Alternatives to a Salt Water Pool
By [http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Ben_E._Anderson]Ben E. Anderson
It is important to be aware that there are far more environmental friendly and more affordable alternatives to saltwater pools today; you have more than one choice to consider. Salt water pools use chlorine as well and more and more studies are revealing the harmful health repercussions of chlorine swimming pools. Oxygen treated pools are becoming more and more popular as they are far more environmentally friendly, they are chemical free and they are safer on your family and friends you invite to swim in your pool.
As this natural system does not use chlorine to combat the bacteria in your pool you can count on relief from red eye, itchy skin and even the longer life of your swim wear. Also you will find less wear and tear on your actual pool as when salt water pool systems are used a large amount of calcium can build on the walls and floor causing unwanted scaling which can literally ruin your in ground pool and cost you tens of thousands of dollars to repair. This type of swimming pool requires little to no maintenance and when this is said about oxygen treated pools, it is true. You only are required to spend less than a few minutes a day checking on your pool during the swimming months of the year.
You will find the electrical and overall running cost of this system to be incredible, less than $1 per day on average. This is the type of maintenance fees everyone is looking for, especially when the swimming pool is not only safe for your swimmers but safe for the environment as well, an amazing combination for less than $1 per day. This is quite a bit lower than the incredible expense it costs to run a salt water pool.
These systems are created for easy installation and easy maintenance as well as 6month free support to help you use your system effectively and most importantly efficiently. The oxygen treated system uses oxygen electrodes to shock the water in your pool when it passes through the pressure line. You test your water PH levels once per week as well as the copper levels. You then switch the button on the electric control unit and ionize 4-8hrs depending on the size of your pool. This will put a safe amount of copper into your pool which more effectively kills bacteria and algae.
This is the number one alternative to chlorine and salt water system pools as they are 100% safe and you can be confident when you go for a swim that you will come out feeling refreshed and not at all dried out as you sometimes will in a chlorine pool. With so many different benefits and cost reductions for a much more efficient pool, it can be hard to understand why some people are still choosing the more expensive and the more dangerous swimming pool options today. Take the time to learn what these popular chemicals can actually do to you and you will wonder why you even thought to let your family swim in them.
