Over the past several years, saltwater pools have become more and more popular. Salt Chlorine Generators convert the salt water in your pool into chlorine that can sanitize and kill bacteria. The salt level in the pool required by most generators is barely enough to taste. The water clarity is typically better in a saltwater pool. Since the salt chlorine generator is producing chlorine from the salt in the pool water, there is no need for a constant source of chlorine such as chlorine tablets. Shocking is required periodically, and you may need to add salt a few times throughout the summer. Having your pool properly grounded is important in any saltwater pool to prevent excessive corrosion.
Smartpool’s Chlorease unit has proven to be an easy unit to install and an economical unit for the above ground pool market. This unit simply mounts underneath the top ledge of the pool. Then plug it up and add salt.
Another unit made by Goldline is designed with more features than the Chlorease unit. It reverses polarity eliminating the need to clean the salt cell from buildup. It also is piped inline as opposed to over the wall.
