Whats the difference between salt water pools and chlorine pools?
They are both in fact chlorine pools chlorine pools The difference is that in one you add chlorine directly And in the salt water pool there is a chlorine generator that makes chlorine from the salt that that has been added to the pool. Until recently sodium chloride (common salt) was used in these pools and this gave the water a nice feel for the swimmers. Recently however a new system using magnesium and potassium chloride has been introduced making the water healthy to swim in and good to water the garden with if you are inclined to reuse back wash.
