Active pipe cleaning: the AcquaVapore innovation

Cleaning a whirlpool: hygiene comes first

Every whirlpool has an internal system of pipes that needs to be cleaned regularly. After use, bacteria and germs settle in these pipes, which until now could only be removed with a foam cleaner. This process could take up to an hour before most of the dirt had come loose. If cleaning is neglected over a longer period, the dirt spreads, the pipes become blocked and it can start to smell.

Thanks to active pipe cleaning from AcquaVapore, this problem is now nipped in the bud. With a simple setting on the whirlpool's mixer tap, hot water is pumped through the pipes. The process takes a few minutes, needs no cleaning agent and can be run after every bath. With frequent use, the time-consuming and expensive cleaning with a disinfectant previously had to be carried out every 2 to 3 weeks. With the new system, it is only necessary every few months.

Simpler, healthier and more environmentally friendly

Active pipe cleaning is so quick because the dirt cannot spread through the system in the first place. Hygiene problems can no longer occur, as the bacteria are flushed away before they can settle in the pipes. Slip into your whirlpool with peace of mind: it is completely clean.

As a disinfectant now only needs to be used rarely, the new method is much more environmentally friendly. The cleaning takes place purely through the pressure of pure, hot water, which as a side effect also reduces the cost of cleaning agents. Simply press the button on the mixer tap and the process runs by itself.

AcquaVapore: developed in Germany

Not many whirlpools currently have an active system like this. Like all our products, it was developed with German expertise in the AcquaVapore planning office. For our latest generation of whirlpools, active pipe cleaning can now be ordered as an option.
