Keep your pool water clear and safe with an automated chlorine system.Unsplash
Having a home pool is one of the joys of living in Florida, but it doesn’t come about without some unpleasant chores. Thankfully, the days of schlepping those ancient, yellow chlorine jobs to and from the pool store can be over if you’re willing to make an investment in an automated pool chlorination system.
These days, technology has advanced chlorination - a necessary task to keep pool water sanitized - to the point where simple table salt can be added to the water and converted into the proper and steady level of chlorine. These systems help eliminate the need to “shock” the pool with hyper-doses of chemicals that can agitate the skin and eyes of swimmers.
Here are four pool chlorination systems that will put some added fun into your pool season.
AquaRite Electronic Salt Chlorination System
AquaRite is made by Hayward, one of the most-trusted brands in pool chlorination systems. This system needs just one teaspoon of ordinary salt per gallon of pool water, resulting in savings up to 50 percent over traditional chlorine.Amazon
BLUE WORKS Pool Chlorine Generator
This BLUE WORKS generator is compatible with competing manufacturers’ systems, including Hayward’s products. High/low salt indicators help protect the system, and its self-cleaning salt cell simplifies maintenance.Amazon
Intex Krystal Clear
The Intex Krystal Clear system is designed for above-ground pools with a capacity of 2,600 to 8,500 gallons. While the sand filter keeps the water crystal clear, the saltwater system with electro catalytic oxidation ensures sanitized swimming water.Amazon
Hayward CL200 In-line Automatic Chemical Feeder
If a saltwater conversion system is beyond your budget, then this automatic chemical feeder is a good option. It’s designed to feed slow-dissolving tablets into the water stream of your pool. This particular system can hold up to 9 pounds of chlorine or bromine tablets.Amazon
