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 manner in their three pools. 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. Success was measured by recording water usage during backwashing, chemical usage and utility costs. Two weeks following the installation of the Hydropath units, improvements were shown in all areas. The water required for backwash to clear the filters was reduced by 156,000 gallons per year. Backwash sewerage costs were reduced by $4,212. This equates to an 80% decrease in total water costs a year. Chlorine and chemical use was reduced by 50% and gas consumption by 25%.
