Why Salt Water?
You may or may not know that our main pool at Club Northwest is salt water! This system has many benefits. With a salt water system, there is no need for us to add chlorine and harsh chemicals to the pool water, which increases swimmers’ comfort and is very gentle on the skin. You may even notice a “soft” feel to the water. You won’t notice a salty taste to the water like the ocean has either.
The ocean has 20,000 parts per million of salt and a salt water pool system is only 3,000 parts per million. Also, the salt system actually produces chlorine in a natural way to keep the pool fresh and clean. Lastly, having a salt water pool and not treating the water with chemicals enforces our commitment to being a “green” athletic club and wellness center and helps the environment! Jump in…the water’s great!
