23 · OAKVILLE BEAVER Friday, April 17, 2009 HOME AND GARDEN Total Tech Pools Where green pools are a good thing Total Tech Pools is changing the perception of the word Green when talking about Swimming Pools. Until recently a green pool was synonymous with an algae infestation. Pool owners would awake in a cold sweat with the thought of the hard work and expensive chemicals needed to rid their pool of this persistent and unpleasant beast. Now, when discussing a green pool it is likely that we are referring to the Environmentally Friendly and Energy Efficient Products available to today's pool owner. Like many industries, the pool industry is doing its part to lessen the impact on the environment. Total Tech Pools has been leading the way in the Greater Toronto Area through the implementation of a "Green Program". With Ultra Efficient Pumps utilizing Magnetic Drive Motors (used in Hybrid Cars), Low Emission Heaters ,Water Saving Filters and EcoFriendly Sanitizing Systems we can make a difference. Many of our chemicals are also Eco-Friendly and the harsher ones are used sparingly and with diligence. The environmental benefits are great but as an added benefit many of our customers have noticed substantial savings to their pocket book. When we can lower the impact on the environment, while at the same time saving customers hard earned dollars... everyone wins. In addition to providing green products to our customers we are doing our part to be more environmentally responsible by reducing our corporate footprint on the community. We are trying to reduce our waste through recycling, improving our routing to reduce gas usage and using less energy to run our facilities. Total Tech Pools invites you to join us in our showroom at 1380 Speers Road to see, touch and learn about the new Green advances in Pool Equipment. We are also proudly holding our annual sale event weekend with famous BBQ on April 25th and 26th where the lowest prices of the year are only part of the fun.
