VivoAquatics Updates

The COVID-19 pandemic revealed to the world the fragility of the global supply chain. Prior to 2020, logistics was rife with veiled pre-existing issues that quickly came to light during the tumultuous time. Equipment and much-needed aquatic supplies became difficult to obtain virtually overnight.

We are thrilled to announce the launch of VivoAdvantage, the first national commercial pool and spa compliance and training platform.  VivoAdvantage will provide hotels, multifamily apartments, fitness clubs, municipalities and others a comprehensive solution for facility managers to ensure they meet all necessary regulatory requirements and industry best practices while also keeping their pool staff certified.

Government agencies can only take so many steps to ensure the safety of commercial swimming pools and spas. They have developed regulations and codes to help sustain a safe, healthy, and clean pool for the public, but pool facilities must take things a step further to maintain the satisfaction and health of their patrons. Facility management software gives you the edge you need to take your swimming pool facility to the next level.

With a pool/spa facility, you need to stay one step ahead of potential problems to ensure the safety and satisfaction of your patrons. If you are even the least bit lax about preventative maintenance, you could be putting swimmers at risk of contracting recreational water illnesses (RWIs), injuries, skin or respiratory problems, and potential death.

The hospitality industry is highly competitive. To have the edge needed to become a leader, hotels have turned to automation for their pools and spas to ensure safety, compliance, and accuracy. Automation by VivoAquatics provides hoteliers with full control over aquatic management of their facility. They can effortlessly monitor the pool’s chemical levels via a cloud-based platform coupled with regulation controllers.

An aquatic facility has the potential to expand any bottom line as long as it is treated like any other business. Whether your commercial pool is located at a fitness center, resort, municipality, hotel, or condo/apartment complex, you want to ensure it isn’t a money user but a revenue maker. Many factors can tip the balance one way or another.

Running an aquatic facility isn t without challenges. Any misstep results in violations, puts your swimmers at risk, and might harm your reputation which will impact profitability.

The chlorine smell can be really annoying and cause problems at your commercial pool or spa. Built up chloramines can be detrimental to both your commercial pool, as well as the satisfaction of your swimming pool patrons. Not only can high chloramine levels cause swimmers to experience skin and eye irritation, but the potent smell of chlorine can also be a turnoff.

In the United States, public funding from municipalities typically pays for the construction of most public swimming pools. A community pool is usually a standard six lane and measures about 22.9-meters (25 yards).

As freezing temperatures approach, it's time to start winterizing your commercial pool. Don't be overwhelmed, because a successful pool closing paves the way for a successful pool opening next year!
