This month's roundup of new products includes new business software, a fire pit table, shampoo and conditioner for after swimming and more. Take a look below.
Product of the Month: Chlorinator Fix
The Chlorinator Fix offers pool service providers, operators and owners a better way to open a chlorinator. This product is a watertight chlorinator cap designed to prevent the chlorinator from leaking water — making it easier to open, add chlorine or bromine tablets, and close the chlorinator canister safely and securely. No special tools are needed to remove and secure the handle: Its unique, double-grip design allows the use of both hands to twist the handle on and off the chlorinator. This product is designed to fit both standard 6-inch (Hayward CL200 Series) and 3-inch (Pentair Rainbow Series) diameter chlorinator units.
The Chlorinator Fix kit is designed for larger 6-inch diameter chlorinators and includes three parts: an inner collar, an outer locking ring and a double-grip handle. The strategic placement of the O-ring gasket on top of the collar eliminates friction and deterioration, ensuring a watertight seal. Once the collar and locking ring are in place, they never have to be removed.

Pool Water Purification Products
Pool Water Purification Products' newest 18-foot trailer offers a 40 horsepower pump running from 150 to 180 gallons of water per minute. The deep bed sand filter ensures higher volume and flow with lightweight hoses that are easier to handle, the company says. The hose reels are larger and have been moved to the rear of the trailer for easy access. Using cam locks to attach the hose-to-hose reel makes it easier to connect, load and unload the hoses.
