Defect in the chlorine dosing system – 15 injured in Phantasialand

A defect in the chlorine dosing system at a hotel swimming pool in Phantasialand in Brühl (North Rhine-Westphalia) left 15 people injured. According to the fire department, one moderately injured person and three slightly injured people were taken to hospital. The remaining victims were examined by an emergency doctor.

The defect caused too much chlorine to get into the bathing water. Several guests therefore complained about complaints, said a fire department spokesman. The rescue workers checked the dosing system and found a significantly increased chlorine content.

There was no information about the identity or age of the injured.
