Swimming Pool Salt
Swimming pool salt is a high-purity grade of sodium chloride, commonly used for saltwater pool systems. It is typically free from additives and anti-caking agents found in table salt to prevent any potential issues in pool water chemistry.
APPLICATION & USAGE
- Saltwater Pool Systems: Swimming pool salt is used in saltwater pool systems to generate chlorine through the process of electrolysis. This eliminates the need for traditional chlorination methods with chlorine tablets or liquid chlorine.
- Chlorine Production: When dissolved in water, the saltwater pool system's chlorine generator produces chlorine gas, which acts as a sanitizer to keep the pool water clean and free from bacteria and algae.
- Water Balance: Pool salt also plays a role in maintaining proper water balance, including pH levels and total alkalinity, to ensure optimal swimming conditions and prevent corrosion or scaling.
- Environmentally Friendly: The use of saltwater pool systems is often considered more environmentally friendly than traditional chlorine-based systems, as it reduces the need for chemical storage and transportation.
- Reduced Maintenance: Saltwater pools can provide more stable and consistent chlorine levels, leading to reduced maintenance efforts compared to traditional chlorine pools.
