Water Lily - Box of 6
Enquire
Placed in the basket skimmer, Water Lily® absorbs and retains all oily substances brought through by the circulating water. With time, Water Lily® turns colour according to the type of pollution it absorbs; suntan lotions, pollens, air pollution.
Water Lily® is made of a microfiber material specially treated to retain fat molecules present on the surface of the water. The fibers have both lipophilic and hydrophobic properties.
The former is a substance which attracts and retains oily substances, and the latter is a substance which repels water.
Thanks to these characteristics, Water Lily® absorbs the oily substances from swimmers’ suntan lotions and atmospheric pollution while remaining afloat as it is not able to absorb water. In other words, Water Lily® is an “intelligent” absorber.
Each type of pollution causes Water Lily® to turn colour differently.
It turns brown to black from air pollution and ivory to beige from pollen and vegetation.
It may not become too discoloured when absorbing suntan lotions and creams as neither product has a colour to begin with. This doesn’t mean your Water Lily® is not working or that you shouldn’t change it as suggested.
