Proper water treatment and routine maintenance are therefore important, particularly for bubble tubes used regularly in schools, sensory rooms, clinics and other shared environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBCB Plus is based on the proven \u003cstrong\u003eBronopol\u003c\/strong\u003e compound.
