8 Multi-award winning and Internationally certified Swimming Pool and Spa Association (SPASA) most innovative product award 2008 Waterco s MultiCyclone centrifugal pre-filter has been awarded SPASA NSW, SPASA SA & SPASA QLD most innovative product award. The Swimming Pool & Spa Association (SPASA) is a non-profit organisation dedicated to maintaining and improving standards within the industry for the betterment of consumers, pool builders and suppliers. SPASA s panel of independent judges awarded Waterco s MultiCyclone centrifugal filter for its water saving features and its innovative method of filtering sediment without any filter media or moving parts. Smart Approved WaterMark MultiCyclone has been awarded the Smart Approved WaterMark. The Smart Approved WaterMark is Australia s water saving labelling program for products and services which are helping to reduce outdoor water use. Smart Approved WaterMark scheme has been developed to address outdoor water conservation. It is a voluntary and not-for-profit program that allows consumers to make an informed choice towards saving water. NSF certification The MultiCyclone has been certified by NSF international; NSF tested the MultiCyclone for its structural integrity, head loss, turbidity removal, and clean ability. Its turbidity tests proved that the MultiCyclone was capable of filtering down to 30 microns. NSF International is a not-for-profit the world leader in standards development, product certification, education, and risk-management for public health and safety. The NSF Mark is recognized for its value in international trade around the world and is respected by regulatory agencies at the local, state, and federal levels Piscina Barcelona Sustainability Award The Multi Cyclone was awarded the 2007 Piscina Barcelona Sustainability Award at the prestigious International Swimming Pool Exhibition, Piscina BCN.
