NO, otherwise you shouldn't be getting it on your skin. It can be corrosive but definitely not considered Hazmat and in need of specialized disposal.

Is saltwater or chlorine better?

Saltwater pool versus chlorine poolMy family is in the process of having an inground pool installed. As a matter of fact it was finally filled with water today. I will try and answer your question to the best of my ability. We went with a salt water pool because it is more stable than chlorine. It won't burn you eyes, turn your hair green, etc. You also do not have to add as many chemicals. A bottle of muriatic acid weekly and a 40 pound bag of pool salt every 3 or 4 months. We had an above ground pool before and we had nothing but trouble trying to keep it clean and we spent a bundle on chlorine and all kinds of chemicals to keep the water clear. Anyway 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.

Salt water pool systems vs chlorine which is better?

A salt water pool is a chlorine pool. The difference is that in a normal fresh water pool you have to add the chlorine as it is required. In the case of the salt water pool salt is added to the pool which is int urn run through a chlorine generator that is installed on the pipe leading from the filter to the pool. The chlorine generator electronically separates chlorine gas out of the salt water which then dissolves into the water automatically maintaining chlorine levels. The adidion of salt to the water makes it more pleasant to swim in and you are spared having to handle and store chlorine at home. but the problem is you are still swimming in Chlorine and now you are also swimming in sodium.

Why is your pool green when the chlorine level is right?

Chlorine is not particularly good at getting rid of algae once it gets established in the water so just having the chlorine levels right wont fix it. As a matter of fact the algae will reduce the effectiveness of the pools chlorine and make the water more hazardous to swim in. The best thing to do is to get some algaecide from your pool shop and while you are at it take along a sample of your pool water as you may need to make some other changes in your water balance to prevent the problem from reoccurring pool shops do these tests free of charge and its a lot easier then doing it all yourself.
