Take a look at a public fountain, and what will you likely see? You’ll probably spy a bunch of silver and copper coins sitting on the bottom, nickels and pennies and whatnot. You’ll undoubtedly notice that the water is incredibly clear, and much to your chagrin, clearer than your pool, into which you’ve grown used to throwing chlorine tablets and pool shock to achieve the needed balance to make your pool safe enough to swim in.
What the Heck Is Going On?
You might be wondering how your pool is less clear than a fountain holding a bunch of dirty coins. Who knows where those coins have been, right? Well, the answer is quite simple: Science. Science is responsible for that clean fountain, in a different way than it is for your clean but not so clear pool. We know what you’re wondering now, coins, cleaning the pool? You don’t buy it. Trust us, though, when we tell you that you can effectively clean your pool without the need for chemical additives.
The truth is that natural processes are at work when those coins are thrown into the fountain. They release ions that kill algae and bacteria without the harmful added effects of chlorine or other chemical agents. You might be wondering if the “ionization” seen in the fountain can be reproduced at home. Well, we’re here to tell you that they can. You, too, can use the process of ionization to clean your home pool without the need for nasty chemicals. Clearwater Pool Systems has the technology and expertise to help you get started.
One Option, Considered
You might think that a chlorine free pool shock is just what you need to get that clear, clean pool you’ve always wanted. You need to “shock” your pool frequently, especially after a rainstorm. Normally, this uses elements similar to chlorine that could end up being just as harmful to you even though your pool is seemingly clean. However, a chlorine free pool shock achieves the same effects without the use of chlorine. This is truly wonderful, but you’re still using chemicals to do a job that is not nearly as effective as those coins mentioned earlier.
We Can Do You One Better
If you let Clearwater Pool Systems install a pool ionizer in your swimming pool, you’ll be able to see how the processes at work in that fountain keeping its water clean can give you the clean, clear swimming pool you’ve always wanted. If you want to combine efforts, such as using chlorine free pool shock and an ionizer, you won’t see any negative effects. The safe and natural minerals in the ionizers we use can provide you with the right combination of effective pool cleaning tech without the lingering harmful effects of simply dousing your swimming pool with chemicals each day.
