Salt Chlorinators benefits

HOW DO SALT CHLORINATORS WORK?

 

Salt chlorinators have added a new dimension to the concept of pool water treatment, as they increase the quality of the water, do not need chemical products and make maintenance work easier.

 

 

The salt chlorination process:

 

1. Approximately 4 grams of table salt is added for every litre of water (nine times less than the amount of salt in seawater and very similar in proportion to a teardrop).

 

2. Once dissolved, an electric current is passed through the water via an electrode and the salt turns into chlorine. Therefore, there is now enough disinfectant in the water to destroy any micro-organisms that may be floating in it.

 

3. When the chlorine has performed its function as a disinfecting agent, it turns back into salt. This means the concentration of salt remains constant and only occasional top-ups will be necessary to make up for the loss of salt in filter backwashing.


WHAT ARE SALT CHLORINATORS BENEFITS?


HEALTH
 

Increased body relaxation through cleaner water and a cleaner environment, with your pool being automatically disinfected. You will no longer suffer from sore eyes, irritated mucous membranes, dry skin or dry hair. The smell and taste of chlorine will completely disappear from your pool. In addition, corrosive and unhealthy environments are eradicated. Electrolysis prevents bacterial growth.

 

SAVINGS
 

Spending on chemical products reduced by 90%, only a stabiliser (the first time) and a Ph reducer are required. The only product added is salt. Maintenance costs are minimal and electrical consumption very reduced.

 

SUSTAINABILITY
 

No handling of corrosive chemical products. Electricity consumption is similar to that of a light bulb. The storage of inflammable products is not required. The water is clean, healthy and crystal clear.
