Stainless steel pool – hygiene, durability and maintenance

Stainless steel as a hygienic material

As such, stainless steel is suitable where hygiene is very important. These are also medical institutions that have high hygiene standards. This is because smooth surfaces prevent contamination from microorganisms and at the same time make cleaning easier. Dirt is difficult to form and retain on the smooth surface of the walls, so the use of this material is optimal for allergy sufferers, asthmatics or atopic patients. Recent research has shown that metal ions have a positive effect on suppressing and destroying bacteria and do not harm the human body.

The surface of stainless steel is smooth and porous. From a hygienic point of view, it is better than a classic ceramic tile with joints. As a result, the consumption of disinfectants and chemicals required for maintenance and cleaning is lower. The circulating hydraulics of stainless steel pools, where all nozzles are located in the bottom of the pool, thus guarantees perfect mixing of the water in the pool without “dead corners” and places where water does not circulate.

Longevity and sustainability of a stainless steel pool

When you compare stainless steel with other materials for a pool in the garden, then the stainless steel design is unbeatable in terms of durability. Stainless steel was invented in 1931 and immediately spread to many industries, various scientific fields, construction, food and medicine.

In addition to its strength and extraordinary durability, we value stainless steel as a corrosion-resistant material. This is true if the stainless steel pool is properly cared for. They are also ideal for those who prefer chlorine-free water treatment. Stainless steel is also suitable for swimming pools with sea salt if you choose a type of stainless steel that is designed for water with sea salt.

Stainless steel is also popular due to its sustainability. It is a 100% recyclable material, repeatedly and without loss of quality. As such, stainless steel is made only from natural materials without the contribution of chemicals. These include iron, chromium, nickel, and several other metals. The carbon footprint that is created during the production of a stainless steel pool is offset by its long service life, while the production process consumes a minimum amount of fuels and is thus environmentally neutral.

Maintenance of stainless steel swimming pool

Maintenance of a stainless steel pool requires regular cleaning, adherence to certain rules and concentrations of pool chemicals or salt. It depends on the technology you choose. If you have purchased a turnkey stainless steel pool with the recommended technology and you avoid excessive use of pool chemicals and chlorine, then you do not have to worry about the permanently submerged areas of the stainless steel pool at all.

At the end of the swimming season, it is recommended to clean stainless steel elements that are not regularly immersed from calcium deposits and surface impurities. We recommend using stainless steel products, silicone oil or lemon juice polish.
However, it is necessary to choose the right quality of stainless steel material that will match your operating conditions. In this case, your stainless steel pool will easily last you 50 to 100 years. As an expert with 25 years of experience, you can help you with this. Tell us about your vision.
