Keeping Your Pool Algae Free
Anyone who has ever had a pool knows how much money and work can go into its maintenance. You are constantly having to check the Ph and alkalinity levels and add chemicals. Not only is this time consuming, but can be quite expensive as well.
Even after you find the perfect combination of chemicals to maintain your pool levels, one good rainstorm and suddenly your pool becomes cloudy. You scramble to get more chemicals in to clear the pool up, but in a day or so, you start to see the dreaded green. Algae is beginning to take over. You shock the pool, wait a day or so and add yet even more chemicals. The pool eventually clears, but it is a day-to-day worry that the cycle will repeat itself.
The chemicals that go into the pool regularly can have a negative effect on your skin, eyes and clothing. Chlorine can be drying for your skin and hair. It can irritate your eyes and fade the color from your clothing and towels. Not to mention the ill-effects it can have on the liner of your pool.
There are benefits to chlorine. It kills algae, which is what makes your pool turn green. Without it, you could not safely use your pool. When added in the form of chlorine tablets or liquid, your water is getting a high concentrated dose all at once.
There is an alternative to using chlorine tablets or liquid. The Hayward Aqua Rite T Cell 15 Chlorinator uses natural salt to chlorinate your pool water. Even though your pool will still contain a level of chlorine, using a chlorinator produces a much milder, natural product.
Salt is made up of sodium and chlorine. The T Cell 15 Chlorinator separates the salt compound, and mixes it with the water to create hypochlorous acid. This finished product is what works to kill algae and keep your pool clean. The chlorinator is able to maintain a steady supply of salt chlorine in the pool, which eliminates the need to shock your pool levels. The result is pool water that is softer and more gentle on your skin, hair and eyes.
Because the salt level in the pool is low, there is little or no salt water taste. You won’t have to worry about getting a mouthful of what tastes like ocean water. The chlorinator uses a dial to adjust the amount of chlorine needed to suit your pool. If your Ph level falls below the required amount, you can simply raise the amount of salt output to your pool, which will increase the amount of chlorine.
There are many benefits to converting to a Hayward Aqua Rite Chlorinator. There won’t be any need to store bottles of chemicals, which cuts down on the cost of operating the pool. There is no need to add tablets or measure liquid into your pool regularly, resulting in more time for you to relax and enjoy your pool.
