A.
A small amount of natural salt is dissolved
into the pool water. The sanitizer's electrolytic cell is plumbed
directly in-line with the pool equipment, typically after the
heater. The power control unit is wired to the pool timer so it
sanitizes the water when the pump is running. As the water flows
through the electrolytic cell, electrolysis separates the salt water
into it's basic components, sodium and chloride. Pure chlorine gas
is produced by this process and goes to work in the cell chamber to
oxidize bacteria and sanitize the pool water. Following this process
the chloride and sodium re-bond and become natural salt again.
Q.
How much sanitizer is produced?
A. The Atlantis power
control unit can be adjusted to produce the the level of sanitizer
needed or desired.
Q.
Will I ever need to add standard pool chlorine
again?.
A.
No, the Atlantis system will produce more than
enough sanitizer to keep your pool crystal clear year around.
Q.
Does the salt damage pool equipment?
A.
No. low levels of salt have relatively
insignificant effects on corrosion.
Q.
How does the Atlantis
system remove calcium build-up on pools?
A.
By extracting excess
hardness (calcium etc.) from the water during the electrolytic
process. This improves the feel of the water, protects the pool
equipment and saves you money.

Q. How can the Atlantis
system help with my health?
A.
It keeps your pool
water constantly sterile and healthy, automatically. No dangerous,
unhealthy periods of high or low chlorine levels and no dangerous
"chloramines" or chlorine compounds of any kind.
Q.
Why is it good for my skin and hair.
A.
Ladies know the benefits of salt treatments for the skin, the mild
salinity of the water does not have a "drying" effect on the skin
(as does more salty sea water) and does not turn blond or gray hair
green.
