Briefl y discuss the three advantages heat pumps with scroll compressors Defi ne coeffi cient of performance Activity: Using Appendix J - Calculation Formulas, do several heater sizing calculations. Key Points: Discuss ways to prevent energy loss. These include: In outdoor pools, shelters such as trees, fences, plants, etc. help reduce convection and evaporation energy loss due to wind. In indoor pools, control air-to-water temperature differences. To keep heat in the water, the air temperature should be between 1°-2.5°C warmer than the water. In indoor pools, control relative humidity. Relative humidity should be maintained between 40% to 60%. Covers reduce the loss of energy due to convection, radiation, and evaporation by about 50% to 70%. Key Points: Explain that, for indoor pools, proper air circulation is as important as proper water circulation. For example, during breakpoint chlorination, waste and by-product gasses evaporate into the air directly above the water. If poor air circulation does not remove these gasses, they will dissolve back into the pool water, drastically increasing the combined chlorine levels of the water and making the breakpoint chlorination process useless. Discuss the considerations for designing proper air circulation. These include: Humidity control. Ventilation requirements for air quality (outdoor and exhaust air). Be sure to follow the ASHRAE requirement of 2.4 litres per second per square metre of pool and deck area Air distribution. Air duct design. Evaporation rates. Pool water chemistry. Key Points: Discuss the operation recommendations for air control systems. These include: Maintain relative humidity between 40%-60%. Less than 40% makes the air too dry and increases evaporation. More than 60% encourages condensation and corrosion problems. Maintain the air temperature between 1°-2.5°C greater than the water temperature. Air velocity should not exceed 0.13 metres/second a point 2.4 metres above the walking deck. Any faster creates a “breeze” that may cause discomfort to swimmers. Any slower will not be suffi cient to remove waste and by-product gasses. Since re-circulated air contains waste and by-product gasses, suffi cient outdoor air must be mixed with the indoor air to keep it fresh. Most recommendations suggest at least a 50% mix of fresh air and recirculated air. When outside temperatures allow, 100% outside air is preferred. The entire volume of air should recirculate four to six times an hour. Recommend that students enroll in and take the Indoor Air Quality online course from NSPF. Final Questions: Ask the participants if they have any questions pertaining to the lesson they have just completed. If there are participants who are still having trouble with the concepts of this lesson, offer additional help during a break or after class. Page 80 © 2014 National Swimming Pool Foundation®
Chapter 13 – Spa and Therapy Operations Handbook: Pages 161-172 Suggested Time: PowerPoint Slides: Materials: 60 minutes Chapter 13 Slides Spas video demo (from the Instructor DVD) Objectives: At the end of this lesson, the student will be able to: List the benefi ts associated with hot water pools/spas List the patron safety risks commonly associated with poorly managed spas List fi ve operational considerations specifi cally associated with hot water spas Explain why pool water chemistry is more of a concern in warm water facilities List fi ve guidelines for safe patron use of spas and hot water pools Leading Questions: What are the benefi ts of a spa or therapy pool? If any of you operate both a pool and a spa, which requires most of your time? Are there any special things that you do differently with your spa that you do not normally do with your pool? What operational differences are there between a pool and a spa? From a safety aspect, is a spa more dangerous than a pool? Video Demo: Show the Spas video demo from the Instructor DVD. Key Points: Discuss that spas and hot water therapy pools have been around for over 2,000 years and that the use of spas and therapy pools is one of the fastest growing areas in the aquatics industry. Explain that while there are numerous benefi ts, both mentally and physically, a casual attitude regarding the care and maintenance of spas and therapy pools can get a spa operator into trouble. Explain that hot water pools and spas create a whole new set of problems that a pool does not have and a thorough understanding of these differences can be the difference between a safe environment and one that can be extremely hazardous to the health and well being of users. Key Points: Discuss the health benefi ts of hot water. These include: Relieves stress Relieves muscular and joint pain and discomfort Allows relaxed movement of joints and muscles affected by disease or injury © 2014 National Swimming Pool Foundation® Page 81
