Choosing the right pool equipment

Choosing the right pool equipment

It is essential to select high-quality equipment for your pool, to guarantee it will last for a long time and to ensure optimal user comfort.

It is essential to select high-quality equipment for your pool, to guarantee it will last for a long time and to ensure optimal user comfort. Kripsol® offers a comprehensive range, from filtration to maintenance, enabling you to equip your pool effectively and transform it into a relaxing space that will last. 

 

Compulsory equipment for a pool 

White goods 

White goods – return fittings, main drains, skimmers and grids – are fixed elements integrated into the pool structure, essential for water circulation. At Kripsol®, counter-current swimming systems (Sena and Calipso) broaden the possibilities for exercise and relaxation in the pool. These high-quality parts ensure water circulation remains optimal, and will resist wear and chemical conditions. 

Kripsol® Tip: opt for chemical-resistant white goods to avoid costly replacement works in the long term. 

The pool hydraulic circuit 

The hydraulic circuit is composed of the network of pipes and valves that provide correct water circulation. Kripsol® proposes electrical cabinets specially designed for pools: the K-Power Connect (connected via Bluetooth) and the K-Power for overflow pools. With these cabinets, the lighting or heating functions and the flow rate of the pool can be managed effectively, ensuring optimal safety and control of the circuit.

 Kripsol® Tip: a good hydraulic circuit reduces pressure losses and improves energy efficiency. Include connections for equipment you may install in the future, such as a heating system.

Filtration equipment 

Filtration is essential for keeping the water in your pool clean and clear, making it a key element of the system. Kripsol® has a varied range of pumps and filters, offering solutions to suit the needs of each pool.

Amongst single-speed pumps, the models KS and KS EVO provide effective filtration for most pools, whereas Ondina is specifically designed for small residential pools. For more efficient energy use management, Kripsol also offers variable speed pumps, such as KS EVO VS and KSE VS, which automatically adjust the filtration flow rate to meet the pool requirements, thus optimising the energy costs. 

The sand filters GTV and GLV are perfect for standard installations, guaranteeing reliable filtration, in addition to the S1 and S2 models which offer an ideal solution. For even better filtration performance, combine these filters with our filtration media Vitrafil, which will reduce the number of backwashes to an average of 1 per month. 

Kripsol® Tip: to choose the most suitable pump and filter model, calculate the volume of your pool and choose a power corresponding to your specific requirements. The right choice will guarantee optimal performance and improve the longevity of your filtration system.

Pool spotlights 

For pleasant lighting that creates a safe space, flat LED spotlights by Kripsol® add an attractive touch to your pool and are energy-efficient. These LED spotlights are long-lasting, sustainable, and offer a range of colours which create an elegant atmosphere for those who like to bathe at night. 

Kripsol® Tip: LED spotlights consume less energy whilst offering varied and long-lasting lighting options. Think about your pool lighting during the pool design phase to make its installation easier. 

Optional equipment for more comfort and better performance 

Heating system 

A heating system extends the bathing season and improves comfort. The i-Komfort heat pump by Kripsol® is a Full Inverter model with Wi-Fi connectivity, which automatically adapts its power depending on the weather conditions, thus offering energy savings of up to 30 %. Thanks to this technology, you can maintain the water at a pleasant temperature without increasing your energy costs excessively. 

Kripsol® Tip: plan to include a heat pump when you are constructing your installation, to avoid additional works. Also make sure you choose a pump suitable for your pool size. 

Water treatment systems 

Maintaining clean, healthy water is essential for the safety and comfort of bathers. Kripsol® offers several treatment solutions, including the KLX Control System and the KLB salt chlorinator. The KLX Control System, also available in a low salinity model, goes beyond simple salt chlorinators by offering advanced connectivity via the MyKripsolPool platform. Thanks to this application, it is possible to monitor the water parameters in real time, control filtration and lighting remotely, directly from a smartphone or a computer. 

For those who are looking for a simple, autonomous treatment solution, the KLB is an ideal alternative. This dosing system automatically injects liquid chlorine or active oxygen to provide continuous disinfection, effectively eliminating bacteria and viruses. 

Other than disinfection, it is critical to monitor the chemical equilibrium of the water. The TAC (Total Alkalinity), the TH (Hydrometric Titer) and the pH (hydrogen potential) must be maintained in specific ranges to guarantee the effectiveness of treatment products and avoid corrosion, scaling-up, green water or biofilms. A pH regulator, for example, keeps the pH automatically at an optimal level between 7 and 7.2, thus simplifying water management. 

Kripsol® Tip: in order to maintain optimal chemical equilibrium and guarantee equipment durability, Kripsol® recommends the use of automatic regulation products such as Pool Lt, Pool pH, Pool RX, and Pool RX Socket. These solutions adjust the TAC, the TH and the pH, ensuring maximum effectiveness of the treatment products whilst preventing corrosion and calcium deposits. 

Pool cleaners 

Pool maintenance becomes easy with an automatic cleaning robot. The cleaner Atlantis Evo by Kripsol® is a practical and effective solution for keeping the floor, walls and waterline in perfect condition. This robot is compatible with various coatings (concrete, reinforced vinyl, fibreglass), and this versatility makes it suitable for a range of pool types. It also comes with a cart, making it easier to tidy away and transport around your pool. 

Kripsol® Tip: choose a pool cleaner suitable for the size and shape of your pool to optimise its coverage. An automatic pool cleaner is an investment that reduces time spent on manual maintenance and extends the lifetime of your pool.

Pool cover systems 

A pool cover offers several practical benefits: it reduces the debris in the water, limits evaporation and stabilises the temperature of the pool, even on cooler nights. In addition to improving maintenance of the water, it plays an essential role in safety, limiting the risks of children and animals falling into the pool. 

Kripsol® Tip: to combine safety and convenience, opt for a cover compliant with safety standards. Roller shutters, although they are more expensive, last longer and are easier to use, whereas a safety cover offers an effective and more financially-accessible alternative, providing essential protection for your pool. 

In summary 

Kripsol® offers a full range of reliable, high-performance equipment to meet the specific requirements of each pool, whether for filtration, heating, water treatment or maintenance. By investing in these high-quality solutions, you guarantee the longevity of your installation whilst enjoying a pleasant pool that is easy to maintain, with long-lasting comfort and peace of mind on a daily basis.
