Sait-mater chiorine gen- erators can help reduce the amount of work and time needed ta maintain your pool. Used in Australia since the late '60s, over 95% of residential pools there 'now use this type of system. The benefits of a sait water chiorine system include: " reduced sanitization maintenance; " fewer chemicals required " eliminate the need ta buy, transport and store chiorine; " less irritation after using the pool; " cleaner, clearer water; and *softer, siikier water quality. The level of sait used in sait mater chia- rine applications is iess than one-tenth than that of seamater. This arn sait content is actualiy very close ta the naturai saiinity of the human body and leaves your skin hydrated, flot irritated. In tact, many people comment that sait-mater chiorinated pool mater feels very soit and silky and many cannot even taste the sait in the mater. Sait-mater chiorine systems use eiec- trolysis to generate chiorine. As the mater passes through a speciaiy designed chia- rine-generating celi, the sait (NaCi) is bro- ken domn and combines mith the mater (H20) to form chiorine gas (C12) and caus- tic soda <NaOH). The chiorine generated instantiy sanitizes the mater and the caostic soda helps adjust the pool ta the correct pH leveis, mhich is important for bather com- fort. The chiorine and caustic soda then recombine to form sait again and the process repeats itself. Since the sait is not TRUST!DlY(ONRCORS & OPEN& MXMMFOR OVER 40 YARSI WCRIDAY yqe.
