ClearBlue Ionizers

SALT GENERATORS cons

What are ClearBlue Ionizers

Here at Crestwood Pools we advocate health and safety not only for our environment, but for our bodies as well. There has been a growing popularity in our industry for the implementation of salt-chlorine generators. These systems are marketed by some manufacturers as an “alternative” to chlorine by way of the description “salt generator” to make consumers believe they are swimming in water that is equivalent to swimming in the ocean. NOTHING could be further from the truth. In reality, these systems do, in fact, generate CHLORINE. We promote a product called the ClearBlue™Ionizer system. It keeps your pool clean NATURALLY with the use of copper and silver. Used in conjunction with a non-chlorine oxidizer, a chlorine-free swimming experience is easily attained. For more info, read below…

SALT GENERATOR

PROS

  • NO more mixing
  • NO measuring
  • NO handling chlorine
  • System is automated, therefore no daily chore involved

SALT GENERATOR

cons

  • The liquid chlorine produced has a pH of 11.7 (proper range is 7.2 – 7.8), therefore constant use of pH down is required, otherwise pool is in a scaling mode.
  • Stabilizer must be added or pools chlorine will dissipate with sunlight
  • Salt may corrode pumps, heaters, ladders, and even the walls of steel pools (premature corrosion of pool or equipment is not covered under any manufacturer warranty)
  • Constant splashing of salted water leaves a salt residue on pools decks and coping. Decks and coping should be sealed or at least hosed down after each pools use.
  • Occasional use of algaecide, clarifier, stain and scale and shocking will still be necessary
  • System must be cleaned once a season or the system will scale up causing the cell to shut down.
  • Cell must be replaced every 2 – 4 years at a cost of $400 to $600 making it the most expensive sanitizer on the market.
  • More and more cities (i.e.: Toronto) are banning the backwashing or pumping of salt chlorinated water into the sewers or storm drains
  • If the system should run dry for any reason, the possibility exists that it might explode (manufacturers warning is in the directions)
