Guest guest Posted August 26, 2008 Report Share Posted August 26, 2008 Mark, Do you have the company name or a link to the website of the system you have in your pool?

It takes Sodium Chloride (salt) and busts it apart into Sodium and Chloride (chlorine). It enters the pool, does its thing and then turns back into Sodium chloride. The process is repeated over and over. I have heard (not confirmed) that these systems are "illegal" in California. Personally, we went with a chlorine free system in our pool that uses Copper ion generator and UV purified oxygen to "kill" the bad guys in the pool. It is truely the only way to be "chlorine free". Outside of that, the recommendation is to take a shower immediately afterwards and adding epsom salts also helps. MK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 26, 2008 Report Share Posted August 26, 2008 For us in our pool, yes less chlorine, but we do not overcholorinate like most community pools do.
