Why is swimming in chemicals such an excepted practice? Chlorine, Salt Generated Chlorine, Shock, Stabilizers, where does it stop? You add one chemical you need to add two more to balance the pool. Then jump on in! Technology has moved well beyond chemical addition! Look into UV systems...not Ozone generated by UV, strait UV technology will Kill algae, not just put it to sleep like chlorine does. UV also destroys more bacteria..which is why you use chemicals - than any other system including and especially salt systems. Read the World Health Organization - Healthy Pool Guidelines! Read what the Centers For Disease Control and the scientific community says about Swimming Pools and your health. Read about cryptosporidium in your pool and your kids! Read about THM's and HAA's! Read about reproductive and developmental problems associated with Chlorine Disinfection By Products (DBP's)! Then you will quit using shock, salt, stabilizers, acids,yellow treat, green treat, and use a light bulb instead! Technology is a beautiful thing!
AnswerThere are no advantages just disadvantages to chlorine it scars your arteries kills your hair , try reading Natural cures they don't want you to know about.I agree completely. Chlorine makes the pool "pretty" by killing every living thing in it. How can that be good for the human body? Not only does it scar your arteries and kill your hair, it dries out your skin and causes itching.
Chlorine may have its disadvantages however it is still accepted as the most popular and available sanitizer. Using a chlorine generator that works with Magnesium and potassium chloride will actually be good for you and the pools surroundings and if you want to lower the pools chlorine levels the introduction of a little ozone is also a possibility

Can you swim in pool hat has a normal chlorine level but the free chlorine level is high?
There is 3 measurements of chlorine in a pool or spa. Total chlorine, combined chlorine, and free available chlorine. Free available chlorine is the good chlorine that is active in the pool killings germs and algae. Combined chlorine is chlorine is basically chlorine that was once active but has killed germs or bacteria and is now inactive in the pool. Total chlorine is free available and combined chlorine added together. If your combined chlorine is higher than free available chlorine then the water needs to be shocked to eliminate the combined chlorine. But be careful here. If you don't reach what's called break point you will only add to the combined chlorine. There are products on the market which will only remove combined chlorine without effecting your free available chlorine if you are unsure about reaching breakpoint. Hope this helps.

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.
