Public swimming pool in Trauchgau
(Germany)
Pool attendant Engelbert Kienle (Trauchgau) was some years ago offered a wager. One of his friends bet he could identify revitalised water twenty-four hours after it had been revitalised. Mr Kienle lost the bet. As a result he was convinced enough to install a revitalising device in the swimming pool.
The first result: “After a few days it was clear to me that this was an important thing for the pool. The water is different, it is milder now, and I can manage with less chlorine. People benefit very much from this because the water is softer to the skin, irritations of the eyes have noticeably decreased, and it is less harmful to the environment.”
The second result: constant water checks by the Public Health Office over a period of four years – did not result in any complaints regarding the germ count, although the amount of chlorine added was below the recommended level.
