A salt system IS a chlorine system. Chlorine is still the sanitizer. The salt system is there so a chlorine generator can make the chlorine from the salt instead of you having to deal with it. There is no such thing as "best", only tradeoffs. A salt system is expensive even if you break it down per year (with initial and replacement costs). However much less maintenance. A salt system IS perfectly safe for a vinyl, or any type, pool.
I have found Proteam's System support product to be very effective against it. Hmmm, What are chlorine "loops"
Tap water contains chlorine to ensure no bacteria in the available drinking water source. Chlorine is also used in pools for the same reason. The disadvantage of having chlorine in our drinking water is that if we use it to water plants, it does about as much harm as good. The same rule applies to drinking that same water, as chlorine in the stomach causes acid reflux and erosive esophigitis as the chlorine becomes chlorine gas and is unhealthy. The best thing you can do is filter tap water by way of a charcoal filtering system.
no
Yes, e-clear on Oxygen is 100% chlorine free. It does not use any chlorine or salt or any other chlorides (such as Potassium chloride or magnesium chloride) to generate chlorine, but instead relies on an advanced oxidation process which is combined with copper ionization to sanitize the water.
To the best of my knowledge, no they can't. Your salt pool converts the salt into chlorine, and plankton cannot live in a chlorinated system.
Yes. Chlorine Water Is Harmful To The Human Eye ..Or Any Eye. That Is Why We Wear Goggles. If We Don't Wear Goggles And Go Under (Chlorine) Water , We Best Keep Our Eyes Shut So No Water Runs In Them.
Spring water is best, as tap water may have too much chlorine added to it at the reservoirs.
You will need to get equipment besides the salt to convert to a saltwater system. The way a salt water system works is that salt is added to the water in the pool then an electrode is fitted inline that works usually while the filter is opperating which converts the salt into chlorine which then disololves int the water. You would be best of checking with your poolshop to find out what would be the best choice.
Chlorine would be my best guess,
I assume by 'cleaning' you are referring to the sanitizing of the water and that you use 'liquid chlorine' at present. If this is so, a far better method of sanitizing the water, keeping algae away, etc is the Saline system. You never need to buy chlorine, of any kind, because the Saline System produces the same thing from a mild level of salt dissolved into the pool water - but the results are like chemical-free water. Contact me for details.
Another swimsuit for fitness swimmers who have to be in chlorinated pool water for long hours is a leg swimwear. Leg swimwear especially the ones that are fully cut, have squared-off legs with strips racing on the both the hips and fully lined are the most preferred ones and swimmers are very commonly seen sporting these types of leg swimwear. Leg swim wears are mostly 100% nylon tricot and are highly resistant to chlorine.
Not unless you are running the pump and filter. 1, 2 or 3 or even 4 hrs. are not enough to clear the water. Run the system 24/7 for best water quality. If you can read a quarter at the deepest end of the pool bottom then you have run the system long enough. You may also want to add liquid chlorine to sanitize the water. Unless the "shock" is actually chlorine.
