Chlorine Generators can be purchased from any major pool supply company. You can also obtain these online at pool supply stores.
Halogen Pool Supplies & Equipment sells pool chlorine generators in the Chicago area.
You can find chlorine in household bleach, swimming pool supplies, and in some cleaning products. Chlorine can also be sourced from commercial suppliers in the form of chlorine gas or liquid chlorine.
You cannot "contaminate" a chlorine pool or spa with salt or vice versa. Chlorine starts as salt. Chlorine generators use salt to make chlorine. Therefore your "salt" spa is already a chlorine spa, you are just not putting chlorine tablets in it. It is a very common misconception that a salt system is some how different than a chlorine system. There are no "salt generators" and the salt does nothing other than allow a "chlorine generator" to produce chlorine. We get this question almost every day and it's generally because customers are "sold" not "told" about the product they purchased. If you were expecting anything other than purchasing a device that makes chlorine from salt, you will be disappointed. Pool & Spa
The usual reason for salt in a pool is for chlorination. Epsom salt won't work with salt/chlorine generators. BUT, you can add epsom salt to your water.
You don't convert a chlorine pool to salt pool. Chlorine generators use salt to make chlorine in your pool. Therefore a salt water pool is a chlorine pool, you are just introducing the chlorine to the water a different way. The cost is based on the price of the chlorine generator you buy and the amount of salt required for the number of gallons in your pool. If you buy a system from the internet and install it yourself, a typical model for a 25,000 gallon pool is about $1,000. However, this generally means no warranty as the "proper installation" caveat may apply. Purchasing the same model from a local dealer, installed, should run in the neighborhood of $1,500. This will get you a professional job and a full warranty. POOL_N_SPA_WAREHOUSE
Intheswim is a store where someone can purchase a variety of products. Some of these products include; Automatic Pool Cleaners, Pool Pumps and filters, Pool Heaters, Salt Chlorine Generators, Filter Cartridges and Pool Parts,
Most chlorine generators require a salt content in the water of a pool 2500 to 6000 ppm
Bromine is a healthy alternative for those with allergic reactions to chlorine to clean your in-ground pool. Ozone generators with ultraviolent light is another healthy alternative to cleaning an in-ground pool.
It wouldn't make a great deal of difference aside from making the water feel better to swim in. Salt water pools also have chlorine generators that convert part of the salt in the water into chlorine.
I do not sell products, but you can find chlorine tablets at most pool supply stores or online retailers. Make sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions when using chlorine tablets in your pool to maintain proper water chemistry and safety.
Being in the pool service business, I have installed many chlorine generators in residential pools. I haven't come across a residential unit that will accomodate more than 40,000 gallons (and I don't necessarily trust the manufacturers' optimistic estimate). I've installed 40K gallon residential units for about $1,500, but it seems you will probably need a larger, commercial unit, which, I've been told, can run $4,000 to $7,000 dollars, but do your homework: you may find an online deal.
Salt chlorine generators use about 500kw. Tablet in-line feeders use none. They're just plumbed so the water passes through them during normal circulation.
