Saltwater

Saltwater chlorine generators in Camp Hill, PA

Bob's saltwater technology: chlorine generators that cut the odors, the sting and the stored chemicals.

What a chlorine generator changes

A saltwater pool still sanitizes with chlorine. What changes is where the chlorine comes from. A chlorine generator, the salt cell, makes it from salt dissolved in the pool water as that water passes through the cell, so the pool produces its own instead of being fed from stored product.

Saltwater technology sits on Bob's service list next to pumps, filters and heaters, and it is planned with them. A generator is only as good as the flow and the equipment around it, which is why the cell, the pump and the filter get looked at together in Camp Hill rather than one at a time.

Four things you stop dealing with

Bob's page for saltwater technology puts the benefits in four plain lines. No more noxious odors. No more stinging eyes. No more irritated skin. No more storing toxic chemicals.

The last one is the one a household feels in the garage or the shed: fewer jugs and buckets to shelve, keep away from children and keep away from metal fittings. The first three are felt in the water itself, on the swim and afterward.

Longer equipment life, fewer algae

Two lasting gains are on Bob's list: pool and equipment life extended, and algae prevention. Algae prevention comes down to steady, even sanitizer in the water, which is what a running generator is built to hold, and steady conditions are easier on the surfaces and parts the water touches.

A salt cell is equipment like any other, so it is checked at the spring opening and the fall closing, the two visits Bob already makes. Call (717) 761-5030 and ask him whether your pool is a fit for a chlorine generator.
