HANOVIA’S DUBAI SWIMLINE LAUNCH A HUGE SUCCESS


Hanovia successfully launched its SwimLine and other UV disinfection systems at an event in Dubai last month. Over 50 visitors from the region, including journalists and representatives from some of the world’s leading hotel chains, attended the day-long event, where they learnt of the benefits of using UV to treat swimming pools and spas. With over 85 years’ experience in UV technology, Hanovia was able to use this knowledge and experience to educate the attendees on the real benefits of using UV for treating their pool water. The event was also supported by a third party representative, Ian Nicks from PWTAG. Ian was able to provide a more independent view on the benefits of UV for pool operators. Hanovia’s SwimLine UV system is a low footprint, low maintenance and, more importantly, an environmentally friendly way of ensuring pool and spa water is free from harmful microorganisms. It offers twofold protection for pool operators: water disinfection and


the removal of combined chlorines. More importantly, because SwimLine dramatically reduces the amount of chlorine required, there is correspondingly less backwashing and dilution, less waste and notably purer water. The air around the pool is also much more pleasant – a significant factor for enclosed, indoor pools. Attendees gave the event 5 out of 6 in a post-event survey, with all saying it was well worth attending. Comments included, “A valuable seminar for maintaining pools, and good hosts” (Hi-Tech Water Technologies LLC, Dubai) and “6 out of 6” (Le Meridian, Dubai).


The day was such a success that Hanovia is planning another one in 2013, with the location still to be confirmed. The event was co- hosted by Hanovia’s local distributor, WET (Water & Environmental Technologies).

FUNDING NEEDED FOR 5 YEAR OLD IRISH POOL The Irish Government has come to the aid of a


struggling leisure centre that closed unexpectedly in April. More than €163,000 was allocated to Ballybunion Swimming Pool and Leisure Centre in Co Kerry. Just five years old, the facility was opened with much fanfare by former Sports Minister John O’Donoghue after a 15-year local campaign. It closed suddenly and unexpectedly in April when power was cut off. Arts Minister Jimmy Deenihan, in whose constituency the pool is located, said the funding had been allocated because support had been promised by the community and from local schools.
