Water quality
The bacteriological quality of Espadon’s water is one of the best in Brussels.
In fact, the Etterbeek swimming pool uses an alternative treatment (in addition to activated carbon sand filters) based on ultraviolet rays to reduce the amount of chlorine in the water. In its latest annual water quality rankings, Brulabo, the intercommunal laboratory responsible for examining the water quality of swimming pools in Brussels, placed L’Espadon in the top 3 of the cleanest pools in Brussels.
