That usually have a adjustment to turn them down, otherwise you will have to run it for less time. This can be done with a second timer. Be careful that the filter is always in operation when the chlorinater is in operation.

How do you keep chlorine in saltwater pool?

Once you have a chlorine reading, the use of Cyanuric Acid will help keep the chlorine from letting sunlight dissipate it. Keep in mind that many induced salywater pools manufacture chlorine from electroylsis of the salt water.


How can you make your pool saline and not chlorine?

To make your pool saline and not chlorine, you would install a saltwater chlorinator system. This system uses salt to produce chlorine through the process of electrolysis, eliminating the need to manually add chlorine to the pool. Saltwater pools are often preferred for their milder chlorine levels and potential cost savings in the long run.


How do you reduce free chlorine in a salt water pool?

Free chlorine is the sanitizing portion of chlorine. You may not want to reduce that. Are the levels excessive? There is a product which reduces or eliminates chlorine but beware. Not a good product if you use too much. What are your readings?


What is a chlorine generator?

Many people are choosing to remodel their swimming pool systems to add saltwater chlorination. With a saltwater pool system, a chlorine generator is added to the pool's filtration system. The water circulates through the chlorinator, where salt produces a chlorine gas that dissolves into the water. That chlorine in turn, breaks down and turns into salt, cycling the process all over again.


How many electrons are in the outermost energy level of a chlorine ion in table salt?

There are 8 electrons in the outermost energy level of a chlorine ion in table salt. Chlorine typically has 7 electrons in its outer shell, but when it becomes an ion in table salt, it gains an extra electron to achieve a full outer shell of 8 electrons.

Does salt water pool dry skin like chlorine pool?

Yes if you are using a chlorinator. salt is sodium chloride and the chlorinator converts it to sodium hypo-chloride which is chlorine.


What is better and anodizer or salt chlorinator in a pool?

not salt water, but its better for your health! Salt is not a pool cleaner, it is usually there to make chlorine via a "salt system"


What is a fresh water swimming pool?

A fresh water swimming pool is a swimming pool that does not use a saltwater chlorinator. A pool that used a salt water chlorinator has salt added to it to so that a salt water chlorinator can electronically convert part of the salt into chlorine. A fresh water pool has chlorine added to it directly either manually or Automatically.


Apart from Salt and a Pump what else do you need to run a salt pool?

You need a salt water chlorinator. A salt water chlorinator is an electronic devise that converts the salt in the water from the pool into chlorine gas that is then absorbed into the water.


Do you have to buy a salt chlorine generator to have a salt water pool?

Yes. The salt is run through a chlorinator that changes the salt to chlorine. It won't do it by itself so you have to buy the generator to do this.


How do you add more chlorine to automatic chlorinator?

If you have a salt water chlorinator and you are not getting enough chlorine have ther unit checked if it is ok it is either too small or you are not running it long enough however if you want you can add chlorine to bring it up to the required concentration.


How do you switch your pool from chlorine sanitation to salt?

You need a salt water chlorinator. This can be a add-on to your existing setup or a whole new combined unit. You then add salt to your pool (mine is 20,000 litres and takes 60kg of salt at start of season), and then the salt water chlorinator (which sits in-line with one of your water hoses) makes chlorine from the salt using a chemical/electrical reaction. Beats buying and adding chlorine by hand :-) Hope that helps.


Will switching from chlorine chemical system to a salt water system ruin pool?

No A salt water pool is in fact also chlorine pool, the difference being that with a salt water pool a salt water chlorinator converts the salt that is in the water into chlorine gas which is then dissolved into the water while the filter is running. the conversion wont have any adverse effects on the pool.


Can you use salt and chlorine in your pool?

Yes as a mater of fact that is what salt water pool normally is. With a salt water pool there is a electronic salt water chlorinator installed that uses the salt in the water to create chlorine. However if you don't have a salt water chlorinator and prefer the feeling of a salt water pool then there is no reason not to add salt to the pool as well as keeping up the chlorine yourself.


What do we use salt to?

Salt is put into swimming pools so that the water from the pool can be run through a salt water chlorinator which produces chlorine to disinfect the pools water.

Can I chlorinate the salt water in my pool after my chlorinator died?

Yes, you can dio without the chlorinator. You can leave it in place, without tables, or you can disconnect and remove it, whichever you prefer. The saline system will produce all of the sanitizer (chlorine) your pool requires (provided it is the correct size for your pool).
