Curtis Pools is a licensed and insured swimming pool contractor specializing in salt water pool conversions in Largo, Florida. More homeowners and commercial pool owners are switching to salt water systems due to their lower maintenance requirements, cost savings, and enhanced swimming experience. Our team ensures a smooth and professional transition from traditional chlorine pools to efficient, eco-friendly salt water pools.
Why Convert to a Salt Water Pool?
Salt water pools offer numerous benefits over traditional chlorine pools, making them an increasingly popular choice. Unlike conventional pools that require frequent chlorine additions, salt water pools generate chlorine naturally through a salt chlorine generator. This process provides a more consistent level of sanitation, reduces harsh chemical use, and creates a gentler swimming experience.
Advantages of Salt Water Pool Systems
- Lower Maintenance Costs: Salt water pools require fewer chemicals and less frequent treatments, saving money over time.
- Gentler on Skin & Eyes: The natural chlorine production produces softer water that doesn’t irritate traditional chlorine pools.
- Eco-Friendly Solution: Reducing chemical usage makes salt water pools a more sustainable choice.
- Consistent Water Quality: Salt chlorine generators maintain balanced chlorine levels, reducing spikes and dips in sanitation.
- Extended Pool Equipment Life: Salt water pools cause less wear and tear on pool equipment, extending the lifespan of pumps, filters, and heaters.
Our Salt Water Pool Conversion Process
1. Pool Inspection & System Evaluation
Before converting your pool, our team assesses its current condition, including existing filtration and plumbing systems. We ensure your pool is compatible with a salt water system and recommend any necessary upgrades.
2. Draining & Cleaning
If required, we partially or fully drain the pool to remove excess chlorine and stabilizers. We also thoroughly clean the pool’s surfaces to ensure a fresh start.
3. Salt Chlorine Generator Installation
We install a high-quality salt chlorine generator, which converts dissolved salt into chlorine, providing continuous sanitation. We ensure the system is correctly integrated with your pool’s plumbing and electrical systems for optimal performance.
4. Adding Salt & Balancing Water Chemistry
Once the generator is in place, we add the appropriate amount of pool-grade salt. Our team carefully balances the water chemistry, adjusting pH, alkalinity, and calcium hardness to create a comfortable and stable swimming environment.
5. System Testing & Final Adjustments
We test the salt chlorine generator and overall water circulation system to ensure everything functions correctly. Adjustments are made as needed to optimize performance.
6. Owner Education & Maintenance Guidance
We provide detailed instructions on maintaining your new salt water system, including monitoring salt levels, cleaning the generator, and ensuring ongoing water balance. Our team is always available for follow-up support and routine maintenance.
