Salt Pool Chlorinators are a straightforward means to feature the needed chlorine automatically to your pool and they're put in inline after the plumbing for a filter system. Salt is needed to be added to your pool in proper concentrations, ( between 2,500 to 4000 ppm) and it passes through your chlorinator cell making free chlorine, and at the identical time destroys the used chlorine. Below are a number of the pros and cons of owning this sort of system.
Pros are:
Salt Pool Chlorinators produce the chlorine needed to sanitize the pool. So you don't have to add any additional. The exceptions to this rule will be when you close up your pool at the end of the season.
The pool water typically feels softer at the touch. Many of our customers have told us this. Also it appears to not dry out the skin as badly as historically chlorinated pools. Another benefit of this type of system as it does not impact up your eyes as badly also
Pools maintained with Salt Pool Chlorinators many times require less water chemistry testing. The salt water naturally creates the sanitizing chlorine that keeps your water clean, however the rest of the water chemistry parameters should still be maintained. These types of systems permit extended periods of your time to cater for a vacations or business visits, as a result less intervals of maintenance required. The chlorine is automatically created.
Cons will be:
When it reaches time to shut your pool, you'll have to use regular chlorine. Salt Pool Chlorinators stop producing below certain temperatures. One would think that algae cannot grow at these temperatures, but you still need to feature some type of sanitizer before you button up you pool.
Generally the characteristics of salt-water pools exhibit higher pH levels than traditionally chlorinated ones. So you will have to add further muriatic acid to combat that.
One might continually think that having a salt-water pool is more economical. The only real cost reduction is the reduction of chlorine costs. What you will have is salt and muriatic acid costs. So from the cost perspective you are really dealing at only a break even point considering the actual cost and installation of the pool chlorinator.
Most times the sales trick is to mention that a salt-water pool is maintenance free, however is really is not. Debris always still needs to be cleaned, water chemistry checked and filters cleaned.
Weighing in all factors, I think the biggest or best purpose of a salt-water pool is a smaller intervals of maintenance. In the nutshell I think we all wish to pay the least amount of detail caring for our pool, and more time enjoying it.
