If by chlorine pool, you mean a pool filled with fresh water that uses chlorine (or bromine) as a sanitizer, then the question really is: Is a salt water pool faster than a fresh water pool?
If by "faster", you mean ability to swim fast, then the answer is the salt water pool.
A swimmer floats higher on salt water, therefore there is less water contacting less surface area on the swimmer's body, therefore, there is less resistance and a person could swim faster in a salt water pool.
The salinity in a salt water pool is so minimal (maybe 1/6th to 1/12th the salinity of the ocean) the boyancy difference between a fresh water and salt water pool is minimal, if even measurable. However, swim times are measured in such small fractions of a second, the difference would be measurable in say Olympic type events, but not in your local swim club or school pool.
Both answers above make good observations. I must say, though, that I disagree with the conclusion of the first. Having more surface area exposed makes for more drag, not less. Submarines are faster than surface ships and porpoises are faster under water than they are on the surface, right?
What else can I help you with?
Does pool water evaporate faster then plain water?
The difference is not significant.
Does pool water evaporate faster in the south than in other areas of country?
Yes, because evaporation is increased at higher temperatures.
What is the difference when opening and or closing a chlorine pool versus salt water pool?
opening a pool is different then closing a pool because opening the pool is when the pool is all filled up with water an fixed an has chlorine in it and closing the pool is if u don't have no chlorine in it and it is not fixed or don't have no water in it
When chlorine compounds are dissolved in pool water What is pool water?
Chlorinated
Why is Pool water foggy after adding chlorine?
The chlorine is reacting to minerals in the water.
What to do when there is Way to much chlorine in your pool?
If there is too much chlorine in your pool, you can first test the water to confirm the high levels. To reduce the chlorine level, you can aerate the water by running the pool pump and opening the pool cover to let sunlight break down the chlorine. You can also partially drain the pool and refill it with fresh water to dilute the chlorine concentration.
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.
You added chlorine stablizer into the pool and now it is showing no chlorine?
Excessive levels of chlorine stabilizer can reduce the effectiveness of chlorine in the pool. Try diluting the pool water by partially draining and refilling it to lower the stabilizer concentration. Test the water again after dilution to see if the chlorine levels improve.
Does water in heated pool evaporate in the winter?
Yes, this water is evaporated.
What element is used to clean bacteria out of a pool?
Chlorine kills bacteria their for it will clean and disinfect your pool or hot tube
What are bromine chlorine and salt water pool cleaners?
Bromine is an additive that you put in a pool to sanitize the water. Chlorine is an additive that you put in a pool to sanitize the water. Salt is added to some pools to allow it to be converted electronically to chlorine with a salt water chlorinator.
How to reduce chlorine in pool?
To reduce chlorine levels in your pool, you can dilute the water by adding fresh water. You can also utilize a chlorine neutralizer to help bring down the chlorine levels quickly. Additionally, allowing the pool to sit uncovered in direct sunlight can also help to dissipate chlorine.
