3. Introduction
Chlorine is used worldwide for sanitation with proven efficacy
Chlorine has well known disadvantages
Ozone can be a good alternatives like other oxidizing compounds
The actions of most oxidizing compounds have results limited to the water phase only
AquaFinesse water care product are specifically designed to mitigate the biofilm

4. Introduction 2
A slow release sanitizing tablet (dispenser) is used on top of the hot tub filter system for extra bactericidal effect in the filter elements or a sanitizing tablet in the skimmer of the pool
Nearly all bacteria (99%) will settle on a substrate and metamorphose to their sessile form ending up in a slime layer
Thick biofilms are hardly be penetrated by oxidising compounds so excessive chlorine concentrations are necessary to remove biofilms
25ppm for 48 hours

5. Product Description What is AquaFinesse?
-AquaFinesse is a proprietary solution that
works to eliminate biofilm, bacteria, calcium
and scale buildup from pools, hot tub water,
and equipment
-Works in conjunction with ozone and UV
systems to operate with a very low doses of
sanitizers
-Softens water and adds a light lavender scent to hot tubs

12. Biofilm Formation
Biofilm is the slimy, sticky substance adhering to the walls and especially inside the tubing of hot tubs and pools, consisting of xPS (extra cellular Polymeric Substances) and its bacteria population, including grazers
Biofilm formation change in thickness and consistency, creating varying substrata, which can withstand to a certain level most current biocides
Biofilm protects bacteria and provides a perfect multiplication environment
Biofilms will absorb nutrients introduced into the tub or pool. (skin, oils, body fluids etc.) serving as food source for the bacteria
Also in older tubs and pools biofilm formation is found in conjunction with scaling

13. Biofilm Formation 2
Biofilm sequence of sticking molecules, initial colonisation by bacteria and final stage ending up in a toad-stool like layer with channels creating different environments for bacteria populations

14. Biofilm Formation 3
Example of the combination of biofilm, algae and scaling

15. Human pathogens
A hot tub could be the perfect breeding ground for bacteria due to biofilm development nutrition and warm water when untreated
Generally, keeping the biofilm formation to zero or low by the described cleaning procedures, including the filter cleaning and use the sanitizing tablet the chance for infection by human pathogens will be negligible

16. Mode of action of AquaFinesse & Pool Puck
• AquaFinesse and Pool Puck is a new and patented product developed to penetrate the biofilm, loosening and coagulating it up from its substrate
The filter system will remove the debris from the water
The optional extra safety precaution of a slow release sanitizing tablet in a dispenser on top of the filter system for hot tubs or in the skimmer for pools was developed to ensure complete disinfection of the filter elements

17. Mode of action of AquaFinesse & Pool Puck
Dispersed bio-film is flushed into the tub filter which must be cleaned frequently (every three days) when starting an older tub (more than 6 months old) with AquaFinesse or Pool Puck
• AquaFinesse and Pool Puck will eliminate bacteria numbers considerably by cleaning up the biofilm, and most be used with oxidizing compound
Pool Puck will reduce chlorine use by up to 70% after the 1st 30 days
With little or no bacteria the chlorine has nothing to do so it you will have lots of free chlorine Save time, save cost and stop the smell of chlorine
A must have for indoor pools, no shocking, no heavy chlorine smell

18. General application of AquaFinesse & Pool Puck
Dispersed bio-film is flushed into the filter which must be cleaned very frequently (every three days) when starting an older tub or pool (over 6 months) with AquaFinesse or Pool Puck
Rotate filters every three days for 7-10 day on a new tubs and for older tubs until water is clear. Finally rotate weekly, once the tub and water are conditioned
The filter system and ozone installation are the most important components with AquaFinesse™. Filters should be able to collect the fine debris left by bathers while AquaFinesse™ protects you and eliminates the growth of bacteria
The filter system and the sanitizing tablet protects and eliminates the growth of bacteria with Pool Puck

19. General application of AquaFinesse & Pool Puck
• AquaFinesse and Pool Puck also breaks down (calcium) scaling in the pool and hot tub and it is flushed into the filter, cleaning up all scaled parts over time
The water has to be conditioned by AquaFinesse and Pool Puck, this can take a couple of days when the tub or pool itself is new. Frequent filter rotation or cleaning are recommended for the first week
Starting AquaFinesse and Pool Puck with older hot tubs or pools, frequent filtration cleaning should be done more often because the breakdown of built up bio-film and scaling can last up to a month!

20. General Hot tub problems
Ozone installation is not working
Filter is not cleaned regularly giving odor problems or cloudy water
Jets not in operation several times a day for thoroughly mixing to facilitate correct ozonation and filtration
New hot tubs can already be scaled and fouled up due to testing in the factory and showroom
Oil on the water due to excessive use of body lotions

21. General pool problems Filter dirty and poor water circulation
Pool pump not running during all daylight hours
Sanitizer tablet used up
Old filter media
