There's a reason why over 90% of new pools in Florida are saltwater pools - and if you don't already have one, we can convert your chlorine swimming pool. Here are a few facts:
- Natural sanitation: Salt water pools use a salt chlorine generator that converts salt into chlorine, providing a more natural and consistent sanitation process compared to adding chlorine manually to a traditional chlorine pool.
- Reduced chemical odor: Salt water pools have lower chlorine levels compared to traditional chlorine pools, resulting in reduced chemical odors and less irritation to the eyes and skin.
- Gentler on skin and hair: The lower chlorine levels in salt water pools make them gentler on the skin and hair, reducing the risk of dryness, itching, and discoloration that can occur with traditional chlorine pools.
- Less maintenance: Salt water pools generally require less frequent monitoring and maintenance compared to traditional chlorine pools. Once the salt chlorine generator is properly adjusted, it continuously produces the necessary chlorine, eliminating the need for regular addition of chemicals.
- Cost-effective: Although the initial installation of a salt chlorine generator may be more expensive, in the long run, salt water pools can be more cost-effective. The reduced need for chlorine chemicals and simplified maintenance can lead to lower overall operating costs.
- Extended chlorine lifespan: The salt chlorine generator in a salt water pool helps extend the lifespan of chlorine molecules, making them more efficient and longer-lasting compared to traditional chlorine pools.
- Softer water feel: Salt water pools often provide a softer and silkier water feel, creating a more pleasant swimming experience.
- Environmental benefits: Salt water pools are considered more environmentally friendly as they reduce the need for chemical storage and transport, minimize chlorine byproduct waste, and use fewer harsh chemicals that can potentially harm the environment.
- Algae prevention: Salt water pools have a more stable and consistent chlorine level, which helps inhibit algae growth and reduce the chances of algae blooms, resulting in clearer and cleaner water.
- Improved longevity of pool equipment: The lower chlorine levels in salt water pools help reduce corrosion and extend the lifespan of pool equipment, such as pumps, filters, and heaters.
