Can you switch from chlorine to a saltwater system just by installing a chlorine generator and adding salt?

Yes, you can switch from chlorine to a saltwater system by installing a chlorine generator, also known as a saltwater chlorinator, and adding salt to your pool.

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.


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.
