What is the difference between bottled chlorine and chlorine generated by the FreshWater® Salt System?

Like bottled chlorine, the chlorine generated by the FreshWater Salt System is sodium hypochlorite. However, bottled (dry) chlorine contains stabilisers like Cyanuric acid.

When stabilised chlorine is repeatedly added to spa water, the Cyanuric acid can accumulate over time and cause the irritation to the skin and eyes typically associated with traditional chlorine water care.

With the FreshWater® Salt System there are no stabilising acids added to the water – so the water is softer and more enjoyable.
