CCEI Celebrates Big Anniversary in Atlantic City

<h4 style="text-align:justify;">We are very proud to announce that Arthur, the head of our US branch, has been named to Pool Pro magazine's 30 Under 40 list! Check out the article now:</h4>In late 2020, Arthur Schutzberg was living in a small apartment in Brooklyn, New York, facing the prospect of another pandemic lockdown through the cold winter. Feeling hopeless and uncertain, he headed west to Los Angeles.“Here, I knew that I would at least have the sun and the warmth of the beach to save me from the wreckage of 2020,” he says. “What I didn’t realize was the warm embrace of the pool industry was right behind.”Schutzberg soon connected with family members from CCEI, a pool part manufacturing company based in France. Clara Baret and Pierre-Yves Flattot had been part of CCEI’s recent expansion into North America, including a Los Angeles-area location that opened in 2017. They approached Schutzberg to join the team and lead their U.S. sales efforts.&nbsp;<img class="image_resized" style="aspect-ratio:576/576;width:39.4%;" src="https://smiling-melody-2b3f378555.media.strapiapp.com/PP_23_6_Web_30_U40_Arthur_Schutzberg_1_a27c02ab08.png" alt="PP23-6-Web-30U40Arthur-Schutzberg_1.png" srcset="https://smiling-melody-2b3f378555.media.strapiapp.com/thumbnail_PP_23_6_Web_30_U40_Arthur_Schutzberg_1_a27c02ab08.png 156w,https://smiling-melody-2b3f378555.media.strapiapp.com/small_PP_23_6_Web_30_U40_Arthur_Schutzberg_1_a27c02ab08.png 500w," sizes="100vw" width="576" height="576">In his role at CCEI, Schutzberg thrives on the diversity and complexity of the pool industry. He collaborates with various stakeholders, from builders and service companies to distributors and local communities. He believes the pool industry is the “intersection of innovation.”“It is one of the rare industries that brings the art of design, the alchemy of construction, the chemistry of water, electricity, plumbing, automation, shapeshifting and cutting-edge technology all into one vessel and backyard,” he explains.Schutzberg wants to foster equitable opportunities within the pool industry. He champions initiatives like Every Child a Swimmer and advocates for giving back to underprivileged communities through accessible swimming facilities. He also hopes to be part of prioritizing eco-friendly and sustainable practices in the industry.“I would like to continue to advocate for fresh, young perspectives — those second- and third-generation members of this community who will be taking the mantle of their family’s business and bringing it to its next chapter,” he says. “We are the battery that will continue to move this industry.” &nbsp;<a class="button -sm -accent text-white" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://poolpromag.com/30-under-40-arthur-schutzberg/">Read the article on Pool Pro Mag</a>

Phileo VP, it's green!

Winter is almost here, and it's time to think about winterizing your pool! To avoid unpleasant surprises, here's some advice!<h2>Winterize your pool properly</h2>Winter is almost here, and it's time to think about winterizing your pool! To avoid unpleasant surprises when you put your pool back into service next summer, here are a few tips and steps to follow when winterizing your pool. &nbsp;Winterizing your pool will depend on the region in which you live, so it may be advisable to carry out a full winterization or a semi-winterization.<h4>Full (passive) or half (active) winterization?</h4>If you live in the central or northern regions of France, we advise you to winterize your pool completely.Total winterization involves completely shutting down the filtration pump and water treatments. This annual maintenance operation will preserve your pool and its equipment. If you're considering total winterizing, you'll need to lower the water level slightly, cover your pool with a winterizing tarpaulin and switch off the filtration system. The pool is then completely shut down for the entire winter season.For regions in the South of France, we recommend semi-wintering. Keep your pool filtered at a reduced rate. Simply slow down the filtration, and clean your pool when it's ready for the next summer season.<figure class="image image_resized" style="width:50%;"><img src="https://smiling-melody-2b3f378555.media.strapiapp.com/sonde_PH_et_ORP_967f435be8.png" alt="sonde-PH-et-ORP.png" srcset="https://smiling-melody-2b3f378555.media.strapiapp.com/thumbnail_sonde_PH_et_ORP_967f435be8.png 138w, https://smiling-melody-2b3f378555.media.strapiapp.com/small_sonde_PH_et_ORP_967f435be8.png 443w" sizes="100vw" width="443"></figure><h4>Automation solutions: intelligent electrical panels</h4>To make things easier for you, even in winter, CCEI offers you the Meteor panel with its pro frost protection mode! Supplied with a temperature sensor, the Meteor panel adapts filtration according to the temperature of the pond water, to prevent freezing in the pipes!

