Indoor water park Waterworld reveals what its doing to avoid coronavirus

A popular water park in Staffordshire has revealed the measures it has put in place to ensure it remains free of coronavirus.

Waterworld, in Stoke-on-Trent, is using 'a cocktail of anti-bacterial chemicals' as part of the daily cleaning routine for its pool plant system.

The leisure facility has been using Ozone gas which experts say is one of the most powerful weapons in the fight against COVID-19.

It has also invested in a virucidal and antibacterial disinfectant called Ultra AX, which has just been released to combat coronavirus.

While 20 hand sanitation points - which all boast Dettol antibacterial surface cleanser spray - have been installed around the facility.

Waterworld owner Mo Chaudry said: "Anti-bacterial cleanliness is always a top priority for a leisure facility such as ours.

"But in the current climate, we wanted to provide extra reassurance to our guests, by spelling out the lengths we are going to keep our resort

bacteria-free.

"A full deep clean of the whole facility is carried out every night using antibacterial and virucidal chemicals."

Mo added: "Our message is: Not only is Waterworld very much still open for business – but it is one of the least friendly environments you can find

for the spread of coronavirus.

"Respiratory viruses are more powerful in cool, dry air - and Waterworld is a warm and humid environment."
