Why is my salt water pool not generating chlorine?
Chlorine generators need salt to produce chlorine and can’t do so if the amount of salt in the water is too low. The desired salinity level in a saltwater pool is between 2,500 and 3,500 ppm. If your salinity is below 2,500 ppm, the generator will not be able to produce chlorine.
How do you chlorinate a salt water pool?
Here’s how it works: You add pool-grade salt to your pool and wait until it dissolves. Power is applied to the chlorine generator to convert the dissolved salt into chlorine. Fresh, pure chlorine treated water is returned to the pool for complete sanitization and swimming comfort. It’s as simple as that!
What kind of chlorine does a salt chlorinator produce?
The chlorine generator (also known as salt cell, salt generator, salt chlorinator, or SWG) uses electrolysis in the presence of dissolved salt to produce chlorine gas or its dissolved forms, hypochlorous acid and sodium hypochlorite, which are already commonly used as sanitizing agents in pools.
Can I add salt and chlorine at the same time?
yes you can. It does not matter to the pool water how the chlorine is introduced – just that it is introduced. So in this sense you can add liquid chlorine, granular chlorine or even chlorine pucks to your pool if you have a salt system and this is no problem at all.
What should my salt cell be set at?
Try to maintain a consistent salt level of between 2,700 parts per million (ppm) and 3,400 ppm, with 3,200 ppm being ideal.
