Disease transmission in swimming pools occurs when germs/infectious agents are introduced in the swimming pool water, mainly by bathers, and then other bathers come into contact with them. There are many infections that may be transmitted by swimming pools. The infections mainly infect the skin, ears, eyes, noses, lungs even the gastro intestinal tract. Also arising are symptoms such as skin sores, conjunctivitis in the eyes, running noses, burst ear drums, pneumonia, vomiting and diarrhoea. Disinfectants for swimming pool treatment must meet certain standards. They ought to be safe and non-irritating to swimmers and other pool staff. They must be remaining active in lower doses. Unlike drinking water treatment, swimming pool disinfectants must be dynamic in the pool since microbial contamination and small scale pathogens are always added to the water. Hence, it is ideal for the water to maintain a little quantity of disinfectant to avoid re-contamination. The disinfectant needs to be nontoxic and safe to use. Silver Hydrogen Peroxide emerges as a clear winner in swimming pool disinfectants. Easily dosed at 1L for every lakh liters of pool water once in every three days , with an easy handling procedure, it poses no threat to human life. The procedure for disinfection is also simple, just adding raw silver hydrogen peroxide to the swimming pool, left for an earmarked time, and effective sanitation is achieved. Silver Hydrogen Peroxide is a broad spectrum multipurpose biocide, degrading into water and oxygen, with no other toxic residue build-up. The store and depot action of silver makes it more effective at a low concentration for a long period of time.
