Beyond Chlorine: Learn About Supplemental Systems for Inground Pools
Anthony & Sylvan Pool Supplies offers mineral and saltwater-based pool systems
While traditional chlorine is the most popular and cost effective sanitation method for pools, there are some other options available. In recent years, Chlorine generators “salt water pools” and mineral sanitizers have become very popular. Both options still rely on chlorine, but offer more benefits than traditional chlorine. Read more about these two water sanitizer systems from our pool supply experts.
Mineral-Based Systems for Inground Pools
Mineral-based sanitizing systems use a variety of natural minerals such as silver and copper in combination with your current filtration system to clean and sanitize pool water.
Mineral-based systems for inground pools can reduce the use of chlorine up to 50{1b1ead7f491439c25739d151ffbe191d851c0b7a2d88cd70f9532c1b95ba4fbe}, while at the same time creating soft and clear water.
- The Nature2® Fusion Soft is an all-in-one salt water sanitizer. It works with all swimming pool filtration systems and dispenses minerals while generating chlorine, meaning your pool is constantly sanitized.
- The Nature2® Fusion Inground system operates with all pool filtration systems and works using a mineral cartridge in combination with chlorine. This system features an automatic chlorine tab feeder, stretching out the time between chlorine needing to be added. It also comes with an adaptable chlorine output handle.
Salt-Based Systems for Inground Pools
Salt-based sanitizing systems use salt that has been added to the pool water to create chlorine. Instead of adding traditional chlorine directly into the water of your pool, salt is converted into chlorine through these pool systems in a process called electrolysis.
As salt dissolves in pool water, a natural balance of chlorine is maintained, making pool upkeep minimal. Maintenance is low; usually pool owners only need to check chlorine levels about once a week. This process also eliminates the need to store or transport chlorine from the store.
Including the Nature2® Fusion Soft, which combines salt and minerals, Anthony & Sylvan Pool Supplies installs and carries three different salt based purifying systems with varying benefits:
- The Jandy AquaPure® is an electronic system with an easy-to-read indicator for salt levels. It also features a reversing cycle to eliminate calcium buildup, automatic self-cleaning, and an electronic water flow detection.
- The Hayward Salt & Swim can be used for pools up to 25,000 gallons and can be installed for new or existing pools. Installation is super easy, pool owners can install this system within 20 minutes or so.
