Ways to reduce chlorine in pools

Swimming pools if you are a user sensitive to the use of chlorine, in pools You may want to look at different solutions that can reduce chlorine.

Swimming pools The use of chlorine is one of the most common methods used to disinfect water, but recently this has ceased to be the only option. Chlorine works by bonding with organic compounds such as dead skin cells, sweat or urea in the pool to form a product called chloramine. In the pool“The substance that creates the ”famous smell" and irritates the eyes and skin is chloramine. In the pool The higher the odor, the more chlorine is needed. Shocking or oxidization are important options for removing chloramine from the pool.

Here are the methods to clean your swimming pool by keeping chlorine to a minimum;

Salt water chlorine generator: The generator, which helps to clean the pool by producing chlorine with a method called electrolysis instead of giving chlorine directly to the pool, helps to minimize the use of chlorine. The generator produces hypochlorous acid and sodium hypochlorite with the dissolved salt in the water, thus helping to clean the pool. In addition to all this, the salt generator also eliminates the need to shock the pool by using extra chlorine.

Although salt generators seem to cost more at first glance, it can be said that it is a profitable method compared to the use of traditional chemicals when pool maintenance is considered for the whole season.

Ozone generator: A good alternative to chlorine disinfection is ozone. Ozone, an odorless, colorless, tasteless gas, cleans water faster than chlorine and does not harm the skin and eyes.

Unlike chlorine, ozone generators do not give any by-products other than oxygen to the water. However, ozone generators need a very small amount of chlorine to complete the cleaning.

Silver copper ionization: Bacteria in the water are cleaned with this system that allows copper and silver electrodes to be ionized and mixed into the water. This method, which does not require the use of chlorine, does not create odor. With this system, which reduces the use of chemicals by 80 percent, human health is also largely protected and offers a harmless pool experience. Prevents algae growth. It makes the water look bright and vibrant, especially in pools.
