THE OXYGEM SYSTEM is an application of the Alternative Water Treatment System (AWTS) which is protected by a world wide patent (PCT patent).
The AWTS in swimming pools is marketed as OxyGem
OxyGem represents a more natural and healthier alternative to chlorination
OxyGem is a copy of sanitation processes taking place in a human body. Apart from a mixed oxygen system, traces of metals are used as catalysts.
The most widely used pool water sanitation systems are still based on chlorination. This despite the fact that chlorination and chlorination by-products are known to cause major health problems including and especially cancer (if you have access to the internet, here are dozens of reports - www.google.com/search?sourceid=navclient&q=chlorination+cancer ).
One of the reasons for the continued use of chlorine is the fact that there are few really viable alternatives.
OxyGem developed by AquaGem Holdings Pty Ltd is finally such an alternative.
The AWTS has been successfully used and tested in cooling towers and hundreds of swimming pools over a number of years.
Apart from hundreds of tests conducted by independent and government recognized (NATA) laboratories, indicating the effectiveness of the AWT System, this approach is also supported as an alternative to chlorination by Clive Broadbent, Australia’s leading authority on water treatment with an international reputation.
As you can see on the following pages pool water treated with OxyGem is crystal clear. Furthermore the water can be used to water lawns and gardens and must be considered to be non toxic (Goldfish survive happily in our pool water). OxyGem represents a number of advantages over chlorination systems, including salt water chlorinators.
Here are some of the advantages of the OxyGem System:
- No more red eyes
- No taste or smell
- No bleaching of swim wear
- No more eleborate testing
- No more tiredness after swimming due to chlorine (chlorine is an antagonist to oxygen)
|
- Friendly to the environment, plants and grass
- Effective over wide range of pH
- Inexpensive to set up
- Virtually automatic operation
- No more dry skin
- Feeling invigorated (due to oxygen)
|
All that plus a friendly and reliable service.
With the OxyGem System we are making an important contribution to a healthier living and a cleaner environment.
