i should add that my wife has sensitive skin (eczema) and is concerned that high chlorine levels will affect her negatively... Please help me not mess this up or she won't trust me to take care of the pool myself lol. She's already concerned i chose not to consult with the local pool stores
Hi there
So, I have psoriasis, that is way worse than eczema.. I actually changed from Bromine to chlorine because the bromine was making my skin worse.. (this was in my hot tub)
Fast forward 2 years and I live eat and breath TFP.. I do have a salt water generator and the salt really helps my skin, it's like natural tears.. I started adding salt to my hot tub also once I switched to bleach/liquid chlorine and that really helped and then switched it to a SWG..
My favorite thing to do for people that have concerns is a test, this is an easy test though..
Run a warm bath, about 50 gallons..
add 1 tablespoon of bleach
add 1/2 cup salt
This is a SWG chlorine pool at about 1.5ppm chlorine and 3500 ppm salt
See if it bothers her
You don't have to have salt or a SWG, just letting you know what helps me, also you can have salt water without a generator..
Let us know, I bet it will help
