Benefits
Why Choose Saltwater Pools?
Saltwater pools use a salt chlorine generator to produce chlorine naturally through an elegant electrolysis process. This innovative system transforms ordinary salt into a powerful sanitizer, creating a swimming environment that's remarkably different from traditional chlorine pools.
Key advantages include: Softer, silkier water that's noticeably gentler on skin and eyes, reduced need for harsh chemical additives, and lower long-term maintenance costs. The result is a more natural, enjoyable swimming experience that families love.

Challenges
Common Saltwater Pool Challenges
Understanding potential issues helps you maintain peak pool performance and avoid costly repairs.
Cloudy Water
