Chlorine vs. Saltwater Swimming Pools

Are you aware that there are almost 10.5 million private swimming pools across the United States?

There’s nothing like a nice and cool swimming pool on a hot summer’s day, or even a warm and cozy heated pool during the winter. Before you make the investment, it’s important to learn about your two main swimming pool options.

Are you wondering what you need to know? Keep reading to learn all about chlorine vs. saltwater swimming pools.

Chlorine Pools

Chlorine is one of the most popular types of pool. Chlorine is used as a method of fighting off bacteria and other germs but it also requires you to keep it chlorinated on a regular basis. This may involve dumping the chlorine in as a liquid or using tablets that dissolve.

To figure out whether or not the pool needs more chlorine, you’ll have to use tests that give you the needed information. After all, you wouldn’t want to put too much chlorine in the pool.

In addition to chlorine, it’s important to add algaecide so that your pool doesn’t slowly become an Everglades swamp. It’s always best to emphasize the prevention of pool problems because it’s much easier and cheaper to deal with.

No pool comes without at least some disadvantages. The chlorine can create an unpleasant smell and can also irritate people’s eyes and skin. The pool can even tint some people’s blonde hair slightly greenish.

Saltwater Pools

When it comes to chlorine vs. saltwater, many people prefer saltwater because it avoids the skin and eye irritation caused by chlorine. As if that wasn’t good enough, some people even say the water feels nicer on the skin.

You might be surprised to learn that saltwater pools have chlorine as well, but the amount of chlorine is much lower. Instead of using tablets or liquid chlorine, the salt that’s poured into the pool is then converted into chlorine through the technology of a salt-chlorine generator.

In terms of salt, the best types are solar, mechanically evaporated, and mined salt. You should do your best to avoid salts with additives, such as Himalayan salt, Epsom salt, and others.

As you look into the salt water pool cost, you can ask an expert which types of salt they personally recommend. Aside from all the positives, a downside of a saltwater pool is its tendency to corrode pool fixtures.

Ready to Choose Between Chlorine and Saltwater Swimming Pools?

Now that you’ve learned all about chlorine vs. saltwater swimming pools, you can decide which one is best suited to your needs. That way, you can throw regular pool parties that will end up being the talk of the town.

Are you wondering what else you can do to upgrade your home? There are so many different projects of various sizes you could take on. For more ideas in this category and others, be sure to stay on top of our blog.
