If you think your pool water is clean and hygienic, just because it sees clearly, once again. Yes, you may have shocked the water and added algaecide and even maintained a good chlorine, bromine, biguanide (Soft Swim or Baquacil) level, but you 've only about 1% of bacteria control in your swimming pool, yes, only 1 %. Where are the other 99%? can see at each pool surface, or you can not. And most of these places are virtually impossible to achieve. What now?
Themore we are dealing with swimming pools and problems, the more we know we're dealing with or treating symptoms and not the cause of the murky water and algae to build scale, etc. As I have pointed out in other articles, There are a variety of reasons for cloudy water from poor water chemistry, improper cleaning habits, poor circulation in the environment causes. And usually, these causes combine to create the problem.
As we look for the cause, we see more and more thatthere are real "problems" that are often not recognized. What do we mean? Have you noticed that there is a regular structure of the film on the pool liner, top and bottom of the walls or in corners? If you are a regular brusher, the problem is not so noticeable. What would happen if the filter apart for normal maintenance or cleaning and you will see a whitish film on the inside of the tank or the military or skimmer skimmer body?
All of these movies or mud are, what we call biofilms. InBiofilms live the other about 99% of all pool bacteria. The 1%, which is in the water, is called "plankton". Such as plankton or algae, plankton, bacteria floating freely in the water classification. This is the bacteria that your chlorine, bromine or other sanitizer can "easily" kill for. The 99% in the biofilm can be quite a different story and long-term headache. There are a lot of information about biofilm from institutions around the world to back my information to you. Montana State UniversityCenter for Biofilm Engineering is one of our main sources.
Biofilms in swimming pools and can often lead to be done to have prevented cloudy water, algae, calcification of the heating (that efficient heat) and even corrosion (biofilms can have a certain pH of approximately 1.0 - extremely acidic) of a metal surface of the pool system, including heater, filter parts, ladders, rails, etc.
First, what is a biofilm? A biofilm is a film or large amounts of bacteria that lives in and as a large colonyinto the microscopic world. In the "big" world, you could call a coral reef "biofilm." A biofilm is a self-sustaining and difficult to remove. Worst of all, love biofilm virtually any surface, especially wet or damp. But be careful, even after drying out, the biofilm is not necessarily dead but just sleeping. Did we mention that biofilms are relatively resistant to chlorine, bromine or other disinfectants?
Second form as biofilms? As just mentioned, biofilms form on aSurface. In your pool, the liner or the pool walls, floor, ladder rails, skimmer baskets ie, head treads) filter tank bodies, pump casings and impellers, direction and delivery charges (eyeballs, heating plumbing, and above all the piping. It is a 5-step process to the formation of biofilms: Attachment, colonization, security, growth, and finally what I as a distribution.
System is only as good measures of the bacteria on the surface. She wants to call a place toHome and grow. Bacteria want in relationships, so a nice surface calm and there are a few of her closest friends.
Notes After attaching it to the pool surface with their friends, colonization, such as bacteria divide and multiply site that is growing number studies have shown that it is at this crucial point that this plant "irreversible." The bacterial colony is there, unless removed remains to be targeted. This phase is usually achieved in a fewMinutes or hours at most.
In the protection phase of the colony against invading bacteria or biofilm begins to protect itself. Invasion by environmental factors, "lethal" chemicals (such as chlorine or bromine), robbers, all they want to destroy. In technical terms, which begins bacteria secrete a protective layer, called "exopolysaccharide" movie. The film is sticky or slimy and very cordial. Now, the biofilm is ready to experience explosive growth.
Like aCoral reef, the biofilm bigger and harder. Super Colonies of biofilm actually absorb certain chemicals, which were intended to destroy them. The chlorine or bromine may be composed of layers of the colony, are more susceptible to chlorine or bromine to kill, but is exhausted as a chlorine or bromine, the smaller, stronger, better protected classes still live and multiply. The good news is that the biofilm colony grows in size, there are more "cumbersome" and begins to breakapart. That's the bad news.
Now we have come full circle and come to the distribution, if they attach to other surfaces begin defective parts or different parts of the same surface. And the cycle begins anew.
By the way, Biofilms are everywhere. Swimming pools, spas, baths, kitchens, the funky look to your patio furniture, on the teeth (plaque is a biofilm), wherever a surface that can be wet.
Note that not all biofilms are bad. How? Some are usedin an industrial environment microcracks plug. But in pools ans spas, we want them.
