How Does Retrofitting the EasyStar Counter Current System Work? 

Even if your pool is already built, you don't have to miss out on the benefits of a counter current system. The EasyStar is easily attached to the pool edge, requiring only a few drill holes for installation. The cable is laid to the control unit, which a qualified electrician installs in the utility room in a few simple steps.

 

Installation Options: 

• On the trim at the pool’s edge
• Under the trim at the pool’s edge
• On a nearby wooden deck

You have the freedom to choose how your EasyStar Counter Current System should be installed, and we can take care of the rest. Since every pool is different, the manufacture BINDER can create custom mounting brackets for each unit, allowing you to install the EasyStar unit optimally in your pool.

Technical Product Information

Performance: 

EasyStar is available in six different performance levels. The smallest unit generates a volume flow of 160 cubic metres per hour – the next largest model circulates 215 cubic metres of water per hour and is therefore ideal for average trained swimmers. The top model has a flow rate of 550 cubic metres per hour. This means that competitive swimmers can also train very well. For the especially ambitious professional athletes out there, we also offer a swimming machine with a performance of 600 m3 per hour.


EasyStar is not only available in different performance classes, but also in different colours (grey and white). These colours harmonise best with the most popular pool liners.

Operation: 

The EasyStar system is extremely quiet and requires very little maintenance, as the turbine drive’s friction bearings are lubricated by the water. It can be conveniently operated with the remote control or via the BINDER24 app. Since EasyStar is weatherproof, the system does not need to be removed in winter when used outside. An Automatic Slatted Pool Cover or Swimming Pool Safety Cover will ensure that the water temperature remains constant and no dirt gets into the pool when it is not in use. EasyStar’s mounting bracket does not disturb the operation of existing pool covers. They can still be opened and closed without any issues.

Installation: 

EasyStar was developed to ensure quick and easy installation. In contrast to new pool constructions, no extensive earthworks are necessary. The retrofit system can therefore be installed within a very short time.

Take a test swim against the counterflow system. You have to experience EasyStar’s unique natural flow for yourself. 1st Direct Pools can organise a no obligation test swim at the manufactures premises in Hamelin. Contact us today to book. 

 

EasyStar Offers the Perfect Solution for Every Traning Level: 

The HydroStar and EasyStar deliver broad and even surface current and undercurrent thanks to BINDER's patented turbine technology. The swimmers legs are pushed upwards to create a comfortable and effective position for swimming against the current for both gentle and intensive training.
