What can I use as a substitute for pool salt?
One of the most common questions we get asked is what can be used as a substitute for pool salt. The short answer is that there really is no suitable substitute for pool salt. Pool salt is specifically designed to lower the pH of pool water, which in turn allows the chlorine to work more effectively. There are some products on the market that claim to be able to do this, but in our experience, they are not nearly as effective as using the proper amount of pool salt. We always recommend using the correct amount of pool salt for your pool, as this will ensure that your pool stays clean and safe for everyone to enjoy.

What is pool salt used for?
Salt is a key ingredient in keeping swimming pools clean and safe for swimmers. Pool salt is used to generate chlorine, which is essential for killing bacteria and other contaminants that can make swimmers sick. Chlorine is produced by passing an electrical current through salt water, a process known as electrolysis. Pool salt also helps to stabilize pH levels, preventing the water from becoming too acidic or alkaline. In addition, salt can help to keep pool surfaces smooth and free of algae growth.
How much does it cost to replace salt cell?
If your salt cell needs to be replaced, the cost will depend on a few factors. First, the size of your pool will play a role in how much it costs to replace the cell. Second, the type of cell you have will also affect the cost. Finally, the company you use to replace the cell will also impact the price.Generally speaking, you can expect to pay between $500 and $1000 to replace your salt cell. However, if you have a very large pool or a very specialized type of cell, the cost could be higher. Similarly, if you use a discount company or do the work yourself, you could save money on this project.
