    Superchlorination

    in Swimming Pools in France

    Posted

    yes, I have started this week using the chlorinetablets which contain the stabiliser to get some CYA in my pool, that's why my CYA is now 6 ppm where as a week ago it was zero. Will keep this up intill I reach 30 ppm.

    But to get rid of the combined chlorine I need to keep on adding more chlorine extra, maybe even 3-5 lters of javel 9.6% in one go, is this correct ?

    Must say that I'm a bit sorry I started with the superchlorination, because the combined level was only 0.5 ppm after having the pool in use for two months and the water has been christalclear, and still is, all that time. Just wanted to do it right and avoid problems later.

    Thanks again for your input, Théière

    A question regarding Superchlorination.

    I want to get rid of the combined chlorine in my pool ,30 M2, and I have read that I can do this by adding

    10 times more chlorine than the amount of combined chlorine.

    So my free chlorine was 1.0 and the total chorine was 1.5 ppm, giving a combined chlorine of 0.5 ppm

    I added 2 liters of bleach 9.6% which is a total of 6 ppm chlorine if my calculations are correct.

    But the day after my free chorine was 4.3 ppm and the total 5.2 ppm, so the combined chlorine was increased

    to 0.9 ppm !

    Did the same again, adding 3 liters of bleach, but again my combined chlorine has increased.

    Am I doing something wrong, or can you not superchlorinate with bleach, or have I still added

    too little perhaps ?

    Would very much appreciate some guidance, thanks in advance,

    Reporting foreign visitors to the gendarmes

    in Gite Owners Forum

    Posted

    Last year we had a visit from the Gendarmes asking us to fill in these forms, and we had another visit of them last week.

    We have a B&B in the Correze and apparently the Gendarmes are concerned about possible "terrorists" from the Pays Basque visiting the region to plot their evil deeds.

    We have not yet complied to do this, because it seems that we are one of the few, if not the only, in our neighbourhood who have been asked to do so.

    Hi Arnold,

    I started the thread about looking for a B&B in Normandy or Brittany and am sorry to have created a stir.

    But I don't see anything wrong with the question posed on a forum for B&B owners and I was expecting and even hoping for other B&B owners to respond. In the end it helps me give better service to my guests in a simple and harmless way.

     

    B&B in Brittany or Normandy

    Good morning all,

    we run a B&B in the Limousin and in the beginning of september we have a Dutch couple who after staying with us want to spend a few nights in a B&B in Brittany or Normandy.

    They asked us if we now of any nice places to stay and sadly we dont, but perhaps any of you do ?

    Thanks in advance

    Hi Arnold,

    we are based in the correze and had new septic tanks under the new regulations installed 3 years ago. They told us they would come and check every two years but I thought this being France they will probably forget. Turned out they did come, but also they checked all the septics in the village and they are all from before the new regulations. However none of them have to be upgraded to meet the regulations.

    So I think you will be ok.
