Vacation After the Corona Shutdown

What You Should Consider

Legionella During Vacation After several months of worldwide hotels and other vacation accommodations being closed due to the Corona shutdown, these establishments are now gearing up for a fresh start. Families and couples are looking forward to their vacation and a carefree time.

There have always been issues with Legionella in vacation accommodations that are only used seasonally.
Legionella are rod-shaped bacteria that spread in water vapor, for example, during showers. Inhaling Legionella with the water vapor can cause them to settle in the lungs and lead to pneumonia.

In stagnant tap water, there is a constant multiplication of bacteria. A biofilm forms in which Legionella continuously multiply.
This biofilm is difficult to remove.
All vacation accommodations and hotels worldwide are affected!

Was the tap water tested for Legionella before opening? You don't know…

Getting a reliable answer to this is almost impossible.
In many countries, there is no mandatory reporting or testing for Legionella in tap water.

Protect yourself with the purchase of a shower sterilization filter!
Buying a water sterilization filter is an investment in your own health and for a carefree, sustainable vacation, especially for families with small children, elderly travelers, or vacationers with weakened immune systems.

Especially in southern countries, there is often a risk of E. coli intestinal bacteria in tap water, which can cause stomach cramps and diarrhea. That's why it's recommended to use only bottled water for brushing teeth there.

With the Pall KleenpakTM water sterilization filter, you can shower without worries, use the water for brushing teeth, washing fruits and vegetables, preparing meals, or rinsing dishes.

The Pall KleenpakTM water sterilization filter can be used for up to 31 days, after which the filter can be disposed of in regular household waste. A special coupling is required for installation, which can be reused multiple times.

*Vacation accommodations include apartments, mountain cabins, bungalows, campgrounds, club resorts, holiday complexes, vacation rentals, hotels, mobile homes, pensions, cruise ships, motorhomes, and caravans.
