Salt chlorine generators are, in my professional opinion, the best residential pool chlorination method available today. I recommend them. My company installs them. And they fail constantly. Not because the technology is flawed. Because the information gap between what owners are told at installation and what the chemistry actually requires is enormous. Today we go inside the cell. The electrolysis reaction, why your pH rises every single time it runs, why cell scaling happens and how to stop it, and the three most common mistakes that turn a great system into a frustrating one. Plus UV, ozone, and the setup I actually recommend when someone asks me what the best possible pool looks like.