Winterizing your pool is easy.

Do you know what that means? That it's almost time to get your pool up and running again! &nbsp;If you've been a good student and followed our November tips for winterizing your pool correctly, then you shouldn't have any nasty surprises!Restarting your pool after wintering is an important step in ensuring a pleasant summer and a good swimming season. First and foremost, you can only start restarting your pool once the water temperature has reached 12°C, otherwise you'll have to wait a little longer! But be careful not to wait too long: don't let your pool get above 15°C before restarting, or you'll soon be spending a lot of money on chemicals.<h2 style="text-align:justify;">8 steps to take before restarting your pool</h2><h5>First step: remove your equipment</h5>First of all, you need to put all your equipment back in its place: remove the winter cover and all the items that were placed in the water during the winter, such as winter floats, gizmos or plugs. You'll also need to re-install all the equipment you stored for the winter: skimmers, outlet nozzles, cleaned filters.<h5 style="text-align:justify;">Step 2: clean your pool</h5>Despite the liner, which will have prevented a certain amount of debris from scattering into your pond, you'll still find a few leaves or insects on the surface of the water. Use a landing net to do a first, basic clean-up.<h5 style="text-align:justify;">Step 3: take care of the technical room</h5><ul><li>After an active winter</li></ul>If you've opted for active winterizing, restarting your pool is quick and easy: all you have to do now is readjust the filtration time. You can also opt for a temperature-controlled panel like the tild VP, for automated filtration all year round!<figure class="image image_resized" style="width:40.43%;"><img src="https://smiling-melody-2b3f378555.media.strapiapp.com/Design_sans_titre_eeddfb53c9.png" alt="Design sans titre.png" srcset="https://smiling-melody-2b3f378555.media.strapiapp.com/thumbnail_Design_sans_titre_eeddfb53c9.png 156w, https://smiling-melody-2b3f378555.media.strapiapp.com/small_Design_sans_titre_eeddfb53c9.png 500w, https://smiling-melody-2b3f378555.media.strapiapp.com/medium_Design_sans_titre_eeddfb53c9.png 750w, https://smiling-melody-2b3f378555.media.strapiapp.com/large_Design_sans_titre_eeddfb53c9.png 1000w" sizes="100vw" width="1000"></figure><ul><li>After passive wintering</li></ul>If you've opted for passive winterization, getting your pool up and running again is a longer and more complicated process. First of all, you'll need to refurbish the pump and filters. Then open all the valves and take care of the pump's electronic control unit, i.e. switch it on and program a new filtration time.Also check that the filter pressure gauge is balanced. If it is, all's well! Otherwise, if the pressure is too low, the pump may be seized up (loosen it with a screwdriver), or clogged (clean it).On the other hand, if the pressure is too high, it's possible that not all the valves are open (check them), or that the filter hasn't been cleaned properly.<h5>Step 4: Thoroughly clean your pond</h5>Once these first steps have been completed, it's time to give your pond a thorough cleaning. Your robot vacuum cleaner will clean the bottom and sides of your pond.<h5 style="text-align:justify;">Step 5: Adjust the water level</h5>When you winterized your pool, you probably lowered the water level by at least 10cm below the outlet nozzles to prevent the pipes from freezing. Now it's time to readjust the water line by filling the pool to skimmer level.<h5>Step 6: Analyze and treat water if necessary</h5>Once you've cleaned your pool, you can move on to water analysis: you can check the pH level, the stabilizer level for a chlorine pool, the TAC (alkalinity) and the TH (hydrotimetric titre). It's advisable to make adjustments if the results are not good.To simplify your life, we recommend installing our Ofix VP connected analyzer, which analyzes your water's essential elements (pH, RedOx and water temperature) in real time, to guarantee total peace of mind. You can also opt to install Daisy VP automatic dosing pumps, which automatically regulate water pH and/or chlorine (if 2 Daisy VPs are installed).<h5 style="text-align:justify;">Step seven: Shock treatment</h5>If you haven't done so before wintering, we recommend that you shock-treat your pool with chlorine or bromine, depending on your pool's usual treatment.If your pool is treated by salt electrolysis, certain devices such as the Zelia ZLT or Limpido offer you the option of setting up a SHOCK program with boosted chlorine production for 24 hours.<h5 style="text-align:justify;">Step eight: let the filtration system run</h5>Your pool's return to service is almost complete! All that remains is to let the filtration system run continuously for 24 to 48 hours to purify the pool water.

It's time to get your pool up and ready!
