Phasis prevents limescale to give crystal clear water

Within 4 weeks of Phasis installation, your water will be much clearer than ever. It may take longer with older pipes in pools with very hard water. In the first month, Phasis will expel the limescale in suspension from the pipes. In hard water areas, the water will be slightly whitish at first, especially if the tubes are not new.

Salt chlorinator free of limescale

Phasis prevents limescale in hard water areas and eliminates existing limescale in a  chlorinator.  Phasis avoids breakdowns to facilitate better performance in the summer.

Anti-Bacteria  & Anti-Fixed Chlorine

The Phasis oscillatory vibrations break down fixed chlorine as it passes through the ferrite ring, releasing it as free chlorine. The  vibrations also kill bacteria. Phasis eliminates bio-film in the pipes, as the limescale is removed, reducing the possibility of bacteria.

Phasis reduces chlorine consumption

Hydroflow allows chlorine consumption to be reduced by up to 50% in a pool in a hard water area, reducing costs and making bathing a pleasure.

Phasis requires shorter backwashes, reducing water loss

HydroFlow flocculates electronically.  Large flocs are created that are trapped in the filter, and do not penetrate the sand. The result is that less time is needed to backwash the filter, with less water loss.

Phasis keeps the water line clean

In hard water pools, the level is often as high as possible to avoid dirty limescale stains on the water line, resulting in spilled water. Phasis prevents the formation of limescale and dirty stains.   It is practical to keep the pool a little less full, reducing  the loss of spilled water.  Less make-up water means less chlorine and acidic pH are needed to keep the water stable.

HIGH pH CONTROL (hard water)
Hard (alkaline) water has a high pH, ​​which normally results in limescale. Phasis prevents the formation of lime scale, prevents over-saturation and prevents the pool from being too alkaline. With HydroFlow, the pool can operate at a higher pH than previously allowed, without the need for acid to control the pH level.

LOWER TDS LEVELS RESULT IN LESS CHLORAMINES
TDS (Total Dissolved Solids) is the measure of particulates in water. In a normal pool, it can be higher than 1500 ppm. With Phasis flocculation, filters work better, and TDS can be reduced by around 500 ppm. This has a direct effect on the effectiveness of the chlorine and levels of chloramines and fixed chlorine.   Chlorine becomes fixed when it combines with particles in the water.   Fewer particles in the water means less fixed chlorine.

Phasis avoids red eye and itchy skin

A pool is healthier with less chlorine, less limescale and less bacteria. Users of a phasis pool do not suffer from ear infections, red eyes or skin irritations.

Phasis water proofing prolongs useful life

The Phasis is water proof, guaranteeing a long useful life. The manufacture in Germany is to high standards.

The dangers of chlorine / bromine and how Hydroflow can reduce them

Leave a comment

Hydroflow floculates  electronically to reduce the absorbtion of chlorine through the skin,

CHLORINE / BROMINE DANGERS

We have long accepted Chlorine / bromine as necessary evils to keep the water safe from bacteria like e-coli and diseases like polio.

However there is a problem.  Chlorine and bromine have the same structure as iodine, which is important in the production of hormones by the thyroid gland.  When chlorine gets into your body, the thyroids absorb it, taking it as iodine, and displace the iodine that you need for good health.  click Amy Mayers MD on thyroids or click Amy Mayers PDF for more information.  You can buy her products, but much better attack the source of the problem with Hydroflow.

Chlorine gets in to your body when you drink it and through your skin when you bathe or shower in chlorinated water.  Skin is a membrane, it absorbs as well as releases/sweats.

Over exposure to swimming pool chlorine or jacuzzi bromine has been linked to a number of conditions.

See also 10 Dangers of Bromine.  Nevertheless, bromine is better in an enclosed space, because the bromamines are much less likely to become airborne and cause respiratory problems.

HYDROFLOW  SINE WAVE TECNOLOGY

Hydroflow uses sine waves within an electric field to condition hard water.  The waves are long wave, absolutely nothing to do with magnets or electro magnets.

Hydroflow uses random signals to charge the ions in the water. The charge is positive or negative which draw the ions together to form clusters, which are held in suspension.  These clusters then attract the larger calcium carbonate molecules.  When there is a change of temperature or pressure / turbulence, the salts precipitate and crystals are formed.  The salt crystals form around the Hydroflow clusters, which act as nuclei.  They do not attach themselves to the surfaces, which explains why Hydroflow prevents incrustations of limescale.

