The #1 Myth
Corrosion - There is no corrosion in a salt water hot tub, here is why:

Corrosion requires acids.  All of the acids that are found
in hot tubs come from traditional chemicals.
(especially pucks, Bromine or Chlorine).  Why? 
Traditional pucks and powders are a manufactured
in factory with all sorts of additives to make them work
as intended.  These additives have lots of acids in them,
pucks actually have glues and binders in them that are
highly acidic and require you to drain your tub after only
a few months because they accumulate and cannot
be removed. 

Don't believe us? 
If you ever have to add an ALK +
(or ph+ for pool people out there), you are simply
balancing out high acidities with adding in an Alkaline. 
Alkaline is the opposite of acid.
(High Alk = Low acid / Low Alk = High acid)

With traditional hot tub chemicals you will never
add an ALK-.  What is ALK minus?  It is citric acid. 
You never add an ALK- because the acid levels
are always high.
 
Why are we telling you this? 
In a salt water hot tub you will never add an Alk+,
because there is no more pucks and powders, its all
liquids.  This means you control the acid levels in
your water. When removing all of the pucks and
powders, we removed all of the acid.  In fact,
California Spa & Fitness has seen a
dramatic decrease in service issues since salt
water hot tubs were brought out.

Warranties - Since corrosion is not a factor, warranties are not affected.

A salt water hot tub is a great option to add to a Hydropool hot tub,
here is a few reasons why...

Why Not spend your leisure time enjoying your hot tub instead of maintaining it?
Automatic bromine generation for hot tubs and spas just took a giant step forward. The Genesis brand automatic bromine generator is the smartest, safest, easiest and most cost effective way to keep your spa safe and sparkling clear! Hot tubs maintained by a Genesis system are virtually maintenance free and use fewer chemicals. The technology, while taking years to develop, is easy to understand, easy to use and totally hands free. Make Your Spa Fun Again!

How does the technology work?
First, sodium bromine ("NaBr " - a close relative to sodium chlorine - "NaCl" - otherwise known as table salt) is added to your hot tub's water. The dissolved bromine ions are circulated through a bromine generating contact cell located in your hot tub's plumbing. This converts the bromine ions into free bromine (bromine is the recommended sanitizer for hot tubs and spas) before reverting back to sodium bromine - thus completing the perpetual cycle. Additional sodium bromine is only added when your water level declines due to splash out, or when you drain and refill the tub.
The system's electrodes are comprised of high density, ultra-porous "graphite". The controller operates at extremely low DC voltages, resulting in the electrical cost of operation at just pennies a day.
Synthetic graphite is utilized in the revolutionary electrode cell, providing a surface area far greater than available wuth metal electrodes. The GENESIS electrode is made up of 2 of these unique and powerful plates. The plates measure 1 inch wide by 8 inches long and 1/2 inch thick.
         

What are the benefits of going to Salt Water Technology?
1. Decrease the Draining Frequency
One of the primary reasons that you should drain your hot tub approximately every three months is due the 'dissolved solids' (TDS) that build up in your water. High TDS levels will begin to negatively impact your water quality and can increase your operating costs and hot tub maintenance.
The Hydropool Salt Water Bromine System significantly reduces the amount of chemicals that are required for your hot tub and therefore will minimize the impact on your TDS.

2. Reduce Regular Shocking
The Hydropool Salt Water Bromine System and your ozonator work synergistically to provide safe and sparkling water. Your ozonator is designed to be a daily 'shocking program' working to keep the hot tub water refreshed while reducing the demand on your salt system.

Please note: After heavy bather loads and/or regular usage weekly shock treatment is recommended to remove all non-filterable wastes that interfere with the salt water system so that you can achieve maximum water quality.

The Hydropool advantage
With the uniqueness of hot tubs and hot water management, the Hydropool Salt Water Bromine System has been specifically designed to perform in a hot water environment to ensure maximum water quality and comfort while at the same time being easy to use and convenient.
