Pillar 2: Non-living Organics | Orenda's Four Pillars

00:00 - Intro

01:54 - Chlorine's responsibilities

02:48 - More of an oxidant demand than a sanitizer demand

03:02 -  Three categories of oxidants: metals, nitrogen compounds, and non-living organics

03:19 -  What does oxidation mean?

05:11 - Nitrogen compounds: ammonia and urea, and combined chlorine

07:54 -The bulk of chlorine's responsibilities (over 90%) are non-living organics

10:23 - Secondary oxidizer systems (ozone, AOP, and hyper-dissolved oxygen)

11:21 - Our not-so-shameless plug: enzymes are used to supplement chlorine against non-living organics

13:49 - Enzymes are not required, but beneficial, especially with larger bather loads

14:26 - Wildfire smoke/ash puts organics, nitrogen and phosphates in your pool. That's a serious chlorine demand.

16:48 - Thank you for listening!
