Is an auto-dosing unit better than manual dosing?

Yes! An auto-dosing unit continuously monitors the pH and sanitiser levels of the pool and micro doses when needed, maintaining the set parameters of the pool and ensuring constant sanitisation while using less water treatment chemicals.

Manual dosing and testing relies on human judgement. The test results are not as accurate and the user may only test the pool 3 times per week compared to continuous monitoring with auto-dosing systems. This mean that the pool could have no sanitiser level at all for long periods of time allowing germs and bacteria to grow. Manual dosing also creates peaks and lows in levels when an amount is added by hand, spiking then dropping until the next manual dose spike.
