If you are fortunate enough to have a swimming pool in your house, you will know that it involves tending to and cleaning. While filtration is usually taken care of and the water is kept relatively clean with the addition of chorine, you must be aware that chlorine is a chemical. It can dry the skin and even change the color of your hair (if it has been recently colored).

The Solar Powered Pool Purifier is easy to use as you just put it in the pool. Because it uses solar power, it starts working immediately the sun comes out. It works by releasing mineral ions into the water which make it safe and this way the use of chlorine is reduced by 80 per cent as are its harmful side effects.

The Steamboy Floor Mop is an eco-friendly mop which leaves floors and surfaces very clean. A vacuum cleaner is mostly used for ‘dry’ cleaning, particularly of carpeted floors and upholstery, but when you have tiled, marbled, granite or hardwood floors, or even floors covered with linoleum you need wet cleaning to be done.

While you can always take a wet mop and mop the floor with chemical cleaners, this is not good for the environment. You may have to bend or squat down (though you can get long-handled mops) if you need to remove encrusted substances from the floor, using manual mops. The kitchen and dining areas always have a tendency to get dirty and mucky with food and drink falling down and this is an easy option to clean the floors.
