I am embarrassed, disgusted & fed up!!!
I have been unsuccessful in finding recycling channels for my soft plastics for product packaging, pallet transport wrapping, pool covers & salt bags. When I contact the suppliers to find out where I can send these items which they claim are recyclable, they can offer NO options….!!!
I can no longer afford to stockpile this potentially reusable resource anymore. I am tortured by the thought of it going into landfill…but I have run out of space!!
As our government is gutless and will not make the hard calls to try to save our environment, we need to put pressure on suppliers and manufacturers to introduce packaging stewardship. If they are responsible for recycling and disposal, they will be forced to find better packaging alternatives or find channels to actually process the materials they claim are recyclable. If it doesn't cost them to deal with it, why would they care?

I have been recommending Stu from Safeside Pool & Spa Barrier Inspections for a fair while now and I always get positive feedback from my clients.
Stu just helped and guided me through achieving compliance with my own Pool & Spa Barrier at home. There were quite a few issues that I needed to address, but Stu was extremely helpful and took the time to explain why & what options I had.
At all stages, I felt Stu was ensuring compliance but trying to help me work out the most cost-effective and safe solution.
If you need a certificate of compliance for your Pool &/or Spa Barrier I (even more so now) recommend you contact Stu!!
Cheers, Mark!!

Why is my salt chlorinator not working?
What do you mean my Cell is worn?
Unfortunately contrary to what your pool builder probably told you, the salt cell is a wearing component. It will last between 3-5 years depending on the style, if it has been sized correctly and more importantly water balance.
This is what happens to the electrodes over time… the bottom plate is a non active plate & you can see how the edges should look.

Hope you are well in these difficult & unnerving times.

With Stage 4 restrictions now in place the Swimming Pool And Spa Association of Victoria (SPASA Vic) after consulting the Victorian Government has advised that ONLY emergency work can be undertaken. If we are found doing unauthorised work we will (rightly) face hefty fines.
In light of this we will need to suspend non essential, regular Pool & Spa servicing BUT if you do have a major failure, leaks or questions please do contact me as we can assess the urgency & best course of action.

Please encourage everyone to do the right thing so we can get through this safely and sooner.
