Benefits of Saltwater Pools: A Healthier Swimming Experience

Pool salt systems work by converting salt ions to chloride ions. The systems have a conversion unit where the salt and water enter. An electrical current is used to convert the ions and the chlorinated water is then directed into the pool in a process known as electrolysis. There are several benefits to switching from a traditional chlorine system to a saltwater pool system. 

The benefits of a saltwater pool system include: 

• No need to add harsh chemicals – Pool salt systems create chlorine through a natural process. You won’t need to add chlorine tablets to the pool. 
• Never running out of chlorine – Since the pool naturally creates chlorine whenever the pump is running, you won’t have to worry about the chlorine in the pool running low. 
• Better water quality – The water from a pool salt system is cleaner and softer, which makes swimming more pleasant and comfortable. 
• Reduced odors – Since the pool gradually creates chlorine naturally, rather than dumping larger quantities into the pool, there is less chlorine odor with a saltwater pool system. 
• Easy maintenance – The system requires little maintenance, other than adding salt when needed and cleaning the salt cells periodically. 

Caring For Your Pool's Salt System

A saltwater system is an excellent way for homeowners in Keller, TX to maintain a saltwater pool. This system makes chlorine in the water, which helps keep your pool clean and safe for swimming. When it comes to day-to-day operations of salt water systems, the filtration pump should run between 8-12 hours per day to effectively filter out any debris or dirt from the water. Regularly cleaning skimmers and other areas around the equipment can help minimize any issues with salt buildup and ensure proper functioning of the salt system. Additionally, testing of pH levels should be done regularly (ideally weekly) to check chlorine levels and ensure that everything is functioning properly.

Saltwater System Conversions

Converting from a traditional chlorine pool to a saltwater system requires the installation of a saltwater chlorine generator. It is important to select a pool salt system that is right for the size of your pool. The factors that should be considered include the physical size of the pool, how it is used and by how many people, and the climate. Your pool technician can help you choose the best system for your swimming pool. 

Although pool salt systems require little maintenance, repairs will eventually be needed for any type of pool equipment. In addition to any unexpected problems with the system, the salt cells in pool salt systems need to be replaced about every five years. 

Your system needs repair service when the pump is: 

• Vibrating - A vibrating pump can be caused by a number of different things, including a build-up of salt on the pump's impeller or a problem with the pump's bearings. Vibrating pumps can cause damage to pool equipment and may even cause the salt system to fail completely.
• Humming sound - If your pump is making a humming sound, it could mean a few different things, including the bearings in the pump going bad, the impeller being broken or damaged, a problem with the motor itself, something wrong with the electrical system, or the pool salt system needing to be cleaned out and serviced.
• Making any other unusual noises - If you hear any other unusual noises coming from your pool pump, It is always best to err on the side of caution and call a professional. Otherwise, you could end up causing serious damage to your pump - and your pool. 

If you hear anything out of the ordinary, it is best to call a professional to inspect your system. After the technician evaluates the system, the problem and any repairs that are needed will be explained to you.
