I love salt water pools however a salt water pool is still a chlorine pool that is why the salt is added to the water. The best known material for salt water pools Is sodium chloride, this is dissolved in the water and the water is then run through electronic element that separates chlorine out of the salt into the water. a less environmentally harmful system that uses Magnesium chloride and potassium chloride is now also becoming available.
