The result is soft, fresh and clean water without any secondary effects of chemical products. The INTEX swimming pool sanitation systems combine unique two stage technology to disinfect the water of the swimming pool. Use only sodium chloride salt that is at least 99.8% pure. Check your owners manual to verify if it is also acceptable to use water conditioning salt pellets , but it will take longer for these to dissolve. The purer the salt, the better is the performance of the electrolytic cell. The “Saltwater System” name describes more clearly the advantages of the product and eliminates confusion with traditional pool chemicals.
With the Saltwater System’s electrocatalytic oxidation process, water molecules are split into oxidants that help keep the water clean. The amount of Sodium Hypochlorite generated by the saltwater system is reduced by approximately 60%, much less than other saltwater systems generate. Enjoy the same process used at many resorts in your own pool with the 16-inch Intex Krystal Clear Sand Filter Pump and Saltwater System. This also combines a two-stage technology to sanitize the pool water. Firstly, an undetectable level of naturally occurring swimmer-safe chlorine is produced when you add natural salt to the pool.
The biggest benefits are that you use less chemicals, have less problems with the alkalinity, and it doesn’t damage your skin or hair. Forget about packaged pool chemicals and adding chlorine, messing around with measurements etc. – this unit will deliver intex baby float consistent clean water without potential harsh side effects. It is capable of delivering 12 gph of chlorine and is super simple and easy to install. People like the fact that the saltwater system doesn’t require any chemical maintenance and cleans itself.

A red light tells you either the salt is too low or too high. Brush the pool floor to support the dissolving process. Note that you will need to set your pump timer to start 5 minutes before and 15 minutes after the scheduled run time of the chlorinator. The flow sensor will prevent the chlorinator from working if the pump is not running. This process takes water molecules and splits them into oxidants which destroy contaminants such as algae and bacteria. This second stage is so effective that the amount of chlorine needed is reduced by up to 60%.
