TITLE
Therapy Pool Salt-Water System Installation
SUM MARY
The Parks and Recreation Department has recently installed a saltwater chlorine
sanitizing system at the Winter Springs Therapy Pool to ensure clean and safe
water for the therapy pool users. The system uses saltwater to ensure sanitized
water and includes many quality-monitoring features and automatic self-cleaning
to maximize the lifespan of the device.
The system uses a process known as electrolysis to produce chlorine from a low-
concentration of salt added to the pool water. This process eliminates harmful
substances, and after the chlorine reverts to salt. The system reuses the salt, and
the process repeats. This system is projected to save the City an estimated 20-30%
in annual therapy pool maintenance costs.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends the City Commission receive and review the information.
