A chlorine generator, also known as a salt generator, is an addition to a pool pump and filter system that converts salt to chlorine. It is another method of adding chlorine to a swimming pool. You will still need a filter, like sand, to filter dirt and debris from the swimming pool.
You don't have to change anything The only thing you have to do is make up your mind about the saltwater chlorinator you intend to use, fit it along the pipe according to instructions or better still get an expert to do it and then add salt to the water. the filtration equipment need not be changed.
I want to change my existing sand pool filter into a salt filter system, Is it possible? can I don this easily or have to change out the whole pump? By the way, i have a hayward system and my pool is 18x16 inground. thanks
No. A sand filter will always be a sand filter. Salt will always be salt. A filter can never be turned into salt {;-).
I am assuming that you want to install a salt chlorinator system and you want to know if it is compatible with a sand filter. The answer is yes. However, a salt chlorinator will cost you more in the long run than continuing to buy plain old chlorine.
Need to rephrase question.
Add water and stirr: salt is soluble, sand not. Filter the solution. On the filter re- main sand, in the solution salt. After repetitive evaporations you can obtain salt as crystals.
Salt is soluble in water, sand is not soluble; filter the solution.
1. Put the mixture in water and stir. 2. Salt is water soluble, sand not. 3. Filter the suspension: sand remain on the filter and the salt in solution.
Put the mixture in water and stir. After the dissolution of salt filter the solution; sand remain on the filter, salt pass in the solution.
Salt is soluble in water; after filtration sand remain on the filter.
1. Put this mixture in water and stir. 2. Filter the suspension on paper filter or other type of filter. 3. The sand remain on the filter and the salt in the filtrate.
Add water and warm to dissolve the salt. Filter the whole solution to leave the sand. Rinse the sand and filter again. Evaporate the water off the salt solution.
As salt is soluble in water, mixing salt and sand in water would result in solid sand, and salt water. When poured through a coffee filter, the sand would remain in the filter, while the salt water would flow through. After letting the water evaporate, salt would remain. You will be left with the two separated solids.
Water and a filter would work. Pour the salt/sand into water and the salt will dissolve. Pour the mixture into a filter and the sand will be trapped in the filter. Evaporate the water and the salt will remain.
no the salt will disolve....
Fist filter off or sink off the sand from water with dissolved salt. Then evaporate the water (by boiling off) from the solution, leavinfg the dry solid salt crystals.
