Saltwater ozone systems seem to be the promising future of swimming pool sanitization. Not only do the two systems complement each other's shortcomings but provide mutual benefits too! The saltwater generator uses dissolved salt in the pool water, which more closely matches the natural salinity of the human body. The water "feels" softer and silkier without the dryness that chlorine alone can cause. The chlorine produced provides the necessary residual oxidizer in a regular, predictable dose. The ozonator, which also operates with the generator, oxidizes and sanitizes the entire pool every time the pool "turns over" because it is also attached inline with the saltwater generator. The most likely part to fail in saltwater chlorine generators is the electrode due to calcium buildup from pool water. Ozone prevents this build-up and prolongs electrode life. Like any other product this new technological marriage needs some attention. Since saltwater generators produce unstabilized chlorine, stabilizer (cyanuric acid), has to be added to the water. Pool water chemistry needs to be monitored regularly to maintain proper alkalinity and hardness levels. Typical electrode life for a saltwater generator is between 3 and 5 years. Ozonator bulbs typically last 9000 hours or about 3 years, corona discharge units are good for about 15000 hours or 5 years before being replaced. Plumbing a system like this is relatively straightforward and if service is needed all the components are easy to get at.

Whether building a New Pool or thinking of modifying an existing pool, this new system is worth a close look. It works with any kind of above ground or inground pool and with chlorine prices increasing annually this system may be just the thing to enjoy better water, lower costs and less maintenance for your New Pool. Financing your New Pool is simply a matter of doing a little homework and finding a lender that understands the unique needs and benefits of a swimming pool addition. If you follow these simple financing tips, you'll soon understand that very little is different about financing a pool when compared to other major investments like cars and homes. And that includes potential tax advantages you may not have considered. Most lenders understand that a swimming pool is an investment that will probably add value to your property.

o Many lenders will consider long-term mortgages as a viable lending option, and some will finance based on the estimated value of your property AFTER you've made the improvement. Do your homework and seek out a lender that will work with you to create advantageous financing for your investment. That means you need to do the same kind of homework you did when you first purchased the property.
