Prolonged immersion in hot water may induce hyperthermia. Hyperthermia occurs when the internal temperature
of the body reaches a level several degrees above the normal body temperature of 98.6°F (37°C). The symptoms
of hyperthermia include dizziness, fainting, drowsiness, lethargy, and an increase in the internal temperature of the
body. The effects of hyperthermia include:
•
Unawareness of impending danger;
•
Failure to perceive heat;
•
Failure to recognize the need to exit spa;
•
Physical inability to exit spa;
•
Fetal damage in pregnant women; and/or
•
Unconsciousness resulting in a danger of drowning.
It is important to note that certain materials used in and around swimming pools and spas may not be compatible
with chemicals commonly used to purify pool and spa water (e.g. acids, chlorine, salt, stabilizers, etc.).
As such, Zodiac Pool Systems, Inc. does not warrant or guarantee that the chlorinated water generated by the
Nature
Fusion will not damage or destroy certain types of plants, decking, coping and other materials in and
2
around your pool and/or spa. Before selecting materials to be used in and around your pool and/or spa, please
discuss all options with your contractor to assess the compatibility of such materials and chemicals.
Some helpful considerations may include:
•
Choosing plants that can withstand splash out of pool water containing chlorine and/or salt and other water
purifi cation chemicals.
•
All metal components used in and around a pool should be of a high grade, quality stainless steel.
•
Careful selection of masonry products. The porosity and hardness of natural stones varies greatly. Therefore we
recommend you consult with your builder or stone contractor on the best choice for stone materials around your
pool or spa.
•
Sealing all masonry products. Professionals in the stone industry specify that even natural stone, especially
when used outdoors, be sealed to prevent weathering, staining, and premature degradation. Consult with your
stone or deck contractor for the proper sealer for the masonry products you have selected to use around your
pool or spa.
•
For optimal results, sealers should be reapplied on a regular basis. Reapply the protective sealer on a schedule
per the manufacturer's instructions.
