Salt electrolysis: the advantages that you should not underestimate

One of the most significant and advantageous innovations in the world of swimming pools

In the world of the swimming pool, one of the most significant and beneficial innovations is the electrolysis of salt. This revolutionary process allows common table salt to be transformed into chlorine, eliminating the need to handle traditional chemicals. But how does it work? And how can it improve your pool experience? That’s where Dottorpool comes in. With their expertise and advanced salt electrolysis services, they are making this technology accessible to all pool owners, offering safer, more cost-effective, and low-maintenance water management.

Salt electrolysis, a useful definition
Salt electrolysis is a fascinating chemical process that involves the use of electricity to break down sodium chloride molecules, better known as common table salt, into key components: sodium and chlorine. This is done in an electrolytic cell, where two electrodes, usually made of conductive material such as platinum, are immersed in a salt solution dissolved in water.
When an electric current is applied to the two electrodes, a chemical reaction occurs. The anode (positive electrode) attracts chloride ions (Cl-) and oxidizes them, releasing chlorine molecules (Cl2), while the cathode (negative electrode) attracts sodium ions (Na+) and reduces them, producing metallic sodium (Na).
This process has numerous industrial applications and in particular in the safety of water for the swimming pool.

The countless advantages of salt electrolysis for swimming pools
Salt electrolysis can also be used as a swimming pool water disinfection system and offers a series of advantages that are gradually changing the way swimming pools are managed, especially those in the open air or, for example, if they are located near equipped workout areas.
That’s why more and more pool owners are choosing to abandon traditional chlorine in favor of this advanced solution.

Safer pool to swim in
One of the main benefits of salt electrolysis is the creation of a safer environment for swimming. This process eliminates the need to handle and store traditional chlorine.
Chlorine is produced in a continuous and controlled manner, ensuring that the pool constantly maintains an adequate chlorine concentration to fight bacteria and contaminants. This makes the pool water suitable for everyone, but it is especially reassuring for parents of young children and those who suffer from allergies or chemical sensitivities.

Save time and effort
Salt electrolysis not only ensures a safer pool and reduced long-term costs, but also offers an invaluable benefit: saving time and effort. Once this system is installed, maintenance becomes remarkably simple.
Say goodbye to the need to handle chlorine tablets periodically and make complex measurements. The automated system takes care of everything, regulating the concentration of chlorine in the water continuously and precisely.
This means you can forget about annoying dosing and measuring tasks, saving you valuable hours of work and giving you more time to relax and have fun in your pool. With salt electrolysis, enjoying your pool to the fullest has never been easier.

Long-term cost reduction
Although salt electrolysis requires a slightly higher initial investment than traditional chlorine, it results in significant financial savings in the long run. The reason is simple: salt is the only ingredient required to produce chlorine.
It will no longer be necessary to buy and store large quantities of traditional chlorine. In addition, electrolysers, the devices used for salt electrolysis, have a long lifespan, further reducing costs in the long run.
