Pool Chemical Operating Cost Comparison
-
Report on a N. Indiana Power cost comparison of pool operating costs, comparing a Prozone ozone system, stabilizied chlorine, and Bacquicil. Although some caution is warranted, since this is a report of a report, the data shown is fairly consistent with our experience. Note that the chlorine pool may not have been operated well, since chlorine odors are mentioned, and they are NOT normal on a properly operated outdoor pool. Also, the study does not account for the large initial investment required for the ozone system, but not for chlorine or Bacquicil.

If you are looking for a pool to swim laps in, it's your best resource on the web (or off, now that the book is out of print). Just be prepared for a sometimes sluggish site or search engine. I wouldn't say anything to the webmaster though; he's not likely to appreciate it, and may explain that your problem is that you are net newbie.

The two sites above have a HUGE number of links to clubs, from age-group to university, and many other competitive swimming links. The second is a personal page, and is so valuable, I've archived a copy here, in case it ever goes down!

Using the Heimlich Manuever to Save
- NOTE: The American Red Cross and the American Heart Association
is NOT happy with Dr. Heimlich and
Ellis & Associates (who train and audit the guards at over 80%
of waterparks, world wide). Go to our commercial
page for more on the controversy. At least part of the ARC's and
AHA's objection is that it will confuse people about how to do CPR.
