Walking on water: a Vancouver spa puts its own spin on the concept of
hydrotherapy. At a
waterfront getaway it's only natural that your clients would want to
soak up the healing power of the sea. At the Kingfisher Oceanside
Resort and Spa, however, the aquatic adventure awaits indoors, not
out.
Last year the Kingfisher enhanced its
spa by opening the $1 million Pacific Mist Hydropath, billed as
a walking tour that immerses clients in the powers of the Northwestern
coastline.
"We
wanted to create a hydrotherapy circuit with a West Coast flair to it,
something that complements our resort's oceanside setting," said
Kingfisher sales and marketing director Tor Nawrot.
Best Water Filters
Management at a large fitness and
leisure complex based in North Kentucky were keen to improve water
quality and clarity, minimise chemical use, reduce overheads and
operate in a more ecologically friendly matter in their three pools.
As a result, they decided to trial Hydropath’s patented water
conditioning technology over a period of four weeks.
Units from Hydropath’s AquaKlear range were tested. The P100 was
fitted to the water pipe before the filters and a W63 unit was fitted
to the waterslide inlet pipe. Tests were carried out over a period of
two weeks prior to the installation of the units to provide baseline
figures, and results were recorded after the AquaKlear units were
installed. Success was measured by recording water usage during
backwashing, chemical usage and utility costs.
The products patented technology
works by emitting randomly varying electric fields throughout the
system to ensure suspended calcium ions do not adhere to pipework or
internal surfaces.Hydropath products offer cost savings in energy
requirements and maintenance as well as superior environmental
benefits.Hydropath is the alternative to chemical water treatment.
Hydropath Technology quite simply prevents scale build up,breakdowns
existing scale,kills bacteria,improves water quality,eliminates
bio-fouling with no chemical input and negligible running costs
guaranteed(see guarantee terms and conditions).