The Hydroflow clusters also attract particles in the water and provoke a physical flocculation.

By grouping the particles together, including particles of chlorine/bromine, Hydroflow creates big round flocs that will not penetrate the sand in a swimming pool filter, improving filtration.  When Hydroflow is used to pre-treat hard water before a Reverse Osmosis system, the physical flocculation prevents the chemicals from penetrating the RO membranes.  With Hydroflow you never need to chemically clean as RO system, provided it is periodically washed with osmotized water.  In homes with very hard water, there are so many clusters that turbulence is not need to provoke flocculation.

POOL WATER IS SAFER WITH HYDROFLOW

The skin is a membrane.  Without Hydroflow, it will absorb chlorine  used to disinfect pool water.  This explains why you still smell of chlorine after you have showered after your swim.

Hydroflow flocculates physically to form clusters of particles which do not penetrate a membrane.  In the same way,  In a Hydroflow pool, the chlorine/bromine clusters do not penetrate the skin, making a pool or jacuzzi much more healthy.

After a swim in a Hydroflow pool, you do not smell of chlorine, your skin is not dry and itchy and you do not get ‘red eye’.  Hydroflow makes a chlorinated pool much safer.

Hydroflow complements other treatments like salt based chlorinators or Ultra-violet.  Hydroflow is a must have for the pool.

  • Hydroflow kills bacteria,
  • breaks down chloramines.
  • prevents limescale,
  • eliminates limescale and bio-film from the surfaces,
  • reduces the chlorine /bromine in the pool by as much as 50%
  • reduces toxicity of the air in contact with the pool
  • flocculates to increase the particle size of chlorine/bromine and prevent it penetrating the skin.
  • flocculates to improve filtration and reduces water loss through shorter back-washes.

By reducing the amount of chlorine in the pool, Hydroflow also improves the air quality on the surface of a pool.

A JACUZZI IS MORE HEALTHY WITH HYDROFLOW

Many public jacuzzis use water already decalcified.  A decalcifier based on salt will take out some of the chlorine and it necesary to add more chlorine to meet the legal requirement for 0.8 to 2 parts per million (ppm).  Decalcified water will stop limescale, it  will also  corrode any metal in the circuit. Most importantly, Hydroflow needs conductivity and will not function with decalcified water.

If the jacuzzi uses mains water or sea water, , then Hydroflow can be used to complement the chlorine / bromine with the same benefits.

  • Hydroflow kills bacteria,
  • breaks down chloramines/ bromines,
  • prevents limescale,
  • eliminates limescale and bio-film from the surfaces,
  • reduces the chlorine /bromine in thejacuzzi by as much as 50%
  • reduces toxicity of the surface air in jacuzzis using chlorine
  • avoids unsightly froth on the surface.
  • flocculates to increase the particle size of chlorine/bromine and prevent it penetrating the skin.
  • flocculates to improve filtration and reduces water loss through shorter backwashes.
TAP WATER IS BETTER WITH HYDROFLOW

There is chlorine in drinking water, which will affect your thyroids.  Hydroflow conditions the water, it does not filter it.  So to avoid chlorine in your drinking  water, you need a filter,  a carbon filter or by a domestic reverse osmosis system.  Neither are normally 100% effective.  Carbon only completely absorbs chlorine if water is in the filter for 4 minutes, which rarely happens.  Reverse Osmosis normally does not eliminate all the chlorine, unless the water is pre-treated.

This is where HydroFlow really helps.  Hydroflow flocculates physically, as above.  Carbon filters work better with Hydroflow trapping the chlorine clusters, so that carbon filtered water pre-treated by Hydroflow has  less chlorine content.

SHOWER WATER IS HEALTHIER WITH HYDROFLOW

Chlorine combines with hard water to irritate the skin.  The chlorine will also be absorbed by the skin.  HydroFlow prevents hard limescale, we know.  Hydroflow also provokes a physical flocculation that groups the particles in clusters, including the chlorine. The flocs/ clusters make it difficult for the chlorine to penetrate the skin, which is what causes problems with itchy skin, dry and thinning hair etc.
