DeltaUV, which specializes in ultraviolet technology in North America, has brought the cleansing effects of Clean Light UV Technology to spa and hot tub water. The new EZ Spa Series uses powerful UV-C ray lamps to destroy microorganisms such as viruses, bacteria, algae, yeast and mold — the items that aren’t always eradicated with traditional chlorine and bromine — while reducing chemical use and eliminating chlorine odors, the company says.

ControlOMatic is pleased to announce the availability of TechniChlor, a new chlorine generator that supplies spas with continuous, around-the-clock chlorine without separate buttons, control boxes, or timers. In addition, TechniChlor offers a “boost mode” that is controlled by a system of simple ‘taps.’ If users simply ‘tap’ the device when exiting the spa, the device goes into “boost mode” and will operate three times longer than normal — meaning there’s no need to shock spa water after every use. The system is ideal for existing spas and hot tubs as no spa modifications are required, the company says.

Additional accessories may be viewed on the website.
