How to Care for Sensitive Skin in the Pool: Is There Such a Thing as Gentle Chlorine?
Hot summer days are ideal for getting refreshed in a pool, but people with sensitive skin may face complications caused by chlorinated water. Conventional chlorine used to keep pool water clean can cause sensitive skin to dry out, redden, or feel uncomfortably tight, especially when the contact is prolonged. Luckily, there are gentle alternatives to chlorine that keep the water clean and the skin protected.
Gentle water maintenance with no skin irritation
Environmentally friendly alternatives to chlorine offer solutions that harm neither your body nor the environment. For sensitive skin in the pool, a saltwater system is ideal to ensure clean, irritant-free water. It is also important to regularly check the pH level and the balance of chemical compounds in the water.
How the saltwater system works
Saltwater systems convert salt dissolved in water into gentle chlorine. This process, known as electrolysis, eliminates the need for conventional chlorine and produces more gentle water which does not irritate skin or eyes. It also reduces the typical smell associated with chlorinated pools.
2-in-1 saltwater system – a practical solution
If you want to combine clean water and convenient maintenance, there are advanced models with additional features:
- Saltwater system with sand filtration (2-in-1): This model combines a saltwater system with sand filter pump to help trap impurities and keep the water even cleaner, without having to use large amounts of chemicals.
- Saltwater system with ozone generator (2-in-1): Ozone generator adds ozonisation of water to the process, which is extremely effective in killing bacteria and viruses. Ozonisation is a more natural method of disinfection that helps reduce the need for adding chemicals and provides soft, skin-friendly water.
