Pool salt cells use electrolysis to convert dissolved salt (sodium chloride) into chlorine gas and sodium hydroxide. The chlorine sanitizes your pool while the sodium hydroxide raises pH, creating a continuous chlorination cycle.
Yes, you can shock your pool two days in a row if your chlorine levels haven't reached the proper shock level or if you're treating algae. However, test your water first to avoid over-chlorination.
Pool algae itself doesn't directly cause UTIs, but algae-contaminated water creates ideal conditions for E. coli and other UTI-causing bacteria to thrive. The solution is eliminating algae through proper chlorination and water chemistry.
Salt water pools stay clean through a salt chlorine generator that converts salt into chlorine via electrolysis. The system continuously produces sanitizing chlorine while you maintain proper chemistry levels and filtration.
