What is salt used for?
Salt chlorination or salt electrolysis is a method of disinfecting pool water, both public and private, that replaces traditional methods using chlorine and/or bromine. Salt chlorination uses the chlorine present in salt as a natural disinfectant.
Through an electrolytic process where electric discharges are supplied, the salt breaks down into the two chemical elements it consists of (chlorine and sodium). The chlorine, in contact with water, develops a strong disinfectant character.
This process, much more natural and environmentally friendly, replaces or reduces the use of chemical products. It does not cause irritation to swimmers, does not cause discoloration, nor does it generate bad odours.
How much salt do I need for my salt chlorinator?
The amount of salt required for the proper operation of the salt chlorinator varies depending on the type of chlorinator and the amount of water. We recommend always consulting your salt chlorinator’s manual before dosing the salt amount, as these specifications may vary according to model and manufacturer.
Standard salinity Salt Chlorinators
You should dose between 4 and 8 g per litre of water
Low salinity Salt Chlorinators
You should dose between 1 and 2 g of salt per litre
We provide you with a list of the salt you will need for the main pool sizes:
| Pool size | Salt weight | Salt bags |
| 5 x 2 m | 50 Kg | 2 bags |
| 6 x 3 m | 90 Kg | 4 bags |

| 8 x 4 m | 160 Kg | 7 bags |
| 10 x 5 m | 250 Kg | 10 bags |
| 12 x 6 m | 360 Kg | 15 bags |
These recommendations are for standard salinity chlorinators; the calculation is valid in a temperate climate. For hot climates, it is necessary to add 20% more salt.
